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.).

ArgentinaThe best hotel of my entire trip! I truly and sincerely recommend staying at Palazzo Persone because the friendliness of the staff, the level of attention to detail and care, and the comfort of the room make everything perfect! They even took care of my gluten-free breakfast and recommended places to eat without me having to worry about a thing!

AustraliaThe showers were crazily small - but understandable given they’ve obviously been retrofitted into a very old building. The walk from the car park with luggage was pretty long - probably 10 minutes - and there was possibly a closer car park on the other side of the town. The comfort of the rooms and friendly helpful staff definitely outweighed these negatives
Great location and extremely helpful staff who went out of their way to make bookings for us and give recommendations. The rooms were very comfortable. Checkin was easy and they prebooked parking for us.

Brilliant staff especially the owner Michael Angelo, the accommodation we stayed in still had some of the old Synagogue structures which was unbelievable. Location could not be better, we would never stay anywhere else when we come back. Loved everything!

United KingdomJust a couple of tiny things that we felt would improve the room - there was no waste paper bin in the bedroom and the basin tap sprays water onto the mirror and floor when it is turned on full. This makes the floor very slippery. It needs to be mended.
The room (Templari) was beautiful. The restoration of the property has been done sensitively and our room was very well appointed. At first we were concerned that it might be very noisy at night as it opened out directly onto the street at ground level. However, with the shutters fully closed this was not an issue and we slept soundly in the very comfortable bed. We loved the arrangement with Miro cafe for breakfast which was plentiful and delicious. Diletta was super helpful! She is very knowledgable and passionate about the history of the Palazzo and the ancient synagogue beneath it. Her english was superb and she was so welcoming with her explanation of the property and helping us with our luggage on the check out day.

United StatesWish we could have stayed longer.
First, Diletta is an exceptional host —welcoming, and and a helpful, accessible communicator. Always quick and thorough, she answered all of our pre-arrival questions, provided suggestions, and stayed late to accommodate our evening arrival. She ensured our comfort in getting settled, while also sharing the fascinating history of our “Sinogoga” quarters. We also enjoyed and learned much from Elena, during the next day’s hour of the Judeo Museo!

The property fits in with the so-rounding community. “Old City Lecce which is in the Puglia region. My room was upgraded for no reason. I had my own courtyard and room with in. Best of all it was in the center of Old City.

United StatesThe shower was very tiny, for my husband especially, but we made it work:)
The staff were so kind and welcoming. They arranged parking for us in a nearby paid lot and offered loads of information about places to eat. They also offered free tours of the Jewish Museum of Lecce, which is connected to the property. The location right next to the cathedral in a major town square was excellent; we were within walking distance to everything. We got a room upgrade and it was very clean and spacious; it all seemed renovated rather recently. The bed was also large and comfortable. The breakfast was arranged with the next door cafe/restaurant which was fine but nothing stellar. We went one morning and then explored cafes recommended by staff on the others.
