How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewWhat a wonderful place! Albatross is located very close to the sea, supermarkets, tavernas yet a tiny bit outside the busy main road that makes the stay very calm. The property is sparkling clean, and the owners are very welcoming people who go ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure you have an enjoyable and a stress-free holiday. Anything you need - just ask George and he will be there to advise and to help. The swimming pool is very clean and usually not busy at all, so there is plenty of space for all the guests to enjoy it and relax. The rooms are very comfortable, have anything one needs during a holiday and more; the bedding and the towels are changed frequently. The yard has lots of greenery and is very well-kept; the property also has a small playground for smaller children which was greatly appreciated. I warmly recommend staying at Albatross and will definitely be back. P.S. Do yourself a favour and visit a great taverna "Kevin's restaurant" nearby.

Verified reviewThis was our third summer at Albatross. It exceeded our expectations in every way again as always. This year the kitchen area had been renewed and there were new pots and pans and a new electric stove. We were again greeted with local beer waiting for us in the fridge. The owners are wonderful. George and his father are very attentive and knowledgeable, they always help us with any question we may have and recommend us great places to see around the area. The place is maintained very well and the rooms are impeccably clean. The location is perfect, with the beach only steps away and many great restaurant options within walking distance. Marathokampos is one the best areas to spend your vacation and Albatross has become our home away from home now. My family and I always look forward to going back every summer and we feel very lucky that our paths have crossed with these wonderful people.
We liked everything.

Verified reviewAlbatross Hotel truly makes you feel like you're staying at your own summer house. The rooms are very clean, and everything works perfectly. The owner, George, is an extremely friendly person; he approaches situations with a solution-oriented mindset and tries to help as much as he can. The beaches near the hotel offer an amazingly refreshing sea. Being within walking distance of the region's best bakery for breakfast is a great advantage. Additionally, right in front of the hotel, there's a grocery store run by another very friendly owner, offering more affordable prices than other places. By the way, for those who will come to Samos for the first time; If you only plan to visit Pithagorion, Marathokampos, and Ormos, taking a taxi might be more affordable than renting a car. However, if you intend to explore the entire island, we strongly recommend renting your car at least a week in advance. Otherwise, you might face very high prices or even be unable to find a car.
Because it is in touch with nature, there may be mosquitoes at night. A fly repellent tablet is plugged into the socket, but it may not be enough. Be sure to carry a fly repellent spray with you that can be applied to the skin. Also, the third bed in the triple room was a little uncomfortable. It does not interfere with sleep, but it can be improved.

The garden well taken care of, green, and relaxing. The pool was clean. We couldn’t ask for more. We will definitely choose this again.
We had no complains.

Verified reviewGeorge is a wonderful host, together with his family he made a green oase in the middle of the village. It's one of the most beautifull places we have been around Greece because of the care they take, the colors they added,t he beautifull garden, lovely pool and nice conversations. They have nice tips about the island and take care of evertyhing. We are looking forward to return, can't wait! We travelled with our one year old and the family made us feel very welcome, they loved our daughter and she was so at easy and relaxed. Thanks a million!

Verified reviewEveryone was very friendly and the hotel was very nice and quiet - perfect for a relaxing holiday! The beach is very close, it only takes a few minutes to walk and is great. It was my favorite beach out of the ones we visited on the island. There are also nice restaurants and two markets within walking distance.
My biggest complaint was the beds. They were extremely uncomfortable. I'd also not recommend Kampos if you plan on visiting the island rather than having a relaxing holiday by the beach. It takes around 1.5 hours to get to Samos and 50 minutes to Phytagorio. However, if your goal is to stay mainly in one location and have a beautiful beach nearby to relax, then this is the place for you!

Verified reviewGeorge was very friendly and he helped us for various things like taxi and finding a rental car. Location was also great. A bit far from busiest part of that coast which was good as it was silent to rest at night. It is still close to sea and nice beach restaurants. Pool was also nice and clean.
The room we stayed was a bit old. Bathrooms and kitchen needs some renovation. George told us that renovations are in planning but costly so takes time. Some other rooms were renovated already.

Verified reviewThis was our second summer at Albatross. It's a great place to come back to every summer with family and friends. The beach is right across the road and there are really good restaurants within walking distance. The rooms are clean and comfortable with a well-equipped kitchen. The pool is always clean and great for relaxation before or after beach time. The owners are very nice and friendly and always available if you need help with anything. Their hospitality is another reason to come back here every summer. We were again greeted with local beer in the fridge as a welcome gift upon our arrival. Overall, I would highly recommend Albatross for a fun and relaxing holiday.
There was nothing we didn't like.

Verified reviewsimple but very cozy family hotel. the host allowed us to check in in the morning, cold water and beer were prepared in the room for welcome. the environment is very green, many flowers, so you can find shade. perfectly cleaned and maintained swimming pool, where the children swam every day. there are few people at the pool, sometimes we were all alone. the sea is a few steps away, two small supermarkets are nearby. true, there weren't many dishes in the kitchen, but they were enough to prepare simple meals. the mood of the resort itself is calm, relaxed. everyone is very nice. we will definitely go back there.
