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.).

ItalyThe pool is a bit old, dirty at the bottom and one was even empty. The apartment was good, just a bit dated. I loved the 3 bathrooms and the little patio but the sofa bed was very uncomfortable, one of the room upstairs didnt have a lot of space and couldnt open the window and a few essentials were missing in the kitchen like a cloth to dry the dishes, small coffee cups.
The location is very beautiful, quiet with amazing views and close to Barberino.

United KingdomRooms could do with a renovation but to be honest it was part of the villa’s authentic charm.
The view of the Tuscan countryside made this a wonderful overnight spot. We were travelling in a camper so could make our own dinner and eat it on the terrace with a spectacular view. Lovely breakfast too.

United StatesThey treated us like family. The staff at Villa San Filippo is very caring, dedicated, and professional. Not only were they attentive to every detail to make our stay wonderful, they also offered us their local knowledge and helped us plan our itinerary for an enhanced experience of the region and local restaurants. The views from almost every window are expectacular. The house was updated to provide modern guests' comforts, yet preserving its historic charm. The breakfasts were delicious, including local favorite treats on pastries, fruits, fruit jambs, a wide variety of coffee, and tea. In addition, they included cereals, eggs, hams, salami, and an assortment of bread and crackers. There is also a well stocked bar in the lobby to enjoy a spritz while watching the amazing sunsets over the Tuscan landscape. Italians are happy, educated, kind, and very warm people, and God gave them a beautiful country. We are now in Rome, awaiting our flight home, but we can't wait to visit our friends again.

United KingdomOnly minor issue was that the €5 charge for use of pool towels was not clearly outlined on booking.com. We saw that pool towels were available (with no mention of a charge) so we decided to leave ours at home.
Excellent facilities, great value for money, comfortable bed, powerful showers & plenty of parking. Air conditioning was not too loud either. Beautiful location!

GreeceBathroom too small. Have to crawl behind the door to sit on the toilet. Sliding door half broken off, Electrical socket broke off the wall. Kitchen/bathroom of cheap quality and not in line with the beautiful building.Bad lighting. Breakfast good but disorganised. But ...., despite of all that, it was still a fantastic place and loved to be there.
The position, the view and the building are fantastic

United StatesVery warm in our room, until we got a couple of fans. Cicadas took some getting used to. The towels didn’t smell fresh.
The location is stunning. The pool is beautiful, relaxing & refreshing. The staff is friendly & helpful and the breakfast was delicious. The property owner, Claudio was a great host and very accommodating. The views were breathtaking; like a painting of the Tuscan countryside.

CanadaThis place is an authentic mansion from the 1700's. You have to enjoy the charm of such a property. If you want an authentic Tuscan experience, go for it. This is not a place for those who seek a modern hotel
It felt like staying at a friend's villa. Warm hospitality and authentic Tuscan food.

Beautiful setting, lovely characterful building , large bedrooms, helpful staff, plenty of sunbeds, large pool. Town about 2 miles away with good restaurants.

United StatesWe loved our stay at San Fillipo. The rooms, the view, the service, the hospitality, everything was beyond amazing. Great scenic view. Breakfast was decent. Pool area is very well organized. The Villa is close to local villages so everything is just a small drive away. I would recommend renting a car to explore Tuscany at your own pace. Claudio, who took care of us during our stay was so welcoming and kind. We were very impressed by the quality of service. If you are looking for an intimate stay with a great view then look no further. I would highly recommend this place. Thank you so much making our trip to Tuscany very memorable Claudio!

Bella 😍 We loved everything. This quaint and beautiful resort is right out of a romantic movie. Perched on a hill with views of green rolling hills draped with grape vineyards, Italian cypress and winding roads. We arrived and tried our Italian with the receptionist, who spoke English and was very helpful. Our rooom was like a lovers nest. At the top of a staircase (they have an elevator) with two floors and amazing views. The ?hotel manager, Claudio, treated us like great friends. We spoke about the area, drives and restaurants. We felt like we were family. We walked the manicured grounds, sat by the pool, had a lovely breakfast and wished we booked more than one night in Chianti and Villa San Filippo. It was lovely 💕
