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.).

New ZealandWe caught the bus from the airport to the central bus station and walked to Ersi Villas - which is only about 800m but is uphill and on cobblestones and uneven concrete - and it was really hot. Next time we would book a pick-up.
The patio garden is a lovely quiet oasis. Good location for the price, although there are a lot of steps (like everywhere in Santorini) to get up to the main square. The staff were friendly and helpful and gave us some great tips on things to see and do. Having the pool to cool down in at end of the day was lovely. Great to have a small terrace to sit out on.

United StatesThe uphill walk with luggage and the long stairs to and from the hotel. Nothing to do with the property:)
I loved the room we stayed at and all of the staff and hotel communication. Milos (I think that’s his name) at the front desk organized transport and gave us some quick tips and was available to help us with anything we needed. Ilias was also great with inquiries and check ins via WhatsApp. There was a great restaurant Osmo right by the hotel. Highly recommend

ItalyEverything was clean, tidy and very pretty. The Studio was equipped with a kitchenette, silverware and everything that we needed to cook inside. The atmosphere was lovely, as well as the location, two minutes from the amazing sunset of Firostefani. The staff was the best part: nice, kind and very available for information, advice and more. Great stay!

HungaryWifi was a weak point: slow and sometimes the sign was lost. Pillows were very thick (and thus uncomfortable in long run), although this is typical in Greece.
Ersi Villas has a good location close to the centre of Firostefani. Our host, Elios was very kind, helping us with several advices. The property looks like an oasis with its wonderful plants and pool. Recommended.

Friendliness of staff. Cleanliness of whole property. Nice communal areas with beautiful plants and trees. Being able to see sun rise from balcony and room. Clean, inviting pool. Close enough to Fira centre and great for nearby Firostefani.

JerseyNo Fault.
We did like the greenery of the property. It brightens up your day and it gives you a nice breeze. We did like the location as it leads you to two square of the island. Firostefani Square who have stunning views and not crowded. And close to Fira square too by foot and accessible to bus stops. The Location have few restaurants around and Mini stores. Rooms are being cleaned everyday. Towels changed too. Not forgetting the clean swimming pool and complimentary choices of teas and coffees! Nice and Trustworthy Staff. Most importantly , although Ersi Villa is accessible to some touristic spots, location is away from hustle and bustle of the crowd. That makes you relax and have a good sleep after a long day out in the sun! Highly recommended!

HungaryWe had an amazing stay in Ersi Villas. The hospitality of Elias and Nick is fantastic. They helped us in everything (ex. programs, transfers, vehaicle hire). Ersi Villas is near the center of Firostefani and Fira is near, as well (10 minutes walk). Ersi Villas has a beautiful common area, which is look like a little oasis. I recommend it, if you want a good place to relax in Santorni! :)

United KingdomThe property is in lovely condition. The rooms were spacious, the beds were huge and very comfortable. We had a private balcony. The pool was perfect, quite cold but refreshing given the hot weather! Lots of sun chairs around the pool both in the shade and sun. Free coffee from the coffee machine in the morning was a lovely addition. The property is a short walk to the picturesque firostefani. Great value for money!
