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 Kingdomthere are 125 steps down to the property and they are very uneven. This is not a hotel for the infirm or elderly. The staff carried our cases down on arrival and up on departure. the terrace was an excellent area outside our room .
the property was very clean and the room was well maintained.

United KingdomAll eastern Mediterranean problem, you cannot drop toilet paper to WC. Santorini is a bit expensive, a lot of tourists, what means at least some of them voluntary will pay more. Nevertheless, you can roam all over and find either cheaper and more expensive options.
Marvellous view on caldera. Outdoor spaces to seat and relax. Temperature (during Spring).

United StatesEverything was amazing.
You’ve got a great view from your hotel room and the pool area of the caldron. Sunsets are amazing. The room is wonderful. There’s public parking lot across the street from the hotel. There’s about 40-50 steps down from the street to the hotel. You are a 20 minute walk to the main shopping area on Santorini. This hotel is centrally located, but outside of the busy shopping district of Fira, but close enough to get there quickly. The room has an amazing sunset and caldron view.

United KingdomShame that getting access to drinks or snacks was so limited. Staff in cafe were not very attentive and somewhat unwelcoming on the one morning we decided to have breakfast. We seemed to be in the way. This was completely at odds with other staff we met in Agali Houses who couldn’t have been more friendly.
Fabulous views. Very quiet despite being very close to bars and restaurants. Friendly and efficient reception staff. Everything spotlessly clean and tidy.

United StatesVery hard scratchy towels like they were air dried so not fluffy. You were required to turn on hot water switch and wait 25 minutes for water to warm up prior to using the shower. Then the water was still not hot the entire showering time. Lots of steps to get to property. Lock box safe was provided but located on the bottom toward the back of the closet so it was difficult to access. Also have to use a key to lock it -- combination would be more efficient.
Staff was very attentive and kind. View was spectacular and we had a view of the sunset which was great. Location is good -- 70 steps down from the "street" and an additional 24 to room. Phew!! Room was comfortable and spacious.

United KingdomThe taxi drops you off in the square where you are met by a member of staff who carries your cases down a lot of steps to the hotel reception, worth giving him a tip because he works very hard. Whenever you want to go out you must walk up the steps, you will be out of breath when you reach the top and desperate for a cold beer (any excuse!). If you cannot walk too well you will struggle with these steps, however, this is all part of the beauty of the island. When you get to the top of the steps there are plenty of good restaurants.
We have recently returned after staying at Agali Houses for our sons wedding in Santorini. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The swimming pool and snack bar are fantastic. You will find very comfortable sun lounges and views that will take your breath away.

Our stay in the Superior Suite with Caldera View was wonderful. I did a lot of research before choosing this hotel and it met all of my expectations. The room was at the bottom of the property and felt very private. The view from the balcony was stunning. The room was large, clean and the bed was comfortable. As others have mentioned, there are a lot of stairs involved but that added to the private feeling of the hotel as it was away from the influx of cruise ship passengers on the main streets. The staff was great as well. Overall, I would recommend this hotel!

The pool area is fantastic was busy but always enough beds. Staff were amazing and carried bags up and down for us as a lot of steps. Good exercise! Lots of restaurants and shops at top of stairs or an easy 10min walk to Thera or easy to organise transfer to Oia through hotel. Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

United KingdomGreat location looking over the Caldera, the views are incredible. Very clean all over the hotel, staff are so helpful and friendly. Huge shout out to the guys who carry the luggage to and from street level as it’s a lot of steps to come down/up. The steps are a lot (from our room to street level 132) but we just took our time, took pics at different levels which broke it up so that made it more manageable. Don’t be put off by the steps though as the hotel is incredible, the views are stunning and the staff are great!
