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.).

United KingdomShower in the bathroom was a bit small. Everything else was perfect.
We loved our room, it's location and the aircon was a god send. The breakfasts were amazing. We loved the lawned area we could chill in by the lake and also that there was a bar service on the lawned area.

Great location in the lakefront with great castle views. The hotel was a short walk to all the restaurants and shops in the town. Marco and Emanuele were fantastic hosts, very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was fabulous, with great service. There was ample free parking on site. We liked the hotel so much we stayed an extra night and upgraded our room.

United StatesRestaurant server at the hotel; when asked what he would recommend to have for a dinner - answered “i don’t know, everything is good”. I said I will order one more meal a little bit later, but he never came back.. didn’t like his attitude, so unpleasant and unprofessional.
Located great, clean.

United StatesThe room had a strong smell of cleaner or air freshener that took a while to dissipate, but it was fine after we aired it out.
The hotel was in a fantastic location, walkable to all of Malcesince and the gondola to the top of the mountain. The hotel staff were great and the room was clean and had a great view and balcony. The breakfast bar was fantastic.

United StatesWe loved everything but if there is one item I could change it would be putting a screen door on the sliding door so we could enjoy the lake air without worrying about a fly getting in the room. BUT sitting out on the patio made us forget about having no screen :)
The hotel's advertising does not tell how great the Suite rooms really are. Great views, quite rooms, a breakfast buffet that is fit for for both the health conscience and the glutton. Very friendly staff and located on the edge of old town.

United Kingdom- The minbar in the room includes 2 bottles of water which are NOT complimentary. This was not made clear. It's standard in hotels to offer complimentary water so this was something that didn't sit right with me, and you should consider offering water as complimentary. - My room didn't include any kettle facilities to make tea/coffee, which is also standard in most hotels. Just a suggestion for you to look into to ensure a better experience for customers.
- Property has the best location in Malcesine, right next to the castle. - Breakfast was amazing - you can make your own smoothies with fresh fruit, extensive selection and fresh produce. We were previously staying at the Grand Hotel Terme in Sirmione where the breakfast was somewhat disappointing. I can tell you for sure that the Hotel Castello breakfast is wayyyyyyyyy better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Room was decent. Balcony views were gorgeous. - Staff on check in were absolutely amazing, friendly and ready to answer every question.
