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.).

AustraliaNothing. It was perfect.
We loved everything, especially the outdoor jacuzzi and the renovated bathrooms. Irini was super sweet, we adore her! She was super welcoming and looked after our luggage as our flight was later during the day. She gave us refreshing beverages and sweets while we wait and made us feel right at home. Thank you so much Irini, come visit us in Melbourne Australia one day!

United KingdomThe staff are really helpful here whether you need help hiring a car or a boat or with parking they go the extra mile to do what they can, they're always only a message away and the place was clean and in a good location for Thira (Fira) town.

United KingdomThe whole place was amazing, so not a lot to add for improvement. I think maybe additional cutlery/cups/glasses could be provided as many people would maybe like to drink together before going out in town? We would have liked a toaster/microwave to prepare breakfast but it really was no big deal!
Excellent location, only a 10 minute walk from Fira town centre. Internally the property was very clean, and well looked after. The Hot Tub was nice and very easy to use. Bathroom was clean, and modern. The cleaning staff were very good and were always smiling. The hosts themselves were extremely helpful in making sure our stay was comfortable, and assisted with helping us book taxi’s, providing additional cutlery, organising room clean around our schedule, and the arrival/departure.

IrelandLocation was good for us as we are well able but there is a big for 10/15 min up to Fira. Nothing bad about the property but something to be aware if you have any mobility issues.
The rooms were lovely and clean and terrace was great for sitting out , very relaxed vibe.

Hong KongThe bed was kind of hard but it didn’t bother us a lot.
The location was convenient, with the Fira Main Square just a 10-minute walk away, which was not an issue for us. Irini was incredibly helpful and provided us with valuable information on how to explore Santorini. She recommended a day tour that was worth every penny, as it included everything we needed. Overall, our experience in Santorini was fantastic, and we had a truly enjoyable stay at the hotel.

The host was so nice!! She gave us an upgrade due to availability. The jacuzzi was amazing for resting at night after a busy day. The room was clean, with good air conditioning. The location was great, close to the center of Fira and all the restaurants/pubs. Amazing place!

IrelandThis was our first time in Santorini and we loved everything about staying in Villa Galaxy Santorini. Irini (from reception) was so helpful and kind, and provided us with what we needed during our stay in her place. She also gave us indications to explore different locations on the Island. Our room was very clean and confortable. I will definitely be back.

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 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.
