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.).

SerbiaParking is problematic. Often you have to leave your care quite far from the hotel...but no one can expect a car park just in front of ancient Byzantine city!!! It will be a sacriledge...
Malvasia is in a hystoric and mystical place. Hotel is placed in a main street. Sea view is excelent. Furniture remainds me on grandmothers rustic house with cascets and benches decorated in a Balcan style Ladies at the reception where kind, hepfull, alwaus at your request (even carred one of our suitcasess when she saw at the check in, how tiered we were). But the ladies in charge for meals and room maintanance desrve mentioning. They were amaising!!. Besides usefull advices, and detailed explainations, about the specificity of making greek pie...they showed sincere care..and eventially gave us a jar with hand made candied fruits to take home!!! (My soons adore this candies) I know that Greeks are warm and friendly and I frequently spend my summer in Greece, but this hotel stuff has gone beuond my expectaions!!

United StatesIn the unit are some funky steps and low doors - we never really got used to them so we got stubbed toes and banged heads! Not a deal breaker, but just worth noting (and we also marked the irregular steps for ourselves). Also you have to walk a lot of stairs to the Stelaki house, which was fine for most of us but if anyone has mobility problems, this specific site might be difficult (they have several buildings).
We had the big apartment in the Stelaki house - lovely great room, nice balcony on the sea, lots of windows with views of something beautiful, and amazing buffet breakfasts.

PolandThe breakfast was in another building - I had been informed about it prior to the arrival. It has not been inconvenient. The breakfast itself and coffee - rather disappointing.
The room was rather dark and humid but there was a very cool patio and it was a good choice for one night. There are not many rooms with seaview - don't get fixated on it. Lots of magnificent views outside of the hotel.

CanadaBalcony is shared with anyone in the hotel. Quite the trek to bring your baggage in, and parking can be a fair distance away.....that being said it's also part of the charm staying there. Tricky to find.
Location was quite the experience. Incomparable. Food and shops nearby. Good breakfast. Amazing view. Stay of a lifetime . Spacious. Hike up to historical Ruins is bonus

United StatesMonemvasia is not a place for folks with mobility issues, as there are a lot of steep areas and stairs. This was true even in our room, as we had to negotiate 7-8 stairs down to the bathroom, and 2 steps into the bedroom.
This hotel isn't just one building, as they have converted spots all over town into accommodations. We expected a simple room but got a massive suite, with tons of local ambiance. It was super clean and even had a kitchenette. But breakfast is included and it's served on a large balcony overlooking the town and water.
