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):
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.).

IrelandThe tap/faucet pressure in the bathroom was quite weak. The hot tub can be quite slippy on the steps when entering or exiting so be careful when getting in or out.
Great Location, Great views, Very private, Staff were lovely and helpful. Room cleanings were closer in the afternoon if you wanted a lie in so it wasn’t too early. We were accommodated very well. Located next to cable car, super market, bars restaurants. Very accessible for taxi pick up. Would book again.

United KingdomMaybe another outdoor bed/ sunbed for the Junior Suites.
The scenery and rooms are superb, and the room we had was very clean and spacious. The location is perfect for those avoiding the high costs of Oia and the high amount of people in Oia and Fira. The rooms are a walking distance to Fira and Imerovigli, with a short taxi trip to Oia. The room also has multiple breakfast, lunch and dinner spots in the village of Firostefani which are minutes away.

United KingdomThey wasn’t anything that we didn’t like. It generally was a beautiful hotel. My ONLY suggestion - is to perhaps put a few sun loungers in the empty space on the top floor next to reception. This is only because we had to check out at 11am - however wasn’t getting picked up till 4pm. 🕓 And whilst the hotel offered to held our luggage for us, they wasn’t really anything for us to do for 5 hours unless we wanted to walk around shops for 5 hours… Would of been perfect with a few sun loungers / chill area that we could use after check out (they do have a big empty space for it) and I don’t mean anything extravagant- just 4 sun loungers or something! However - this isn’t fault of the hotel, I was already fully aware we had to check out at 11am when booking this hotel.
The property was absolutely stunning. I have recommended this hotel to several of my friends and family since being home. From arrival the staff are extremely welcoming and friendly - check you in, offer you a glass of wine, give you plently of information about the island, and take you to the room. The rooms are very modern and luxary vibe, clean, smells fresh when you enter them. The hot tub was lovely - I’ve seen a couple of comments about the hot tub not being HOT but who wants a really hot tub in hot weather? I seen it more as a warm pool It was around 17degrees when I was there end of April, with abit of wind and with really hot times of the day and it was lovely to get into. On the odd occasion whilst having a day in the hotel the reception girls would come and offer a glass of wine. Fantastic service They is no shop or food and drink on the hotel premises. However the staff will organise breakfast to be delivered for you to enjoy at your balcony. They will even organise takeaways in the evening to be delivered to you. They did also offer transfer service - however we used booking.com for our transfers as they were around half the price. The hotel is in good location. You can walk left out of the gate and find a little shop with snacks & drinks. And also a place for gyros 🥙 Or you could walk right out of the hotel gate to lots of restaurants, amazing views, bars, souvenir shops & breakfast locations. The actual hotel itself is located in the middle of Santorini island - which was perfect - we hired a quad bike for 3 days and managed to travel to different points up and down the island several times. We seen everything.

United KingdomThere’s some distance from Thira but we walked the walkway and the views were amazing. They don’t provide amenity kits for dental and hair but we always bring our own so not a problem for us. Soap and shampoo were provided.
We chose the junior suite. The view while soaking in the hot tub was memorable. The room was clean, and I think newly refurbished. The bathroom was magical. It’s a good stay for couples and family. I loved everything about it. Wish we had stayed longer.

We stayed at Aura Suites for four nights and had the most incredible experience! Our room felt like a 5-star hotel—newly renovated, beautifully decorated, and with the most breathtaking views of Firostefani. The bed was unbelievably comfortable, and having our own private jacuzzi was such a treat! The location is perfect—just a 10-minute walk to Fira and 20 minutes to Imerovigli. But honestly, the stunning views along the way make the walk feel effortless. There are also fantastic restaurants just a 2-minute walk from the hotel, which made dining out so convenient. A special shoutout to Denise and the amazing staff who went above and beyond. My husband injured his foot during our stay, and they provided exceptional care, even offering pain relief to help him feel more comfortable. Their kindness and attentiveness made all the difference. I cannot recommend Aura Suites enough—it’s hands down the best place to stay in Santorini! We will definitely be back.

from arrival to departure, every single thing was perfect! the staff are extremely kind and attentive and are happy to answer any questions or advise on tours etc. the rooms are all kept to an exceptional standard and are spotless clean. the location is perfect and is easily accessible as its only a stone throw from the 3 bells of fira and close to amazing restaurants such as Tobriki & Vanilla to name a few. the views over the Caldera from the hot tub & balcony are unbelievable. I would recommend organising transfers to and from the airportl through the hotel as they use a very professional service and was 35 euros compared to a taxi at the airport which was 45 euro. cannot recommend this hotel enough
