Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomCould be noisy as can hear people and TV in surrounding flats and the noise of water flushing . It didn't bother us that much. It would have been good to have some basic washing up supplies as it's hard to find anywhere to buy these things in the small town. There are limited and expensive food shopping options if you don't have a car.
Brilliant location close to ferry and train station. Fantastic host. Anna was very responsive and helpful and a joy to engage with. She waited for us in the rain to check us in. The place was very clean. Sofa bed was very comfortable. Plenty of sockets. Amazing views over the lake and set back from the road so not too much road noise.

We loved everything about the unit, spacious, great a/c, great little outside rear patio, great view to water, able to open windows for nice breeze, full kitchen - fridge to store drinks and leftovers to reheat. Perfect location short walk down from train stop. easy enough to get back up for train or train restaurant. So easy to cross road to waterfront / restaurants/ stroll along waterfront / ferry. great communication and questions answered by just Anna. She has a private driver, Andrea who is available and reliable as taxis were hard to come by. Perfect for family of 4 (2 adults / 2 kids) have to go through master bedroom to get to bathroom.

United StatesMy only complaint was that the window covering on the bedroom window was sheer, so there was no way to block out the morning sunshine. The window was protected from view by a small walled patio, so privacy wasn't the issue, just the daylight!
Spacious apartment with a fabulous location, easily walkable to the ferry terminal and train station. On the main street through Varenna just back from the water, but with a view. Lots of space, working kitchen and good value per night for pricey Lake Como. Hosts left a nice goody basket with snacks, some bottle water and a surprisingly decent bottle of Prosecco which we really enjoyed!

Beautiful view from the living room and close walking distance to everything. Comfortable apartment for family of 4 with the girls sharing the sofa bed. Only thing is the bathroom is accessed through the bedroom We loved our stay in Varenna. Highly recommended. Thanks Anna!

United StatesA map to apartment would have helped. We overshot the building as we didn’t see the street name anywhere. We had arrived by bus because of a detour and were not sure where the train station was. The photos were very helpful once we realized we had to backtrack. Upstairs (hard to tell where exactly) neighbors were noisy late at night but they may have been renting as well.
Location was terrific for visiting local restaurants and the ferry dock. Small market on the corner. Anna was great informing us of a detour necessary for the train arrival. She also checked in via the website with us to make sure all was well and if we needed anything. Lovely basket of some breakfast items. Kitchen was well stocked with plates, cups etc. lots of storage in bedroom. Large bathroom, good shower, nice towels, and big sink with shelving to put our toiletries on. She provided little soap samples. Nice view out the living room window of the lake. There was city information in the apartment for us. I would recommend the area. Not as congested with tourists as some of the others and a quick hop on a ferry to visit other cities. You can purchase a mid-lake day pass and get on and off the ferry as much as you want . Purchase tickets early as the line gets long later in the morning.

AustraliaLocation was super. Little extras were great such as bathroom and kitchen supplies. Very nice to find a bottle of Spumante for us in the fridge. Very close by mini mart had all the self catering items we needed. Relaxing view across to the lake and could open all the windows on the lake side to enjoy beautiful fresh air. Short walk to the train station.

ThailandThe location is very close to the pier and Varenna is easy to get a ferry to cross to other villages. Room is so big and clean, nice view. Host is so nice, she always gave us many useful informations and met us upon check in to hand the key, room orientation and explain around the area. Varenna is a perfect place to stay, just like a dream village. Me and my friends had a wonderful time here.
