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.).

United KingdomExcellent Hotel in a incredible location. There was so much to enjoy but most of all we we loved the stunning deck chairs on the the rocks for sunrise and sunset swims - simply of the off the scale. Villa was clean, spacious and had glorious views of the bay. Breakfast was delicious with a wide choice including some traditional Greek treats and we managed a game of Tennis before the temperatures hit 30. Access to the Fiscardo port area was easy and we enjoyed dining both in the Hotel restaurant with it's sunset views and in the port which offered a range of options on the quay behind the super yachts. We scuba dived the 'Wall' and 'Cargo wreak' locally with Fiscardo Divers - for a really enjoyable morning. Can't wait to return.

FranceFor the price paid, The service was not 5 star in the réception and on the ammenities we needed. We expected to be much more « spoiled » Breakfast is ok but not wow, not luxurious . The cosmetics in the shower are in small bottles not nice for the planet.
Property is Lovely and the adults pool is a wonder. Another highlight is the private Rocky beach area, astonishing!

United KingdomThe hotel sets high expectations, everything is really well thought at Emelisse. So if you are staying in other well-known 4-5 star hotels in Kefalonia afterwards, you might be disappointed :)
We had a great time at Emelisse. Very clean and nice room, super friendly and helpful staff and captivating sea views on every corner - whether you are relaxing by the pool or enjoying breakfast on the terrace or just walking down the rock for a swim in a crystal clear waters. What made our stay most memorable though is people - we were treated with utmost care and generosity by the staff. Travelling with a 1 year old baby we had many fears of how to feed him and whether it will be comfortable for him - everything was amazing: all our special requests regarding food during breakfast (which was delicious) were gladly accommodated and the hotel overall turned out to be a perfect place for a vacation with a baby. Highly recommended.

BelgiumThe access to the resort needs some effort. Also the access to the sea from the hotel may be improved. The price was a little bit high in my view.
Nice location, with somehow difficulté access to the sea. Nice, big swimming pool. In fact the resort has several swimming pools. To access the nearby village (Fiskardo) the hotel has a bus every half an hour. Rooms with no view to the sea are less interesting than the one with view to the sea. Rooms are cleaned every day. The staff is polite and helpful. This is a major advantage. Various activities are organised and services such as spa, tennis court, … are available. I used massage in the spa and it was very relaxing and helpful to to relieve the pain in my back. Very good breakfast is offered on two nice verandas with beautiful view to the Ionian Sea.
