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.).

IrelandScraping the barrel here but the flow of the rain shower was slightly on the weak side at certain times in the evening.
My wife and I spent a wonderful week at Taliammari. From the moment we arrived we knew this was a special place. On entering the front entrance the spectacular backdrop of the sea was less than 20m. The view was mesmerising with the rocks, crags, waves and hues in constant motion and entwinement. This is where we enjoyed a varied breakfast each and every morning that was more than satisfying with savoury and sweet treats, your choice eggs, orange juice, coffee etc. Our room was a junior suite on the top floor (3rd and lift access) with side sea view and a more than spacious and private terrace. The facilities were ample for our needs including small but comfortable reception area, bedroom with very comfortable bed, bathroom and most importantly A/C situated in the bedroom but with doors open cooled the entire space. Down below was the beautiful and vibrant Sicilian street with many contemporary restaurants and shops to suit every need. Indeed, we rarely left this area such was everything we required. Literally outside our door was the large roof terrace with sun loungers and plenty of seating. The full on sea view was amazing as was the sunset in the evening. We felt this was our own terrace for private use every day as we rarely saw any other guest which really suited us as we are not full on beach goers. In the evening the hotel has an outdoor veranda with different levels that protruded over the rocks and lapping waves just feet below. This surely was the place to retreat of an evening to watch the sunset with a glass of your fancy. Truly breathtaking. A final word must go to the staff. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we were made to feel very special. We cannot thank them enough for the wonderful week we spent at the Taliammari. A very beautiful boutique hotel with high standards, exceptional service and central to absolutely everything Cefalù has to offer. When returning, this is where we will stay for sure.

NorwayThis was by far the most beautiful hotel we stayed at – not just in Cefalù, but anywhere we’ve been. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with such genuine warmth and kindness by the staff that it didn’t feel like checking into a hotel – it felt like coming home! The view? Absolutely breathtaking by the sea. The bar was also a perfect little gem, ideal for enjoying a glass of wine or an aperitivo while watching the sun goes down🧡 Everything about the place was thoughtful, elegant, and simply beautiful. It was peaceful, perfectly located, and full of soul. This wasn’t just a stay – it was an experience we’ll always remember. Truly the most incredible hotel, and the kind of place you start dreaming about returning to the moment you leave!

United StatesThis hotel in Cefalu was really nice. The rooms were modern and super clean. Our bathroom was particularly large. The cleaning staff were amazing! My family members and I enjoyed the terrace breakfast. (I could have sat there all day looking at the peaceful calm water.) The hotel had a cute deck area for relaxing and for beverages. Staff in general were so nice and accommodating. Best location for all the town has to offer; shops, restaurants and beaches.

United StatesWe stayed on the top floor, which meant lots of stairs. We didn’t mind, but our older parents had a tough time. Would be hard for older people to carry luggage. The view from the top was great! You get a sea view in lobby and a street view from room. Love!
Air conditioning!! It was hot and coming home to a cool room was a treat. Great location to restaurants, shopping and the beach (private and public). The breakfast was perfect each morning, along with the view from the balcony.

This property was the perfect place for our stay in Cefalù! It is a 10/15 minute walk from the train station and located on the Main Street of bars and restaurants overlooking the sea with incredible sunset views. It is a couple minutes away from the main piazza with the cathedral and few hundred meters away from the beach front. The staff at the property were amazing - so friendly and helpful, they couldn’t do enough for us and made us feel part of the family during our stay. The property is clean, spacious and has a lift for luggage which can be rare in Italy! The property is also linked to a bar where you have the best sunset view in Cefalù, there is also a rooftop for guests to enjoy sun loungers / a private sunset view! The breakfast was amazing, on the terrace overlooking the ocean with a different selection of savoury options and pastries each day as well as the option of freshly cooked eggs. The coffee was also made perfectly. This place is a gem and a must stay if you plan a trip to Cefalù!
