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.).

AustriaOnly very small point to improve: if you shower, you make the bathroom pretty wet.. and it would be amazing to have shampoo in the shower.
The hosts were amazing, so kind and nice, the breakfast was incredible, everything freshly home made. The rooms were very comfortable. There was a garden/terrace which was very nice

Mario and Vanna are amazing hosts! We loved our room and the scrumptious breakfast Mario prepared for us every morning. Vanna and Mario also very kindly picked us up and offered to drop our bags off on the day we were leaving to allow us to do a day trip to Capri. Their garden is beautiful with lemon and olive trees too! Only a 15 min walk to the town centre, we got the peacefulness overnight without being too far from the centre. Would stay again if we visit Sorrento!

New ZealandWonderful stay with friendly and accommodating hosts. Mario's breakfast was the highlight of every morning. Rooms were clean and well set out. The location was perfect for us only a short walk to town but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet. There's a supermarket just around the corner which was handy.

AustraliaHonestly, there was nothing we didn’t like about our stay. Every detail exceeded our expectations. If we had to find something to critique, we simply couldn’t—it was that perfect.
A Truly Exceptional Stay at Xenia House! Our stay at Xenia House in Sorrento was nothing short of perfect. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality we received was absolutely exceptional. The hosts went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable—nothing was ever too much trouble for them. Each morning, we were treated to a delicious breakfast that was both beautifully presented and full of fresh, local flavors. It was the perfect way to start our days of exploring the stunning Amalfi Coast. The attention to detail, warmth, and genuine care shown by the hosts made this stay truly unforgettable. We felt more like guests in a cherished home than customers in a hotel. We can’t recommend Xenia House highly enough and would return in a heartbeat. Grazie mille for everything!

Amazing stay! Mario and the team are the most welcoming hosts — they went above and beyond with pick-up/drop-off at the train station, great restaurant tips, and even helped with sightseeing tours. Rooms are spotless, the location is excellent, and breakfast was generous and delicious. Sorrento is the perfect base for Amalfi Coast and Capri, and Xenia House made our trip unforgettable!

IrelandThe hosts were wonderful, arriving to collect us at the ferry to bring us to Xenia House. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and had a little balcony, which was an added bonus. The breakfast each morning was plentiful. Fresh fruit, pastries, and bruschetta, all of which were delicious. The house is within walking distance to the centre. The hosts and cleaners were lovely and would never pass without a big smile and friendly hello. I could not fault Xenia House Sorrento.

Everything! The property was always clean, welcoming with genuine, kind hosts. I cannot recommend this enough. The location also was perfect. We were picked up from the station for no extra charge, at one point we thought we lost our keys and they were so kind about it and gave us spares free of charge (we found them!). Mario’s breakfast was incredible and a highlight of our trip, as was Vanna’s Mothers limoncello! We will definitely be back. Thank you so much for having us.

Everybody come stay at this hotel! This hotel, or b&b actually, has the sweetest owners. We were picked up from the station by one of the owners and were given a lovely roomtour and great tips about Sorrento and where to eat, drink etc. The breakfast was also amazing! We were given a feast full of pastries, yoghurts and savory items and when we explained we couldn’t make breakfast because of an early bus to the airport, the owner prepared a little to go bag for us. We stayed in the yellow room, which was lovely. Very spacious and clean, with a nice bathroom and a big terrace. The location of the hotel is also very good, within 10 minutes you are in the city centre. I could not recommend this hotel enough!
