How this score works

The score estimates how strongly this place's review record matches known manipulation patterns, from 0 (no signs) to 100. Verdicts: Clean below 40, Suspicious from 40, Likely Manipulated from 70; Review Drive when the flags are mostly staff asking customers for named reviews. It rises with the share of reviews flagged and how suspicious each one is.

Burst
— an abnormal spike of five-star reviews in a single day compared to the place's usual pace.
Low activity account
— the reviewer has almost no other reviews, photos, or Local Guide history; throwaway accounts look like this.
Duplicate text
— the wording is nearly identical to another review of the same place.

Verdicts are statistical estimates based on public review patterns, not accusations. Full methodology, signal definitions and known limits →

Review brief

What reviews not flagged by Revdict say

Reviewers report that the hotel offers a quiet mountainous setting with scenic views and spacious rooms, though many guests feel the property falls short of its advertised five-star rating. While the staff and food receive frequent praise, several visitors highlight issues with cleanliness and a remote location that requires a shuttle or car.

The place is beautiful. The views are stunning. The hotel rooms are tastefully decorated. The only downside is that the meals lack variety for a 5-star hotel.

Scenic Location and Pools

Guests appreciate the peaceful mountain setting, beautiful views, and multiple swimming pool options.

This beautiful hotel nestles on the hills with a stunning and relaxing view of Bali. I highly recommend the hotel to anyone seeking peace and quiet, a respite from the daily hustle and bustle of the city. The food is delicious, with juicy f...

The hotel has a beautiful location—the mountain views are truly impressive, especially from the pools, which, although small, are beautifully situated. The service was attentive, and a big plus was that we were allowed to stay longer on che...

Hmm, unfortunately, this hotel is definitely not worth 5 stars, not even 4. Hardly anything has been repaired in recent years, and almost nothing is being repaired. Nearly all the bathrooms and toilets are damaged. Hygiene and cleanliness a...

The blood on our bed sheets was the stand out. But everything else didn’t fall far behind. To begin with, everything was filthy, I don’t understand how this hotel can have a five star rating. Our bed sheets were covered in mystery stains, i...

Star Rating Discrepancy

A recurring complaint is that the hotel does not live up to a five-star standard and feels closer to a three-star property.

Ladies and gentlemen, this hotel isn't 5 stars, at most 3. We feel cheated... we feel a bit fooled because we trusted all those great reviews about a hotel that isn't "great." I don't want to believe these reviews are true... I'd just like...

Shuttle and Location Access

Reviewers note that the hotel is remote and that the beach shuttle can be unreliable, crowded, or limited in frequency.

Really nice staff. The food was varied. Lots of stairs and elevation changes. The hotel offered a minibus ride back and forth to the beach in Bali, but you often had to queue for the ride.

5★ · 2026-06-11

Nice hotel, but a bit far from the beach; you absolutely have to take the shuttle. We rented a car for the week, which was much easier for exploring Crete. The staff is very pleasant and helpful, especially Maria. The evenings are enjoyable...

Good for

  • Travelers seeking a quiet and relaxing mountain retreat
  • Guests who plan to rent a car to explore Crete
  • Visitors looking for all-inclusive value with multiple pools

Avoid if

  • You expect true luxury matching a strict 5-star hotel standard
  • You prefer walking straight to the beach without a shuttle
  • You are sensitive to cleanliness issues or outdated room furnishings

My stay at Filion Suites Resort and Spa was, without a doubt, the worst hotel experience I’ve ever had. The hotel is noticeably old, which wouldn’t be an issue if proper maintenance and cleaning were in place—but unfortunately, they aren’t. Our room had no internet access, neither through the hotel...

We spent three nights here with two young children. We had a lovely hotel room near a children's pool. The food was good, and the beds were perfect. The children and I had a great time. We would definitely recommend it to others.
