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.).

GreeceThere is no parking for all the guests, but this is a minor issue since we didn’t have any problem parking in a 200 meter radius around the hotel.
Everything The villa itself is a marvelous historic building. You can enjoy an incredibly well prepared and with huge variety of delicious products breakfast in a beautiful room. The staff is very professional and warm at the same time. The rooms are spacious with comfortable beds and very well decorated This is one of the best hotels we have stayed , and we have stayed in many around the world. Excellent!

IsraelThere was a small misunderstanding during check-in due to the air conditioner not working with the young man at the reception, but everything was quickly resolved.
A wonderful renovated villa, with excellent repairs and design. Everything is very beautiful and comfortable. Excellent room, very comfortable beds and an absolutely gorgeous view from the window! And the breakfast is the best we have had in hotels during all our travels in Italy and beyond. The villa is very well located - in a quiet, peaceful place, and the center is literally 5-7 minutes at a leisurely pace. I planned a stay at this hotel for my birthday - and everything was great!

United StatesParking can be difficult, but where there’s a will there’s a way. And when there was absolutely no space when evening, they provided the private location.
The little extras that they provided. Most places just do the basics, but they go overboard to make your visit very comfortable and welcoming. The food was delicious; the breakfast is awesome.

EstoniaWe liked everything.
Villa Marsili is a small, cozy boutique hotel where we felt cared for and truly welcome. We had a beautiful, antique-style room equipped with all modern comforts. The breakfasts were exceptional gourmet experiences – everything served was fresh and delicious, and we especially enjoyed the chef’s handmade savory delicacies made from local ingredients. Each evening from 7 to 8 PM, signature cocktails and snacks were offered – greetings to the lovely young man who mixed our drinks! We were able to park our car for free on the street next to the hotel, and a hotel staff member arranged the spot for us. Normally, parking can be difficult during the tourist season, but I believe we would have found a spot a bit further away if necessary, as there are several parking lots around the town and there were spaces available in the evenings. We will miss this hotel and the time we spent in Cortona. We’ve been to Cortona twice before, but this experience and hotel choice surpassed all previous visits. We’ll definitely come back to the same place in the future. Thank you for a wonderful holiday!

FranceWe just loved this hotel. It felt like old world Italy in both the decor and the family way in which it was run. There were appetizers out before dinner and cookies out after dinner, with after dinner drinks and bar service available. The staff was so happy to help with anything, and always smiling. The breakfast was delicious. And it was a 5 minute walk from town. We had such a lovely stay! Thank you!

United StatesI imagined the outdoor space to be a little bigger, more secluded and not so close to the road.
The best staff of any hotel I've stayed in! So friendly, welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was excellent. My room comfortable. The location was close to town but quiet and without a need to climb much up the hills. Also close to the stop for the bus from the station. I had a small single but everything was good quality.
