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.).

The family owners of the hotel were very friendly, especially in term of children, helpful and flexible! Surprisingly we got a lot of food from their own farm and our small child was even allowed to visit the farm. It was very special for us, thanks a million!

SwedenAmazing staff and being this close to the beautiful Agios Stefanos beach (several people outside of the hotel say they think it's the best beach on Kos) is a thing of luxury on it's own. The room, while fairly basic, had everything we needed. The beds are very firm, which we don't mind, but if you prefer a soft bed they may not be for you. The hotel itself is in a quiet area but only two minutes from a small supermarket and five minute from the beach. The breakfast was good and had enough choice to not get bored after a few nights. In summary, a good and affordable hotel with great staff and a lovely beach nearby.

TurkeyAlthough we arranged the pick up with the hotel a couple weeks prior to our arrival, they cancelled the pick up last nighyt. We were just asked to take a cab and the tone of the message was quite tense. The welcome to the hotel was unfriendly and the check in process took longer than iy should be. The hotel needa some renovation as well

United KingdomThe hotel was in a perfect location, 3 minutes away from one of the best beaches in kos, close to a super furbish supermarket and to a lots of local restaurants on the beach. The hotel is nice and has a nice swimming pool, and has a playground area where kids can play. Very good homemade food , nice and simple breakfast with all local products. It is a family run hotel and everyone is super kind and try to accommodate you the best they can. I would recommend this hotel to everyone!

GermanyThe kitchenette had no frying pan. There was no WiFi signal in the room. To get some signal, I had to put my mobile phone next to the window facing the pool area.
Nice inexpensive family-friendly hotel not far from the airport of Kos. It has two playgrounds for kids, two swimming pools for adults and kids, a lot of fruit and olive trees on the premises. A pebble beach is 5 minutes walk away. A nicer sandy beach with shallow waters is located further 200 m away, just opposite the Kastri islet. A small supermarket/convenient store is also near. One can have decent meals in the snack bar next to the swimming pool. Some reviewers wrongly claimed that the swimming pool is open only until 18:00. It is untrue, they should better read what is written on the signboard. Namely, the lifeguards are on duty until 18:00, but the swimming pool is actually open until 21:00.

Czech RepublicBasically nothing.
Great place to stay in Kefalos. Bus stop, shop and car rental right outside the hotel. All inclusive was really great, a lot of options of Greek food. For the money spend it was really good. Beach is also really close and from what we have visited on the island, its really quite and basically the nicest on the island, and without big waves.

Excellent family run hotel. Nothing is too much trouble they go above and beyond with hospitality. Food excellent and reasonably priced 😀 The pool area and pool is very well maintained. No shortage of sunbeds so no mad rush in the morning 😁 Location is good for the beach ⛱️, supermarket and restaurants. Kefalos is ideal for anyone with walking difficulties as the main resort is flat. I will be visiting chrysoulas again 😁😁😁

Slovenia- our room was very small (we could barely fit our suitcases on the ground, as there wasn't any empty space in the closet) - the bathroom had the smallest possible shower (less leg room than Ryanair's airplanes), that had a shower curtain which has defenitely seen better days (just like the majority of theother furniture); it was impossible not to touch the curtain while showering, and the bathroom was flooded after showering anyways - the only table was outside on the terrace, but the terrace itself didn't have any cover and offered no shade during the day; the terrace was also bigger than our room - charging extra for the AC
- staff was nice - cleaning lady was very sweet

GreeceThe room had been made up for a couple and child rather than 3 adults, so we were missing a sheet. I didn't realise until the next morning, but it would have been given if I had spotted it.
The whole place is amazing - vintage, retro, very cool. It was not too expensive, but had everything you needed. Run by a family, so they know all about anything you need to know and can help. Amazing beach very close, walkable. The pool was amazing too and not too busy. Great food, the best gyros we had the whole holiday.
