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.).

BrazilSuper recommended! It's been the best accommodation during our couple trip in Europe. The host Gabriele is very kind and gave us all the hints about the trip in the Cinque Terre. The room is magnific, renewed, clean and huge, with fair price, very functional. The breakfast is excellent, with fresh food and with the sea view from the terrace. The paid car parking lot Loreto and the train station are near to go by walking, very easy if you are traveling by car or by train. It's placed in the heart of the village and a few steps from the beach. It will be certainly our place when we go back to Cinque Terre!

United StatesI did not have any complaints.
The room was very clean and the hotel is located steps away from the water. Gabriele is a fantastic host and made all of his guests feel welcome from the moment they arrived to the moment they left. The breakfast in the morning on the terrace is a great way to start the day and Gabriele makes great coffee. I would recommend this property to anyone visiting Cinque Terre!

SlovakiaEverything was perfect.
Perfect place to stay in Monterosso! We were greeted by a very friendly and welcoming host, who was eager to share lots of helpful tips. The place was immaculately clean and well kept, and really cosy. Breakfast was great too, with plenty of options for people with food allergies (gluten-free, lactose free alternatives). It was served on the terrace, which offered views of the sea and the historic city centre. It was a real joy to start our days there. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

AustraliaFrom the moment you walk in you are made to feel at home. Beautiful building on a quiet street tucked away in the centre of the town. Every detail of your stay is taken care of. The rooms are so unbelievably comfortable. It all feels like there is a personal touch. The breakfast is just right . With a gorgeous rooftop terrace to enjoy it on, with a view of the town and the sea. 5 min walk to free local beach or a 10 min walk to all the beach clubs . This hotel with only a few rooms is quite special. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

United KingdomYou couldn't ask for a nicer, more welcoming and helpful host. Very impressed and we hope to go back one day. The historic building has a gorgeous entrance and staircase. The absolute highlight was breakfast on the terrace with sea view and view of the many historic centre buildings and hills. We loved our little balcony too where we could see the comings and goings in the street below. The hotel was kept immaculately clean, but of course there are steep steps to get up to the terrace which aren't really a problem.

United KingdomThe hotel is conveniently located in the old town next to many great bars and restaurants. The sea is also a mere 2 minutes walk from the hotel. Gabriele was a phenomenal host, incredibly attentive and a very kind man. We would recommend this stay to all those who come to Cinque Terre.

United StatesLike most old buildings in Italy, there are plenty of stairs and no lift. Gabriele was wonderful and assisted us with our bags, but if you have severe mobility issues with stairs, you may have a hard time getting to breakfast (top floor of the hotel).
This hotel is perfect as a base in Cinque Terre! It is about an eight-minute flat walk from the train station, in the heart of the Old Town. Gabriele, the manager, is truly the gem of this hotel! He gave us the best recommendations for what to do and see while in Cinque Terre. He speaks perfect English and served us the best breakfast. Our room was large and overlooked the bell tower. The A/C worked great too! We cannot recommend this hotel enough!!

EgyptThe hotel is inconveniently located on the third floor, with two additional levels. I luckily had a sea view room, but on the highest level. Without an elevator, it was a bit tiring going up and down the stairs.
I liked the comfort, cleanliness, and spaciousness of the room. I also liked the breakfast room with its uplifting vibes and sea view. Also, the hotel is very conveniently located. Above all, Gabriele was the highlight of my stay at the hotel. He is an excellent host, very friendly, very helpful, informative, and receptive.
