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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

AustraliaCentral location is excellent! Having reception 40 steps up from street level was a major surprise and distress. This limited my potential enjoyment of Palermo. The lack of a lift must be clearly stated in the property description.

ItalyEverything was great! Only thing worth mentioning is that they have some pretty steep stairs to reach the first floor (really second floor in U.S. terms) in case mobility is an issue. And also - a little old school is you leave your key at the desk before you leave…but someone is always there to let you in whatever the hour is so…really a none issue!
Great budget accommodation in a prime location smack in the middle of Palermo’s historic city center (as in a stone’s throw from Teatro Massimo). Clean rooms with the most amazing air conditioning I’ve ever experienced traveling and living in Italy. I think family owned and operated. It’s a great option if you’re just looking for a no frills stay (especially overnight).

IrelandSimple (ie basic) family-run hotel. Small room with balcony over very lively street, best suited to younger guest, perhaps. Breakfast wasn’t great, and was taken in a cramped mezzanine area, but the hotel location is terrific, the owners/staff are friendly and obliging, and if you like dogs they have a friendly beaut whose only top happy to welcome guests.

excellent location right in the thick of Central Palermo activity. Within 15-20 mins of the hotel there are many Palermo surprises ( awesome sights). Teatro Massimo, Palatine Chapel, the harbour, St Catherine’s monastery etc. Breakfast was good to have on site, and changed a little each day.

United KingdomThe room is basic. No frills but perfect for a city break when you are spending most of your day visiting the beautiful city.
The location was perfect. we were always a stones throw from all the best sights, markets, bars and restaurants. Exceptionally clean and friendly. It was a haven from the bustle outside. The new windows blocked out the very busy street below and the beds were fresh and comfortable. Although we didn’t choose a breakfast option we were able to get a wee coffee first thing. From the balcony of our room you could see the Teatro Massimo.
