Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

Austriathe room is nice and specious, but the facilities and bed are a bit outdated, and not brand new as some other places in Amalfi coast. Though view is great, this is on the less central hill of Positano not a problem if you are a fan of the stairs , but walking along the road (which is missing pavements and full of traffic) to get around is not that fun.
We selected this place for the view and for the great recommendation for the host, and both were living up to the expectations. the view of Positano from the private terrace is great, and Gippy is very kind and loves what he does. Parking in Positano is a challenge but this one is quite close to the recommended parking garage (30 euros a day, leave the key).

RomaniaWe definitely recommend this B&B and we would stay here again! The views are amazing, very good breakfast. Even if it was raining when we stayed there, the views from the terrace made everything just perfect! The bus stop is close to the accomodation, we walked to the beach and returned via Positano Interno bus.

B&B Venus Inn is a lovely B&B in an excellent location in Positano. The property is beside several restaurants, and a ten minute walk takes you right into the center of Positano. There is a clean beach only five minutes from the property. Our room consisted of a little apartment - two large bedrooms with a double bed in each, a small kitchenette and a bathroom/toilet. We had our own little balcony with a sea view and filled with sunshine.....Room 4. It was nice and quiet. Gippy, our host, couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. He gave us good recommendations for restaurants and trails nearby. Breakfast consisted of croissants, ham, cheese, a boiled egg, yogurt, fruit, tea and coffee. We would return again.

IrelandIf I could fault it, it would just be that the bathroom wasn’t clean when we arrived. There was a lot of red hair in large clumps along the walls of the shower and the head of the shower, but we just cleaned it down ourselves, it didn’t bother us too much.
This BNB is without a doubt the best accommodation in Positano. The host Gippy was beyond brilliant, so helpful, friendly, and accommodating. We loved everything about this stay - the breakfast was lovely, the VIEWS WERE EXCEPTIONAL. So warm and cosy. We could leave our bags for an hour or two after check out to soak in the last of Positano too which was brilliant. A fantastic stay.

GermanyYou don't get to sleep in because people get up early (by 8am) to have breakfast with warm sun shining on the face and enjoy the balcony view. :)
Convenient location, less than 10 min walk to the small beach and 15 min walk to the main beach. Wonderful breakfast with a fantastic view. Super friendly and caring host Gippy provided us lots of tips getting around in Amalfi Coast.
