We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

HungaryI don’t eat sweet things and would have appreciated maybe a little bit more variety of salty breakfast to choose from, so if you are feeling similar about breakfast this might be something to consider.
The place was immaculately tidy and clean, the staff was very kind, flexible and helpful, the food was delicious, like home cooked meals. The bus stop and the sea were a few minutes walk from the hotel, and the staff was so very king and thoughtful that they packed a lunch box for us because we had to catch an early ferry back to Napoli. I loved our stay and would recommend it to anyone.

United KingdomAll good. Would recommend taking advantage of the evening meal. We decided to try the evening meal on the first night and ended up having the evening meal for the remainder of our stay. Authentic Italian food at its best. The waiter Dominic was excellent and looked after our every need. The room we had was super and if you get a Seaview the sunset is amazing to watch. This can also be observed from the first floor patio. All in all my wife and myself enjoyed our stay at the Iris Hotel. Thank you to all the staff. A class service and very welcoming.

IrelandThere is absolutely nothing
Everything about our stay was wonderful. It started even before we had even left for Italy, with Gianluca recommending Ischia taxi, who organised the ferry trip and transfers to and from the hotel for a very good price and with perfect service. Our welcome to the hotel was exceptionally friendly, and our stay exceeded our expectations the entire time. The hotel is super clean and well kept, comfortable, and has plenty of nice seating options to relax and enjoy yourself. All the staff are super friendly and helpful, the room was great and breakfast was a real highlight every day. Throughout our stay the big gestures and little touches by the staff have made this a truly memorable holiday!We don't usually go back to the same place again, but we will definitely be back at Hotel Iris!

United KingdomNothing , it was all great!
We absolutely loved our stay here . The rooms are immaculately clean, as is the whole hotel and grounds. The pool area is a little oasis and the roof terrace is perfect for an aperitif. The location is quiet and peaceful , just a short walk to the beach where you can then walk into Forio centre along the coast. Or you can catch the bus from the end of the road into Forio and around the island. All the staff are brilliant, we were made to feel very welcome and we had great advice on where to visit on this beautiful island. We stayed half board, and the food was really delicious and plentiful. Perfect stay 👌

United KingdomI can not rate Iris hotel enough! My sister and I came here for 3 nights. We were greeted by the hotel owner- Gianluca, who was just lovely. He gave us so much information about the island which was so helpful. We were given room 2, which had a sea view and balcony, where we could watch the sun set every night. The rooms were extremely clean, and were cleaned daily. The breakfast was great, basic but all fresh. The pool area, we popped to see but didn’t stay there, was also very clean. Every body here was just so friendly, we were greeted with a welcoming smile all the time. It’s about a 20 minute walk into Forio centre, which was great of an evening. The bus stop is just down the road, literally a 3 minute walk and the nearest beach and restaurants are a little further down. I would highly recommend this hotel and would definitely come to stay again. This is a 5 star, 3 star hotel! Thanks for having us!

BelgiumI can only repeat the superlatives others have shared, and it still would not be enough! Iris was exactly the cozy place that we needed for our vacation. The hotel is ideally placed a few minutes walking from the beach (it's an uphill climb from the beach to the hotel) and the bus stop and a longer but beautiful walk from Forio's center and port. The staff was incredibly welcoming and responsive even before our stay as they booked a transfer from the airport for us. Gianluca is a trove of knowledge about everything to do and see on the island - from the shop where tickets for the bus can be bought to the best bays and beaches - and adapting his recommendations depending on the weather as well! He spoke so much and put the spotlight on the beauty of Ischia but maybe did not realize that his hotel played a big part in making our vacation so enjoyable. We were fortunate that upon arrival the woman at reception asked us if we would like to stay for dinner as we wanted to try it but were worried there would be no spots left. We were in for a treat! The delicious dishes (created by Gianluca's father) and Domenico's care and humor made it feel like we had the privilege of being invited into the most hospitable Italian family's home. We had the choice between meat and fish dishes for each course, and those changed every day to highlight the diversity of the Neapolitan and Italian cuisines. We ended up having dinner at the hotel each of our 7 nights thereand I was looking forward to the moment when Domenico would tell us about the dinner menu at breakfast every day! We had no issues whatsoever and only had a request for extra toiletries as we were staying for longer which the room attendants quickly took care of too. They also maintained the hotel always spotlessly clean. Even the joy of the other guests' company is worth noting as the hotel obviously attracts those who appreciate quality. I consider ourselves lucky for staying at Iris!
