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 Bold Type Hotel is very well located on top of the hill in Patras. It is an old villa and has only ten rooms. The pool is neatly positioned in the backyard away from the hussle of Patras. The rooms are relativley small but very stylishly decorated. The bathooms are top notch with all necessary amenities. The staff is super friendly. Breakfast is in the backyardvclose to the pool and one can decide from number of delicious options.
We had a room facing the backyard and away from the traffic. The rooms facing the other side might be a little noisier.

It is a great pleasure for us to read such positive comments about our location, the aesthetics of the hotel, the atmosphere of our courtyard and of course the service from our team – who strives every day to offer a warm, personal hospitality experience. We are particularly pleased that you enjoyed your room, the decoration, as well as the amenities of the bathroom. Regarding the noise in some rooms, thank you for your observation – it is something we try to manage as best as possible regarding the current type of our building. We hope to see you again soon and host you again in our peaceful courtyard, with another coffee or breakfast by the pool! Best regards, Konstantinos Front Desk

Verified reviewLovely renovation and fabulous room.
It doesn’t really have an indoor gathering/bar area for cooler weather. It’s very outdoor oriented.
Dear Patrick, We thank you very much for your observation and for taking the time to write to us. Indeed, our spaces are designed with an emphasis on the outdoor experience, in order to make the most of the natural environment and the atmosphere of summer. However, we understand the need for a more sheltered indoor bar, especially during the colder months or evening hours, and it is something that we are already considering for future improvement. We appreciate your suggestions, as they help us to continuously evolve and we hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again. Best regards, Konstantinos Front Desk
