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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

BelgiumDirty iron that left a stain when steamed. Hotel dry cleaned the shirt but it is not acceptable for hotel of this level. Size of iron board delivered to room was also super tiny and not convenient at all. Cucumber salad for 23 euros could have been a bit more than just sliced cucumber XD and corona mask signs could have been removed after pandemic to avoid guests having unsafe feeling for no reason
Excellent cleanness, location, staff, room and facilities.

United KingdomWe had a few problems with our suite, the drains smelt really bad, there was no hot water on one day, there was some confusion over payment on the boat taxi and the taxi to the train station arrived 20 mins late......luckily we did make the train so all good and they did resolve the other issues. The boat skipper and concierge were a little standoffish which made you feel a bit unwelcome. It's rare I complain at a hotel but here I felt I had to pull them up on something every day which isn't a nice way to spend a holiday. I think we were just a little unlucky, but given the cost of the hotel, you don't expect to have a room smelling of drains with no hot water. It's very expensive to eat at the resort but we expected that.
Stunning location and scenery, breakfast was amazing, beautiful beach and incredible views. Good gym too! The boat taxi was cool. One of the waiters at breakfast was a real joy, they always had a huge smile and were super friendly. T

United StatesThis resort is a class act. The landscaping was exceptional. Breakfast was very good with the option to sit outside. We enjoyed the private beach with lifeguard on duty. It’s sandy and wonderful ! They upgraded us to the most extraordinary villas with impeccable quality throughout and our own lap pools! It was a slice of heaven for 4 nights and we could park our car right outside the gate. Thank you very much, Luca! We hope to come back again ! <3

United KingdomIt is difficult trying to get the balance between creating a relaxing environment whilst providing adequate entertainment for guests. Given the resorts relative isolation from the town of Siracusa, more entertainment should be provided in the form of music at the pool and entertainment at dinner in the evenings. More guests would have stayed in the resort rather than venture to Siracusa most days.
The staff were extremely helpful attentive and welcoming. The food was excellent and the choice at breakfast was impressive. The resort is located on a headland across the bay from Siracusa. There is a selection of pool, beach and rocky outcrops where you can relax and SISK up the Sun.

NorwayA little long distance to the city and Ortigia. We took the shuttle boat over one evening for dinner, but it was a bit overpriced.
Lovely hotel area, and we had a really great room with a beautiful view. Good breakfast, and good restaurant with slightly high prices.

United StatesThe Sicilian BBQ wasn't the greatest for Italian food. The pasta was nothing special, but the atmosphere made up for the lack in flavor in the dinner. The breakfast options were fantastic.
Beautiful location. The hotel grounds were impeccable. The view of Ortigia from the hotel was amazing. The staff was pleasant and accommodating. The beach and ocean areas were perfection. The rooms were definitely updated and everything you would need was provided.

United StatesOur room was upgraded to a suite to accommodate my family of 4 which was nice for the hotel to do. Although the suite was a good size the setup was a little odd. There was no door or closure on the bathroom which made it very awkward for privacy. My family and I was bit by several mosquitoes while in the suite for the first few minutes. Cost of food and drinks was astronomical plus added additional fees to be delivered to the beach, when there are no options to pick any food or drinks up and take away. As a 5 star property I would expect this to be a courtesy and part of 5 star level service.
The resort is beautiful. My family enjoyed the rocky beach and taking the boat service to see Siracusa. I staff was kind and friendly.

United KingdomThe food quality- given Italy has some of the best food in the world. This was without the worst we've had in the many weeks we've spent out in Italy Sadly the cost of the food and drink is very high. The hotel is far away (walking) from anywhere else to eat or drink which means you are forced to pay high fees.
Private beaches were quite different to one another and relaxing Overall facilities were impressive Ordering 'room service' to anywhere on the hotel grounds was great Room cost was pretty reasonable for a 5 star Style of hotel complex was cool
