Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

The rooms were very comfortable. The bathroom, modern and spacious. The entrance to the building and the elevator reminded us that we are in a very old city. This is not necessarily bad. On the contrary. It stresses the point that the hotel itself is in excellent condition and that the facilities have been very well taken care of. As for the staff, from the moment we walked out of the elevator, Cristiano was there to greet us warmly. Leonardo went out of his way to fulfill a request of mine. Fiorella prepared a delicious coffee for us. Fatwua was very kind at the breakfast bar. We felt very well treated by the whole staff. It is a place that I will recommend for its location and comfort, but specially for the staff.

Thanks to Cristiano and team for their world class hospitality. Very good location , SMN is only 100 m away. Near to Duomo and one can get all amenities as required within 50 M radius. Fully secured and much better than many of the 5 stars worldwide. Definitely recommend to everyone. Thanks and Best wishes to “ Alinari team”: Manash and family.

The hotel safe is not attached and lightweight - so it is easy to carry. No Wifi info in the room
The location is absolutely perfect for access to the train station SM Novella and the T.2 tram to the airport. There is a bar next door open early and late and the hotel team is extremely helpful, provided me with water without fussing around of charging me for it and provided coffee when I had to leave before breakfast started. The day shift concerige greeted m walkin in to the building when I left.

The coffee pot didn't work in our room and the AC kept shutting off, however, I'm sure if we had told the staff they would have handled it swiftly.

There was some construction going on in the building/ near the building. They started a bit earlier in the day than we'd be up. And there was some street noise in the morning as well. We brought earplugs with us, so we slept without any problems after using them.
The staff was amazing. The breakfast was spectacular: it was a massive spread daily. The room was clean. The hotel was near the main sights. Would highly recommend this place.

Everything was excellent from beginning to end. I traveled with my mother. The room was very comfortable, everything clean and cozy. Cristiano was very attentive with both of us, taking care of everything we need. The breakfast was one of the best in my life. It was very complete: different kind of croissants, all of them very delicious, bread, every kind of fruit, yogurt, etc. Coffee, omelette and other kind of fruits are served by waitress. Everything was very very tasty. The location is great, a few minutes away from the train station and walking distance to the main attractions. WiFi was very fast, I needed it for work. I could also work in the dining room where the connection is even faster.

Everything was perfect. The room was perfect- clean, lovely large modern bathroom, even had a view over the bell tower and cathedral. Location was perfect- 2 minutes walk from the railway station and only 10 minutes walk to the historical heart of this city. The best thing though, was the wonderful staff. Cristiano went above and beyond to make sure our stay was fantastic. The breakfast was truly exceptional. I could not recommend this hotel more highly.

The twin room that we booked was actually a double room with a camp bed added so it made the space in the room a bit tight. The tiled floors meant that there was a lot of internal noise when people were coming and going early in the morning and the cleaning staff were at work.
The location is great - beside the train station and a short (<10 min) walk from all of the tourist attractions. It’s spotlessly clean and the shower was powerful and hot. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful with any queries and the breakfast, even though it wasn’t included in the price we chose, was great.
