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...).

United KingdomBreakfast wasn’t great and thought the aircon wasn’t very powerful although I do appreciate that it was exceptionally hot.
Great location and friendly staff, also very clean and a bright spacious room. Also liked the fact that the the sunbeds and parasol on the beach were included.

DenmarkA lovely spot just a stones throw from the water and the charming downtown. We only had one night there before our Samaria trek and it was the perfect choice. Had we not been sunburnt we would have utilized the beach, but yeah :) Air conditioning was good! The breakfast is great and the team that runs the place is very sweet and helpful.

GermanyThe Blue Horizon at Paleochora is a fantastic hotel perfectly located directly at sandy Ammos beach and a few minutes walk to the center. The clean and quiet rooms are spacious with modern, tasteful, and comfortable furniture. The landlord family is very friendly and helpful. A special highlight is the delicious breakfast served on the second floor terrace with sea view. We will certainly come back.

United KingdomUnfortunately due to low season the sun loungers were not available... However there are plenty of opportunities next door,, but had to pay for it.
The location is great, has a beautiful terrace, with stunning views, it can be used at any time. Breakfast was excellent, the staff also can organise a packed breakfast if you wanna leave early for any day trip. That was lovely

United States of AmericaThe sheets are thin but I am sure the hotel would provide extra layers if requested (we didn’t ask). On a Tuesday the beach/nearby bar had a party so we could hear the music although it wasn’t loud enough to be disruptive.
We loved the family that operates the hotel — genuinely very kind and sweet people. We also love that they offered e-bikes and had a fantastic time staying here.

United States of AmericaWe LOVED this hotel. Conveniently located a one-minute walk to a beautiful, sandy beach with beds. The beds are free for hotel guests. The room was very clean and comfortable. It was nice to have a kitchenette. The family that runs the hotel is so kind and helpful. We left for activities two mornings before breakfast was served. They prepared and brought us breakfast food the night before. The normal breakfast food spread was delicious and had lots of a variety. The homemade pastries were so yummy. The center of town is a five-minute walk away. The hotel has a private parking lot in the back. We would definitely stay here again!
