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.).

I stayed at B&B Cerretani Palace for three nights, and the experience was truly exceptional. The host was absolutely amazing—respectful, helpful, and provided outstanding service. The room was large, very comfortable, and had a stunning view of the Duomo. The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of Florence and incredibly convenient. Breakfast was excellent—simple but high quality. In short: I strongly recommend this place. I’ll definitely stay here again next time I’m in Florence.

CanadaIt can be a little noisy in the morning sometimes from outside of the window. Not every room has Duomo view so just be aware of that.
Super convenient location (next to Duomo). Spacious, clean room. The staff is very helpful: welcomed us on the first day, left us chilled water in the fridge every day, and saved us some breakfast on the last day when we had to leave early in the morning. Breakfast is great and is sent to room everyday. Air conditioning is awesome and saved our lives from the 38C weather.

Everything was excellent! I’m being honest and B&B Cerretani Palace was listed in the best stay I’ve ever had in my life. All were perfect. Edoardo and his brother were very kind and super helpful. Room was exactly Iike in pictures shown. Located just right next to Il Duomo and in walkable reaches to many important places i.e. Il Palazzo Vecchio, Gil Uffizi, Bogello museum, Il Ponte Vecchio, Piazza della Repubblica, Accademia. Breakfast was great, too and had variety. You can choose what you’d Ike to eat for each morning. The bed was comfortable and large. B&B Cerratani Palace. Add my stay at Florence pleasant nd memorable.!

Everything about our stay at B&B Cerretani Palace was perfect! The location is phenomenal, we were lucky enough to have room 2, which had the best view of the duomo without doubt! Rooms and bathrooms were beautiful and perfect reflection of the city. Edoardo was the perfect host, helping where needed to organise a taxi and also offering advice of the city and restaurant recommendations. You can contact them via WhatsApp which made life so much simpler too. Breakfast was wonderful and on days we were out early we were offered a takeaway breakfast bag. There was a water fountain in the reception so we could refill our water bottles before heading out. The room had air con which helped with the July heat and despite being right above the square it was surprisingly quiet for a great nights sleep. Would recommend without a doubt. A true gem!

The property was very central, overlooking the Duomo, it was so nice to sit on the balcony, in the evening after dinner watching the world go by. Breakfast was served each morning in the room, and it was always delicious Our host was very attentive, but not intrusive. I would definitely go back and stay again

United StatesWe didn’t dislike this, but the rooms are small, so just be prepared.
You can’t beat the location!!! It was brutally hot while we were there, and it was nice to go back to our room to cool off periodically. The owner, or man we interacted with, was THE BEST! Very helpful and kind with all our questions. When we left early for a train on our last day, he offered to pack us a lunch. It’s nice to have breakfast delivered to the room every morning.

United StatesNothing. If I was super particular, an elevator would have been good, but the stairs were not hard on us.
The location is hard to beat. It was only a 10-15 minute walk from the main train station (S.M. Novella) to the B&B, and less than 50 yards from the beginning of the Florence Duomo plaza or square. The view from our balcony of the Duomo was just outstanding . The two brothers that manage the property were very kind and helpful. Twice they arranged cabs to meet us within 50 feet of the entrance. You do need to be prepared to walk up stairs to what I would say is equivalent to the 2nd or 3rd floor in the USA. When we arrived by train though, they arranged to meet is on the grand floor to assist with luggage (we traveled light though). The property only is 5 suites in a much larger, very old palace building, but this space is renovated and very nice. It felt safe because you are given a code to a strong gate at the building entrance and into the reception room on the level of the rooms. The stairs are well lit with hand railings. We easily walked to the river, Uffizi and Accademia, and other attractions. Scored of great restaurants and shopping are all around.

Our plane was late and our host stayed outside waiting for us for a bit so they could welcome us. It was so appreciated and little details like this was exceptional.
