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 KingdomNo Sky channels or English speaking tv channels except for CNN. Room Spa bath didn’t work. Breakfast - Bacon/eggs/mushrooms etc was cold most mornings. Would suggest a microwave at the dining area. Parking was tight however the staff will accommodate moving your car when spaces become available.
Room/balcony Views of Etna. Staff were exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble. Comfy bed, good A/C, great shower. We had a rental car though the regular shuttle bus was superb. Etna was blowing off every night over our 10 day stay. Amazing views !

This is a stunning hotel full of character and interesting artwork. The views from all the rooms are sensational and our room had a large balcony with two loungers . The bar has wonderful views and at night there is a stunning view of the lights stretching for miles . It is in a very quiet location and close to some good restaurants. The shuttle service runs into the town on a regular basis and the trip only takes 5-10 minutes . This was excellent and I would like to thank everyone who contributed to a memorable stay.

United KingdomThe restaurant menu could be broader to include more meat options as we are not really fish eaters , but this seems very picky.
Views were superb , Breakfast very good , the hotel overall was excellent with very helpful staff and responsive staff . We had the Etna suite and the quality of the room and comfort of the beds was excellent. The shuttle service down to Taormina was regular and well worth the cost. Restaurant food good.

United KingdomTook a day to get used to having to prebook the shuttle service to get to and from town which did make it a little less free-flowing than we'd have liked. But definitely better than having to walk up the hill!
I mean, the view speaks for itself! The pool area was clean and quiet and rooms super comfortable. Staff were great and although a bit annoying to have to wait up to an hour, the shuttle service is remarkably efficient.

AustraliaNothing really. Our stay wasn't long enough.
We loved everything about this hotel, especially the views. The staff were friendly and very helpful. We met nice people who were staying there too. You get to have some conversations when utilising the free shuttle service a couple of times a day. This is a very important service to your stay because I couldn't imagine attempting to walk into town, especially in the peak of summer.

United KingdomI know why they charge for the shuttle service and it is a very reasonable price and an invaluable and efficient service - however i query given the cost of staying at the hotel and its location as to why it is not a free service? Or a nuber of journeys are not gratis and then charged after reaching limit? Dinner menus - food is very good and service excellent however the offer is limited and does not change. Also more choices for lunch snacks would be appreciated.
Lovely location, great service and the shuttle was invaluable.
