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 reviewFrom the minute we were met by Georgia at the ferry, our holiday got off to an amazing start. She gave us some top tips about the beaches we could visit etc. Our room ‘The artist’ was very tastefully decorated, spotlessly clean with helpful touches such as beach towels and an iron. We would recommend Arta and will definitely stay again when we are in Hydra. It is was just perfect.
We are so glad to have been a part of your amazing holiday on Hydra. Thank you for your kind compliments and recommendation. We look forward to seeing you again!

Only very slight negative was lack of clothing storage but we were there for 10 nights so had quite a lot with us but we were in the smallest room

Verified reviewThe styling of apartment is beautiful. I stayed with a girlfriend so I would suggest a mirror in addition to bathroom mirror so people can get ready at the same time

Verified reviewWe were met off the ferry by Georgia who was so friendly and gave us loads of good tips (Cool Mule was a personal favourite!). The property was lovely, close enough to be convenient but tucked away in a quiet wee spot. Rooms were beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. The shared space outside was really nice, lots of spots in the sun but also had some shade.
We're so happy you enjoyed your stay (and The Cool Mule)! Thanks again for joining us here and your great comments and we hope to see you again in the future.

Verified reviewWe had a wonderful stay at Arta-Hydra. The host, Mr. Scott, was very kind, friendly, helpful, and truly professional. He quickly found a solution to an issue that came up! Excellent hospitality. The rooms are modern, with beautiful aesthetics, created with passion and love! We would definitely choose it again!
We should stay more
We are so glad you got a small taste of Hydra life and thank you for your kind comments. Definitely come back for a little more of our island hospitality whenever you can!

Verified reviewOur stay on Hydra was nothing short of incredible! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted and picked up directly from the port by our host. Scott was beyond helpful and ensured we had everything we needed. The accommodation itself was stunning—beautifully decorated with a perfect mix of traditional Greek charm and modern comfort. Every detail, from the tasteful decor to the cozy bedding, was thoughtfully designed. The cleanliness of the place was impeccable, and the outdoor terrace was the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. What truly set this stay apart was the level of care and attention from the host. Hydra itself is a magical destination, but staying in such a wonderful place made the trip truly unforgettable. We can’t wait to return!
All perfect
It’s always great when our guests are perfectly in tune with what we have tried to create here at Arta and we are especially lucky that Hydra offers us the ideal setting! Getting to know our guests, even briefly, is a special pleasure and it is tremendously rewarding to have such lovely comments. Thank you and we hope to see you here on our little island again sometime! Safe travels!

Verified reviewPerfect location and very beautiful decoration of the room. Loved the treats: coffee, tea, real glasses of wine for us to use. Every detail was carefully tought. Good for lonely travelers or best friends trips.
Only missed a hair towel, but I didn't ask for it, so probably the cleaning lady or Poppy would provide it. Not good for couples, because there's no privacy enough.
Thank you so much for your comments and we hope you found some good Greek wine for those glasses! For the same reason you won’t find unnecessary plastics (and no single use plastics) in our rooms, we actually don’t have specifically hair towels, only face and bath towels. This is an intentional decision by us to reduce the amount of intensive washing done on the island for environmental reasons. Sorry! Environmental Note: The Greek Islands, like many destinations around the Mediterranean, struggle to meet their fresh water demands as well as waste water treatment. Reducing our environmental impact is a challenge we all face and we hope our guests can support us in this matter. Thanks everyone!

Verified reviewA beautiful, cozy apartment in a fantastic location. We stayed in The Artist room, which was a perfect size for a couple, and the decor was stunning, with lots of lovely details. We especially appreciated the thoughtful extras like filtered water, yoga mats and a beach bag with towels – you can really tell that the owners go the extra mile to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The apartment is on a quiet street, just a short 5-minute walk from the harbor, making it an ideal and convenient location. Overall, we loved our stay at Arta Hydra and would highly recommend it!
The patio is shared between three rooms, and the windows face each other, which may reduce privacy. It didn’t affect our stay, but it’s something to be aware of, as some guests might find it uncomfortable.
What a lovely review! Thank you so much! Hearing our guest’s appreciation for the little details we provide is always rewarding. As Hydra is an architecturally protected cultural village we can’t change the window locations in our rooms but hope there was just enough privacy provided to make you feel comfortable and safe! It was a pleasure having you and we hope you come back!
