Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

FranceExperience was great but probably should have made a bit more research or maybe read the comments: my friend had a 20kg luggage and it was tough since there were no elevators. And I booked the highest room to have the rooftop which was pointless because we didn’t take the time to enjoy it before checking out at 1030am. Location was amazing

FranceYes the stairs will be a challenge if you are physically not at your prime, but this is Venice (not many elevator options here) and nothing that two 40 something with carry-ons could not manage. A tad disappointed that the beautiful terrace in the photo is actually private (only available if you book the right room). The beds could be a tad more comfortable (but we never found a single comfortable bed in the 5 times we came to Venice, so that might be a local thing). All in in all, nothing that can balance the massive plus of the location, staff and overall decency of the hotel, especially at that price.
Really happily surprised by this hotel ! The location is absolutely prime (can't be more central than that), and my biggest worry (the noise) was quickly dismissed. The rooms are really well insulated, and also you do get woken-up in the morning by the bells of San Marco... I mean come on, it is magical (I can't even list that in the downsides). The one thing for me that set it aside was the service. The staff was absolutely adorable, smiley, helpful, patient... honestly, bravo. The luggage storage was a big plus, especially for a one star hotel, and getting in and out even at odd hours was a breeze... and trust me, with a location like that you will. It is so central we had no problem going back to the hotel during our visits to change, drop a bag, or pick-up an umbrella. This is a major plus for this hotel.

AustraliaIt's hard to say we didn't like it because Venice is a 1000 year-old city. Just be aware that the rooms are on the 3rd or 4th floors with no lift. You will need to haul your bags up and down narrow staircases. Like I said not a criticism but something to be aware of.
The location just behind St Marks is very handy to just about everything.

TurkeyThere is no elevator.
The hotel's location was excellent. Although there is no elevator, the gentleman from the hotel staff carried our luggage to our room and allowed us to check in early. He also provided very helpful information about places to visit. We stayed for one night, but if I visit Venice again, I would definitely choose this place.

United StatesSTAIRS! Do not discount the stairs and stair comments! If you have a room on the top floor it’s 4 flights of steep stairs. This is a serious workout with or without a suitcase. There is no lift. The hotel plainly states this, but in our fervor to book such a great location, we did not pay good attention to the stair comments and it was definitely a factor!
The location is perfect! So close to San Marco and Rialto Bridge. Easy to get a water bus, get to great shopping and delicious food. Property was simple and clean. Manager was helpful , kind and has perfect English. Check in was easy and communication was excellent.

There are no elevators so be ready to take your carryon up the stairs. Deborah at the front desk was very helpful. Great 15% breakfast discount at E. Rosa Salva bakery.

FinlandThe hotel location is unbeatable, surrounded by nice restaurants and cafes and literally a 5-min walk away from the St Marco plaza and all the exotic beauties that come with it [I recommend traveling lightly for the sake of cobblestone alleys and bridges and the many stairs in the hotel]. The room and bathroom were extremely clean and the bed was comfortable, and you could find lovely delicacies and a guidebook of Venice in the room. More importantly, Deborah and Elvis went out of their ways to recommend places and routes to visit for a day of sightseeing and for telling me about a direct ferry to the airport that did not show up on Google maps!
