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 KingdomShame it was only for two nights. Would come back and stay longer next time
Homeric Poems is absolutely unique and made Santorini the main highlight of our trip to Greece. The staff (special shout out to Nadia at reception and Nik bar/restaurant) went out of their way to make it a special stay for us. They arranged an amazing catamaran sunset tour and scooter so we could get around as well as booking restaurants/beach clubs while we were there. Not only is the location and view of the hotel incredible but it is a very relaxing place to unwind from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the island.

SwitzerlandEverything 10/10 — the staff, the facilities, the room. It’s worth the price. Homeric Poems has an ideal location that’s walking distance to great restaurants in Fira but also not in the super crowded touristy areas. You’ll have plenty of peace to relax at the hotel. It’s so beautiful that people walking by try to enter to take pictures! A big thank you to the amazing staff, in particular Stefanos and Karolina who were always there with a smile and priceless human attention & kindness. You can count on the front desk to help you with restaurant bookings and anything else you may need! We really appreciated that.

NetherlandsIt should recommand the tenant go to the hotel by texi. We lived in oia in the first day and then went to the fira by bus. Because there were only 1 km from the bus station to the hotel we first tried to walk to the hotel but it failed. It is no possible to walk to the hotel on the mountain with two packages. SO conect to the hotel to arrange a car take you to the hotel!

United StatesThe beds were slightly uncomfortable and the bathroom didn't leave much space for privacy (the doors didn't close all the way).
It's worth booking this hotel just for the pool and the view. The view from the pool is by far the best in Fira area and it's very secluded, unlike many other spots on the island where you're on the street or can easily be seen from by the mass of people. The location is also perfectly situated between Fira and Imerovigli. Everyone was so nice too- the service was amazing!

United KingdomThe location of the hotel is very convenient as its 20min away from the beaches of the south and east sides of the island and from Oia. The room we had had an amazing view and offered some privacy which is not always easy to find. The staff was wonderful and helped us with all the beaches and restos recommendations and bookings. We had a wonderful stay.

Amazing stay at Homeric Poems. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly. The localisation is amazin, just a 10min walk from the busy Fira (south) and 10min from Imerovigli (north). The inifinity pool, although of modest size, is one of the micest we've seen on the island with great views of the caldera. The rooms were amazing. We stayed in one of the cheaper rooms which felt much bigger than advertised on the site and had amazing views of the caldera. We spent the last night in the honey moon suite which has both a private pool and a jacuzzi, communicating directly from the bedroom. Breakfast is amazing, served on your private terrace at time of your chosing. Couldn't recommend Homeric Poems more!

Amazing view of course. Private balcony. Good Breakfast served to balcony. Very effective and quiet AC. Very clean and well maintained. Much better than the last place we booked Staff super helpful and friendly. The only reason I did not give 5 because just like all places in Santorini on the cliff they are very expensive for what you get. Except the view and location of course.

Switzerlandositive / view and location but the property does not qualify for 5 start status both in terms of amenities and service. We were offered the top apartment which had very deep long stair cases to access to the restaurant and pool.The pool had a shaking aka broken steel walk way in the water. The attitude of the staff was not to receive feedback and concerns, instead they seem to bask in the glory that they have very good ratings online which is the reason we booked them in the first place. The biggest dissappoinment was when my husband requested for a few mins delay in checkout post 11 am / the staff threatened us to charge for delay by the minute. This was not stated in the booking confirmation so is not a standard policy. We did not find the experience pleasant and would not recommend this place to family and friends. We were a family of 4 global travellers travelling with teen kids. We have stayed in numerous hotels in Santorini and this one has been the biggest disappointment for the money they charge
