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.).

United KingdomI am trying very hard to find something but cannot. Everything was just BRILLIANT.
The place is beautiful, in a historical building like an Italian palace. High ceilings and extraordinary furniture. Nikos is an excellent host, The checkin felt like you are sitting with an old friend and chatting. Everyday Nikos made sure we were comfortable and went out of his way to make our stay in Lecce special. The breakfast is so generous. Words could not describe how special this place is. The location could not be better as it is in the heart of the centre. Truly a gem. Thankyou Nikos!!!!!!!

We spent five wonderful nights at the Historical Suites in Lecce and were completely blown away. The room and facilities were nothing short of amazing – full of history, charm, and character. The large, spacious suite featured original furniture, stunning high decorative ceilings, and a truly elegant ambiance that made us feel like we were living in a piece of Lecce’s rich past.

United StatesWhat didn't we like? The fact that we had to leave.
What did we like? We loved everything. Without a doubt this was the coolest, neatest, most amazing place we stayed in our five-city trip to Puglia. Our suite was enormous. Its period furnishings were thoughtful and comfortable. The breakfast was fabulous with a nice assortment of meats, cheeses and other breakfast items. It's a fabulous location. We just loved the owner, Nikos, who is just in a class by himself. He's interesting to talk to, took time to show us around, and even drove us to the train station. A truly memorable experience.

United StatesNothing! If you didn't love Historical Suites, you wouldn't love wonderful Baroque Lecce either! We loved both!
Our Suite in the Palazzo Miglietta, a gorgeous early-nineteenth-century palace, was in fact absolutely palatial--with windows and balconies overlooking Lecce's main walking streets, and with both a sitting room and enormous bedroom--all decorated with antiques and beautiful paintings. We were in the lap of luxury--whether in our huge and comfy brass bed, in our beautifully-appointed sitting room (offering tea and coffee), or in our roomy and convenient MODERN bathroom--in the very heart of one of the most gorgeous cities in Italy. We were able to walk everywhere in a matter of minutes. Nicos, our host, could not have been friendlier or more welcoming. His restaurant suggestions led us both to traditional osterias (where most of the other diners were locals) and to elegant ristorantes. And every morning he served us a wonderful breakfast featuring delicious local pastries, warm from the local bakery. We felt entirely at home in this drop-dead gorgeous place, which you enter through a tiny door within an enormous outer door made for horses and carriages. Every time we went out or came in, we felt like members of the nobility. It was hard to leave. Highly recommended. A fantastic place and a great value.

Beautiful historical room in a nobleman’s house right next to the Duomo. The location could not be better. Nikos the host was super helpful and very knowledgeable about the city and gave good tips about restaurants (try Volo). Breakfast was good and served in a Library.

Everything about our stay was perfect. Nikos is the perfect host and did everything he could to make our five night stay the best. The building and furnishings are just fabulous. Nikos enthuses so much pride in the place and gave us some great tips for restaurants and sights. We were lucky to be able to use the parking space and after the first tricky attempt we got the hang of it. I am sure we will be back to Lecce as we lived our stay and if we do we will no doubt stay here again.

Historical suits are located in the 18th century palace and has been decorated with wonderful antiques. We felt very special while staying there. Nikos, the host, welcomed us with kindness and warmth. He equipped us with a detailed itinerary for our two-day stay that we thoroughly enjoyed. We loved having breakfast in a library lounge listening to the bell music from the nearby Duomo piazza. The suites are easily reached by foot from the train station and close to all major attractions in Lecce Definitely recommended
