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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

CanadaThere was nothing we didn't like. Everything exceeded our expectations.
Edem was absolutely wonderful. The staff take care of your every need, and the room we stayed in was excellent. Everything was super clean, the breakfast was great, and we decided to also order dinner which was great as well! We really liked how quiet it was, and Oia is only a short walk away. If we visit again, we'll end up staying here for sure.

Our stay at Edem Boutique Hotel was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the pristine cleanliness and the elegant design of the hotel. Every corner was immaculately maintained, and it was clear that great attention was paid to ensuring that the environment was both welcoming and comfortable. The service was truly outstanding. Every member of the staff greeted us with a smile and went above and beyond to ensure that our every need was met. Their kindness and professionalism really made us feel at home. We were particularly touched by the genuine warmth and hospitality we experienced throughout our stay. A special mention must go to George, whose kindness and incredible spirit truly left a lasting impression. He was always ready with a smile and helpful advice, and his positive energy was contagious. George is a rare gem, and his presence added an extra layer of joy to our stay. He truly embodies the heart of this wonderful hotel. We can’t recommend Edem Boutique Hotel highly enough. Our experience was flawless, and we can’t wait to return to this beautiful place. Thank you for making our stay so memorable

George is the best host. All the complimentary drinks, fruits, and prosecco were highly appreciated. We had the best breakfast overlooking the sea. The place is also perfectly decorated. We’ll definitely stay in Edem again when we return to Santorini as it is a respite from the busy Oia. I will highly recommend to anyone to stay in Edem Boutique Hotel.

I had an absolutely amazing time at this hotel. They made sure that there was someone to pick my luggage at the Car Park of Finnika when my taxi arrived. The hosts- Jorge (I hope I got his name right) and Kabba who met me at the car park were so pleasant throughout my stay. As a solo traveller, I felt very welcome by everyone. It’s a small beautiful but perfect hotel. My Breakfast order was taken and I got woken up for breakfast everyday. I had free water all of the time and got some drinks to refresh. The rooms were clean, tidy and spacious. The roof top had really good views for night and daytime with the lovely sunbeds as well. Only 20mins walk to the Oia sunset and you can get to tourist attractions too. It’s close enough to Oia but far enough from the tourist crowd and in a nice hilly village. I will definitely come back here if I am in Santorini again. The salads, meals and breakfast tasted really good. Everyone was so nice and I felt like a princess compared to other hotels in other cities I traveled in the past.

New ZealandThe hotel was very close to Oia, walking distance to see the sunset no uphills. The staff were lovely carried out luggage for us, had a glass of Prosecco on arrival. The lady very helpful gave us information about the island and where to visit. Breakfast was amazing will good variety to choose from.

CanadaPerfect stay for Santorini! The hotel is super close to Oia - 10 or 15 minutes walk - but gives you the quiet and privacy of a stay in a smaller village. The private hot tub and terrace have amazing sea views - and during August you can see the sunset from it (at least from mine). Also perfect to enjoy your breakfast in the terrace watching the sea! All the Edem team is very kind and attentive, always making sure you have everything you need - and always ready to share tips and what to do in the island! A car is recommended if you want to go around the island and see some beaches - but if you want to mostly stay in Oia, you are safe without a car.

Everything about our trip was amazing. EDEM BOUTIQUE HOTELS staff went over and beyond to make it a good stay. They made it feel like home from home. Breakfast on our own private terrace was a beautiful personal touch. Would definitely recommend it... Will be planning our next holiday at Edem real soon Special thank you to Melina, who upgraded our room to the cave as it was our anniversary. Welcomed us from the start to end of our stay like family. Melina you're the best.

South AfricaOnly area for improvement would be some additional shelf space for clothing in the room but this is minor in comparison to the positives!
The hotel is an oasis in a traditional village. It is perfect for a romantic getaway in Santorini. The staff are amazing! So friendly and made sure that our stay was exceptional. Fantastic attention to detail to all aspects of the hotel. True passion for making the best experience for their customers is demonstrated in what the hotel is achieving! Three great restaurants a few minutes away from the hotel & Oia is 10min easy walk so the hotel is ideally positioned in the North of Santorini.

Our stay at Edem was nothing short of amazing. Melina and George were exceptional hosts to ourselves as guests. The hotel, the facilities, the breakfast, the staff who worked there phenomenal. We originally booked this accommodation as the reviews were so good and it did not disappoint. It was noted about poor WiFi somewhere but the WiFi is also excellent we streamed a tv show on the iPad just fine and my partner was able to complete some work with no issues. Nothing was too much trouble for Melina and George, they made sure everything was taken care of!

United KingdomLike VIPs. As if everything was catered around us and we were their special guests.
Edem was a wondaful place to stay, it has amazing staff who made us feel very special and they were very attentive. You get to choose your breakfast and the portions are very generous. The location was just perfect. It's away from all the tourists but a very small walk from Oia. It's peaceful, quite and has a great view of the sea. You also have great restaurants near by if you want to go for a late dinner or just have a great mean without going to Oia. We also had dinner a couple of times at the hotel which was great. The burger and pesto past are a must have. The staff made us feel part of a family and we for sure miss them. Melina was wondaful and gave up recommendations and even called and booked us a Beach club ( Jojo Beach Club ). If you come there with no plans not to worry Meline will help you sort out everything. they even provided us with transport to and from the beach club. we truly felt like VIP's. I would 10000% recommend. last but not lest the cave room was stunning and massive. It was like no other place I have stayed in and iv travelled quite a bit. you have your own rooftop with a hottub, sunbed and we breakfast area which was a wonderful way to start your day with great food and a view of the sea. Not forgetting the sunset view from your rooftop area. Miss you all at Edem. thank you for our unforgettable experience. Shout out to the owner, Melina, Baka and all the staff.

PolandNothing! It’s important to remember that most of the hotels in Santorini are accessible through stairs due to Island’s position.
Everything! Location - The hotel is in Finikia Village which is very close to Oia town. Therefore, you can stay near the main tourist spot without the hassle of crowd and noise. Hotel - The cave house structure is extremely beautiful with all amenities available. We were upgraded to suite and we enjoyed pool in a private space with breathtaking views. We had outdoor breakfast arrangements and breakfast options are pretty good. Hospitality- The hosts are very cordial. They arranged everything we needed or requested. They also took very good care of our son. It was very unlike a hotel and more like home!!
