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.).

Bosnia and Herzegovina"First of all, I want to praise the hosts, who are more than excellent. The entire staff is most likely helpful, smiling and professional. The rooms are clean, spacious, equipped. The food in the facility is excellent, very high-quality ingredients are used and the breakfast is superb. The hotel garden is decorated. Parking is excellent, you also have a garage. Elevator, air conditioning, close to the beach, swimming pool behind, everything is excellent, pure 10."

NetherlandsCan’t really think of anything :)
Lovely family running the hotel. Among the bigger hotels, this smaller hotel is such a relief. Beautiful garden with turtles and a little dog, the kids loved it. Great atmosphere. The neighboring pool can be accessed at EUR 10 for two beds and one parasol. Many places close by to relax on the beach. Great breakfast and food. Would definitely recommend. Also ask for the drink they make themselves made out of raki and walnuts. Thanks for the great stay!

CanadaNothing really. My oldest son loves having a pool and even though Bel Ami doesn't have one, for €10 we were able to use the one from the adjacent hotel.
I chose Bel Ami based on the reviews even though we were looking for something closer to Vlore city center and something beach front. I am very happy I did because the staff, the room, breakfast, turtles and even the location turned out to be exactly what our family needed. Staff is so polite, welcoming and helpful. Room was super clean and spacious; breakfast was delicious and with lots of options; the turtles in the garden were the highlight for my kids everytime we ate. And the location, even though it is further from city center and not beach front it is super close to great beaches in Orikum. We also did day trips to Dhermi and Himare and it was great to be closer to them as our 1 year old doesn't like long car drives. Overall, we all loved this place.

AlbaniaHighly Recommended! I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed. Breakfast was fresh and delicious every morning, and I especially appreciated the attention to detail throughout my stay. I would definitely return and recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area!

United KingdomWe stayed preseason and were the only customers at the hotel, therefore other than breakfast they never opened the restaurant. We chose this hotel specifically because of its restaurant which it clearly stated would be open during our stay. It was very disappointing at the time, more so because there is very little around it other than building and construction sites. Fortunately, there was a small Italian restaurant within walking distance which was open. The hotel will be great for an overnight stay after the 15th of June not before.
The Hotel, the staff, the rooms and the breakfast were all fabulous. There is also a lovely little garden at the rear of the hotel with tortoises roaming around which is quite novel.

BelgiumThe mattress was too hard for our liking.
The hotel is rather new. We had a very spacious room, which was practical as we were travelling with two dogs. We were also lucky to have a great sea view. The breakfast was delicious with local and home-made produce. The hostess was very welcoming and assisting. It was only a pity that their restaurant wasn't yet open (it was still off season), but there are some restaurants in a walking distance.

Czech RepublicNo direct access to the beach is the only disadvantage.
This hotel is your best friend when you need to relax after travelling. Not here for the first time and I can see the service is still very good. Run-by-the-owner model ensures high quality and you feel the care everywhere. Dont miss great breakfast with homemade cake or jam outside the hotel in the garden and your kids can try to find all 13 turtles hidden there:-)

GermanyThere was nothing to complain.
We had a great stay in the family run hotel. We were impressed by the cleanliness and the excellent breakfast. There were homemade jams, fresh butter, fresh whey, a custom-made egg and small freshly made pancakes to fill. You can feel the love with which the hotel is run. The garden was a small oasis of well-being. The walk to the beach takes 5 minutes. We were all alone at the beginning of October, there were 2 loungers on the public pebble beach. There were further sandy beaches in the area and within walking distance. The price performance is unbeatable! BTW: There were also a few power outages, many hotels had no power or light. But this hotel has a backup generator therefor we had power the whole time. Other hotels in the area didn't have that. I think this is worth mentioning.

GermanyBe aware that the location is near the beach, quite far from the center of Orikum and along a road that cannot really be walked. You need a car. Besides, you can only pay in cash, don't forget to bring money.
Nice, spaceous room with a very comfortable bed. Overall very clean, good facilities. The breakfast buffet was big and varied, with lots of local specialties and regional products. Fantastic! And the owner was just lovely.

Staff was so friendly and helpful, rooms were clean and comfortable, breakfast was delicious. There were plenty of beaches close by but the one closest did not have chairs and umbrellas so we ended up having to go to another beach. The staff was very helpful in recommending one to us.
