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 reviewExceptional – 10/10 The room was absolutely perfect: spotless, comfortable, and beautifully designed. The staff went above and beyond, truly some of the friendliest and most helpful I’ve ever encountered. Breakfast on the rooftop terrace was also an absolute highlight. The location couldn’t be better: central yet peaceful, with everything within walking distance. For evenings, there’s a fantastic cocktail bar just around the corner (La Buvette) for aperitivo, and the staff provided excellent restaurant recommendations that made our stay even more memorable (highly recommend Rosciolo Salumeria and Hosteria Grappolo D’Oro). A boutique hotel at its very best – can’t wait to return!

Verified reviewWe arrived at the hotel late at night and were warmly welcomed by a wonderful receptionist. Despite the late hour, she patiently explained everything about the room, accompanied us upstairs, and made sure we felt comfortable right from the start. We even received a complimentary room upgrade, which was such a nice surprise. The room itself was of the highest standard – spotlessly clean, with high-quality soaps and shampoos, a unique and stylish glass sink we’ve never seen in any other hotel, and an incredibly comfortable, spacious bed. Honestly, it was the best sleep we’ve ever had in a hotel – we slept like babies. Breakfast was simply dreamy – delicious, varied, and beautifully prepared. You can really feel the chef’s talent and dedication. Overall, a perfect hotel experience in every way. Thank you to the amazing staff – we would be absolutely delighted to come back. No doubts at all!
Dear Ms. Oren, Thank you so much for your glowing review! We’re delighted to hear that you felt warmly welcomed, even arriving late at night, and that our team made sure you felt comfortable right from the start. It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed the complimentary upgrade, the comfort of the room, and all the little details we carefully choose to make each stay special. We’re especially happy that you had such a restful night’s sleep and that breakfast left such a great impression—our chef will be thrilled to hear your kind words. Your feedback truly means a lot to us, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for another perfect stay! Best regards, Poēsis Experience Family

Verified reviewThe location is great if you want to visit Villa Borghese. Breakfast was not good, but the pastries were delicious.
There are too many rules, restrictions and requirements for hotel guests. For example, you can’t bring your own food into the room. It’s amazing. We booked the hotel for 4 nights a week before the trip. We couldn’t fly out of the country and got to the hotel later than planned. In fact, we lost the cost of two nights at this hotel. But it didn’t upset us as the hotel staff, who were aware of our difficulties and nevertheless notified us that they would not check us into the hotel if we did not check in by the end of this day, we managed to get to the hotel within 2 hours before the specified time. But the unpleasant impression from the hotel staff remained
Dear Ms. Anna, Thank you so much for sharing your experience. We’re truly sorry that you missed two nights of your stay, but we’re very relieved to hear that you made it here safely. We understand how travel plans can sometimes change unexpectedly, and we appreciate your efforts to still arrive on time. Regarding our rules and regulations, we implement them with the comfort and safety of all guests in mind. While we understand it might feel restrictive, policies like not bringing food into the rooms and smoking indoors are in place to maintain a pleasant environment for everyone. We do have many families with children and pregnant women who may be sensitive to strong odors, and we strive to create a space that’s comfortable for all. We truly appreciate your understanding in this matter. We’re grateful for your feedback about the breakfast and pastries, and we’ll certainly take your comments into consideration as we continue to improve our offerings. Again, we’re sorry for any disappointment you experienced and hope we can provide a better stay for you in the future. Kindest regards, Poēsis Family

Verified reviewEverything! This is the best hotel we have ever stayed in. The staff were so kind and helpful. Breakfast was EXCEPTIONAL and the service fantastic. Communication was great, just a message to the hotel to request any thing needed. The hotel itself is in a fantastic location, just off the main shopping street. It is beautifully decorated and maintained. Can’t wait to come back!

Nothing - an added touch would be to have dressing gown without an additional charge.

Only first day free water in room, 6 euro to pay if you want to use a bathrobe, cleaning during stay can be done better (floor was never cleaned it seems), shower gel and other amenities seemed low quality.
