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 KingdomThe car valet service is 100% needed if you are driving. On the day we arrived, there was road works right by the hotel which made it really stressful to get there as Florence city centre is a nightmare to drive through and our GPS had no idea what was going on! It might be easier to have a car valet a bit outside Florence where you can leave the car and then have someone drive you up the hotel instead.
Hotel is in great location, right by the Duomo cathedral. The staff was super helpful, a shout out to Ovidio who spent time going through a map of the city and giving us recommendations on where to go, eat and drink. The room was lovely and had everything you need. Loved the art around the hotel. Breakfast was delicious and the check out great as they let us keep our luggage while we explored the city before we left.

IcelandFlorence is a very loud city due to the cobble stone streets. I could not have a open window at night because of the noise.
Very attentive staff and friendly. The design of the hotel is adorable and a very good eye for detail and high end finish. The location is at a corner of a bustling street but very few cars. Very small and cosy and only 3 rooms at each floor.

TurkeyAn area for improvement is definitely the soundproofing of the rooms and windows. During my January stay, the streets were mostly empty at night, yet occasional noises like, shouting passersby, or a car alarm at 5 AM (as well as loud neighbours at the hotel) were quite audible. I had to use earplugs.
I recently stayed at the Glimpse Hotel in Florence and had a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The Superior King Room was beautifully decorated, and the bed was exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a restful stay. The bathtub provided a relaxing retreat in the evenings. The staff at both the reception and the bar were incredibly nice and helpful, which I believe is the hotel’s standout feature. I would like to extend special thanks to Alina and Carlos for their kindness and support during my stay. Despite a minor incident on the first night that affected my rest, the staff’s attentiveness ensured my three-day stay was pleasant. The reception area, though small, is cozy and serves as a nice spot to enjoy a drink before heading out or upon returning. The hotel’s location is exceptional—close to major attractions and within walking distance of nearly anywhere in town. Additionally, there’s a nearby pharmacy and a convenient laundry service store, which I used and found preferable compared to the hotel’s offered rates. The pre-set breakfast options were fine and sufficient for me; however, I believe a small yet high-quality buffet could be more preferable. The bakery products are incredible, compliments to the pastry chef! It was a pleasant stay and I loved Florence. I definitely would love to visit Glimpse again.

ItalyNothing really.
My room and bathroom were gorgeous! Very spacious, clean and simply beautiful. The staff was extremely nice: professional, courteous and understanding. I had a light, delicious dinner (there’s only a bar, but it was perfect for me — I had travelled from far and it was pouring rain, I just wanted to grab a bite to eat and go to bed.). Breakfast was delicious too!

SwitzerlandWhat was really good: the staff was super helpful, professional and friendly. Welcome dring, gift and gentle music playing in the room when checking in felt really nice. The location is superb: 5 minutes from Duomo, 2 minutes from Accademia Gallery. And since the old town is compact, you are literally near almost everything. I liked the size of the room and the room itself looked super nice, everything was super clean. Breakfast was great. Small terrace outdoor with glimpse of Duomo. Tiny comment USB and USBc sockets in the room would be really really handy :)
