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 StatesCan't really drive up to hotel by car, residential area, no parking. (Unfortunately on Booking.com it says parking available) However there is a good parking public parking garage very close by.
Great location, easy walk to the museums, Duomo and city. Quiet, even though it's on the corner of a big street. Big room with very high painted ceilings and a modern bathroom.. Nice breakfast in great setting. The owners were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is on the 3rd floor of an old building, but there is an elevator.

GeorgiaMy wife didn't like that there's not two big blankets, but one big one for two persons. We got additional blankets, but these didn't really solve the problem. Walking distance is 25 - 30 minutes to the center. So it's around the center of Florence, but not in the heart of it.
I liked the old bourgeois charme, the amazing lift, the ambiente, the style, and the big size. We loved the owners Greta and Guiseppe. Sometimes, I felt like in a movie, so stylish it is.

NetherlandsNot really hotel's problem, but there is a lot of mosquito's, so don't keep the windows open for too long (we learnt this the hard way).
Very small hotel in a broad center of Florence - just far to be away from the biggest crowds, but still 15 min away from Duomo. The staff is amazing and friendly, though because of its small size, the hotel does not offer anonymity afforded by large chains. Room was functional and well-appointed. We visited in November, and the heating worked (probably too) well - the room was really warm. Wifi worked well, though not always fast enough to support videocalling. The breakfast is very Italian - rather simple, but satisfying.

Canadanot much negative, just a bit out dated in furniture but that’s Italy! Wifi could be slow at times.
Very cute property, vintage looking but still very clean. Breakfast was actually quite good (boiled eggs, croissants, toast& cold cuts) staff was amazing! it’s a very small hotel, but walking distance to everything! AC was strong.

Extremely clean rooms. We had two deluxe rooms that had beautiful 19th century frescoes on the ceiling. The mattresses were very comfortable and the bedding was first rate Italian quality. The breakfast was quite good and the dining room was comfortable and nicely decorated. The family that owns and runs the hotel are two of the nicest people you could meet. The hotel is located within the old city, but far enough away from the Duomo to be free of the tourist horde.

United KingdomNothing comes to mind. The owners were helpful and it's good to support an independent hotel. Good location as it was quite and full of locals. Lots of amenities nearby, with a new tram link on its way.
oh my, what a room. Amazing fresco ceiling in my room and in the breakfast room. High ceilings and so spacious. Everything was superb. Breakfast included hard boiled eggs, and a great selection of pastries, breads, juices, fruit, etc. Great to have a lift, albeit small and quirky! Turn left out of the street door to see the amazing centre of Florence beckoning you in. Nice & quite location, and there'll be a tram stop nearby soon, which will make a change frpm walking. BTW the tram is super easy to use - I used it from the airport for under Euros 2.

DenmarkAs what the owners said, they only have 7 rooms, so don't expect a full hotel service, whic is contrary to the name Hotel Firenze Capitale. Also, the room could have been vacuumed more regularly.
The room is beautiful and decorated with frescos. The building is also clean and well located.

United KingdomWe were initially put off by the entrance to the hotel as it's on the 2nd floor and the hallway that you go through to the lift or stairs was rather cavernous and uninviting. However these thoughts were completely dispelled when we reached the reception where we got a very friendly greeting from the owner.
Very pleasant and helpful staff who spoke very good English. Spacious, comfortable bedroom which was exceptionally well decorated. Bathroom excellent. Nice breakfast. Lift to hotel which was on the 2nd floor. Allowed to leave our luggage after checkout for a few hours before we were due to catch our train.
