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.).

United StatesFirostefani is a fantastic location near so much yet not in the busyness of Fira. The view from our room was perfect for enjoying the Caldera and the friendly staff do all they can to assist with whatever you need. Very clean, well appointed and excellent breakfast on a sweet patio.

AustraliaLoved the whole experience, and I can't complain about anything!
Villa Ilias was amazing. Our room was lovely and had the most fantastic view of the volcano and sunset. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Nikoleta and Niko at the front desk were polite and always willing to help us with any questions we had, and George at the pool bar made us some delicious pre sunset cocktails to set the mood!

IrelandThe pool area is small so do bear this in mind, the pool is more for a quick dip than swim. With 13 rooms and 6 sun loungers it can be a tight squeeze.
Fantastic location and staff. The hotel is 10 minutes on the walking path to Fira, an abundance of restaurants and shops all a few minutes away. The staff were wonderful (especially John at the front desk), everyone was helpful and friendly, they helped us organize taxis and day trips. Also the bar tender at the pool - so lovely! Always greeted us with a smile and made delicious and reasonably priced cocktails. The room was a good size, with all amenities needed - fridge, AC, hair dryer etc.

United KingdomWe were here for 4 nights and can’t recommend it enough. We stayed in room 6 and the view from our private balcony was spectacular. The room has easy access to the pool and was ideal for catching the sunset each night. The pool bar was also brilliant and the cocktails were excellent. The location was ideal, close to restaurants and shops but quiet enough to feel relaxed. Highly recommend!!

AustraliaThe public bus we got for going to Fira wasn't on time (that's nothing to do with the hotel though).
The view from this hotel gives you a stunning view of the caldera. You also have a cool swimming pool and bar in the compound. Room flooring has a nice style of tiles that gives you a good feeling, recommend walking barefoot inside the room. Hotel is located in Firostefani, close to the square. They also have a nice breakfast in the morning to charge you up for the day. Check in was smooth and front desk is very friendly. It's only a short walk to the Three Bells of Fira and beautiful Catholic Church of St. John the Baptist. Walking is recommended to the nearby places. Good options to choose for food.

I travelled to Villa Ilias for a short holiday in Santorini with my partner, and we absolutely loved everything about it! It is definitely one of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed in. The staff is really kind and welcoming, and they will go above and beyond to make you feel at home. The hotel is stunning, situated in a fab location in Fira, views are absolutely incredible and the breakfast is so, so good! Also, the swimming pool is gorgeous and the pool bar is a great bonus (plus they make the BEST cocktails there)! Can't wait to be back.
