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.).

NetherlandsYou have a panoramatic sea view but on the bottom of your “screen “ is the roof of opposite building- maybe the neighbours could make it a green roof to contribute to lovely views.
Marvellous big garden in the patio. The owners have a true Greek open hearts. Located super centrally with bakery, tavernas, beach, port, shops..all maximum one minute distance.

United KingdomEverything was 100% perfect
We stayed here last year and loved it so much we had to come back. These are great rooms right in the centre of Chora Sfakion and right next to a lovely bakery for breakfasts. Giannis and Niki are wonderful hosts who make you feel really welcome. They have a lovely garden at the back where you can sit in peace in the shade and if you go out the front door you're 30 seconds from the harbour and the shops and restaurants. No distance from the ferry port. Such a beautiful place to stay - you never want to leave.

United KingdomHoped for a view of the sea, but it's just around the corner. Not as easy to find as I thought, but that's because the sign is behind you as you come up the hill. I walked around town twice before I spotted it!
Lovely room, great location, friendly host, fantastic shower - and the added bonus of the secret garden

United Kingdomcant fault this hotel, probably the best i've been to.
Had done proper review before but seems to have got lost so will do a quick one again.Rooms were fabulous, very big, all modern, recently refurbished. nice bowl and cutlery left so you can make own food. these were cleaned for you which was a nice touch.the rooms were cleaned daily and to a high standard.Location was great, maybe 50 metres to the water. nice restaurants on front. ended up getting the boat to Loutro on all 3 of my days. These small boats were very enjoyable and great value.The owners are very friendly and helpful. I spent a lot of my time hiking, there is a booklet in the shops with maps of walking routes. These hikes were probably the highlight of my holiday, especially the one up to Anopolis. the walk to sweet water beach was safe.

NetherlandsAbsolutely nothing.
Everything was absolutely fabulous. Nice room, wonderful bed, a little balcony and a spacious spacious courtyard. Fridge and water cooker in the room, and simple breakfast stuff and coffee and tea provided every morning. Giannis and Nikki are wonderful hosts, making us feel right at home. And great tips for hiking, pointing us to Aradena gorge (which we didn’t know) and asking around about a gorge we had found ourselves (and which turned out to be a bad idea this year).

Our extended family stayed in the top floor apartment. We visited each day and must admit we were envious. There was an amazing view of the harbor, a beautiful rooftop deck for sunning. We were always greeted at the entry with a broad smile and offers of help even though we were not the primary guests.

United KingdomHard to think of anything, steps maybe.
Purposely refurbished rooms to a very good standard, the bathroom in particular with large walk-in shower. From the balcony had a great view of the sea and part mountains. Location is very central to the village with a 10 metre stroll to a very good bakery for breakfast. The hosts were exceptionally generous with their help and advise way above what I expected.

GermanyThis is really the best place to stay in Sfakia / akn Chora Sfakion. The room is very tidy, and equipped with everything you need. Your host answeres every question (and sorry for me being so, I had plenty) within minutes. In the fridge you even find unexpected stuff for a small breakfast incl. juice, water, butter, jam and Zwieback. We had a balkony and the place has a garden which is unique in Southern Crete. We had taxi transfer from Chania airport arranged by our host Nikki. And last to mention: eat dinner at Nikos Tavern. Very best restaurant in town and beyond.

ItalyThere is no washing machine. Two bathrooms are indicated but in reality they are not two complete bathrooms, in one there is a sink and shower, in the other there is a toilet and sink
I stayed with my family in the terrace apartment with a beautiful sea view. The terrace is very large and equipped for outdoor dining and it was so nice that we almost always had dinner there. The apartment is cleaned every day and water and juices are brought in every day. The host is very welcoming and hospitable, upon arrival he gave us various gifts such as wine, water, fruit juices, jams and butter for breakfast and when we left he gave us some local products as well as a postcard greetings signed by them which I really appreciated. I had a great time at Sofia's lovely room and the hosts make their guests feel pampered
