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 KingdomGorgeous little hotel, in the heart of Rhodes Town. Perfect for exploring, with all local attractions and wonderful restaurants right on your doorstep. The hotel felt like an oasis of calm away from the hustle and bustle. Katerina and her husband were very attentive and kind, and always on hand to help with recommendations for where to eat and what to do. Fabulous breakfast, served in the beautiful courtyard. We were always the only two having breakfast, so it felt very private. Would thoroughly recommend Porolithos Boutique Hotel.

United StatesBetter ventilation for the rest room. Maybe installing a fan.
Portolithos Boutique Hotel is a very special place - a well-preserved ancient treasure, meticulously cared for by Katerina and her husband. Their warm and welcoming hospitality is beyond comparison! They arranged taxi for us from and to the airport. They showed us the sites to visit, places to eat, and when to avoid the crowds. They made us feel like we’re guests to their home, and not just hotel guests. The breakfast was the best part! Beautifully served every morning. Beyond our expectations! Thank you for making our first visit to Greece, and our stay at your lovely hotel, an unforgettable experience. Thanks Katerina for the special treat you made for Connie every morning 😊

AustraliaThat we only stayed one night!
11/10 Gorgeous boutique hotel situated in the medieval part of Rhodes. Walking distance to main attractions. Katerina went out of her way to met us in the square and escort us to the hotel. She welcomed us with warmth, water and sweets. She gave us a rundown of what to see in Rhodes and a tour of the hotel. Katerina upgraded our room also. The rooms are stunning. They have put in a lot of time and effort in saving this piece of history. We have never experienced a welcome like this in all our travels. We had an early morning start and she packed us sandwiches and drinks! Not only is the hotel exceptional but the service provided was way beyond anything we have ever experienced. Do not hesitate and book this fabulous hotel! Thank you so much and be proud of your hospitality!

AustraliaHaving to leave.
We visited Rhodes three times recently while touring the Dodecanese islands. On each occasion we stayed at three Porolithos because it is beautifully located in the Old Town and because Katerina and her family welcome you into their family as dear friends. The rooms are each unique and tastefully decorated. Breakfast is an event with pastries, fresh fruit, yoghurt and honey, toast and delicious eggs. Katerina has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the Old Town and a capacity to suggest just the right restaurant for your mood and taste. We would not consider staying anywhere else in Old Rhodes than Porolithos Boutique Hotel.

United KingdomEverything. The location is very central but also just magical, the conversion of the original building is so well done and it has to be seen to be believed. Lovingly restored, beautiful room, comfy bed, incredible people who went above and beyond in every aspect. Super clean, they also installed a water filter so you could drink the water from the taps, amazing shower but the highlight was always the breakfast. Every morning was something new and everything was so fresh, local produce and tasted unbelievable. Our trip was already good but staying here made it perfect. I can't recommend this place highly enough for the location and amenities but the owners make it, they are the most incredibly thoughtful and generous people I have ever had the honour of meeting. We will absolutely be back!

It was very unique - full of history. The restoration was spectacular - and right in the middle of the Old Town. Close to everything! Katerina and her husband running the hotel were magnificent. So friendly, kind and helpful. They couldn’t do enough for us. I’ve never experienced this level of hospitality before. Right from greeting and welcoming us, to the beautiful room, delicious breakfasts and finally waving us off on our departure. An incredible property and our stay I will never forget. I HIGHLY recommend this property.
