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.).

This is a lovely place to stay in Castellabate in May. We parked in a little free parking area below the hotel and outside the old town, with just a couple of flights of stairs to go up (and the very nice family owners helped us with bags). They gave us very good restaurant recommendations and suggested trips, places to swim at check-in - all good. Room was charming, with a little table and chairs on the balcony with sea views and overlooking the hotel courtyard. Very comfy bed and quiet at night, good breakfast on the terrace with excellent coffee and sea views. This is an interesting (we still haven’t seen the film Benvenuti al Sud, which used the hotel ‘lobby’ for some scenes) and extremely pleasant, easy place to stay.

The place was fantastic! We were lucky enough to get an even nicer room than the one we had originally booked, as it was available. I really appreciated the kindness and helpfulness of the staff, everyone was warm and welcoming. Lello is an amazing host!

United KingdomCiro, our host, was waiting outside to welcome us when we arrived, parking was right outside and free. The property is on a hillside so there were a few steps but it does mean that you get to enjoy the view over the sea and bay below. Our host showed us to our room, it was wonderful, clean and comfortable. It was simply and tastefully decorated with a very comfortable large bed. Our room had a good sized balcony equipped with table and chairs. The balcony looked straight out over the bay and the sea beyond and the view continued around to see the neighbouring hills and valleys so we could sit outside and have a glass of wine whilst enjoying the setting. And if this wasn't enough, our room had a porthole in the shower - this was incredible (note - not all rooms are the same) - everything here is so nice - the property, the setting, the room, the host and the village! We are quite picky about where we stay and I had forgotten how good this place looked online - we did not intend on deviating this far from our Amalfi drive but having spent just one night here we are so glad we did. We loved this place so much it made us think about coming back to stay for longer and to explore this area of Italy.

SwedenExcellent location with a wonderful view of the sea and Cilento coast and a great balcony (junior suite). Perfect if you have a car to reach all great spots around like beaches and other villages. Be prepared to walk some stairs but for us it was great and Castellabate very nive villagea. Ciro and the staff were great and very helpful with everything.

United KingdomStunning location set with panoramic views of the sea and mountains. Welcoming and friendly proprietor who greeted us on arrival and helped us throughout our stay. Fantastic service with traditional breakfast seated on the terrace with lovely views. Great base for exploring Castellabate on foot via the small quaint pathways directly outside the hotel and the surrounding areas. Perfect hotel to just chill out and unwind as well as exploring the surroundings. Free easily accessible parking available which is a big bonus. We will definitely return in the near future.

United StatesNo complaints. Guests should know they will need to climb some stairs, and it is helpful (though not necessary) if they can speak and understand a bit of Italian.
The place is charming. Fantastic view of the ocean and nearby towns from our suite (and our shower!) and the common terrace. The hotel is in the historic hilltop town of Castellebate. The town is quiet, which we liked--lots of narrow walkways and stairs, a few bars and restaurants. Hotel staff (owners?) Lello and Ciro (sp?) were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was simple but very nice with fresh coffee and pastries, yogurt, and juice. The suite's kitchen is small but included almost everything we wanted. Free parking was just across the street.

Beautiful location with spectacular views from the private garden. It was great to have access to the garden 24/7. A good breakfast was served in the garden for an affordable price. Our host was amazing and went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was comfortable. He even came to collect us when we were left stranded in town in the middle of the night on our arrival from the airport. If you would like to stay at a friendly family run hotel with a host that is always happy to help and make you feel at home then Residenza D'epocaTamara is the perfect place for you.
