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.).

IrelandNo ATM access close to hotel. This would be a handy addition in the locality.
Absolutely loved everything about my stay here, wished I could have stayed longer. Katarina and Georgios could not have been kinder more attentive hosts, the best ever in all my travels. The room was gorgeous with wrap balcony with pool and sea view. Very comfortable bed and pillows and with the sweetest, thoughtful touches, a complimentary large cold bottle of water in the fridge and bottle of local wine awaits and little lavender pouches on the bed. They both collected and dropped me off to and from the port free of charge and gave lots of useful and helpful tips on what to do during my stay. The hotel is situated in a small bay with crystal clear shallow waters protected from the wind with local friendly bars and restaurants. The hotel arranged for loungers here to be free with just drinks and food to pay for. The breakfast was immense and also free, yoghurt, fruit, granola, pasties, cakes, breads, cheese, meats, preserves, tea, coffee, juice and eggs of any kind made to order. Loved my stay here, cannot recommend highly enough and wish my stay was longer to discover more of this beautiful island and the spectacular buildings of the main town at the port also. Thank you so much Katarina and Georgios. X

IrelandKaterina was so helpful she provided so much information about the island and ensured our stay was a brilliant experience. Transfers were provided to the town and to the port with no payment excepected. The location is a bit quite and a bit away from the town but the bus stop is close so the town is accessible. If you are looking for somewhere peaceful it would be a great place to stay with a number of options for food and drink. We were also given an upgrade due to availability so we had an amazing view of the sea from our balcony. Taxi was only €12-14 to town if needed.

United KingdomThe staff are amazing, Katerina particularly went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had what we needed, she talked us through the island, sights, things we could do and other reccommendations as well as answered any questions we had. We could not thank her enough for making our stay so special. The location is fantastic, a beautiful beach just outside the door, beach front restaurants to choose from as well as the hotel providing a menu, convenient bus routes connecting to different parts of the island. Due to our ferry time being early in the morning, the bus would not have got us there on time, so the owner dropped us off at the port and made sure we arrived on time, the staff went above and beyond to make our stay perfect.

The welcome from the hosts katerina and spiros made me feel instantly welcome, they are fantastic hoteliers. Spiros offered a lift to the hotel and personally gave me a lift when I left. The room was lovely, nicely decorated, quiet and comfortable with a balcony with a great view of the bay. The pool area was very nice with well kept gardens with an outdoor area for having a good buffet breakfast. I would recommend Syros holidays to anyone.

United KingdomThe property is pretty basic, but given that you’re mostly outside it was totally fine. The pool area is lovely. It’s so convenient with buses, beach only a few steps away. But what makes it great is the staff and particularly the managers. They looked after us every little request with a smile and lots of generosity. I’d definitely go back again.

CroatiaVery small improvements, I would suggest more fruits / healthy options for breakfast. A reduction in use of plastic (but this is an issue all over Greece and beyond) in terms of plastic straws and plastic complimentary toiletries and the pillows made my neck a bit sore. All very minor things.
As per the other reviews Katerina is a host like no other. She makes you feel like she is inviting you into her home. Nothing is too much trouble. The food is lovely and good value. Pretty little pool and perfect location, literally steps away from the bay with a lovely beach, water sports kilt paddleboarding and canoeing and several restaurants serving all kinds of delights. We will definitely return!

BrazilI don’t like shower without box, the bathroom gets all wet every time we shower. But maybe it’s something local.
I think the highlight is the manager Katerina! She is very nice, helpful and hard-worker, it seems she never sleeps lol! The location is great, is a few steps from Vari beach but the bus stop is very close and it takes you to all main beaches and hot spots. The breakfast was very good and Eva and the other guy are very helpful as well! The room is quite and clean and the bed and pillow are comfortable!

AustriaThank you, Katerina and all the team! They welcomed us very warmly and nicely. Helpful for everything! And surprised by upgrading our room to a sea view which was so amazing! And one bottle of local wine was also waiting for us in the room. The room was very comfortable, big, and clean. Open buffet breakfast with a daily variety of options was delicious. The beautiful Vari beach is just in front. The bus stop is also 1 min. walking distance. They made us feel at home. A very relaxed and chill atmosphere overall. The sandy organized beach with the crystal clear refreshing sea is still in our mind. The hotel is just 15 min away from the city center. Thank you again Katerina for making this holiday unforgettable!

Germanythe rooms are clean but not the most modern (our bathroom was really small) but we didn’t care because we still had a wonderful time.
we had a wonderful stay. from our room we could see the stars. The hotel is basically on the beachfront and you can take the bus to reach the main town. the bus station is only a short 2 minute walk from the hotel. The hosts were extremely nice - they even picked us up from the port. we had a great time and will be back. The hotel is at the perfect spot to explore the whole island. You can have both a perfect beach experience and explore the wonderful city of ermoupoli

United KingdomThere was a slight lack of storage space for clothes in the room, but it did not spoil our stay in anyway. All the positives totally outweighed this minor detail.
The breakfast was excellent with a good variety of things to eat, plus freshly cooked omelette each morning. The location was also excellent being a 2 minute walk from the attractive beach and restaurants/bars. There two mini markets also very close by and a5 minute walk to the bus stop where you could catch a bus to the capital Ernaupoli or to other beaches on the island. A big bonus was being picked up and dropped off at the port on arrival and departure. We must mention Katarina whose hospitality was outstanding. She was so helpful with everything we needed to know.
