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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

AustraliaIt was perfect.
We recently stayed at Akanthus Hotel Ephesus, and we must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The first thing we noticed was the impeccable cleanliness throughout the hotel. Every corner, from the courtyard and the lobby to the rooms, was spotless and well-maintained. The service was outstanding. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and eager to help with any request, making us feel truly welcome and valued as a guest. Their professionalism and warmth added a personal touch to our stay. The ambiance of the hotel was wonderfully cozy. The room was tastefully decorated, with comfortable furnishings that made it feel like a home away from home. The atmosphere was perfect for relaxation, enhanced by the soothing, relaxing music playing softly in the background. One of the highlights of our stay was the breakfast. It was absolutely delicious, with a wide variety of options to choose from. Every item was freshly prepared and bursting with flavour, providing the perfect start to our day. Overall, Akanthus Hotel Ephesus offers a perfect blend of cleanliness, excellent service, coziness, and culinary delights. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Everything! The breakfast was delicious, beds were very comfortable and the staff was attentive down to every detail. We went on 2 all-day excursions with their driver Muharam was the best! He is a very safe driver, fun and informative, and accommodating. If you’re traveling to Selçuk, I can’t recommend the Akanthus more highly!

This hotel was one of the highlights of our visit to Turkey! The photos don’t do it justice, the hotel is spectacular, the views, atmosphere and staff are just amazing. Parking was easy, we walked everywhere, including to the St. John’s basilica, Ephesus museum, and temple of Artemis, great restaurants walking distance and quiet at night. The breakfast in the morning was great too. This is the best hotel!

We got off to a good start in this beautiful hotel when we got a free room upgrade! We had an amazing three nights in Selçuk in this cosy boutique hotel. The staff were helpful , knowledgeable and welcoming. The breakfast was delicious. The hotel doesn’t have a restaurant for evening meals but directed us to some excellent restaurants nearby. The beds were supremely comfortable and the room was airy and bright. Reception organised a wonderful tour for us to nearby Ephesus.

Absolutely beautiful property. A haven after a day of sightseeing to unwind and avail of the hospitality. We were upgraded and the Manager, Soner could not have been more helpful and attentive. The breakfast was true Turkish style with a selection of freshly cooked eggs in various styles. A small boutique hotel with every attention to detail. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

United KingdomThis is a beautiful and comfortable boutique hotel, owned and run by the nicest people. It is stylish without being overly precious. Look out for the beautiful textiles used in the decor, some from Muharrem’s parents’ collection. Our room was comfortably appointed, with good quality bed linen. Breakfast is a wonderful, typically Turkish spread with all manner of fruit, greens, cheeses, olives, breads and preserves. Tea and coffee are always available, as is fresh homemade cake. Soner and Muharrem gave us good tips on where to eat, and were just very welcoming and hospitable generally. Selçuk itself is a charming little place, good to explore on foot. So glad we stayed here, and not in resort-y Kusadasi, although we did go there for an excellent meal and beautiful sunset one evening.

Fantastic property. The attention to detail is outstanding. Muharrem takes care of everything. They offer beer and wine service, individual containers for breakfast items. Fastidiously clean. They arranged a private tour and since we had a car saved 80% off the listed price. The property has wonderful views over the rooftops by the pool. We would definitely stay here again.

United StatesThere was nothing that I didn’t like. I was traveling with family. They were in adjacent rooms and they were also very pleased.
The property was beautiful and calm. Felt like we were in sanctuary with a pleasant courtyard with a swimming pool and a view overlooking the city. The city was not skyscrapers but red tiled roofs and palm trees. We opted to have breakfast included and it was a wonderful non American breakfast. There were egg choices, a variety of cheeses and yogurt and bread, as well as fruit. They offered American coffee as well as Turkish coffee and tea.They also kept cake on a cake platter so if you wanted a slice in the afternoon, you could easily get an afternoon snack. Also beverages were served in the courtyard by the pool, if you desired. Options included coffee, tea, wine and beer.
