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 KingdomLighting upstairs for the vanity table was a bit dim to do makeup. But really that's such a minor issue! So no real complaints!
Perfect location and amazingly comfortable bed. The pool is small (knew that going in) but perfect for a quick dip. Staff were helpful and happy to give advise as needed. Small but functional kitchen space.

AustraliaThe shower would sometimes take a while for the water to heat up. Nothing major though, it’s a great property.
Great location to the old town, along with a spacious and comfortable room. Agapi at the reception is very friendly and hospitable.

United KingdomShame a small continental breakfast couldn't be provided, for convenience, but lots of nearby options.
Fantastic small boutique hotel in the old town. Short walk to the sea front and many bars and restaurants. Hotel owner very helpful. Room terrific overlooking the pool (a bit smaller in reality than the website picture shows) but not a problem. Suite has good facilities like small hotplate, fridge and utensils. Air conditioning unit in the room.

GermanyIt was just perfect, greeting from Germany hope to see you guys soon!
My girlfriend and I were here on holiday mid of August. The hosts and personell are just super committed and they go the "extra mile" to make you just feel perfectly comfortable, almost like a second home! The location is perfect, not too near the loud party mile but near enough to go for shopping, party or just the beautiful beach. Supermarket is just next to it like a good bakery too!

AustriaWe had a fantastic stay at Phaedra Suites and were very satisfied. This boutique hotel is located in the heart of the city center, 10 minutes walking from Rethymnon beach. The suite was modern, clean and equipped with everything we needed. The beds were really comfortable and made us sleep so well. Agapi, the owner is a wonderful host, she takes great care of her guests, ensuring that we had a pleasant stay. Her attentiveness and warm hospitality added a personal touch to the overall experience, making us feel welcomed. Highly recommended!

United KingdomNothing. We would definitely stay here again if visiting rethymno
It’s location is perfect close to the old town and the shops and restaurants and a short walk to the beach. The owner and family were always very friendly and helpful and gave good advice on places to visit. The apartment was spotlessly clean and the whole building is modern and has everything you need. The pool is fairly small but perfect for a dip at any time of the day or night.

United KingdomHost was wonderful, very kind and helpful. We had a late check in and Agapi was very accommodating for this. The room was exactly as described, even better, with a comfortable bed and rooms cleaned daily with fresh towels. The kitchenette was very convenient too for a long stay, with a a small supermarket on the same street as the property we could cook some of our own meals. The pool was small but lovely, set in a beautiful and quiet courtyard. It almost felt like a private pool due to the minimal number of guests at the property. There is a convenient water filter installed on the property which makes fresh water drinkable, saved us plenty of money. The location is in perfect! Set in the heart of Rethymno with walking distance from the beach and famous Old Town. Also a 10-15 minute walk from the main bus station with helpful transfers to Chania Airport or connections to other locations around Crete. Would definitely recommend this property to friends and family, and even return myself in the future. We were very satisfied with our stay
