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.).

The Potamia has amazing ambiance and decor, its impeccably designed, from the many outdoor balconies and patios, to the room layout, furniture and decorations. The staff is attentive, welcoming and accommodating. Great and memorable cave dwelling experience!

United KingdomNothing at all- no parking I suppose but this was easily solved with the help of the hotel who carved out a space for our car!
We absolutely loved our stay here. The building and its furnishings are beautiful- all so tastefully done. A wonderful place to relax and spend time in. Lots of little nooks and crannies and terraces to sit on, beautiful plants and antiques about the place. Very friendly and helpful owner. Loved it.

GreeceYou can park a few meters away if there is a free space; otherwise, it’s a 5-minute walk.
This remarkable location is tucked away in a peaceful corner of the village, offering stunning views of the valley. The restoration of the old cave building has been carried out with exceptional care and high aesthetic standards, seamlessly blending traditional architecture with modern furnishings. The terrace is incredible, and the unique promenade overlooking the valley is off the beaten path. The staff is friendly and fluent in English. The manager even upgraded our room for free! It was truly an exceptional experience.

CanadaI can’t say enough wonderful things about this hotel. It felt less like staying at a hotel and more like being welcomed into the home of close friends or family. The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. The decor was modern and thoughtfully designed, with great attention to detail throughout. We loved the location — it was perfectly situated for easy access to all the main attractions and sightseeing spots in Cappadocia. The views were absolutely breathtaking, and one of our favorite experiences was walking through the beautiful trail at the bottom of the valley. The breakfasts were great — delicious, varied, and beautifully presented each morning. We also met the owner, who was warm and welcoming, even inviting us to a family gathering they were hosting. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable, heartwarming stay in Cappadocia.

GermanyMinor things we didn't loke: Breakfast only from 9 o'clock, Hurling the luggage to the cave room was a bit of a workout. Bathroom was not practical (neither holder for tothbrushes or hand soap) and too dark . The curtain was difficult to use properly due to the door opening to the inside of the cave room.
The stone cave room was very nice, breakfast was very good, the view was spectacular, Bed was very comfy. Unique atmosphere of the cave room. Service was good, room clean.

AustraliaHonestly, nothing. Everything exceeded our expectations — we truly had no complaints.
We had a very nice stay at Potamia Cave Suites. The caves are in a quiet and beautiful valley, away from the busy tourist areas. Our host, Ahmed, was amazing—very kind and helpful. He made sure we were always comfortable. Breakfast was really special. Every day, they gave us different local pastries to try, which we loved. If you are visiting Cappadocia, Turney and want a peaceful and relaxing place to stay, we really recommend this place!

GermanyThe toilet may not have much privacy while staying with friends. But for couples, it’s perfect with all facilities and cleanliness.
The ambience of the property was extremely cosy, clean and serene. Well-constructed and well-maintained. The room cleaning happens everyday obviously you could opt out. The owner and the staff are always available for your queries and are open for a friendly conversation and a coffee. The breakfast table was set for us before we were there with freshly baked bread, pastry and hot coffee/tea. The location is very calm and beautiful with mountain view.

GermanyI am from Germany with Turkish background and visit yearly different parts of turkey, so I have already seen a lot. This is by far the most beautiful place that I stayed here in this country. The place is full of love for details, has an exceptional level of hygienic standard unlike other hotels here nearby we stayed in and a very exceptional nice taste. You have a beautiful view and so many nice spots to chill and relax, the rooms have a big bath tube or a Turkish bath where you can almost have a spa day when it’s raining outside. The breakfast varies daily, everything is home made and you also get clean good food. We extended our stay and are already sad that we need to leave soon. You will definitely feel comfortable around Ahmed who is very polite and easy to talk to.

AustraliaNothing. It was perfect.
Ahmet is the kindest and most attentive host of any place I have ever stayed. He has created a haven of peace and tranquility at Potamia Cave, managing most successfully to combine authentic character decor with modern conveniences, such as a brilliant hot shower, loads of power points, high speed Internet and the comfiest bed I’ve slept in for ages. A fabulous breakfast too. Plus, the views are sublime! This is one of those rare travelling experiences when the real thing is better than the photos. If you are looking for a home base in Cappadocia don’t look any further. Ahmet will take the very best care of you at the totally perfect Potamia Cave Hotel.
