Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

This hotel is in the most incredible location on the west coast of Santorini with amazing views over the caldera. It is also decorated to a very high standard and the staff are very helpful. Lots of steps though so not for anyone with limited mobility.

AustraliaLoved everything but need to be aware there are many steps to the property … so quite a challenge climbing the stairs every time we went out. Porters were next level amazing carrying our suitcases down and back up. They deserve a medal 👏. Stairs would be difficult for those with young children or mobility issues.
Spectacular location at Firostefani, amazing views, beautiful large rooms and balconies and terraces, amazing pool and pool bar and all staff were so helpful and happy. Only about a 15 minute walk to Fira but far enough away to be out of the crowds.

United States of Americano complaints but unlikely to return to Santorini again as the ratio of cruise ships and tourists is ridiculous and it feels more like Key West Florida with hordes of tourists milling around - thank goodness Agali House is at the bottom of the steps and thankfully quiet and away from all the crowds of tourists crowding the upper steps to take sunset pictures
This is a first-class boutique hotel with first-class customer service and incredibly helpful and strong staff who heaved our luggage up and down 100+ stairs in one go - impressive. Our room offered an incredible view of the Aegean and the Caldera. Our room was quiet and clean with adjustable a/c and a comfy bed. The pool area and the surroundings were incredible. This really is a wonderful place to stay. Dimitri and Milkti (not sure of spelling) were attentive and organized our port>hotel and hotel>airport shuttles for us and helped us with luggage up and down all those steps - everything was very organized and went smoothly. Read all the reviews before you book at this location. We were aware that there are many many many steps to descend and go up daily and the hotel does not accept any friends or family as guests that may be staying in different hotels to you - we got it - we understood why, this is a quiet hotel and there is only so much space around the pool for sun-loungers - I am writing this here as we were prepared for the strict guest rules!

United KingdomAs everyone mentions there are a lot of stairs even though you know this before you go they do take you by surprise and they are hard work to get up but it would not stop us visiting again as it’s so worth the stairs for the views.
The staff and location at Agali Houses were excellent Just returned from 7 night stay. The staff were so friendly and helpful we were delayed in getting to our holiday because of flight cancellations and none of this was a problem for them it really helped a stressful situation. The room was lovely with a beautiful view of the cauldera, I had read other reviews of guests having a problem with having to wait a little while for the water to heat for the shower I can honestly say this was not a problem at all takes only a few minutes to heat and we never ran out of hot water. The room was clean and very pretty and had an amazing caldera view. Staying in Firastefani is ideal it’s away from the crowds but easy to reach Fira in a short walk. Thank you all at Agali for a lovely holiday

AustraliaThe stairs were pretty intense! Great for the body but they were challenging at times. The pool area is a little small to accommodate the guests and there aren’t many shady areas. Our private balcony was in sun for most of the day, while they did provide an umbrella it was still quite hot. I wish I had booked a room with a private pool in retrospect. It’s a shame the hotel doesn’t offer dinner.
Stunning views, very comfortable room.

This accommodation is family owned and this comes to through. The care taken with the shared area, rooms, meals, service, advice as to what to do is exceptional. Owe thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would have no hesitation to recommend this beautifully presented and cared for accommodation. Yes, steps were hard but spare a thought for the gentleman who carried our bags while smiling to us as well. From the moment I contacted Agali to the moment we left we were treated as part of the Agali family. Thank you for everything.
