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.).

United StatesFood menu in upstairs restaurant could be more extensive.
This stately hotel was like a walk back in time to an era of comfort and service we rarely experience anywhere anymore. The room was spacious and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was spectacular and included many Greek savory and sweet options. No breakfast anywhere comes close to the infinite choices they offer. The bus to Knossos is next door to the hotel and the hotel is very close to the ferry port with wonderful views over the harbor. There’s no reason to stay anywhere else in Heraklion.

United KingdomIt was not clear beforehand that the health suite facilities are only bookable by the hour, and for an extra fee (for each facility eg jacuzzi) Great for couples; but as a solo traveller it wasn’t worth it.
Excellent location and service.

United StatesMy only complaint is that the air conditioning wasn't available, and I feel it is a little deceptive to say that the hotel is air-conditioned when it is not always air-conditioned. It was rather warm during the day, so you needed to open the balcony door to cool off the room, but it was VERY noisy, making it difficult to sleep. When we asked about the air-conditioning, the hotel staff provided us with a fan which helped, but it wasn't as cool as we prefer.
The hotel is right off the water at the port. We had a room overlooking the harbor. We enjoyed watching the ships come and go. There was a nice balcony where you could stand and enjoy the water. (See photos) The room was nice and the bed was comfy. The bathroom was spacious with a great tub! The breakfast buffet was outstanding with a huge variety of offerings. It was one of the best I've ever experienced and the restaurant staff was friendly and attentive. It is a little bit of a walk to the historic part of town, but we didn't mind.

United StatesThe WiFi was a bit spotty and the pool is a bit small.
The staff were exceptional. One of our party got ill and they were excellent in calling a doctor and just being kind. The location is excellent. Short walk to center square, the fort and the airport is only 10 min away. The breakfast was AMAZING! Wonderful local Crete cuisine and other Greek food.

United StatesOne minor glitch: The room Could have used a few more plugs, or double plugs. Example: couldn’t plug in the coffee machine with getting on knees and stretching around table to unplug the light that required that one and only plug in that location.
Great location, excellent staff, so helpful. Room was so comfortable, well appointed and organized, very comfortable bed. Bathroom Also well set up, great shower. We loved the closet and good storage for our bags, made it easy to unpack and stay organized. Parking was very convenient, and loved that it was free. Fabulous, best-ever breakfast. Also loved the roof top restaurant, with views of port.

United StatesThe staff was extremely friendly, the room was comfortable, and the breakfast was out of this world. Originally, our flight was going to leave early and the staff volunteered to pack us a breakfast to-go. The flight was canceled so we were able to eat there and I’m so glad that we had to rebook to a later flight!
