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.).

NetherlandsThe location is good but to go to the center and back to the hotel without a car or atv is very hard. especially not to be underestimated with the warm sun
We were welcomed with open arms. The receptionist was really helpful we were able to contact her with all our questions, even when my partner lost his wallet late at night, an effort was made to contact the police. We enjoyed our stay immensely and we were lucky to have our own garden with a ‘private’ jacuzzi.

United KingdomMoistures were not easy go out from bath room, so we had to move almost all staffs outside of bath room. It might be helpful if there is some function which can release moistures...!
I really liked the bath outside, it was so nice! We were able to enjoy talking while enjoying the time by drinking juices which were provided daily :)

United KingdomI have to mention that the beds were a touch hard - but Irini is aware of this 🤣 The walk to town would not suit someone with mobility issues. I wouldn’t say any of this was a “dislike” though.
Great accommodation just a short walk from Thira town. It’s a bit steep to walk there but no problem if you’re fairly fit and mobile. Irini was friendly, helpful and was a lovely host. We had the family room and there was plenty of space for three adults, a baby and all of the accompanying paraphernalia. The hotel was lovely and peaceful. A lovely place to stay if you need to be fairly near the main port, airport and the town. Irini fixed up transportation for us which was first-class.

IsraelThe location is overall good, 10 min from fira center, but to get to/from the hotel without a car/atv is kinda hard especially with luggage. The jacuzzi in our room wasnt exactly like the photos (we had a first floor room and it felt less private then we thought) but we still really enjoyed it
Irini, the hostess, is extremely nice and caring, she guided us about the island and made sure we have everything we needed. Great value for money and everything is really clean

Villa Galaxy was definitely one of the best places we have ever stayed in. First of all, great and most helpful staff ever - Ms. Irini greeted us warmly, and helped us a lot during our stay. Thanks to her recommendations and tips we were able to travel throughout whole island with ease. Room, was comfortable, very neat and cleaned daily. Additionally our room had private hot tub, which was a great addition to already perfect place.

Bosnia and HerzegovinaIt was really pleasure to enjoy during those few days at this beautiful apartment. We experienced a really great time and we was very satisfied with our apartment and our private garden with nice hot tub 😁. Our host Irini (if I’m not wrong about her name) was very kind and helpful. She provided us a lot of information about the island itself and locations to be visited also she was in touch with us all the time.Anything we needed (like wine bottle opener,iron...) was brought at our apartment in just few minutes by herself.I’m really out of words how great everything was in overall.I’ll gladly recommend this apartment for everyone who is about to visit Santorini and if we come back to Santorini we’ll definitely stay again at Villa Galaxy 😁

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Villa Galaxy Santorini, and it was an amazing experience! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the friendly staff, the beautiful decor, and the overall ambiance of the hotel. The location is ideal, with easy access to public transportation and plenty of local attractions within walking distance. The room was spacious, clean, and well-appointed, with a comfortable bed and plenty of amenities to make my stay comfortable. The hotel staff was always available to assist with any requests or questions, and they went above and beyond to make sure my stay was enjoyable. Overall, I had an amazing stay at the Villa Galaxy Santorini and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. The level of service, attention to detail, and overall experience make it one of the best hotels I've stayed in. I look forward to returning soon and experiencing this hotel's hospitality again. Thank you, Villa Galaxy Santorini, for making my stay so memorable!
