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 reviewLocation Views Clean The staff were incredibly helpful, especially Jude who was amazing when we were experiencing some difficulties with our onward stay (which had been abruptly cancelled). They found us another room for an extra night, with the best view in the hotel. The hotel staff really cared and Jude moved in other beds so my 2 children could sleep comfortably. We initially stayed in the quadruple room, which was massive!! We felt like we were staying with family. Lovely location and nice and quiet. Valet parking was a nice touch, although a little expensive….but was welcomed after a long hot drive. Some of the breakfast was good and the manual Gaggia coffee machine was a nice touch. Easy access to the main sites and village square, but also in a quiet spot. There was a launderette near by if you are travelling as we were. Lovely restaurants close by and picture postcard views around every corner. Would stay again.
The quadruple room was too big, was too much like a school hall, although the room we moved into was much better. The wine left in the room, is a bit misleading. It seems free, with a bottle opener, but the price list says otherwise. AC in the second room was a little weak, although the quadruple room had excellent AC. Not enough fresh fruit at breakfast, not a great choice and cereals weren’t replaced unless you asked. However, overall was not as bad as we had in some places. We thought valet parking was €25, but it was €25 per night, so this misunderstanding left us €25 lighter ! These are small points, as we did enjoy our stay. However, these improvements would make this a flawless stay.

Verified reviewThis is a lovely hotel in Orvieto that I will not hesitate to stay at again in the future. The staff are friendly and attentive. The actual accommodation is very good and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was modern and to a very good standard. Location is excellent!
Although there was nothing that I didn’t like as such I do feel that breakfast could have been a little better. That would then put this hotel in the exceptional category! Breakfast was good but my recommendation would be to have more variety in the Italian specialities such as their dolce and boiled eggs or even better freshly fried eggs! I don’t believe that this is a huge request but I believe a good suggestion as I have said earlier, I will be staying here again.

Verified reviewThe hotel is a really good choice if you want to stay in Orvieto. It is located in a great spot and is walkable to all of the main sites and great restaurants. I loved wandering the streets of this town, getting lost in alleyways while sipping espresso. And, this was a great hotel to wind back to. We were particularly thankful for its close proximity to the easy to use coin laundry which we used to refresh everyone’s clothes mid-vacation. While I originally reserved two rooms through Booking because a party of five defaulted to that requirement, upon arrival, I saw the size of the family room in the annex building that made up one of the two—it was huge! Two large beds and a single. The hotel was kind enough to let me cancel the other room and even refunded the cancellation fee! Just wonderful and thoughtful customer service. Then there is Jude, the do-everything guy at the hotel. He valeted my car, helped with bags, showed us to our room, worked the breakfast, etc., etc. While I didn’t catch her name, the woman who also assisted with breakfast was very nice and personable and knowledgeable of the town. For Orvieto, this is a great choice.
Air conditioning issues were a constant theme of our trip at numerous stops. Here, our room had two a/c units; one of which worked perfectly, and a second that could use a service. It worked, but it could be better. I would still happily stay again regardless.

Verified reviewGood size room. I had to use 3 different keys to get into the room, which is a refreshing change from simply using key card. Decent breakfast, helpful stuff. My room was inside an old tower with a gorgeous view of some garden and the red rooftops.
Figuring out all the light switches in a room was a challenge. Accidentally turning on a jacuzzi, I could not not figure out how to turn it off. When I called the reception, no one picked up the phone, as it was past 11PM. I figured it out, eventually. Also, as my room was inside an old tower, the number of electrical outlets was minimal.
