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 was perfect for us, away from crowds but within a 5 minute walk to Ponte Vecchio and 10 minutes to the centre and galleries etc. We stayed in a King room...Probably the nicest room we've ever stayed in. Roll top bath, huge and incredibly comfortable bed and big windows that open onto the street. Cool, stylish and authentic. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.
Nothing!

Verified reviewI had to make a last minute pivot and find lodging for my elderly parents b/c my son was sick and my father is immune compromised. I made the reservation the same day my parents checked-in and the staff was amazing. They were so responsive, helpful, and kind. They arranged a taxi for my parents and helped them with their bags. The location was ideal for us.
This is for Florence in general, buildings and roads are not made for the elderly. My parents are mobile, but there are a lot of stairs and a tiny elevator for two 86yo people.
Dear Guest, We want thank you for the time you spent to write your comment about your stay with us and for the very nice words about our staff. Kindest regards Davide

Verified reviewVery friendly staff, brilliant location on definitely the best side of the river, cool decor.
Unfortunately our stay wasn't as good as it could have been for one silly reason and that is because our room (22) was situated so close to the breakfast area that each morning we were woken at 6:45am by the staff setting up for breakfast. This set up would last an hour and made me a bit grumpy. It would be better to set up the evening before. I do appreciate it's a small hotel but this made me quite tired for the days I was visiting Florence which was a shame.
Dear Daniel, thank you for the time you spent to write your feedback about your holiday at OS. We are sorry to learn you had this problem in the early morning, If you should have informed us during your stay probably we could have been able to give you a different room and let you experience a more comfortable stay. We will keep in mind your kind review and we will do our best to follow your suggestions to improve the quality of our service. Looking forward to welcoming you back Kindest regards Davide

Verified reviewUnfortunately I arrived extremely unwell to the hotel. Immediately the staff catered for our every need. I didn't have any energy and they managed to give us our room four hours earlier which I desperately needed in order to be able to rest as I had a high fever. They gave us breakfast when we arrived even though we were hours earlier than expected. They allowed me to rest in the lounge untill the room was ready. Every staff member that passed by would check up on me to see if I needed anything. Although my entire stay in Florence ended up being in the hotel due to my sickness, it was worth every penny spent. They even allowed a late check out by an additional 4 hours so that I wouldnt have to roam the streets with fever until our train was set to depart. We originally chose this building for its beautiful interiors but honestly besides that the highlight was the truly helpful and kind staff we found throughout our stay. 10/10 service.

Verified reviewOur room was absolutely stunning, we just loved the design of the whole place. We always had the most kind and helpful - shout out to Antonio for the restaurant reservations, he is so lovely! Really centrally located and such an oasis of calm after all the sightseeing. Breakfast great with all you could need. Would highly recommend the super cool hotel.
Noise in the road outside, but that’s not something they can control.
