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.).

United KingdomPlease beware: the hotel is high up the hill and there is a *very* steep slope you have to climb on your way there. If you travel without a vehicle, you need to be aware of this, especially if you have heavy suitcases. It is also not too near the local bus stop, so I'd recommend taking a cab, even from Tsilivi bus stop, if you are not with a car. I believe the hosts are very mindful of that, which is why they offered me a lift. Other than that, fine. I think they could consider updating the kitchen utensils - these are few and they look old and dusted, even if they may not be. Some coffee, tea and sugar in the room would be greatly appreciated, not least because you have to take down and up again that slope in order to reach the nearest mini market.
As others have said, this hotel gives you stunning views from the balcony (Tsilivi beach) and I was lucky to be given one of the top floor hotels. It is only 5 mins walk to the beach via a pathway and fairly near the main town with all its cafes, restaurants, bars, shops. The hosts very kindly offered to give me a lift from Zakynthos town's bus station and were very friendly all the way through. They were very quick to respond to any queries or requests for recommendations while communicating via Booking.com chat messenger and they did their best to find the best way for me to travel from Zalynthos to Kefalonia, which was my next stop. I will definitely try booking with them again when I visit the island again.

LithuaniaAn unforgettable stay in Zakynthos! Sofos Apartments is truly one of the best places to stay on the island. The view from the balcony was absolutely breathtaking — peaceful, relaxing, and perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or evening sunset. The entire apartment was spotless, and the surrounding area was very clean and well maintained. It felt quiet, safe, and welcoming. What made the experience even more special was the incredibly friendly and helpful owner. She was so welcoming and took the time to explain everything about the area. The location is ideal for exploring the island, but also perfect if you just want to unwind and enjoy holiday. Highly recommended — we would definitely come back!

HungaryFor those who is not sporty enough a little walk up the hill in the heat might be a little bit challenging but it’s worth it!!!
I liked absolutely everything! The location, the property itself (it has a very nice garden and hammocks), and, cherry on top, the view is breathtaking! The room is very simple, but super clean and spacious. It has an amazing sea resort vibe. Bathroom is clean. I’d definitely come back to Sofos Apartments. It made my first time in Zakynthos unforgettable!

AustraliaWhat a beautiful view to wake up to in the morning! I loved the outside balcony. Lots of gorgeous friendly cats around. The host Athina was so lovely and helpful, she even collected me from the airport. There was a beautiful area to sit / read /use the hammock in the garden. Facilities were basic but it was all that I needed. About a ten minute walk into the main part of town and roughly the same to get to the beach. This place had such a beautiful family feel to it.

PolandI highly recommend this place. The rooms have a wonderful view of the sea and olive trees. You can watch sunrises and sunsets from the balcony. The surroundings of the hotel look magical, the area is carefully and creatively decorated. There is an olive grove, vines, tables and chairs. It's just a little Greece. The room is big, well equipped and very nice. Cleaned every other day. An additional convenience is the possibility of transfer to and from the airport. The owner Athina is an incredibly warm and very helpful person. Staying here was a truly amazing experience and I will definitely come back. Thank you very much for everything and for your wonderful hospitality!
