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 StatesNo parking available. Paid 60 euros to park in a private lot and unable to come and go. 1st room - toilet flush caused water to expel out into floor. Shower doors had no seal so floor was completely wet after use. New room was better but shower was so small it was difficult to enter. Did not have arrangements with a walkable beach where we could rent an umbrella and lounge chairs.
Location by the cable car up to Taormina. Close to ocean. Isola Bella. Restaurants and markets

United KingdomNothing that the hotel did wrong, but the noise from the road was loud with horns beeping and engines revving (we had a sea view room). Clearer instructions / directions needed for the car park. We ended up using the underground parking for €30 for less than 24 hours. It's chaos outside the hotel to access the parking.
Location was excellent, rooms were clean and comfortable, staff were helpful on arrival.

United StatesIt’s outdated and didn’t feel like a 4 star hotel. The breakfast was pretty bad. Worse coffee I had the entire 1 month stay in Italy. The hotel must be on some British and German tour radar cause it was mostly them. So it didn’t feel like you were in Italy.
Nice grounds with flowers and two nice pools. Quiet and about a 10 minute stroll to the town center.

The hotel is located above a few small shops, great for snacks & drinks. Close to the cable car, which takes you up to the top. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting this area!

United StatesHard bed, leaky shower door, no space to sit comfortably in the room.
Location, just steps from the cable car to Taormina, short walk (and about 140 stairs steps) from Isolabella and several decent restaurants very close by. Our room was tight but had a lovely east-facing sunrise view of the bay with a couple of chairs on the balcony. Off-street parking at €10/day.
