How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe hotel's location is excellent! Just 2-3 minutes walk to Monastiraki. The room was very spacious, and the bed very comfortable, and big! Christina, the property manager, was very helpful, and would respond to any questions straight away. I would definitely recommend them!
This isn't about the hotel per se, but good to know in case they can speak to their neighbours - the floor above us was making loud banging noises - not sure if there was a renovation happening, but it wasn't nice waking up to a loud banging noise.
Thank you so much for your kind review and recommendation! We also appreciate you mentioning the noise from the floor above. While this is not directly within our control, we completely understand how disruptive it can be. We will do our best to follow up with the neighboring units to help minimize disturbances in the future. Thank you again for staying with us — we’d love to welcome you back on your next visit to Athens!

Verified reviewRooms were spacious. Good location near the metro. Christina (air bnb assistant) was a helpful but unlike a hotel which 24/7, she was only available on whatsapp and only during certain hours. Supermarket down below, at street level is nice.
This is NOT a hotel or a house. The 'suites' are separate rooms - the 4th floor of a building, which they dry walled into separate rooms, in an old building in Athens city. The kind of building that you would expect to find yourself in a bathtub full of ice with one kidney missing. Also, walls and windows are not sound proof, you can hear all the noise + slamming doors in the floor where the apartment is + on the street below. Super dodge elevator that doesn't even have an inside door - you can literally see and touch the all floors and the entrance doors as the elevator moves through each floor. The staircase is winding and made of marble, smoothed down by use over the years - slippery. Not easy to find, just a door with #12 on - unlocked, that you enter the building. Christina wanted 70€ for an airport taxi transfer when I enquired. It cost me 5€ to take an uber to the bus stop where the airport bus leaves + 12€ for the ticket. Everyone here in Greece seems to quadruple the price of things from June - Aug. It's ridiculous - given it's very much 'Southern Europe'. Overall : expensive and not worth the money - rather stay in an actual hotel. There are many you can find. As a female, staying alone, I regreted my decision.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’d like to clarify a few points for future guests. As stated on our website and booking platforms, we never present ourselves as a hotel or a house — we are suites, as clearly mentioned in our name: Athens Design Suites. Our concept is focused on offering modern, comfortable suites in a central location with a self check-in process and personalized assistance. Christina is available 24/7 via WhatsApp, which is why she was able to respond immediately to all your messages, even without a traditional reception. Regarding the airport taxi transfer — the rate you were quoted was for a 4 AM pickup from the center of Athens to the airport. Taxi services in Athens have higher prices by law between midnight and 6 AM, and this applies throughout the year, not only during summer. Our suites are located in a shared historic building, but the property itself is fully renovated to provide modern, clean, and comfortable accommodations. While the common areas reflect the age of the building, this is typical in central Athens. Likewise, most elevators in older buildings in the city do not have internal doors, as this was standard in their design. To assist guests in finding us, we always provide the exact location with a Google Maps link. Our main entrance does not only display the number 12 — it also features our logo on the door. The building entrance remains unlocked during the day due to the offices inside, but it is locked in the afternoon for security. Thank you again for your comments — we appreciate the feedback and will continue striving to provide the best possible experience for our guests.

Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad you enjoyed the personal attention and service during your stay.
