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 KingdomThe breafast was limited.
The staff were really friendly, professional and helpful. The room was cleaned every day. The location was perfect and central to everywhere in Durress. They also contacted the sister hotel in Golem, where i was able to use the facilities for free for the entire day.

The hotel was very convenient for everything we had expected culture, food & close to the sea. The hotel was in a good location and easy to walk to most places.

United KingdomThe bathroom was clean but small and a little on the tired side.
One of the best-preserved buildings in Durrës. It’s been really well maintained and has a lot of character. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the location is ideal; in the centre, and close(ish) to the waterfront, bars, and restaurants. Staff were helpful throughout, especially in the restaurant where the food was great. The à la carte breakfast was excellent. Would definitely recommend

United KingdomThis is a superb option for a stay in Durrës. The hotel is impeccably managed and the staff are totally customer focused. Breakfast is superb and the hotel’s food is very very good. We don’t often take our evening meals in the hotel in which we stay. We ate here twice. The menu is diverse and prices are fantastic. Great atmosphere!

AustraliaWe had a fabulous stay at Hotel Epidamn mostly due to the sparkling, efficient and friendly service we received from all the staff. We were made to feel special. We loved the location in the heart of all the activity and close to beaches and fabulous restaurants. The old world feel of the hotel is unique and fun, the rooms generous, well appointed and very clean. The bed was perfect for a great sleep

SwedenWe stayed at the suite, and it was truly beyond my expectations. The space was much larger than I anticipated, beautifully designed, and incredibly comfortable. One of the highlights was the bathtub right in the room—such a luxurious touch! The balcony was huge and offered a view of the ocean—perfect for relaxing with a coffee in the morning right next to the palmtrees. Combined with the hotel's exceptional service, ideal location near the beach and main street, and the great breakfast, this stay was nothing short of perfect. The staff was really serviceminded and helpful to every single aspect. Dinner was easily a 5 star one. We really had an exceptional stay and can’t wait to come back! Thank you for this experience, until next time!

SwedenNothing at all.
I had an absolutely amazing stay at this hotel. Everything exceeded my expectations. The staff were exceptional—professional, kind, and always ready to help with anything I needed. Special thank you to one lady at the reception. She helped out with booking a cake for my mothers birthday, really walked the extra mile with ordering and making it a surprise to always remember at the dinner. The dinner itself was really a 5 star. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to both the beach and the main street, making it super convenient to explore the area. The breakfast each morning was delicious and offered a great variety. I truly felt welcomed and well taken care of throughout my stay. We used the turkish hamam as well. What a nice treat. We even extended the stay for one night. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely return!

United KingdomThe hotel has a strange coffee policy. You are only allowed one cup with breakfast (included with room). Any additional cups are charged for. Also, our room had a coffee machine with pods which we thought was great and used on the first morning. We asked for more pods the next day and were told that these are only supplied on the first day of your visit! They really need to change this policy as the hotel is really excellent in every other respect - they might be saving a small amount of money but it is very annoying and a lot of people have mentioned it as a negative in their reviews
Beautiful old building - interior decor very nicely done with lots of ornate dark wood and ornaments. Our room was a nice size and had its own private roof terrace overlooking Epidamn Boulevard. All the staff were very polite and attentive and spoke good English. The breakfast was excellent - not a buffet, but a choice from an à la carte menu. We had lunch in the hotel a couple of times, which was really delicious and very reasonably priced. We used the hammam (free for guests) which was just a big steamy room. Quite nice to relax in for a bit. Otherwise there are massage treatments on offer but we didn’t try these. The location is perfect for exploring Durrës - very near the amphitheater and Venetian Tower and a few minutes walk to the sea front and beach

AustraliaThere was nothing I didn't like.
I loved my room with the dormer window & gorgeous views over the town. Wonderful meals in the restaurant, with very attentive staff. Also loved the old worldie dacor & the atmosphere of the hotel. The price of the booking was a nice surprise & very cheap, but I was Mid May, shoulder season i guess?
