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 StatesThe toughest part this may be the walk to town as it’s on the street that has traffic going into town, but everyone walks on the side and it’s totally fine! Not some thing that this property can change but just something to be aware of if you have mobility concerns.
This property is absolutely perfect for anybody looking to stay close to Oia but away from the crowds. It’s about a 15 minute walk to the start of the center of town is located in a quiet neighborhood that surprised us with several amazing restaurants with beautiful sunset views better than some of the places you can eat at. The hosts were incredibly helpful and helped us with our luggage and took accommodations for the breakfast that’s provided at the cute table outside of your room. Everyone is incredibly friendly and we would love to come back!

AustraliaIt was unfortunately too cold to use the pool, which is unheated. There was no bar or other facilities that you might normally expect in a 4-star hotel. The bed was fixed to the wall meaning one person needed to climb out to get past their partner. The shower was spacious but only had a hand-help option, which seemed surprising.
We stayed here for 5 days and it was wonderful. Santorini is a fascinating island and was so much more than a beach resort. The best part of Lotza is it's location in the small village of Finikia that is outside of Oia and is easy to reach but away from the tourist crush (and it gets very crushy in Oia and Fira). There are 3 excellent restaurants within a 2 minute walk and the fascinating Sigalas vineyard is a short walk down the hill. The manager was very responsive with our requests and the young man who brought us breakfast (on our own deck in the morning at a time of our choosing!) was extremely kind. We had a wonderful hot tub on our deck, which we enjoyed morning and evening! Loved the Greek architecture, which was unspoiled by high-rises or any modern monstrosities.

United KingdomThe only small thing was the jets in our jacuzzi didn't stay on longer than 40 seconds but im sure if we had mentioned it to the management they would've fixed it for us.
Breakfast was lovely, served on private terrace at a time we wanted. Place was spotless and staff took care of us, always available on WhatsApp if needed. Location was perfect for us, felt like a little local spot just an easy 10min stroll from Oia. Restaurants nearby were superb, some of the best meals I've tasted.

SingaporeBecause of the humidity in the area and maybe also the hot tub in the room, some things are quite moldy.

The apartment was super clean, the location was a little confusing as we got lost going back after viewing the sunset in Oia, the jacuzzi was 10/10, the design of the apartment was beautiful, had a cave feel about it. Breakfast was amazing, the staff were really polite and friendly and very helpful. Really enjoyed our stay

United StatesWhen we arrived in our rental car, there was a good bit of confusion. There is NO PARKING at the hotel: you park in a remote parking lot and walk to the unit. The remote parking lot was locked and we had to jam into a public lot until the gentleman from the hotel arrived (and he hauled our luggage to the hotel). In the end this was OK but sort of a shock upon first arrival.

United StatesDefinitely recommend them to add portable fans inside the room and upstairs as well. We did get really hot even with the A/C on as it turns off on its own so it never cooled down the apartment.
The apartment was awesome! We loved the indoor jacuzzi (even though we didn’t get to use it). The cave concept was so cute and fit us 4 girl’s comfortably. The staff was amazing and brought us breakfast in the morning each day to our patio. The host was nice and scheduled all our taxis and was reachable throughout our whole stay.

This is my first time writing a review. Just had to be done! Amazing place! The host Vasilis was very helpful from the moment we got there. He arranged for transport each time we needed it. The other staff were very friendly.The cave house is beautiful and specious. Nice outdoor jacuzzi, we enjoyed every evening. Nice breakfast served every morning. It's a 15-minute walk for the bus station and a 20-minute walk from Oia. I would highly recommend this place.
