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.).

IrelandIt would be great for the hotel to expand their drink offerings e.g. more cocktail selection and also for some small food to be available to order during the day.
Beautifully renovated property in the centre of a very nice neighbourhood in Palermo. There are so many nice bars and restaurants near by. Our room was very clean, quiet and unique. All the staff we encountered during our stay were very friendly. The staff allowed us a late checkout due to a late flight which we were very grateful for. The pool is a great addition in the Palermo heat and the gardens are beautiful.

CroatiaThere was a special event during our stay, so we were limited with the parking space, but the Bastione Spasimo Boutique Hotel personnel made sure we had the option to park in a nearby garage (25 EUR/night).
The Bastione Spasimo Boutique Hotel personnel were amazing! We had a misfortune and missed our flight, so we weren't able to check in at the agreed time (we arrived well past midnight), but nevertheless the personnel recorded a video just for us and sent it via WhatsApp where they explained the whole procedure of how to enter the hotel using a code, find the room keys in a locker, and navigate to our rooms. While we were stranded at the airport, lol, they prepared everything for us and even asked to leave a breakfast box for us if we planned to leave early in the morning. Rooms were modern and clean, the ceiling was spectacular, and the garden was amazing! Like a botanical garden in the city center! Unfortunately we stayed for only one night and didn't have enough time to use the pool in the garden but did manage to drink the morning coffee beside it.

GermanyWe had an absolutely wonderful stay at this charming hotel — so much so that we came back to stay again during our trip! Nestled in the heart of Palermo, it offers a peaceful, idyllic retreat right in the middle of the city’s vibrant energy. The location is perfect for exploring, yet the hotel itself feels like a hidden sanctuary. The rooms are truly unique and beautifully designed — full of character and comfort. Each detail seems thoughtfully chosen, giving the place a very special atmosphere. Breakfast was delicious every morning, with a lovely variety of fresh and local options. One of the rare gems of this hotel is the pool — a real luxury in Palermo and a perfect way to unwind after a day of sightseeing. We especially want to thank Paolo, Iolanda, and Alessandro, who were incredibly attentive, warm, and helpful throughout our stay. Their hospitality made our experience even more memorable, and we sincerely hope they remain part of the hotel team for a long time to come.

The hotel is the most beautiful historic building, the gardens are stunning , the original stone of the building is incorporated into the rooms. The staff were excellent & couldn’t do enough . The breakfast was the best I had in Sicily throughout my stay . The area is in a residential area but full of great local bars & restaurants & within walking distance to the main area of Palermo

Great location. Friendly staff. Lovely garden and pool. Some good restaurants nearby, especially if you like fish. However the standard rooms don’t have anywhere to sit and apart from the garden there is no general communal seating area. Lots of accessible things to do from this location in Palermo

SloveniaSome electrical outlets by the bed would be nice. Also the bathroom space is a bit weird, since it's not separated from the bedroom by a concrete wall, but rather by a glass wall, so you can clearly see your roommate on the toilet and also hear everything (obviously not a problem if you're close with your roommate :) )
The best thing about this hotel are the staff, always very helpful and kind. The hotel garden offers a peaceful retreat from the busy streets of Palermo. The breakfast was delicious and included a variety of foods.

United KingdomThe location, while good in many ways, is close to an activity park/area which is used for local kids to socialise into the late evening; can be a bit noisy. I guess you are paying for the location a bit and the general loveliness of the accommodation and the garden - but it was a bit pricey, we felt. Note: Nothing to do with the hotel but some of the local restaurants were a bit of a disappointment. While Osteria Alivaru was fine and Quattro was pretty good, Carizzi D'Amuri was average and Ciccio in Pentola was poor (though highly rated by others).
We has a superior double room which was spacious, clean, well maintained, and dual aspect with a view over the lovely garden/pool area; the shower room was very good too. We were provided with tea/coffee making facilities and some bottled water. The garden, with a pool, is an oasis-like area; beautiful, calm, relaxing with a number of seating areas to lounge. The reception staff were, without exception, extremely helpful; very good. The location, within a short walk of the train station, the bus station, the coast, the botanical gardens, and the old town, is ideal in many ways.

United KingdomWould have liked hotel to initially recommend the train from the airport and not a taxi. 6Euros vs 50E and slower in a car!!
The location is fantastic, walkable into the main area and feels really local and authentic. We got a car from the airport, but didn't need to. The train station is a 10 min walk away and an hour - much more efficient than being stuck in a car in traffic.
