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...).

United KingdomBreakfast room was small and full on our first morning so gave it a miss as plenty of establishments in the vicinity which do a great breakfast, did us favour really! Chose the wrong time of year to book as big conference was on and which affected room rates, many hotels do this not a criticism of Albergo delle Drapperie specifically.
Superb location, turn left right and bars and restaurants all around. Plenty of storage in our room to hang clothes. Despite comment about avoiding conferences this is not the hotels fault but it can make a big difference on the room rate so worth looking at different dates if you have flexibility. We look around the neighbourhood at other hotels as we walked around but this in an excellent location and would go back here.

United KingdomBreakfast room decor probably temporary undergoing refurbishment; a minor factor in an otherwise lovely stay.
Excellent location in quiet, car-free medieval city centre; hotel door opening onto street of market stalls; bird song and street sounds in the morning from a lovely room up under the roof. Lovely, helpful staff; great base for our 4 days in Bologna.

CanadaThe room was small and noisy, the bathroom was not very clean and the shower didn’t drain and overflowed all over the floor.
The breakfast was reasonable. The location was the best part. When you walk out of the hotel you head into a very cute little road lined with beautiful shops filled with flowers, produce and meats and cheeses. It looks like it’s right out of a movie!

RomaniaThe breakfast was very basic, plus we were told not to drink a beverage that was on the tables because it was not fresh and needed to be changed :|
The hotel is situated in a central location, which allows you to easily explore the city center and points of interest. It is very stylish, with boutique like decor. Good room and bathroom sizes, very clean.

LithuaniaIt is said that breakfast starts 7:30, but at that time staff only starts to prepare them and it takes about an hour. Thus, if you need to be somewhere on a specific time (catch a train, have a business meeting, etc.) and want to have breakfast early, it is possible that you will not have full breakfast.

United StatesThe bed could have been slightly more comfortable. But I think this is overshadowed by the rest of the perks of staying here.
Very last minute booking in Bologna and they accommodated everything. The location is very central to everything in Bologna. You walk out the door and you're in the center of the markets. The room is nice and cozy. 1-2 people in a queen room is a nice space. I did not eat breakfast, however it did look nice. There is an additional charge for breakfast.

United KingdomOur room on the top floor was a bit cramped and its entrance hall could do with a little TLC but we enjoyed staying there.
The perfect place from which to explore the foodie heart of Italy's food capital. Amazing food shops and stalls on the doorstep and excellent restaurants within easy walking distance. Indeed everything is within easy walking distance, including the historic towers, museums, squares. And with Bologna's wonderful covered walkways (porticos) you can happily wander around even if it's raining. Friendly and helpful staff. Camila was great!

AustraliaOur room size was on the small size but as we exploring the city most of the day, it wasn't a concern. From what I understand there were other rooms that were larger so our room may not have been atypical of what the hotel has to offer. The lift only commences from the first floor so stairs need to be negotiated from the ground to first floor. However the staff happily volunteered to carry our bags if we wished. In our case, it was not necessary.
Albergo delle Drapperie is an excellent hotel very close to a lot of historic monuments, shops and restaurants so the location was ideal for our first visit to Bologne. The front desk staff were all extremely helpful. They happily ordered taxis for us and were very responsive to any request.

United StatesThe location is above a noisy alley - the fishmonger starts prepping at 5:30 am. And the restaurants are noisy in the evening. The room was immaculate; I was just nervous about the travertine stone with holes in a shower.
The staff is excellent. Everyone is helpful and attentive and kind. We really enjoyed our stay here.
