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.).

UkraineThe only downside is the proximity to the road, especially if you like to sleep with an open window. On my next trip, I'll definitely bring earplugs. I can't wait to return again!
What an incredible place! Everything needed for a magical vacation is within reach. You can even watch both the sunrise and sunset from your own terrace without leaving the hotel. The room is more than just comfortable, and let the details be a surprise for you. The owners are very friendly; they will tell you and show you everything they know and help with anything you need. If you visit, be sure to order a cappuccino; it's the best in the world!

United StatesNothing.
The staff (family) was so warm and welcoming and helped us get around, gave instructions for buses and transportation around Santorini. Moreover, the pool facilities are amazing and make the stay even more comfortable. Megalochori is also a beautiful location, the little village is absolutely necessary to see and at walking distance from the hotel.

CanadaNothing to do with the hotel, but know that taxi service is very expensive and somewhat unreliable. I would suggest you have the hotel help with taxi/transfer to/from airport or ferry port as Uber confirmed my reserved taxi to the airport the night prior and then in the morning, the app said "no drivers available'... thankfully the hotel was able to call and get me a taxi (took 3 tries though!) to the port so I could catch my ferry.
Hotel is well located and walkable to the village of Megalochori. Room was spacious and comfortable with nice view of the water from everywhere on the property. Nice pool area and friendly staff.

United KingdomWe have returned to Hotel Star many times. We are warmly welcomed and find the hotel ideal for what we want. The rooms are comfortable with modern bathrooms and it is ideally located for the airport, ferry port and exploring the island. It is great to return to a lovely swimming pool and padded sun-beds to relax in the afternoon with a cool drink from the bar pool. Chris and Linda Hoyle

It is out if the hubbub of Thira but not too far to be amongst it each day. The owners were exceptional, helping us with bookings including car hire and trips. Breakfast each day at a small fee was delicious. The small Interesting town of Megalachoria was close by- with beautiful shops and tavernas. We also realised that if you walked down the street a short way and across the road you could view the caldera - a bit of a treat at sunset. Loved our stay.

United StatesA lovely, clean family run hotel! we were greeted so warmly and treated so well during our stay. The rooms were very clean and the grounds were well kept with a beautiful pool and bar area. The home cooked breakfast buffet had a lot of options and was more than enough food. Very convenient to all areas of the island and you can arrange anything you need from a ride to a sightseeing ticket through the front desk. Such a lovely family running the hotel! We really enjoyed our stay.

Friendly staff, the hotel is very very clean and in our room the cleaner lady came in every day and clean, she was so nice and owner of the hotel was very nice with us. We used also the swimming pool which was very clean, you have also a bar there. It is a quiet place, you can really relax there if you want a busy place full of tourist you can go to Fira. The bus station is 5 min walking near a little shop and you can find the bus schedule in the hotel reception

PolandThe breakfasts are the same every day, so if you are staying longer, they can be boring.
The price is very good, equivalent to the conditions. The rooms are refreshed and clean every day. Bathroom is also renewed and clean. There is a possibility to order breakfast.

United KingdomWe stayed on the main building, on a double bedroom with balcony. The room was somewhat basic but offered everything we needed. The bed was comfortable, as well as the bedding and towels provided. The pool area is really nice, and there is a bar that opens in the afternoon. The assistance and hospitality provided by the owners was above and beyond expected and made our stay a lot more pleasant. The location is really good, in a quiet spot within walking distance of bars, cafes and restaurants in the village. Also close is one of the main viewpoints for the famous Santorini sunset, away from the Oia crowds.
