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 StatesJust know that there are only two restaurants near the hotel and at both you seem to need reservations. You are way up on the hill so you will need to make reservations or have food to make your own meals.
Beautiful view and staff was awesome. They offer a private car/driver to take you places and fees were quite fair. Also they sell wine there to have in your room and it's very good and very affordable. They offer a boxed breakfast for $10 which was good.

RomaniaJust a suggestion, if you want to eat at the restaurant near the villa, Osteria da Severino, I suggest calling or asking the staff a few days ahead as they tend to get fully booked quickly. The staff helped us with a reservation at an excellent local restaurant 15 kms away, but keep in mind that you're in the mountains so you need to be prepared for peace and quiet. Cell phone reception was inexistent in the villa itself, but the WiFi worked very well both in the rooms and outside in the garden.
The location of the villa - spectacular looks all around, peace and quiet. The rooms were good in size, large garden outside with a barbecue, 6 chairs and a large table. The staff was great, from the moment we arrived until we left. They welcomed us with a smile, explained what is there to be done nearby and helped with restaurant reservations. There is a small supermarket nearby (closed on Sunday) - 3 minutes walk - where you can buy excellent local products - meats, cheeses, drinks etc.

ItalyWe got an upgrade into a hugh villa with private garden and stunning view over the valley, fully equipped with kitchenware and a nespresso coffee machine. The place is on top of a hill, surrounded by park, perfect for relaxing 20 minutes from the city of Lucca. The decor of the villas is superb. Francesco was extremely friendly and helpful, notwithstanding the fact we arrived quite late and made him wait for us.

United StatesThe fitness center was not open before 9 am, which is very late if you like to go for some trips during the day. Also the equipment in the gym was dated and not in good condition. The parking situation was a little uncomfortable especially in the night because of the distance to the condo.
The location is amazing and the view breathtaking! Our condo was great, good equipped. The only thing missing was a microwave. The location of the pool was wonderful. Everything was great maintained.

AustraliaBeing picky here because I have to... We had the garden / lawn terrace over the pool which could have done with a mow.
Tucked away in the mountains with a spectacular view. The pool was an awesome feature for a 18 month old son. The staff were very accommodating to all our requests. It’s a 20 minute drive into town however we loved being away in a quiet and beautiful area.

United KingdomThe apartment was very warm and although the Aircon was set to 17 degrees there seemed to be underfloor heating that we couldn't turn off. We didn't ask for assistance because the reception was closed when we realised - but I'm sure we could have asked / followed up. The indoor pool and spa didn't seem to be open and while wine is available to purchase on-site it would have been nice to have additional items (the local grocery store is limited). If I were staying again I would stop at a grocery store in Lucca before driving to the accommodation. Also - the restaurant within walking distance is closed on Tuesday.
Gorgeous view, 15 mins to Lucca. Apartment has lots of space, well equipped, staff are very friendly and helpful.

United KingdomIt would have been nicer if the pool was a little bigger and a bit deeper. It was not overcrowded but a few more families and it would have been. The price was a little high, I would have preferred it to be slightly cheaper.

GermanyOur apartment is close to the main entrance (Rosamarine), so we can hear the traffic (well, as the villa is basically situated in a hill, so not that busy) and people checking in/out from our bedroom. People are required to wear swim caps to swim in the pool and we bought 2 of those. However, it seems like we are the only one who complied with this rule, we didn't see ppl wearing them and no one checked either. Inner decoration is a mix of different style of furniture. Fully equipped kitchen but there is no microwave. Bathrooms are small and lack of hooks. The internet is also shaky.
The apartment is spacious and fits a 4 heads (with older kids) family comfortably and with 2 full bathrooms with shower cabins. The location is perfect for day trips to nearby tourist attractions, e.g. Cinque Terre (1.5 hours drive), Pisa and Lucca (45 min and 20 mins respectively), Florence (1.5 hours drive). The place has a very good view of the area as it is sitting in the middle of the hill covered with olive trees. Fun or not so fun part is the drive up to the villa, typical winding and narrow roads in Italy. The outdoor pool has a view of the valley and is well equipped with umbrellas and chairs.

United KingdomDisappointed with our allocated apartment. Dark and the decor dated and lacking in character. Much closer proximity to neighbours than expected from photos and website. The surprise swim cap rule seemed to put off everyone from enjoying the pool - only bald guys and babies seemed to enter.
