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 reviewThe fig tree house overflows with a feeling of great taste and warmth. The interior of wood and rock and the exquisite decoration takes your breath away! We could not get enough of the living room with its pieces of art. The house faces west and the view from the balcony is awesome. The bedrooms are very cosy. The kitchen is very well equipped and exceeded our expectations. Location is very good gives you a chance to walk the streets of the village.
For first-time visitors like us the text-only directions to find the house were a bit confusing - an unambiguous, detailed map and photos are definitely needed! Access by car and parking takes a bit of getting used to. The Coffee maker seems to be broken - we could not get it to work. Ventilation in the 2 WCs could be improved. The front yard can be improved, esp. the small wooden external door, which needs fixing, and the small garden which has a lot of potential.
Thank you for your kind words, positive and negative, which motivate us to aim higher regarding our housing services!

Verified reviewBeautiful house, comfortable, with great views. The bedrooms were cool despite staying during a heatwave.
The upstairs was warm during the day.
Thank you for your feedback! we feel happy to know that you enjoyed your stay! About the upstairs floor, it is true that without air-condition-which we can t put in a stone wall, preserved building , it can't be cool during a hot day. Luckily, we have the small yard under the trees! We wish you a beautiful rest of the summer!

Verified reviewIf you are in Samothraki, you must stay at the Fig Tree House. The location of it is great, right in the heart of the island and close to all the amenities. Fig Tree House is beautifully furnished with particular attention to detail and fully equipped with everything you may need. It is clean and we felt safe and comfortable. We can't recommend it enough.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are so happy to feel that you had a great time in our home and island! Have a sunny rest of the summer!
