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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 KingdomThe pool bar didn’t always have a member of staff on it so sometimes you had to go and find a member of staff. The food menu for the pool bar was limited but everything on it tasted really good, we didn’t know until towards the end of our stay that you could also order from the room service menu for the pool bar and also French fries and ice cream were available but not advertised as such. The evening restaurant didn’t have loads of choice and was quite expensive, not somewhere we wanted to eat every night but nice for 1 or 2 nights.
The staff/service was amazing, really nice people and nothing was a problem! Always there to help. The breakfast was fab, so much choice include amazing Nutella croissants! The pool area was really nice and clean and the rooms was fab! Great size & super comfortable! The gym was small but well equipped. We would definitely return it was the perfect start to our honeymoon! 4+++*

NorwayNot to well kept, and we had ants and other insects in our room. The room was super dark, since it only had two windows. The pool area felt small. Wish we could use the roof top, but it was exclusive for one room.
Lush garden, amazing food, lovely atmosphere. Loved our bathroom.

The staff were super friendly (especially the restaurant staff). They even hugged us on the final morning when we left. The food was superb, the variety and portions amazing. The room was well fitted out, great bathroom, huge bed. Lots of spaces to relax and unwind and not feel like you are staying at a big crowded hotel. Can’t fault the facilities. Felt so relaxed at the Donna Camela

BelgiumBreakfast selection was almost all sweets. On day two, we did find some darker breads and cold cuts on the buffet. With the luxury comes a certain clientel, whose Mercedes limo driver thinks they can cut you off and make you wait because you only drive a little rental Audi. But this is not the property’s doing of course. Except for the view of Etna, you do feel a little bit locked in at the pool area. No sea view or wide landscapes.
This property exudes luxury and refinement. It is nicely located with a beautiful garden surrounding it. Everything is well maintained and functional. The staff is very friendly, fluent in English and ready to help. The room and bathroom were very sizeable and comfortable.

United KingdomThe location is a bit out of the way, but it has the advantage that you don’t have to fight your way out of a built-up area to get to where you want to go. A good base for exploring Mt Etna. Used the pool, but to be honest in April it was still too cool to stay in for long.

GermanyIf one would want to complain at all, one could mention that the current restaurant concept is too “limited” as it only provides super “Michelin-Star” like food, but does not offer a normal lunch and dinner menue.
Although embedded in an area almost “offroad” and with railroad nearby, this is a nice hotel in a Lovely surrounding in the middle of a tree nursery, green with of a bunch of plants and palm trees and flowers, a nice boutique style hotel. Interesting architecture, friendly staff. The separate suites are quite Bauhaus style and may be a little too uncharming, even if they have their own jacuzzi (which was quite cool)

United KingdomEverything was amazing.
I really recommend for a couple who loves gourmet experiences and want to relax in a quiet and beautiful view of Etna and the Sea Coast at the same time, especially if you want to be away of the crowded city. I really enjoyed the experience and the food was superb. Breakfast as well was really outstanding.
