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 reviewFantastic location, spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable. A big effort for some lovely touches like the name Paradiso on the beautiful fluffy towels, crisp cotton pillowcases and bathrobes, and meeting us at the harbour to carry our cases back to the room. Towels and linen were changed during our short stay too. Plenty of room for clothes etc Beaches are not sandy so take swimming shoes as there are pebbles everywhere. Highly recommend Mandraki beach.
Beware the steps! First of all the steps to the bathroom are black tiles and easily missed so anyone could tumble. But the steps leading up to the guest house are not for the faint hearted 😂

Verified reviewWe had a brilliant stay at Paradiso. The one room apartment was well fitted out, with a spacious bathroom and sweet balcony. Close to the port, with not too many steps to get there. Spiros and his staff were super helpful and friendly.

The many steps, but it was worth it for the views and the owner carried our suitcase which certainly was needed.

Verified reviewVery well designer rooms. Quiet. Little added luxuries.
I liked the woman who cleaned very much, but I only saw her a couple of minutes ago day. I don't mind the climb up to the guest house but people should be aware there are 100 steps ip from the port, so not for everyone.

Verified reviewWe had a great stay at Paradiso. The room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable; even without the air-conditioning it was cool. It was also blissfully quiet, especially given that it was only a three minute walk down to the liveliness of the port. Spiros, the owner, was very responsive by text and gave us recommendations for restaurants and bakeries.
Nothing, the room could not have been better, although possibly be aware that Apple maps initially sent us to the wrong location and there are steps to climb with luggage although that is Hydra town.

Verified reviewConveniently located for restaurants, sights, shops and the ferry. Spiros gave useful recommendations for breakfast and dinner places. Loved having a tiny balcony with a view to the hills and a peek of the harbour. Could have spent longer than 3 days.
Quite a few steps, but Spiros kindly met us at the ferry and helped with our luggage. The upside of steps is the view when you get to your destination!

Verified reviewThe place was incredible and the owner is absolutely outstanding! He met us at the ferry so we didn’t need to find the location on our own and helped bring our bags. While there he was consistently helpful from simple questions to offering recommendations for places to eat and the best trails to hike and run. When it came time to check out he allowed us to leave our bags at his wife’s shop for the day which allowed us to have an incredible adventure for our last day before getting on an evening ferry. I would recommend this place to anyone, and will be directly recommending it to family who plans to visit the area next year.

Verified reviewGreat room, location and host. The tiny details really made a difference.
The only (very minor) feedback I would suggest is improved the blinds and curtains in the room. However an eye mask did the trick

Verified reviewWe were met at the port. There was a nice little spot just a couple of steps up from the room to sit and admire the view.
The room didn’t have a window other than the door so to enjoy the view we had to go outside (not too much of an issue)
