How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Happy hour everyday with snacks included + the complimentary drinks (beer/soda) was way more than can be expected. The ambiance and rooms were great. We were a large group there for a wedding party, staff was welcoming no matter what hour of the day we came home. Felt like way more than what can be expected! Will be back, for sure!

Verified reviewAmazing, incredibely nice staff. I can't say enough good of them. Cool happy hour with drinks and snacks- perfect to decompress after hours of sightseeing. We enjoyed the room and its decorstions, but the real highlights were the views. From our private terrace we could see the Michelangelo hill with picteresque Toscan houses and gardens, as well as the Duomo dome and the tower. Being able to rest on the terrace and relax with such views after a long day was really a highlight of the trip
Walls are paper thin and we could hear our neighbours bathing, talking and doing other things at night. We got woken up multiple times just by water pouring in their bathroom. The bed felt weirdly short (we are both average height)

Verified reviewThe stay was wonderful. The hotel was in walking distance (if you love walking) to the Duomo and great restaurants. The staff was very helpful and welcoming. Our room was quiet and well furnished with a good sized bathroom. Each night there was a happy hour with light food. Now, to the breakfast. Marcella was in charge of that. She was wonderful as was the generous breakfast. My daughter and I loved our 3 nights there and hated to leave.

Verified reviewThis hotel is indeed very comfortable and friendly. The rooms are immaculate and way nicer and bigger than they seem online. Especially the front room with the balcony (15) was beautiful with a huge bathroom and super high ceilings! The bath products smell incredible. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the Happy Hour and free drinks throughout the day a great perk.
We didn’t really like the breakfast. The food is just okay, nothing special, but the setting is a bit awkward and the area not very nice. On top of that, one has to know that the hotel is surrounded by big streets and very close to a major intersection. It is well isolated and tries to block itself away from it, but it still is not the most quaint surrounding and you will notice street noises. The location is also just ok and you are rather dependent on (very convenient) busses if it is summer and way too hot to walk all the way to the centre. Certain guests and the general clientele were a bit annoying, but that is nothing the hotel can do anything about :-)
Dear Guest, thank you very much for your detailed and honest review. We’re delighted to hear that you found the hotel comfortable and friendly, and that you especially enjoyed the spacious rooms, the balcony with high ceilings, our bath products, and the complimentary drinks and happy hour. We also sincerely appreciate your constructive feedback. We’re sorry to read that breakfast and its setting did not fully meet your expectations — your comments are valuable and will help us to improve this service. Regarding the location and street noise, we understand that this can sometimes be felt despite our efforts with insulation and the garden to create a quiet oasis.

I would give it a 10 if they had better pillows. Softer, non synthetic would make the room perfect.

Verified reviewThe location is perfect for walking all the must see sites in Florence. It's near restaurants, supermarket en next to Piazza Michelango (the hill). Hotel was beautiful, staff super kind and we got so many free things (happy hour, 3 free drinks a day to take with you, gift at checkout). Breakfast is amazing too, and I always make sure to stay at Booking.com 9+ rated places. And all this for a very affordable price. If you are staying in Florence, you'd be crazy not to stay here if you happen to be able to book it. 10 out of 10.

Verified reviewThis is exceptional place in every respect. We travel a lot and with full responsibility I can say that such places are a real rarity. This is not a cold typical hotel that dominates the market, this is a family but very professionally run hotel with soul and exceptional style. No less important, although they exude a vintage style, they are not stuck in the past, their environmental awareness is exceptional and the staff is the kindest I have ever seen. Free parking, drinks and food at afternoon, coffee and water refill (regular and mineral), all complimentary. I do not understand how anyone can complain about anythings in this hotel. Thank you for reminding us that the hotel industry is not only hotel chains but that accommodation can also look like this. Thank you for your dedication to us, the guests.
