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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

BelgiumStudios are a bit outdated - resulting in some imperfections: out of 3 days, we had 1 day without hot water and 1 day with no electricity in our kitchen. in the end, everything got resolved by very friendly host, but still a bit uncomfortable. A lot of mosquitos (and poor protection against mosquitos). Kitchenette is very basic. Not the most comfortable bed.
Fantastic location with amazing view - very close to Limeni, close to Areopoli and right at the bay with calm water. Lovely terrace at the studio. Host is amazing & very friendly. Very nice breakfast with homemade local products.

GreeceMy only complaint would be that there were some things missing from the room. We did not have shower soap/shampoo in our bathroom. It also would have been nice to have an iron in our room, but certainly not required.
Maria was an amazing host and very helpful with all our local questions. She made a delicious breakfast each morning beyond what most hotels offer.

IsraelThe 2 restaurants nearby - The fish restaurant is expensive and the other one further along is very poor. Maria's husband recommended a restaurant across the bay in lemeni called Kourmas which was very good.
Breakfast was very good. Maria was very kind and packed the food we didn't eat for lunch.

Lovely terrace looking over the bay. Very friendly, helpful owners. Free canoes to use and incredibly good and generous breakfasts. Local fish restaurant. Walkable to the villages of New Itilo (~1km) with a small shop and couple of restaurants, and beautiful Limeni (3.5km) and up the hill to Kelefa castle ruins. A short drive to the small but picturesque town of Aeropoli.

AustraliaThere is nothing about this property that you could possibly not like.
The personal touches in every corner of this place make you feel like you are staying with family. Every morning a special breakfast from Maria with products from their garden or other local producers was a special experience. It was also a pleasure to visit their olive tree plantation and hear the history of their family on the farm.

We wanted to stay in Limeni but so glad the whole village was booked up and we chose Elixirion. The room was beautiful and comfortable with our own entrance and terrace overlooking the sea. The breakfast was best we’ve had although many were amazing, and the owner was attentive, helpful and simply very nice. We loved the quiet location and the restaurant next door proved to be very good too, in a nice setting over the sea. To see turtles swimming was a cherry on the cake and combined with our swims in the bay just 30 seconds from our room the whole stay was absolutely fabulous. Also very near to Limeni for dinner or Aeropoli. We explored Mani from here and location wise it was a perfect choice. Thank you.

CyprusExceptional breakfast. The location was very convenient and the views from the room and breakfast area were stunning! There is a very good fish restaurant just next to it, which we visited twice. It is a family run business and all of them were so lovely and helpful! We stayed with our baby of one year old, and the mother had always a fresh egg ready for my daughter in the morning! They even gave us fresh eggs to take with us! They went above and beyond to make sure that our stay was perfect, which they achieved! We will definitely visit them again in the future, and we fully recommend that everybody who is looking for a quiet, friendly and with stunning views accommodation, to book it without hesitation!

BulgariaAll was simply perfect
Elixirion is simply one of the best family hotels that I have been to. It is a small family run hotel with incredible service. Maria and her daughters run the place spotless. Hygiene is at highest standard, everyday room service, beds are huge and very comfortable, Wi-Fi is fast and reliable. Excellent for even online tv/movies. Best of all was the food: the breakfast - handmade and very tasty - everyday different local specialties, fresh orange juice, fruits and sweets. You can pre-order dinner at the restaurant and I definitely recommend it! We had dinner in all near-by restaurants and they weren’t even half as good as Elixirion’s food. Simply amazing. If you want to have a great dinner, forget about the local restaurants (there are only 2 nearby) and eat at Elixirion. If I ever come back to this region of Peloponnese, I would definitely stay again in Elixirion guest house.

The location was exceptional, the breakfast terrace was lovely, practical and useful. Our bedroom was small but adequate, the bathroom was very, very small. However we always had enough hot water. The small yard for the exclusive use of the bedroom was very pleasant and practical for drying swimwear and towels, and of course, to enjoy the wonderful view.
