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 AmericaMy only complaint about the property is the bathroom was much too small.
The property has very comfortable beds, a nice area for eating breakfast and a beautiful pool area. It also is a great location for those who rented a car as it provides a parking lot and it is on a main road which was easy access. The staff was exceptional and constantly checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. They would help book us taxis whenever we needed one. And they were also very lenient about us, leaving our luggage, a couple hours past our checkout time.

United KingdomThere was a small shower room near the pool which was useful, however, it did not have a toilet, the shower head was not attached the wall, there was no hook to hang your clothes or towel on, and no shelf to put your toiletries on. The nearest toilet was through reception, which was not close to the pool. It would be great if the hotel could renovate the shower room and upgrade the facilities as this would improve the experience by the pool massively. I’m hopeful that this is something they will do as they seem to be continually improving the hotel. Our only other issue was there was no bedroom bin, but this wasn’t a huge concern as the cleaners still took our rubbish that we left in a pile e.g. empty water bottles etc. However these issues didn’t impact the quality of stay and we would still highly recommend staying at this hotel!
Our stay at Margarita was amazing and we would highly recommend staying here. Elisa was so attentive, friendly and helpful. She talked us through the island and helped us plan our stay. We booked a double room but were upgraded for free to the suite which was amazing! The price of this hotel was very reasonable for Fira. Breakfast was included in our stay and had a good selection of food. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and nicely decorated. The bed was clean and very comfortable, and we had a coffee table and chairs, and make up vanity section. There was space to hang up clothes, keep suitcases and a fridge. The bathroom was huge with a big bath tub and an overhead rainfall shower. There were plenty of soft white towels and complimentary toiletries. Our little terrace had a private jacuzzi but this was an additional cost. We didn’t use it as we were not in the room much as we were busy exploring, and it isn’t the most secluded. The little terrace area had a table and chairs but did not have anywhere to hang swimsuits which would’ve been useful. Our room was close to the street, but it was not particularly noisy, even at night, and did not disturb us but I would recommend earplugs if you’re very sensitive to noise. The location was great, it was away from the town centre, making it quiet and peaceful, but easily accessible on foot (5-10 mins walk). It is close to shops, restaurants and bakeries etc. and is central on the island, making it a great location to explore every corner of Santorini. The swimming pool and pool bar were amazing. The area was so clean and decorated well. It was never busy and you could always find a sun lounger. On our last day they let us stay by the pool all day even after we had checked out. We had lunch from the pool bar and the food was delicious and very reasonably priced. There was a wide variety of food and drinks to choose from. Elisa helped us get a good deal with our airport transfer.

United Arab EmiratesThe pool area's design means that any water leaving the pool (think: dripping bathers exiting or children playing) results in a stream that reaches the street below. The hotel may not be the most child-friendly for this reason as we did not get a very welcome vibe in that sense. There is also a bit of street noise, given the location. Nothing unreasonable and certainly not a party atmosphere. The bathroom in our room at least is sorely in need of remodeling.
We are quite familiar with Fira, so we knew this location was ideal and much more affordable than the alternatives with the caldera side view. The hotel has a beautiful styling, and the hotel staff who greeted us on arrival and checkout (Alessia?) was exceptionally friendly and helpful.
