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.).

GermanyThis place sits in a tiny village in the mountains close the the famous Elafonisi beach and is perfect for a romantic / family getaway. The owners greeted us for check in and were very personable and warm. They also provide a lovely homemade breakfast if desired. Unfortunately we only stayed one night this time but will be back next year!

ItalyThe bathroom is very small. I would suggest to rearrange the spaces in the bathroom, having some shelves in the shower or near the sink would help.
The b&b is located in the road to Elafonisi beach, in a quiet village. Our apartment was small but comfy, with possibility to use the patio with a private table, and direct access to the pool. Grigory and his wife were very welcoming and helpful giving suggestions and directions. They welcomed us with raki and cake the first day, and his wife gifted us different homemade cakes the following days, even if we didn't choose to have breakfast.

GreeceI liked everything. If you are not an experienced driver you will find the drive a little challenging but that is everywhere in the area.
great room, very quite small traditional village, exceptional hospitality and amazing welcome drink and breakfast. Booked it because i wanted to visit Elafonisi (30 min drive), but the hotel was in a small non touristic village so it was very quite and tranquil in the evening.

United StatesDifficult to find. The bed for the child was in the loft. To reach it one has to climb a ladder and watch the head while there. Shower cabin very small.
This is a renovated old house at least 100 years old. There is a cool vibe in it. The host was very welcoming and helpful. The entire dwelling feels authentic.

SwitzerlandWe spent four days and nights with my wife and our 2 year old daughter and we highly recommend this place. The family that runs the place are so welcoming and lovely. They make a delicious breakfast that is a must try, you will not be disappointed. The rooms are clean and comfortable. They took great care of us and our daughter. For dinner there is a village 5 minutes drive away called Elos where there are several restaurants. The food is good and the people are friendly. The beautiful beach of Elafonissi is a 20 minute drive away and if you go early in the morning you'll have no problem renting a sunbed and umbrella. Thank you fairytale for this stay🙏 ❤️
