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 reviewNiccoló was a fantastic host – very helpful and provided us with great recommendations for restaurants and places to visit in the area, which we truly appreciated. The surroundings were incredibly beautiful, and we really enjoyed the view.
Unfortunately, the facilities did not quite meet our expectations. The bed was uncomfortable (missing top mattress?), the room was cold, the blankets were too thin, and we were bothered by mosquitoes. The pool was not prepared for use during our stay, and the breakfast and coffee could have been of better quality – we would have appreciated a menu to choose our own breakfast items. Another thing to be aware of is that payment was only possible in cash or via bank transfer, which we were not informed about until check-out. This meant we had to drive into town to withdraw cash. There is great potential here if the facilities are updated – as mentioned, Niccoló was truly wonderful.

Verified reviewStunning setting amongst the vinyards of Chianti. Charming building and gardens. Fantastic breakfast. All the positives outweighed the negatives.
Toilet seat loose. Air-conditioning didn't really cool much. No bottled water in fridge. Wasn't told about the WiFi and no information in the room, our fault for not asking.. No fly screens on windows.

Verified reviewThe breakfast was delightful although a little longer to arrive to us than we thought. The overall experience was superb and the location fantastic.
The swimming pool was freezing and full of debris and dead flies. The cleaning machine was still in the pool which could easily have been removed by staff but they were lovely.

Verified reviewBreakfast was served at the beautiful garden. You can smell flowers everywhere in the yard. There are tables and chairs facing the vineyards and a distant view of Castellina town. We had a wonderful memorable 2 nights. There's a wine tasting villa just 200m away from our Accommodation. I highly recommended visiting the wine tasting villa while staying at Podere Palazeo.
A better room overlooking the vineyards. Unfortunately, we booked the room facing the parking yard.

Verified reviewNiccolo was delightful. Best service we have experienced in Tuscany. Lovely traditional house. Breakfast on the terrace was great. Pool was lovely.
While decor was pretty, our bed was a bit tired. The wooden frame fell apart at one end with a nudge in the night from someone over 6 foot tall.

Verified reviewGreat rooms, beautiful views. Super nice breakfast was all well arranged. The location is perfect, you are close to several large wineries and also for dinner there are many nice and tasty restaurants at a short distance. There was a mistake made by me about the payment but that is fortunately all well solved. I would definitely book here again and absolutely recommend this to friends and family! Thank you so much for our great stay and thank you for everything!
everything was just perfect!
