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 KingdomWe were met at the ferry by the lovely Elissea and driven the short distance to Villa Elion. We had a wonderful stay and really appreciated the little touches, such as beach mats and snorkels provided. The house is central and very close to the shops and the restaurants of the main town. We loved exploring Symi and enjoyed some short hikes to deserted beaches out of the town. Not all restaurants were open in April but we still found plenty of options. The house was spotlessly clean.

United KingdomNothing really though we found the beds too hard but this may just be personal preference. The middle single bed was better.
A very spacious apartment, well equipped with a very generous breakfast offering. Great to be met at the ferry and to access the property early. This is a real home, decorated and maintained to a high standard. The roof terrace is fabulous though the access via a spiral staircase won’t be for everyone.

I cannot praise Andreas and his mother highly enough for the wonderful experience we had staying at Villa Elion. We were picked up at the port and taken literally around the corner from the waterfront to the villa. The location is incredible, and the views from the roof terrace spectacular. Inside, everything you could need had been thought of, and more. The hosts were so incredibly generous, stocking the kitchen with all manner of foodstuffs, drinks and treats. Every other item you might need was there (Washing liquid, hats, even beach mats and snorkel!). The villa was quiet despite its central location, and had several balconies to sit out on. It's got to be one of the best places we've stayed at, thanks again for a wonderful holiday!

IrelandHaving to leave symi. It's a beautiful island.
Location is excellent. we got collected from the ferry, but to be fair, there is no need as it's only a 5 minute walk. The roof terrace is stunning. Would recommend Villa Elion the all. Thanks for everything.

TurkeyVilla Elion is a beautiful apartment with a wonderful view from Symi. I spent 4 nights with my friend. The owner Andreas is extremely kind. They sent me a email to pick-up me on the ferry when i arrive in Symi but I didn’t see my email before, when i arrived was difficult find the address because we couldn’t find the address in booking and internet, so we walked and asked around, at the end we could find because some local helped us. So, if you book, check your email before, but was my fault, because I didn’t check my email. Thank you so much for everything, was so good, i hope back one day.
