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.).

United StatesThe last 400 m to our stay was an uphill rocky dirt road. Go slow. More of nuisance than anything else
The rooms are very clean and each room has a promitory view of the Ionian Sea. Beautiful sunsets.But the real gem is the cool breeze from being near the peak of the mountain. The breeze is cool and refreshing.Many guest just sat on the veranda, sipping local wine, and just stared at the sunset. The staff was very helpful. They had valuable insights on beaches and local restaurants. They also offer beach umbrellas to borrow.

SwitzerlandIt would have been better if you could eat dinner at the hotel and fully enjoy the sunset and views.
The location was great and the view is magnificent! It’s A slice of heaven. The staff were very friendly and aimed to attend to all requests. The ice bath therapy session was excellent and a real bonus to be able to do this on site. The rooms were spacious, light with great views. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was beautifully designed.

NetherlandsAs per other reviews, we also noticed that bathroom needs very very deep cleaning. Constantly people at the property, who are not guests and not workers, smoking, having breakfast, enjoying sunbed. A bit weird. Also you can not lock the door from inside, we asked host to check it, he said it’s safe here, no problem to sleep with unlocked door , never came back with soliton. So we had to sleep with unlocked door, which we found very bad; security for guests is a basic necessity.
Absolutely beautiful view, spacious room, great breakfast, beautiful swimming pool area, comfortable bed, guy at the reception was positive and smiling. Property has an amazing potential, but unfortunately there is too many small details which needs to be fixed, so in general it gives you not worthy the price.

SloveniaWell, the road. It's alright, but being uncomfortable on unpaved roads can make you a bit nervous here. Also, the pool was a bit dirty, still had a great swim in it.
It was one of the nicest sunsets I've ever had! The staff was crazy nice and provided us with everything we wanted. Also, the breakfast is delicious! The location is another excellent thing at Secret Hill. You're near the nicest beaches in Lefkada. Also, it's very peaceful and quiet.

Stunning views from the room, pool and kitchen/lounge area. Great breakfast, lovely cocktails, friendly staff and good recommendations for local restaurants & things to do. Amazing night sky for stargazing (saw shooting stars every night).

United StatesThe road is difficult if you’re not used to driving on curvy, gravel mountain roads. It is not fully paved and only the portion near the hotel has lights, so it’s especially difficult at night. Hotel staff told us that the reason it’s not fully paved and lit is an issue with the municipality. It’s quite far from everything, so you’ll need a car to get around. The bathroom is in need of a deep clean, especially in the shower where there was mold in the corners. Lastly, the door to the room was confusing and difficult to lock. The housekeeper did not lock it after cleaning. We had to ask staff the following day how to lock the door and Vasilis was very helpful in explaining how to do it and apologized that the other staff member who checked us in did not properly orient us to the room. It’s on a hill and you’re in nature so expect bugs. We had an issue with ants but the housekeeper didn’t have any bug spray. This place is a gem in the making just in need a few improvements to make it fantastic overall.
Another reviewer said it perfectly - it’s not for everyone. The property is remotely situated on a hill, as described. I truly enjoyed that it was so quiet and peaceful, a true retreat from the stress of life, though this may be a con for some. The view is stunning and the sunset view is incredible. Vasilis had a very calming energy and was helpful during our stay.

AustraliaThe room was not as clean as we would have hoped. The previous occupant’s rental car documentation was in the room. The toilet had a half used roll of toilet paper when we got there. There was hair in the shower and the bathroom shower gel was half used. Location wise it is very remote - but we knew this when booking so it didn’t bother us.
The facilities and setting are beyond gorgeous. Vasili goes out of his way and is the reason we have rated the property so highly. He went above and beyond for us and made our stay an absolute pleasure. We had an issue with the air con and he arranged to have it fixed within 24 hours. He is the best!

NetherlandsThe road up the hill to the property is quite tricky, the elevation is very high and two cars don’t fit easily in two directions. Not for beginner drivers Water in the pool was a bit cold Due to summer conditions there were a lot of insects entering the room, mostly crickets and ants. Couldn’t leave the door open because of that, but not a big issue Would be great if dinner was also available for ordering at the location, as they have such a nice view facilities
Rooms were spacious and decorated in a light mediterranean style. The view from the top of the hill is breathtaking! The staff were very warm and welcoming, especially Vasilis. He made our stay much more enjoyable Breakfast was amazing, best we’ve had in a long time, all vegetarian They also had good and stable internet, which is not always the case in such remote locations.

BulgariaThey did not clean the room nor changed the towels for 3 days. It is not a big deal but, after all, it is not a cheap place.
At the top of a windy hill. Bear in mind that it is cold in the evening. Breakfast as an option is good.

Vassilis, remember this name, because this will be the person who will create the best holiday vibe for you. Thank you once again. We will definitely come back a 3rd time after the amazing treatment you showed us and great job on the extra services you started offering. Next time I’m booking a massage with a view!
