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 States of AmericaThe hotel is in a very good location, not on those very loud streets where thousands of people, but 10 minutes walk from central Fira. The breakfast was very good also. The owner of the hotel Melina is wonderful. She is very helpful with everything. She was giving advice where to eat, why to see, how to get to places. Thanks Melina for all your advice.

ItalyThis hotel is simply perfect, very close to the city centre and the bus city terminal. Melina and Yannis, the owners of the hotel, were helpful and kind for our whole stay. Our room was super cozy and clean, the bathroom really nice, we liked the shower very much. Breakfast was very good. I can't find a negative thing on this hotel. It's not luxury hotel but it is cozy. If I ever go back to Santorini, I will certainly choose again Melina hotel.

Costa RicaThe location of Melina Hotel is perfect. It’s so close to the center if the town. The room is big enough and the best are very comfortable. The best part of the hotel is the staff. Melina, the host, is an amazing person. She gave my friend and I the best information and recommendations about where to go and things to do during our stay, which made our visit amazing.

AustraliaPerfect stay in Santorini. Location is far enough away from the noise of Fira but also easy walking distance to access the restaurants and shops. Melina and Giannas are very friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend this accommodation.

PolandHotel Melina is a wonderful, climatic, family hotel in the Cycladic style with beautiful flora. There is a warm and cordial atmosphere in it, which of course is given by the owners, especially by Ms. Melina, who is the good spirit of the place. For a 3* hotel, it has great infrastructure, including an intimate swimming pool, and the hotel lacks nothing. All help, advice and hospitality of the owners make this place even more friendly. From the hotel, it takes about 5-7 minutes to get to the main bus station, where buses leave in every direction, which makes it incredibly easy to explore Santorini. In about 10 minutes you will reach the main square of Fira, where everyone gathers for a wonderful sunset and from which you can go for a walk through the beautiful streets admiring the views. I heartily recommend this cozy hotel.

United KingdomThe rooms were a little small and basic but comfortable and clean. Unfortunately no wow factor when you walked in! The only thing that let the experience down was the shower area. Much too small and nobody wants to shower using a shower curtain for obvious reasons!
Location was excellent. The staff were all excellent. The breakfast was excellent. The hotel and rooms were to a very high standard of cleanliness. The pool was also a huge benefit.
