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.).

Verified reviewThe location, the cleanliness, the breakfast, the waiters from breakfast
The twin split room is very small, facing the interior garden. The beds in twin room are quite small. When we arrived we were very dissapointed with the twin rooms and asked for an upgrade to a family suite, but the receprion supervisor tried to sell the family suite with full price. Very unfriendly attitudine, not at all oriented to the customer needs.

Verified reviewGreat hotel with fantastic personnel, even the structure is old. The staff does everything they can to make sure the guests feel comfortable. The breakfast is rich and high quality. Its location is also excellent, right by the sea port and just a few minutes from the Old City. Highly recommended😊
It would be worth adjusting the kitchen door so that the waiters don't have to hold it by hand to prevent it from slamming, thank you.

Verified reviewThe hotel's location is exceptional, right in the heart of the city, very close to both the old town and the new center. We had a corner room with a spectacular view of the port and the castle. The staff was very friendly and always ready to assist us with any request. The room was very spacious, clean, and offered an amazing view. We used the nearby parking recommended by the hotel. Everything was excellent, and I will definitely choose this hotel again for my next visit to Taranto

Verified reviewBig room with great lighting clean bed and towels. Rich breakfast but some of the fresh products were re used the next days so you could tell that they weren’t fresh anymore, and not good to eat. The staff is great, really kind. Don’t take the taxi with the hotel, the guy that they call charge a lot more than normal taxis.
The room floor wasn’t super clean I could see the dust in the angles and the last night the a/c started dropping water for no reason. Also the sink was a little unattached from the wall. But for the rest the room was okay
Dear Mr. Boccardo, Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We are pleased to know that you appreciated all of our services. However, we would like to clarify — in order to avoid any misunderstandings for future readers — that the products served at our breakfast buffet are replaced daily, and we take great pride in their quality (as confirmed by many previous reviews that praise our breakfast). As for the taxi service, we would like to specify that the hotel does not have its own taxi fleet. We simply contact local authorized taxi companies on behalf of our guests, and therefore we cannot control their fares nor be held responsible for them. In any case, we truly hope to welcome you again soon as our valued guest. Media & Communication Office

Price for 2 nights was very affordable and bonus was we were able to bring our little dog with us . The cost per nite for her was €15 and then a €30 cleaning charge after checking out .. Great value and they made us all feel so welcome over the 2 days including a welcome gift for our dogs. Breakfast included was amazing .everything tasted great and choice of various foods was fantastic. Staff from the moment we arrived to checking out were Brilliant. they even managed to get us free parking outside the hotel .or option of a secure parking with a few of course if needed.. We will definitely be coming back to stay maybe for a longer stay this time . 5 stars to this hotel and it's wonderful staff and views .

Dear Dominic, thank you so much for your wonderful review and for sharing every detail of your experience with such enthusiasm. We’re truly delighted that you appreciated our location by the pier, the breathtaking view, the warm welcome extended to your four-legged friend, and the quality of our breakfast. Every aspect you highlighted fills us with pride. We’re glad you felt the dedication of our staff, always ready to find tailored solutions and make each guest feel welcome. Regarding your comment about the shutters, we truly appreciate your suggestion. We will certainly consider the idea of adding lighter curtains in some rooms to offer an even more personalized experience, especially for those who love waking up to the morning light over the harbor. It would be a great pleasure to welcome you back—perhaps for a longer stay next time. Media & Communication Office – Hotel Europa Taranto
