Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaBrand new hotel with high end finishes and attention to detail. What makes this hotel 5 star are its staff. Harra, Dinitri and the team provide excellent care for your every need, nothing is too much trouble. The breakfast is excellent. The location is excellent. There are only 5 rooms so service is very personable. The restaurant is very good. The rooms are well appointed with high quality amenities. I liked the magnolia scented bath products. Highly recommend.

AustraliaThe property was beautiful, so lovely designed, spacious, clean and had every possible facility needed. The breakfast was in their beautiful restaurant and was really delicious. The last day we had to leave really early before breakfast so they brought us breakfast for the road which was so generous. And our luggage got lost at the airport and they were so helpful making sure it got dropped off to us and left it in our room. Felt like a piece of luxury in the heart and centre of Athens. The location was perfect to get everywhere and so convenient and so nicely air conditioned to escape the heat of Athens.

I had the most wonderful stay at the Emerald Hotel in Athens. Tucked away in the heart of the city, this boutique gem perfectly combines charm, comfort, and character. From the moment I arrived, the warm hospitality made me feel at home, yet every detail still felt special and thoughtfully curated. The hotel itself is beautifully designed—stylish yet cozy, with unique touches that give it so much personality. My room was spotless, comfortable, and filled with natural light, offering the perfect retreat after exploring Athens. Despite being right in the city center, it felt like a calm oasis where I could truly relax. What really sets the Emerald Hotel apart is the atmosphere. It doesn’t feel like a standard hotel, but more like a secret haven that’s both intimate and welcoming. The location is unbeatable too—just steps from the main attractions, great restaurants, and vibrant neighborhoods.

AustraliaCouldn’t fault it as a boutique, stylish hotel. With staff who go above and beyond. We arrived on an early morning flight into Athens. They held our luggage and as soon as the room was available they notified us via WhatsApp well before check in time that we could use it.

FranceQuite slow for breakfast service, but nothing unusual for Athenes (and we didn’t mention we were in a hurry, so that’s on us as well).
Fantastic little hotel in the heart of Athenes. Location is ideal, the staff was very friendly and the amenities are of premium quality. We stayed in the Uranus room, with the private terrasse above that is perfect for morning coffee.

I liked that it was close to restaurants, shops, and at least 15-20 mins to all the attractions. It was nice that breakfast was offered in a place just around the corner and that they had outdoor/indoor spaces. The building and room was kept very clean. The staff, Hara, Demetri, and others in the restaurant were extremely helpful and kind. I could not have asked for a better staff team for my first time in Athens. They checked in on me often, helped with my luggage given there wasn’t an elevator, and helped coordinate airport transportation. I appreciated their kindness as a solo, female traveler.

We absolutely loved our stay at Emerald Athens Hotel! The staff were super friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. I was a bit nervous about the lack of a lift (as mentioned in some reviews), but they offered to carry our bags up during check-in and back down when we checked out – no issues at all. The hotel is modern and super clean. Our room was tidied and refreshed every day, even when we didn’t expect it. Breakfast was delicious – you can order two dishes from the menu, and the portions are generous! They also gave us a welcome drink at a nearby restaurant, which was a lovely surprise. On our last day, we had to leave early for a ferry and thought we’d miss breakfast, but the staff made us free sandwiches to take with us – such a kind gesture. The location is great – walking distance to major sites and only about 15 minutes to the Acropolis. Highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Athens. The little details and great service made our stay really special!

United KingdomTiny niggles on a brand new hotel. Not worth putting here as all will be ironed out. The hotel is connected to a restaurant that provides the breakfast (all the same business). There is no elevator if you have heavy luggage or need accessibility.
This boutique hotel was brand new when we stayed in Dec 24. The rooms are exquisite. High ceilings, high end fittings and amazing decor. We stayed in ‘aide’ the name of the room. The manager was extremely attentive and engaging.

GreeceOverall a wonderful experience in Athens. The rooms are very spacious with a sense of luxury, and the amenities are beyond expectations. Walking distance to many points of interest, concerts, great dinners and posh shopping experience. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and special on our stay. What makes Emerald Athens so special, beyond its unique architecture and style, is its restaurant, which offers modern Greek cuisine paired with a large wine list—sure to satisfy even the most discerning food lovers. We will definitely be back!
