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...).

AustraliaWhile the apartment is close to the port it is a difficult walk with luggage as you have to cross a large unmade area. This isn’t clear on maps. We would recommend grabbing a taxi to get there with your luggage. After that everything is within walking distance.
Lives up to the title ‘Magic View’, with a beautiful view of the sea and the sun setting behind the Temple of Apollo. Tiny balcony but enough room to sit and watch the sun set :). Simple cooking facilities, which were handy, and an otherwise comfortable room in a quiet area. Very nice host family.

GermanyIt would have been nice to have been told that the rooms were going to be cleaned in our absense, just not to be surprised by it :D
The receptionists are very friendly, accomodating and helpful :) Our room was cleaned and soap replenished after the first night.

SwedenI think the property could be updated a bit. You could tell it was quite old and some things needed renewing, like the paint on the blinds and the tiles in the bathrooms. Also, some sheets had stains, even though they were clearly washed.
The family running the property was very friendly and even let us leave our bags there after checking out, which was very kind of them! The cleaning lady came in each day while we were out, and even cleaned our dishes for us, which we were happily surprised about. We liked the short walk from the property to the port area. The area surrounding the apartment was very calm.

The owner was very friendly and helpful. The rooms were comfortable - windows had shutters. Good air conditioning in the rooms. Great location, about a 10 minute walk from Chora and the port - though it is up a medium sized hill. Loved staying here, thank you

BelgiumWhile everything is fine the bathroom really needs to be renewed!
The view is fantastic! The flat is close to the centre and the port, yet it is very quiet. The host Maria is very friendly, she is there to help if necessary. It was our 4th time there and we will go back for sure if we go to Naxos again. On a more personal note we wish Maria and her husban best of luck with the baby on the way...
