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...).

United KingdomVery hard to park around the area. But I guess this is an issue for all business around there. Not certain if there is an underground parking. We used a taxi but it was hard for friends of us to find a parking spot.
Elegant building in a leafy area. Felt like travelling in another era. The lift is amazing as well. Really looks like a time machine. The staff were very polite, the room very comfy and spacious and the breakfast very tasty and beautifully presented. The building in general is very well maintained.

United States30 min drive to the center and the carpet had stains all over even though the rest of the room was very clean, especially the bathroom. Needs a little renovating but has a classic feel to it.
Beautiful historical building in the middle of the upscale suburban neighborhood Kifisia. I was upgraded to a huge suite with a balcony and a kitchen.

We chose the same hotel for our second visit to Greece. The room was beautiful and spacious, with our own kitchenette and a large veranda where we could enjoy our upgraded breakfast each morning! We stayed there for 6 nights!

This was a great experience. Good location in the northern suburbs, super clean hotel, polite and helpful staff, great ambience. Attention paid to every detail - which makes a difference.

Junior suite was very spacious. Excellent location if you prefer to stay away from Athens crowds. The train station to the center was a 15 min walk. Coffee and water station were excellent perks.

United KingdomWhile the hotel cleanliness is overall good, the cream carpets of its suites look definitely tired and may well use some attention.
Overall The Kefalari ranks high in my list when I travel to Athens. It is located in a very nice area of town, secure and with good facilities surrounding it.

IsraelThe room was a little smaller than i expected and the breakfast in the box was not really nice, especially since there is no real place to eat it, even worse if you are a couple. Parking might also be a challenge...
Very central and close to all you need, food, bars etc. also close to the train station. The staff are really great. Nice and pampering towels, soaps and other nice things.

SwitzerlandThe whole room had an old fitted carpet (moquette) that was stained. It didn't feel very hygienic. The room would look much cleaner without it. It seems a bit out of date to use fitted carpets in hotels nowadays.
