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):
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.).

AustraliaThere is nothing not to like about this place. We have stayed there twice and would highly recommend it. The staff are all so attentive and helpful nothing is too difficult. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
This is a gem of a hotel, nestled right in the heart of the old port above eateries with access through the front restaurant or the rear. Breakfast is served from a menu with great options to choose from and is just perfect.

IrelandGreat location and hotel, so I really don't want to say anything negative, but here you go: Something that's strange to me: breakfast is served backwards (imo). I would like my food + orange juice and then the other guff (croissants etc) afterwards, if I am so minded.
Unreal staff. Spot on! Had a few minor issues which we reported to reception for posterity, Most of these have been covered by other reviewers. A treasure in Chania. Super accommodating and helpful staff. Bravo!

SingaporeAircon didn’t work as expected on the first night. We found the place a little stuffy without it even in the winter, but this could be because we came from the tropics.
The view from our suite is unforgettably stunning. Breakfast was great and service was attentive and genuine. We had really good restaurant recommendations and ideas of what to do in Chania during our short stay here. It will be hard to come back to Chania without staying at this hotel again!

United KingdomThere wasn’t anything we didn’t like but, being really picky, the bathroom in the standard suite was a little on the small side and we didn’t really use the little lounge area on the mezzanine level so that was wasted space for us in a room with quite a small footprint, although the lofted ceiling made it feel more spacious. Generally the hotel - an historic building - was beautifully designed and sympathetically renovated.
Perfect location right on the harbour front. It was lovely to wake up to that beautiful view of the sea and the Egyptian lighthouse. All the staff were exceptional but Ramona and George in particular were so helpful and couldn’t have taken better care of us - they made our stay. The breakfasts were also amazing. We would definitely stay there again.

United StatesOur room was too close to a restaurant, would have lighting in room until around 2 am even with room darkening blinds. Noise was not a factor, sometimes cooking smells would waft up so could not really open windows, minor issues for us.
Outstanding service with concierge, very professional, recommended wonderful restaurants and places to visit, accommodations very clean, comfortable, amazing breakfasts!

United KingdomWe had a wonderful stay overall, but there are a few areas for improvement. We experienced a bit of 'abruptness' from one of the reception staff, which stood out as less welcoming. It’s possible there was a 'lost in translation' issue or a language barrier that contributed to this, as the rest of the staff were perfectly warm and welcoming. As with any hotel, there are always small quirks to figure out, such as how the shower works or how to lock the door. While the staff did assist, we got the impression that our inquiries were seen as a bit of an inconvenience—at one point, one team member even rolled their eyes while helping us. When we called about the shower, we were met with a response that felt like, "Are you sure you need us to come up?" and then the receptionist simply hung up, without a reassuring "not a problem, I'll send someone up." Again, it made us feel like we were inconveniencing the staff, which is disappointing in a 5-star hotel. Additionally, we wouldn't particularly recommend the restaurant below. For more authentic Greek and Cretan cuisine, it's worth exploring the Old Town a bit further. That said, the views were fantastic.
Beautiful hotel right on the Venetian Harbour. If you want somewhere central, you can't go wrong! We were worried about noise, as the hotel is located above a restaurant, right in the thick of it, but it wasn't an issue. Though our room wasn't a Sea View room. All in all, would highly recommend. The hotel even met us at the car park, and helped us back with our luggage.
