How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewWe had a nice spacious room. Nice modern bathroom. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Good selection for breakfast with great coffee. Nice lounge areas with a bar beside reception area.
Pool is fenced off between 12-4pm because there is no lifeguard and they give you a swim cap that you must wear in the pool even if you don’t dunk your head in the water. Dinner not great, not worth the money. All the family felt sick afterwards. And the maître’d was rude to my husband.

Verified reviewGreat location, spacious rooms, friendly staff and an excellent breakfast.
The staff spoke very limited English, which made communication a bit difficult. The central AC was a major issue despite repeatedly asking for adjustments, they kept the temperature at 22°C, and we felt cold throughout the night. The overall atmosphere was quite strict, almost like a military camp, with rigid rules that impacted our comfort. One night was manageable, but we wouldn’t choose to stay for more than two.

Verified reviewFront desk ladies very friendly. 1st morning there was a fresh walnut cake that was exceptional. The hard boiled eggs peeled perfectly.
Not a good night's sleep. Too much noise. There were 2 small water bottles. Water is usually given for free. They had a charge of 2.50 euro for each small water, not free.

Verified reviewThis is my third stay in this hotel.We like it because it is well positioned for the beach and the centre of Vieste.We also like the beach Lido as it has a very pleasant bar, cool breeze in its shade,good snacktype food and a beautiful view of Vieste old town. The waitresses are very friendly and kind.
I was perplexed by their communications.Information about ALL hotel activities needs to be organized in a central point for everyone to see or provide a booklet with all information in the bedroom.Maybe a little outdated but I would have appreciated this, instead of having to ask at the main desk.Infomation re the swimming pool was inside the lift for example.Reading other reviews I noticed there were game tables available of which I had no idea of or where they are!

Verified reviewGood location for walking to the old town (10 min walk) and the beach (5 min walk), plus parking and easy to get to by car
The decor was in good condition but a bit dated in style.

Verified reviewWell located hotel, close to the beach and with easy access to town centre. Very good breakfast, lots of fruits and choice of milk (including almond and oat). Staff was professional and helpful.
We booked a superior room ( a twin). The two single beds were small and the matresses not very comfortable. The shower was very small and difficult to get in and out. A heavier person would not not be able to get in at all. The swimming pool at times was not available as the lifeguard was not there. Their 'Lido' was more expensive compared to others nearby. I would not rate it 4 stars. I enjoyed my stay regardless and I would like the management to consider my review as suggestions for improvement.

There were a few hitches with the hot water in the shower and cleanliness under the bathroom radiator was not satisfactory.Some coat hangers were broken as was the bathroom scales.

Verified reviewGreat hotel, friendly staff, clean, traditional Italian atmosphere but with all the modern conveniences.
Free on site parking is not guaranteed and I had to park on the street (parking meters begin at 8am) for the first couple of days until a spot opened up for me. The hotel does offer guaranteed paid parking but at their rates it is cheaper and more convenient to park on the street. With regards to the self serve antipasto dining I was surprised to see a steep surcharge at checkout for desserts and fruit consumption since those items were spread out with the self serve antipasto items and were also get up and serve yourself items. To the future guests paying for the all you can eat antipasto (which is very good and worth the money) be aware that the fruit and desserts are not included and you will get an overpriced room service bill at checkout for some standard fruits and desserts if you are not aware. Had we known we would have gone for desserts at a local pastry shop some 100 yards away where you can eat a fresh pastry for practically one euro. You have to purchase a bathing cap from the hotel in order to use the pool or bring your own. This is sort of pointless because the pool is surrounded by trees which fall their leaves and flowers in the pool in abundance.
