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.).

United StatesThe first bed was uncomfortable but moved to another room and that bed was very comfortable.
The location was exceptional! Couldn't be better. Our room had a large balcony/patio with an outstanding view. The rooms were surprisingly quiet as soon as the windows were closed even though we were in an active and high traffic area.

The view was lovely for morning cuppa & sunset with awning to shade the sun. Just like the photos. Location seeing the plaza from our balcony so easy to see what was happening amongst the locals.

EstoniaOccasionally, you can hear your neighbours and acitivity in the halls quite well. During our last night, there was a very loud ventilator (?) sound coming from somewhere in the hotel. But if you travel with earplugs, it's ok. Overall, it was still one of the best stays I've had in a hotel :)
First, we were greeted by a very nice and polite man at the reception desk. He was our favorite, but the rest of the staff was also super nice. Our room was small and maybe not the most modern, but it had everything we needed. The balcony was also a great bonus. Considering the perfect location, you can stay at this hotel for a very reasonable price and I would definitely recommend staying there and stay there again myself.

GeorgiaThe building itself is very old and doesn't seem to be built as a hotel, but I guess it is the case for most of the hotels in Plaka neighborhood. Despite the description, it has no heating. There was only an air conditioner, which you can switch to "heat" and it takes circa 30 minutes to make the room warm. I understand that you don't need heating for the most of year in Athens, but my girlfriend and I visited Athens in late January and it was pretty cold. The other crazy thing was the BED. Upon our arrival they didn't have a room with big bad so they gave us one with two small beds ... take a deep breath ... They have ROLLERS!!! Yes, they roll like hospital beds. Imagine to have sex on a small bad with rollers (!!!). You can't even simply keep them together to sleep like a couple. For fairness sake, they DID CHANGE the room after we asked, so we had to sleep separately for two days only.
First of all, the STAFF is fantastic! I mean it! The ladies are very nice and helpful, LOVE THEM, really no complains what so ever! The location is probably the best possible. If you visit Athens you should definitely take a hotel in Plaka neighborhood and this hotel is in the middle of it. From the airport you take bus X95 and it takes you about 600 meters to the hotel. The subway station "Acropoli" is also quite close. All the major interesting things including the Acropolis itself are at a walking distance. You can find several very nice cafes (I recommend "Souvlaki" near subway station Acropoli), some small (tiny) stores around and one relatively big market named "ΑΒ something..."

Lovely little 70s style hotel right in the heart of Plaka, near Acropolis and Syntagma. Clean, tidy, had everything I needed for an overnight stopover including a huge balcony space. Staff were very helpful and congenial, the owner kindly gave me a piece of seasonal vasilopita (cake) whilst I was waiting for my Uber (€44 to airport). I'd stay there again.
