Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomRooms were described as sound proof but were far from it, our room had a bar right outside our window which was open until very late, I can accept that it is difficult to sound proof windows but we could also hear every conversation from the room next to us, we could even tell when someone new had checked in because of the language change. The roof terrace is a great place to get views of the city and even mount etna but is barren and neglected, would be a great place for an evening bar.
Staff were very friendly and helpful when looking for excursions to go on, rooms were very clean and tidied every day. Breakfast had plenty of options and everything tasted great. Good value for money aswell.

Switzerlandfirst of all they listed the suite (with the gallery on top) for 3 Persons, we checked-in at midnight and we were three persons and only one double bed. So they had to give us an extra room which was very small. After that night they gave us a bigger room for the third person but still not acceptable when you pay 1.300 Euro for 4 Nights and you don't get the room on the photos and not even a room with the same places to sleep.
The Hotel is very central. Perfect stay for people who want to visit Catania.

AustriaNote: This has nothing to do with the hotel, but with booking.com taxi transfer! Due to connecting flight problems we had a delay of 8 hours. From the transfer airport I asked "customer" "service" to change our pick up time. They told me I should have informed them 24 hours IN ADVANCE !?! No refund possible!
Great location, all sights and many restaurants within walking distance. Except for rush hour, not much traffic noise. Helpful at reception. Hotel nicely decorated, room (superior) and bathroom spacious. Comfortable beds, good lighting. Not much variety at breakfast, but of good quality. Bar nice, but out of service due to season. Otherwise a great place to be around February 3 - ceremonies for local saint Agatha!
