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.).

United KingdomUnfortunately the first room they put us in wasn't as we had expected. We asked to change which was no problem, so we moved as soon as another room became available
Great traditional breakfast of ham and cheese. Greek yogurt, dried fruit, nuts, jam and honey plus fresh fruit and bread . Plus traditional Greek cake and pastries. The Beach is within a 2 mins walking distance with plenty of sunbeds. The beach is sandy below the hotel but is rocky in either direction.

BulgariaExcellent quiet location with high quality rooms, and nice dinners served at reasonable price. The hosts were extremely kind and helpful. If you have a car, definitely check out Skala beach, it is 5 minutes drive from the hotel but is much better than the local one, with inexpensive umbrellas and varied places to have lunch.

ItalyPerfect place for couples and small families that want to relax. The place is small and well located just few metres from Mounda beach. The host is exceptionally welcoming and make you feel at home. The morning breakfast is served on a spectacular terrace with a great view while listening to jazz or classical music, having a very good variety of choice of homemade baked pies, fruit, anything else you wish. The room is quite big, cleaned everyday with care.

United KingdomWe had a fabulous 2.5 week stay here in June 2023. Lovely quiet location just back from the beach with great views across the sea to Zakynthos and along Mounda and Kaminia beaches to Katelios from both our room (sea view) and the restaurant. The staff running the place were amazing - so helpful and definitely a valuable contribution to how great our stay was. Airport transfer/taxi service provided by the hotel minibus was great - always available and very reasonably priced (cheaper than a taxi). The hotel have their own hire cars available too, whilst we didn't use these on this visit as we already had a car arranged we would use the onsite service in future. The breakfasts (included in price) were outstanding, very filling and variations from day to day to keep things interesting. We ate most nights in the on site restaurant as the food was consistently fantastic with new and interesting specials available each day. Room cleaned, towels and bedding changed regularly throughout the stay. We will definitely be returning here.

Everything perfect. the staff is very attentive and friendly. The beach next to the hotel is sandy and is one of the best beaches on the island. The breakfast was tasty. You can also have a lunch and dinner at hotel. The meals are well prepared and the price is on average (13-20€pp).

Italywe stayed in this beautiful hotel, unfortunately there was no place to spend the last night. We loved the room, it was all new and with all the comforts (Number 203), but I think they are all nice. The receptionist Teta welcomed us with great courtesy, always punctual even in replying to messages on booking. Now let's talk about the super kindness Alessandro who accompanied our stay with table service, but not only ,to accompany us to our room, very professional and kindness .We chose half board and it was all so good and served on a terrace overlooking the sea, if we return to Kefalonia this location will still be our choice, thank you

AustriaBeing in a hotel and not feeling like being in a hotel describes it very well. You immediately feel at home and more like staying at a private place. We got a welcoming drink right after arriving which made the start of the holidays perfect. Breakfast was very good served at the beautiful terrace while enjoying the sea view. The rooms are fully equipped and quite big for hotel rooms. The host was very friendly and helpful in case you needed any tips. Staying at this place a car would be recommended in order to get around the island. Perfect holiday!

AustriaThe breakfast didn't include croissants and crepes, as described above. Once we asked for vegetables, which was not possible to offer. After the first night we had to switch the room, first of all because the familiy on the first floor was incredibly loud and noisy, secondly, because the hotel has no acoustic insulation. You have to be aware of that. For example, you could hear the shower running in the neighbor apartment. The shower looks traditional, but it's not functional. Water pours on the floor. The hair dryer should be replaced, because it gets incredibly hot, so you can barely hold it. And we had a lot of ants running through the apartment. And, not to forget: They asked us if we want to have dinner. We have to admit, that it was tasty food. No complaints about that. But before we ordered it, we asked how much it is going to cost. The answer (14 Euro) was not what they charged us in the end (18 Euro). All in all, you don't get value for money.
The Hotel area was lovely decorated. The staff was very friendly and helpful. At our very late arrival they prepared us dinner. Air conditioning in the room was fine. The hotel is close to the beach. View from the breakfast area was nice. After complaining about the apartment, they managed to give us a quiet room on the first floor (with no children above us). Staff lend us an umbrella for the beach.
