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 KingdomThe outside area was neglected which was a shame as sitting outside is nice on a summer evening. Also we didn’t think that you should have to pay extra to park on the property. We have been visiting Lucca for many years and have never experienced this before.
Very close to Lucca walls. Comfortable room with a very good breakfast. Celeste was very fast with communication and a great host.

Hungaryi received what i expected from a last century villa.
Staff was really nice, check-in was smooth. The villa is located 300m from city wall Jacopo gate. for 10 euro per day i could park on villas backyard. There were old bikes freely available so we could bike around the city wall which is great fun. lock was provided for the bikes so we could lock the bikes while we visited Duomo or other places. Lucca historical city is not to big so you can walk it, but with these old bikes we were like a local and we could visit everything in a half day. Breakfast was simple but good, bread, butter, ham, cheese, yoghurt, juice, capuchino and brioche. You can.make tea in the room or you can buy coffee capsule at the reception and there are cups and coffee maker .

FinlandThis was our second stay at Villa Catelli. We have travelled several times to Lucca, and we absolutely love the city, the genuinity of the surroundings and the people, all the good restaurants, and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere. The location of Villa Catelli is perfect, as it's a short walk to the old town. The street is surprisingly quiet, as is the villa. The sisters are friendly and accommodating. We keep coming back to Lucca, one of our favourite places in Italy, and Villa Catelli will be our first choice of accommodation.

AustraliaThe bathroom in the master bedroom is not very user friendly, the tub is too deep to get into, specially for older people. The front veranda rails are a bit mouldy.
Safety; clean rooms, clean sheets, comfortable, proximity to restaurants and historic area, very friendly staff - shout out to Celeste, Hilaria and Stefano. Celeste was always prompt with answering questions regarding the property facilities and other issues about the area.

FinlandThe mattress was a bit hard (foam rubber, maybe?). Whole grain bread would have been nice in addition to the white bread, but all in all, the room was comfortable, and breakfast was good.
A peaceful and cosy place. Nicely decorated with old furniture. Celeste is a very warm and friendly person (and her sister as well). Ample breakfast with eggs, toast, fresh fruit, and gluten free products. It's a short and easy walk to the old town. We really enjoyed the serenity and relaxed atmosphere after a day out exploring the area. Lucca is a town we keep coming back to, and Villa Catelli is certainly a great place to stay.

SwitzerlandWhenever we go to Corsica we stop on the way home in Lucca and in the Villa Catelli. Céleste is a very friendly and helpful person. Villa Catelli has become a little home on the way home. Meeting locals in a country makes a visit so much more real. As long as we will be able to come to Lucca we will choose Villa Catelli. We also like is that we can use their bycicles. It is worth cycling on the city wall on Lucca. Villa Catelli is right next to the city walls. Arrividerci Celeste and also Ilaria (her twin sister). See you soon again.

It has on-site parking which is a good idea since the on street parking was busy. Friendly and efficient hosts and a typical Italian buffet breakfast. Recommended and we' d stay again.

Location is perfect. Very close to one of the ports of the old centre of Lucca. The room itself is spacious and and the bed is perfect. The breakfast is very complete and on request you can order fried or boiled eggs.
