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 are 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 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.).

AustraliaLocation, location, location. The pictures don’t do it justice! Fabulous views, in centre of town but still quiet enough for a peaceful night’s sleep. Staff are friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Boat tours are within easy walking distance. Thoroughly recommend this accommodation.

United KingdomNo fault of the hotel, but the town itself was a bit sleepy the beginning of May. While there was some parking available, it was a little far away and down a very narrow and steep alleyway.
Beautiful location in the heart of Chora Skafion. The hotel is tastefully decorated throughout and the waterfront dining options were great. All the staff were super helpful and we especially loved the reception dog, Simba. The bed was incredibly cozy. We were upgraded to a better room on arrival, and there were flowers on the bed and a towel arrangement in honor of our honeymoon, nice touch!

DenmarkThe hotel staff (owner on site) were not very welcoming to say the least! We had no information about services, activities, breakfast - nothing. We were asked in a weird way to pay upfront (“we are probably busy when you leave”??) - nobody cared whether we were there or not - we were just paying customers. Very contrary to other - even larger - hotels in Crete, which are usually service oriented, care about their guests experience etc. That was not the case here
The view!!! Despite the “town” being highly touristic (the hotel is an integrated part of a restaurant street - and that is basically the town), we still had a great time and praised ourselves lucky that we came at a time with less tourists. There seems to be a common agreement that music is not allowed - we highly appreciated that!! That means you can actually hear the sea and your thoughts (not a luxury you had in some of the other Cretan tourist towns we visited). I had really nice and very flexible treatment by the booking staff of the hotel: accommodating and service oriented.

United StatesAs our rooms were fairly small, we really appreciated the sofas and comfortable lounging chairs outside in the restaurant area. They had two of these double sofa/ two chair arrangements for seating up to at least 8 people per gathering spot. We were a family of 6 and we could all sit and relax together outside of our two rooms. I didn't see any other hotel offer this feature! We stayed 5 nights and met there for our breakfast coffees and pre-dinner drinks. We could sip our drinks and order a few starters and our kids could be comfortable and not stuck in dining chairs. A very luxurious and generous touch! Also, the kids could play in the sandy beach right below us - moms having coffee but close to dads and kids right below.... "We see you!" - but no sand in our lattes.

United KingdomIt would have been nice to have moe of a welcome from the staff on arrival, such as explaining about breakfasts, WiFi code, etc.
Spacious room with a nice big comfortable bed, in a stunning location with a balcony overlooking the harbour. This is an ideal place to finish the day after hiking the Samaria Gorge then taking the ferry along the coast from Agia Roumeli.
