Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

UkraineThe only minus is location but I'm a walker so it'd okay for me to walk 20 minutes to the town. I even managed to walk to another beach Tsilivi 2 times from Lofos Strani) There are no places for pedestrians and it's scary.But this is not a hotel's fault but government.
Lofos Strani is a nice place. I am a solo traveler so it's important to feel comfortable in accommodation. I want to thank those ladies who cleaned room every day during 10 days of my stay. Everyone is really friendly and helpful. Swimming pool is nice. The territory is green and lovely. I feel comfortable there. Thank you.

Hungary100% satisfied with this hotel! We absolutely loved the breakfast, many option to choose from. The garden is beautiful, parking is big enough. The pool and its area is satisfying. Staff is always smiling and helpful. The room is comfortable with tv, fridge, hairdryer, big bed. Bathroon was clean. We got fresh towels every second day. Location is perfect if you have a car or quad, you can reach the best beaches easily and Zante is like 5 minutes from the hotel. There is also a shop and a little restaurant at the end of the road. We loved it here and we love Zakhyntos ❤

United KingdomThe room was perfect, the breakfast was great (and cheap) and the pool was amazing. My little boy spent the whole holiday in there! This is a lovely place to stay a fifteen minute walk from the town centre. Bochali is a short walk uphill too. There's a shop just down the road and reliable taxi services for the town.

Great little hotel! Located quite far from the party but just above zakynthos city, great amenities and breakfast was a great deal at only €5 a go! We really enjoyed our stay, staff were helpful and friendly. Pool facilities great! Taxis relatively cheap to travel places and most excursions collect you from this hotel. Picture is a gorgeous sunset right outside our hotel room door!

RomaniaThe hotel is located on a hill, in a quit place. You will need a car to go to the beach and to explore the island. It is very clean. Everyday they clean the room and every second day they change the towels and the sheets. The bed was confi and the AC was a bless. The wifi is also good. The view from the balcony is very nice. You can see the sea and the Bochali hill. The pool is a big one, the wather and the pool area were nice and clean. The breakfast was always fresh and tasty, homemade. It was the same everyday, but this didn't bother us. We had always something to choose. We loved the peace of this hotel, far from the noisy town. The owners and the staff are good people, always there to help you. They are a family. We liked them very much. There is a market and a coffe shop right on the corner.

Fantastic pool area, very comfortable room, the breakfast was fantastic value at only 5 euros each with a great selection. The staff were more than helpful, only complaint was our tv didn’t work, but no big deal, and you need to be fairly fit to walk into the town centre and back, that’s a big hill!

United KingdomMosquitos!! They were gathered around my door as they entered. I knew it was going to be hell but fortunately there’s a shop just down the road, 10 euros later they’re mosquito corpses everywhere. Not the properties responsible but the shop was really handy!
Well laid out, clean and tidy throughout, and the swimming pool is great, good size, and a nice temperature, it was bliss. I was at one point the only one using it, nice. Hotel is close enough to town if you want to be there, far enough away for peaceful nights. Staff are great! Good selection of foods for breakfast, fry up, to fruit, and the breakfast dolmades are home made 😊 I expressed my appreciation to the kitchen members responsible (I’ve had tinned dolmades served in some restaurants) and she gave me an extra half dozen on a plate. The proprietor and all the staff are very helpful, happy, and kind.

HungaryThe breakfast wasn't as good as it looked in the pictures online. They served store-bought pastries, watered-down orange juice, and not-so-great coffee (there were some tasty things though, like the french toast or the vegetables and the olives and Lurpak butter). But here's the good part: it was super cheap, just 4 euros per person. After a couple of days, we got the hang of it and figured out what to eat. They kept refilling the food, so even if you're not an early bird, you can still get breakfast at 9 a.m. In short, the breakfast might not be as good as it looks in the photos, but it's a great deal at 4 euros. If you adjust your expectations and choose wisely, you'll be happy with it.
We had an amazing time at Lofos Strani. The place and view were even more beautiful than we expected, surpassing what we saw in the online pictures. Our room was cozy, cleaned daily, and had a lovely balcony with captivating views. The pool was pleasantly uncrowded in September. They had tables scattered around the garden where we could relax, chat, sip drinks, and enjoy breakfast outdoors in the morning. Strani Hill was just a short 5-minute walk away, offering more breathtaking views. Initially, we walked all the way from Zakynthos town to Lofos Strani, which turned out to be a long and exhausting journey – not recommended. However, we later discovered a shortcut down to Plaz E.O.T, a street with stairs that made it a much quicker 15-minute walk back if we wanted to stroll from town. The staff was always friendly and willing to help with any questions we had. There's a small market nearby that stays open until midnight, which came in handy for grabbing a quick bite for lunch. One evening, we hiked up the hill (in Bochali) to the House of Lata restaurant, where guests of the hotel get a 15% discount, and it was a delightful experience with even more amazing views. All in all, Lofos Strani is a beautiful and affordable place to stay, and we highly recommend it to anyone seeking a delightful retreat with plenty of charm and convenience.
