Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaAs it was closer to the train station you’re a 15-20 minute walk from the centre where all the shops and main restaurants are, which meant it was a bit further if you wanted to drop your bags off after shopping or to come back for a quick pit stop it’s not as convenient to go back to the hotel. The whole of Florence is pretty walkable though, so it comes down to your needs and what your prefer!
First time in Florence, great property if you want to be close to the train station. It was only a short 6 minute walk. The staff are so lovely, gave us a quick rundown of how to get around/tips on where to go in Florence. Although no lift on the property which didn’t bother us as the hotel staff came down and carried our luggage up for us. Super accommodating and lovely, and the rooms were spotless! There were some great bars and restaurant on the same strip as the Hotel which was very convenient!

A bustling food street is situated just downstairs, with Chinese restaurants also within easy reach. Additionally, the surrounding supermarkets offer great convenience, rendering the hotel an excellent value for money。

NorwayWe only stayed here for one night, but wished we would have been longer! The location is really central, close to the train station, but still in a rather quiet and cozy street. The market hall, Medici Chapel, Piazza del Duomo and Ponte Vecchio are just a short walking distance away! Our room was on the smaller side, but still very nice. The bed was comfortable, the air condition was quiet and effective, the bathroom held a high standard with good water pressure from the shower and everything felt nice and clean. There was a coffe/tea/snack station in the hallway – a nice touch that we appreciated! The hosts are really friendly, easy to communicate with and helpful both before and during our stay. They helped us with our luggage, and let us store it after checking out which allowed us to see more of the city during our short visit. Would definitely stay here again if we were to revisit Florence!

United StatesNo elevator to the second floor but the host was able to assist with the luggage.
The host, Alejandra, was excellent. She was very punctual when communicating through the app. She went over the must-see sites of Florence and provided excellent recommendations for dining. The room was modern and clean and the location was perfect - a very easy 8 minute flat walk to the train station and minutes to the Duomo. An excellent value - for the price point it can't be beat. I would book Hotel Nella again without hesitation!

NetherlandsThe location is close to the train station (Santa Maria Novella) and within a few minutes of walking distance to the main cathedral of the city. Very friendly hosts, offering an unlimited supply of tasty cookies and tea/coffee/water. Small details like adding a full of bottle of water to the fridge for us to enjoy after a day of exploring the city was greatly appreciated. The room is comfortable and cost, perfect for our days in Florence

SingaporeApart from the fact that there’s no lift at the property (overcomed by friendly hotel staff who helped us carry our luggage’s up and down if they are around) and slightly smaller room (overcomed by the modern facilities and clean environment), everything is perfect
Loved everything about the property, it was my best stay of our Italy trip! 1.Great service (from Roberto who kindly helped with our heavy luggage on Day 1 to Ale who has been the most consistent in replies - even after working hours and sweet enough to make my boyfriend’s birthday a little more special when she found out!) 2. Super modern and new facilities (after staying at a few old hotels in Milan, Venice - this was a refreshing change and pleasantly impressed) 3. Great housekeeping and cleanliness! We were also so surprised by the attentive housekeeping standards when we came back one day to a more-than-made room (housekeeper went the extra mile to do things like reorganise our shoes, help us hang our bags on the hanger, put our luggages on the cupboard… just wow) 4. Location was good. 5 min walk from train station (great for minimising the need to lug your luggage around) and 10-15 min walk from city centre. The alley where our hotel was located also felt very safe and homely….. 5. Coffee, drinking water, biscuits, tea etc were also offered FOC. Greatly appreciated !! 6. Good value for money I will definitely book Hotel Nella again if I’m back in Florence.
