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.).

SwedenOur stay was outstanding in every way! The accommodation exceeded expectations, and we couldn't be happier. Everything was perfect - from cleanliness and convenience to communication with the host. I give my stay a 10/10 and highly recommend to anyone looking for a fantastic place to stay in Palermo. The place was truly beyond what we expected in an extremely positive way. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!"

United StatesIt was on a busy street and a bit complicated to get to by car or to find parking near by, but you really shouldn’t try to drive into Palermo anyway.
The property was spacious with great amenities and high end finishes. There is a washer and DRYER! He provides snacks and some wine plus vouchers for a nearby cafe.

United StatesLoved it all
Safe, gorgeous, extremely clean and a fabulous place to stay. Close to city center but on a peaceful block and noise was not an issue at all. Salvatore was excellent to communicate with before and during our stay. Loved the balcony where excellent Sicilian wine was enjoyed every evening. Extremely comfortable for our party of 4. We did not use the breakfast vouchers because eating breakfast in the apartment was so delightful. Everything that we possibly could need was provided. Would definitely want to stay here again if we return to Palermo. An absolutely special find and an excellent value!

United StatesThink about the Ritz Hotel in London or Paris. What comes to mind? Class, elegance, luxury, comfort, service, style. Palermo does not have a Ritz Hotel but “Le Rose di Nonna Maria” might be as close as you can get to it, at a very competitive and affordable price. My family and I (two couples) stayed here for four nights recently and we had high expectations based on the listing and its images, but the experience was even better than we expected. Salvatore, the host, was very communicative and helpful as we made our reservation and helped with several aspects of our planning. We were met at the 4th-floor apartment by his assistant who gave us a thorough tour of the apartment and many of its features and gave us an overview of nearby locations on a map. The spacious “master” bedroom is on the main floor and the 2nd large bedroom is in a large loft above it. Although the beds were firm compared to our norm, we quickly adapted and liked them. The furniture and furnishings are classy yet functional and comfortable. Modern appliances and features throughout. Central A/C and heating which can be adjusted individually in each room. It’s all in the little details too: a bottle of Prosecco, bottled water and fresh fruit in the fridge; delicious hard Italian candies throughout; fresh pastries and a torte in the formal dining room; a desktop PC with high-speed internet and printer; a stereo system rack with LPs and cassettes for a variety of tastes; a very large TV with Netflix, Prime, etc.; complimentary custom-made cards for continental breakfast at a nearby café; plush bathrobes; umbrellas by the door in case it is raining and you need one; a washer AND dryer (highly unusual in Italy and other Mediterranean countries) for your clothes. Excellent location on a relatively quiet residential street: 10-minute walk to Teatro Massimo and the Capo Market and 20-minute walk to the Cathedral. Superb apartment with a superb host. Grazie to “Nonna Maria” and grazie, Salvatore!

AustraliaThe host, Salvatore, was delightful. He helped me find an English speaking physiotherapist, recommended an excellent taxi service and happily came over to ‘fix’ the hot water when we turned it off by mistake. The apartment was large and airy and very well presented. It had everything we needed for our stay including a very well equipped kitchen.

United StatesAbsolutely nothing! Salvatore and his apartment are both unparalleled in the service industry. I travel a great deal and know intimately that pictures lie! NOT TRUE HERE!! Salvatore offers more than the website indicates and he helps in any way you need, even arranging transportation to and from the airport - even offering to drive himself if we ever found ourselves in a bind. How rare is that in today's world?!?
The apartment has a fully functional kitchen; even so, Salvatore provides discounts to area coffee shops and restaurants. We lacked for nothing, and, following Salvatore's instructions, never had to question where to go. This apartment is so centrally located that we kept finding we could have walked instead of having taken a taxi or a bus. There was virtually nothing out of reach.

Everything ! Salvatore the owner was there to meet us and talk us through the apartment. He recommended restaurants and gave us discount cards. He was so helpful and so friendly and made us feel really welcome. The air conditioning was a god send- it was quiet and each room had it . The space of the apartment was unreal. The apartment was very big and beautifully furnished. It had a piano and a smart tv. Netflix tv was watched by us when we came back for a break from the scorching sun. It also had everything you could wish for in terms of cooking and eating there. The property was so clean and of a very high standard in furnishings, and crockery. Salvatore had put a welcome bottle of Prosecco in the fridge for our arrival plus fresh cherries, a home made cake and some delicious pastries which we nibbled on when we popped back for a siesta .
