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 reviewI stayed in this spacious and fully equipped apartment for a week. The hosts were very friendly. They picked me up from the port and brought me back again. There were little gifts every day, such as cakes, pastries and fresh fruit. The accommodation is cleaned daily. You have a wonderful view of the old town and the Chora. Everything around the accommodation is very green and has lots of flowers. There are a few steps down to the port, but that didn't bother me. To get to the Chora, you can walk along the street above, which takes about 15 minutes, then you save yourself the stairs. I can recommend the accommodation without reservation.

Verified reviewEverything, the house was stunning with a high standard finish throughout. The hosts were the nicest hosts that we have came across in the 3 years we have travelled Greece. Picked up up from the port at 0130 and dropped us back again, allow us to stay longer on departing day and shower, cleaned the room everyday, fresh baked breakfast, treats on the arrival, the list is endless. Host don’t speak much English and we don’t speak much Greek but this was no issue as we could still communicate and made us make the effort to try to speak Greek as you should when visiting someone’s country. I couldn’t recommend this property enough. Thank you for an amazing time.

Verified reviewThis is the best studio I have been to in Greece by far. My aunt and I felt right at home: every morning (and every now and then in the afternoon) Stavros knocked on the door to bring us the delicacies prepared by his wife Eythimia, one better than the other. The studio was cleaned to perfection every day and the towels and sheets were changed every two days. On the first day Stavros came to pick us up at the airport and helped us with the luggage and as soon as we arrived we found the fridge with many things for breakfast and Stavros brought us a welcome tray with water, rakomelo (raki + honey) and glikò koutalioù (fruit in syrup). Stunning location, excellent view of the chora and above all the best owners I have ever met not only in Greece, but everywhere till now. What can I say? The best studio I have ever found since traveling to Greece! Χάρηκα πολύ που σας γνώρισα, Ευθυμία και Σταύρο!

Verified reviewI can't imagine staying anywhere else on the island. If you're reading this review, stop looking at other options and book the Butterfly House! Euthimia & Stavros are some of the best hosts we have ever had, and we have traveled all over Greece. The apartment is welcoming and comfortable and very clean. The view is to die for and it's incredibly peaceful. The location looks at the best side of Chora and is walkable if you really want to. Euthimia & Stavros could not have been more kind & helpful - just to name a few special things - they picked us up & took us to the airport, took us to their favorite beaches, found us a rental car, brought us fresh homemade breakfast every morning (and a welcome drink & snack), let us check into the room extremely early (8am!) so we could sleep after our morning arrival, recommended favorite local restaurants, added additional adapters to the wall outlet by the bed when they saw we filled the existing ones....I mean come on...you cannot beat that kind of hospitality. The care here is unmatched. Really really incredible. Book this room!!!

Verified reviewThe apartment is sparkly clean and cozy, with everything you need for your stay. It is very quiet and perfect to relax. The terrace has an amazing view on Chora but the best part are the owners that everyday clean your room and prepare for you an amazing breakfast. We had everyday something different to try. It has been amazing, we were very sad to depart. Thank you so much!

Verified reviewEfthimia is the best hostess I've ever had when travelling and her cakes are second to none! This was a wonderful holiday house with every amenity and it was perfectly clean. The balcony had gorgeous views towards the castle and hora and we were surrounded by plants and flowers. Easy access via steps down to the port and shops or you can walk along the road to the hora with no problems. The Astybus ride share service also has a nearby stop. Thank you for an exceptional stay, we will return 100%.

Verified reviewI already had high expectations for our stay at Butterfly View House, but reality was far beyond what we could dream of. This is by far the best studio I have ever stayed in years of island hopping in Greece. The terrace, boasting superb views on the Chora, is surrounded by a luxurious garden: a peaceful corner of paradise and a real joy to the eye! The apartment is spotlessly clean, with daily housekeeping. The bed is super comfy, the kitchenette well equipped. But what really made the experience unique was our hosts' hospitality. It felt like they really welcomed us into the family. They looked after us with care and selflessness. They could speak only little English, but hospitality is truly a universal language and we had the best of stays. They spoiled us rotten with freshly made pastries every morning and even invited us over to a family feast one of the evenings. An experience we will never forget. We couldn't recommend this place enough. Stavros and Euthimia, ευχαριστώ πολύ!
