How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewNice swimming pool, nice staff
the road, room was not the cleanest or the best in general, no breakfast

Verified reviewThe staff is especially nice, the employee Philip, the view from the room balcony is stunning and overlooks the bay and at sunset the view is spectacular, there is a pool bar at reasonable prices. The hotel is about a 10-minute drive from the sea and the promenade and to get there is a very long dirt road and probably that is why the price is relatively cheap for a hotel with a pool and a view. The room with a small kitchenette is not badly equipped, the room is small and the beds are small, there is free parking but it is always crowded.

Verified reviewThe views over Himare were fantastic and the staff were wonderfully friendly and extremely helpful. The staff certainly made our stay memorable
The pool is getting a little old and tired and with so many children the requirement for too much chemical input was a little sad. The rubbish in the block directly in front of the deck was disappointing and while not the hotel’s fault does detract from the views

Verified reviewClean, comfortable with a lovely pool with great views over the bay. The road is a dirt road but manageable by our little Polo with no problems. It is about 15 mins to Himare beach on foot so do bring food etc (hob only to cook on). The staff will order in pizzas and fast food if you wish.
I thought the bar prices were a little high but this is our first experience of coastal Albania. Some reviewers have given a lower score for Location - it is very much personal taste. Personally I loved being away from the centre of town where car parking is at a premium.

Verified reviewStaff were extremely friendly and the pool and bar/terrace area was fantastic. Would highly recommend going his place and will be back!
Just the walk up the hill. We’re all fit enough to do it so it wasn’t a problem. They call a cab for you if needed.
Thank you Francis for your kind words, we appreciate it! We enjoyed hosting your lovely family, we will be glad to have you back.

Verified reviewStaff was the best!! And so were the (ginger) cocktails :) Pool and view is lovely and there is a very cosy atmosphere. Good and cheap breakfast and during the day/evening you can order pizza from a local shop (hotel Will order for you). Poolbar is great and rooms were very clean. Thanks all!
Walking down to city center is only 10/15 minutes but when you go back its heavy (mountain up) but you can take a taxi (15 euro). The rooms were a bit noisy and you can hear some things from outside, but if you are a good sleeper dont worry.

Verified reviewWe had an amazing stay here ! Super helpful staff, unreal views of the sea and sunset, pool was amazing for a chill day. Clean and spacious room. The hill up from town takes about 15/20 mins but the views make it worthwhile (we drove our hire car to the bottom of the hill sometimes to avoid heat of the day walking). Would 100% recommend.
Slightly leaking shower but apart from that was perfect.
