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.).

United KingdomWe had to pay a little extra (10 Euros) to get sheets for all the beds in a four bed apartment (they assume that four guests will share the two double beds if you are below maximum occupancy).
Only five minutes walk from the Porta Messina and start of the Main Street of Taormina. The room set up was convenient for a family and the staff were helpful.

When I said in a recent review that I wouldn't hesitate to go back to Hotel Soleado, I really meant it. We ended up returning to Taormina and Hotel Soleado at the end of our holiday as we found that Catania wasn't the right place to finish our trip. We did a last minute booking and were welcomed back like old friends. The warmth, generosity and support we experienced in managing the end of our trip epitomises the standard that is offered by the Stracuzzi family. Thank you so much!

From the moment we arrived at Hotel Soleado we were made to feel so welcome by the Stracuzzi family: nothing was too much trouble! We were really blown away by their friendly and professional service. The hotel is a short walk from the main thoroughfares which meant that it was near to the hustle and bustle, whilst still being lovely and quiet in the evenings. The pool was a fantastic respite from the Mediterranean heat and provided a lovely view of the sea. You can arrange a variety of excursions from reception. We chose to use their service to go to the beach for the day. We chose one of the set times to be picked up by the taxi and were chauffeured down to Mazzeo beach. For 20E each you get the taxi there and back, welcome drinks, sunbed and umbrella. We liked it so much we went a second time. The rooms were cleaned to a high standard everyday and the communal areas were spotless. We very much recommend Hotel Soleado and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again when we return to Taormina. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

United StatesThis is a small critique and might be more of a booking.com issue. We had filtered for properties with parking and we assumed that that would mean the parking was on site. The hotel worked with us to find two different garages. One was a nine minute walk away but all uphill, the other one had a shuttle.
This was a lovely property with a lovely staff. We splurged for the room with a terrace and Ocean view, and it was well worth the money.

IrelandOur stay at Hotel Soleado was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with the warmest smiles and made to feel completely at home. The staff are truly the heart of this hotel – incredibly kind, friendly, and attentive. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Whether it was offering helpful local tips or simply checking in to see if we needed anything, their genuine hospitality made our experience unforgettable. The hotel itself is spotlessly clean, with everything immaculately maintained. Our room was not only comfortable but also bright, airy, and peaceful – the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring. The location couldn't be better – situated just a short walk from the charming historic center of Taormina. It was ideal for leisurely strolls, with restaurants, shops, and stunning viewpoints all within easy reach. We especially appreciated how convenient it was without being noisy or crowded. In short, Hotel Soleado offers incredible value, a fantastic location, and a level of personal service that makes you feel like a truly valued guest. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Taormina – especially if you're looking for a warm welcome and a memorable experience.

MaltaWe had a wonderful stay at Hotel Soleado in Taormina! It’s a charming, family-run hotel, and everyone was so sweet and helpful throughout our stay. The rooms were spacious and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was great, with a wide variety of options to choose from. The hotel is about a 10-minute walk to the town centre, which was very convenient. They even arranged a beach trip with a van transfer and booked a spot at a lido for just €20 — such a thoughtful service! We would definitely choose Hotel Soleado again if we return to Taormina.

United KingdomYou could hear lots of noise from adjacent rooms. There's not much than can be done about that though.
Lovely, big room with a sea view. The private terrace area outside our room was large, with sunloungers, chairs and a table. The mini bar was far better value than most hotels. €2.50 for a beer! They need to stock more beers. The breakfast buffet was lovely, with lots of cakes to choose from (as well as meats, cheeses, vegetables, eggs etc). Coffee was very strong. Staff were excellent and organised a taxi for our return to the train station. Beware... The hotel is in the town up the hill and you must use a taxi to get to it from the station. This isn't cheap but is necessary.
