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 KingdomNit picking now - coffee wasn’t great & not much variety on breakfast unless you were will to pay more.
The staff were amazing, so friendly & helpful & gave great recommendations for bars & restaurants in the area. The room was a high specification, water everyday & in close proximity to all the amenities. Amazing sunsets.

The hotel was gorgeous - beautiful property, clean large rooms, all the amenities you could possibly need. The basic continental breakfast was better than expected. Property was a 10 minute walk from the caldera and straightforward. Staff went above and beyond to make us comfortable, carry luggage, assist with taxis, and provided tons of tips for our entire stay and remaining trip locations.

United StatesWe loved our room but I think the pictures were a little deceiving especially for the price. We definitely could not see the sunset from our room and the pictures looked more like the rooms that had a shared 'Private Pool'. The pictures also made the room look much bigger. Additionally it is further from town the walk isn't too bad but it is very steep and after 12 days of traveling we were getting tired of the tiring walks so we had to pay for a taxi most of the time. For the price of the hotel I think they should have a shuttle or at least a discounted shuttle for people going into Oia
We had a private sunset view room with a heated plunge pool. We loved the privacy and how clean the room was. I thought it was a perfect place to finish off our honeymoon and truly relax after traveling so much. The staff was extremely nice and very helpful at all hours and we really appreciated all the suggestions and help they gave us throughout our stay. The free breakfast was delicious as well.

United KingdomNothing - we wished we could have stayed longer. Loud obnoxious group of Americans arrived towards the end of our stay that could be heard shouting and swearing at eachother in the evening but the team did have a word with them on various occaisions to keep the noise down and stop the bad language
Everything was great. Hotel is lovely and the team were so welcoming and friendly. Tony and the F&B team went above and beyond and the reception team were great in arranging a late check out. Location is great with large parking area which if great if you hire a car to tour the island. We will be back next year for sure !

SwitzerlandAll perfection!
Everything about the hotel was perfect! It is out of the main area of Oia, but this is a good thing as it’s only a 10 minute walk into busy Oia. The hotel staff are AMAZING. They could not be more friendly, or welcoming, or helpful. We would definitely recommend Secret View to anyone visiting Oia.

AustraliaFood and drinks were quite expensive. Water wasn’t really provided so we ended up going up the road to the local shop and buying several larger bottles as you cannot drink the water in Santorini. Also I had about 20 euro in coins stolen from my room by some of the staff that serviced the room so I wasn’t happy as that’s equivalent to around $40 Australian dollars. I get often people leave a tip for staff or cleaners but to take the whole pile of coins I had on the table is just plain theft
We like that the rooms were spacious and that you could walk out of your room straight into the pool. The rooms were also serviced regularly. It was also quite close to Oia

Exceptionally friendly and attentive staff throughout the hotel from the manager to the housekeeping staff. Nothing was too much trouble. The location was beautiful and quiet compared to the hotels in the urbanised areas. Sunsets were sensational. Restaurant food was exquisite and the breakfasts were plentiful and delicious.

AustraliaWe had booked for a rooftop a la carte dinner in advance to enjoy the sunset which we were really looking forward to. However I was informed the night before we arrived that they had changed it to a BBQ party dinner for all guests with a set menu of 40 Euro each. Although they had live music, we didn't see the value in the food. The meat was quite dry and cold. We certainly had better meals on our travels that were much better value.
The property is very new, clean and modern. The staff were very helpful and it was walking distance to the town of Oia. The pool is great and we had no problems getting lounge chairs to lie on. The free welcome cocktail was delicious and a nice touch!
