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 StatesLiked it all.
The hotel was adorable, with unique features and the most amazing breakfast every morning. The staff were all kind and helpful and the room was clean and charming. The location was an easy walk to the main sites in Athens, and easily accessible by metro.

United StatesThe view to the Acropolis is pretty minimal in the Acropolis view room (photos are accurate) so I'd just recommend staying in a regular room and viewing the Acropolis from outside. But nothing wrong with the rooms at all! Very comfortable beds and the AC was much appreciated.
Such a great location to stay in Athens. Walking distance to the cute Plaka neighborhood streets, the Acropolis, and the meeting spots for most tours. We stayed one night in the Acropolis view room and one night in a regular double room. The staff were wonderful and the breakfast was even better than expected: yogurt, eggs, fruit, juice, french toast, etc.

United StatesI absolutely adored staying at Sweet Home Hotel. This was a solo leisure trip I tacked onto a work trip and the staff was outstanding at making me feel incredibly comfortable and making a stay easy and relaxing while being on my own exploring Greece for the first time. The staff was super helpful with advice/recommendations and interested to hear about my experiences as well (it’s clear they are interested in keeping their information up to date for future guest!). The room was spacious, had great A/C, and the bathroom had beautiful state of art fixtures with a high pressure rain shower head (a nice surprise for a downtown major city hotel). My bedroom window had an unexpected, fantastic view of the Parthenon - which was gorgeous to look at lit up at night. The location is city center and I could walk to every landmark / site on my list. The bed was comfy and I slept great. The breakfast buffet in the morning was fresh, plentiful, and delicious with broad hours - accommodating an early morning or a sleep in. If I return to Athens - I would want to stay here again!
