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 reviewI had a truly lovely stay at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and helpful – always ready with a smile and quick to assist with any questions or requests. The hotel itself is beautifully located in a calm and peaceful area, which made it the perfect place to unwind and relax. I really appreciated the privacy and space; it never felt crowded, and there were plenty of quiet corners to enjoy. The view from the hotel was stunning – especially during sunrise and sunset – and the pool area was clean, well-maintained, and offered a great spot to relax and soak up the sun. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience. If you’re looking for a tranquil escape with kind staff and beautiful surroundings, I can highly recommend this place. I would definitely love to come back!

Verified reviewThe room was perfect - clean, beautiful furniture, a/c, comfortable beds - a welcome stop after a long journey! Beautiful pool outside with an amazimg view of the sea and islands. Breakfast was also very good. Wish we'd had more time there! Ksamil was more active in terms of night life than other places we stayed in Albania, and this hotel was located in the perfect place. Probably a 10-15 minute walk to the nightclubs (far enough that you couldn't hear them), and a 5 minute walk down the hill to several beaches. Also, a 15 minute cab ride to Butrint. Would definitely stay there again.

Verified reviewGreat location in a quieter part of Ksamil. Clean, rooms with modern furnishings. Breakfast was buffet style with a good selection of hot and cold food, tea and coffee, eaten on the verandah, under the vines, with views over to Corfu. Would recommend the Sunflower beach facilities close by, not as crowded as the main part of town and reasonable priced loungers and umbrellas

Verified reviewSet high up on the hill, the views were amazing. Great swimming pool and a lovely table area to sit and enjoy the view. Basic accommodation but clean and comfortable. The airconditioning works well. A short walk into town along the road, or down a dirt path to the beaches. Generous breakfast and sweet staff members.
The pool could do with some umbrellas, as the shade from the olive trees was a bit sparse.

Verified reviewHad the best time staying at Vila Bello and was very sad to leave! This hotel faces the coast and is away from the main strip which means a little extra walking but we felt it was so worth it for the peaceful resort feel (a lot of the other Ksamil properties are all stacked on top of each other). You can cut down a little hillside and take the coastal walk to the main beach clubs which was a lovely 10-15 min walk. The pool area was glorious, as was the terrace overlooking the ocean with grape vines growing overhead. The wifi was really good and I was able to take meetings and check messages from over most of the parts of the grounds. They put on a great spread for breakfast. The lady who runs breakfast service was an absolute gem. Thanks so much for making our morning each day & thanks to the rest of the staff for a lovely stay.
I struggled with the very very firm bed.

Verified reviewVilla Bello was great. Amazing views and a great location (a fast road down the hill to the promenade), everything in walking distance. Loved the terrace where breakfast was served and the pool (nice and warm in July) although the pool is deep (not suitable for children who cannot swim). The room was spacious, had a fridge and a good shower, air condition alao good. Very friendly and nice staff!
The only things to improve is the location on Google Maps/Booking, it was difficult to find with a car. And the pillows were huge and a bit uncomfortable.

Verified reviewThis stay has totally exceeded our expectations. It is a privately owned establishment, not too big, yet family friendly. The suite we had was modern, well-furnished and very comfortable. The breakfast was exceptional. Good selection every day with certain bits and pieces that changed daily. The mom makes the bureks herself and they were absolutely divine. The family is very friendly and welcoming, we felt well received and taken care of from the very beginning. This trip is our babymoon trip and the mom asked about me and the baby's well-being every day. I cannot recommend this place enough, great value for money, a bit removed from the hustle and bustle of the main strip, but still conveniently close to beaches and the centre (f.ex. walking to Bora Bora beach was around 20-25min, walking to the nearest market was about 5min on the main street). It is also a perfect spot to watch the sunset. If I ever come back to Ksamil, this is where I will be staying.
