Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

ItalyThe most romantic and beautiful place in Symi From the moment you arrive, you feel completely at home. The host, Dimitri, is not only incredibly kind and welcoming—he’s also the architect who designed and built this stunning four-room hotel himself. Every corner of the place reflects his eye for detail and love for what he does. Dimitri went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. He shared the best local tips, helped us book the most charming restaurants, and even arranged boat trips for us. Thanks to him, our days in Symi turned into a true dream holiday. The hotel is full of thoughtful touches and beautiful design details—it feels more like staying in a lovingly curated home than a hotel. Thank you, Dimitri, for everything. We’ll definitely be back soon!

United KingdomDo you have a friend that has a house in Symi? If not, staying at this hotel is the closest thing to having one. The owner lives on the island and is a well-respected person which means you will be looked after if you mention you are staying there. He knows everything about the island, what's good, what isn't and is always there to assist. The hotel was the house of the most important benefactor of the island which has been beautifully renovated, so if you enjoy history and authenticity, this is your place. The rooms are majestic. The cleaning is top-notch. There's a bowl of fresh fruit everyday which is a nice, welcoming touch.

SingaporeQuiet waterfront location on the edge of the town, Breakfast was a help yourself table with coffee machine, which was adequate. Best things about the stay were the intimacy of the property (4 rooms), the terrace with a view of the town and the bay, and most of all, the exquisite taste of the restoration and conversion of a historic mansion into a boutique hotel.

GermanyThe traffic on the street from the Harbour in front of the house is not always nice for the ear.
There is nothing here that disturbs the eye. On the contrary: many small beautiful details throughout the house. In general: beautiful rooms, the terraces, the seating outside of the rooms. Nice, the possibility to make tea and coffee at any time, the fruit on the table, the cakes, the biscuits.
