Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

IndiaSince it was standard double the room was little small for two people. It was difficult to keep the bags...Also one suggestion, kindly keep a soap tray for the soap in the bathroom.
The hotel was a lovely heritage stay. The room was very well maintained and clean. The staff were polite friendly and helpful. Value for money.

United KingdomBooked this property after having looked at the communal areas/terraces. These were not in a good state of repair and were disappointing. Made the most of it in the evenings after getting a candle from staff but could be much improved.
Location. Clean bathroom. Hot shower. Clean bedding. Reasonable breakfast - egg, toast, fruit, tea/coffee. Staff helped when our bus was cancelled.

IndiaHeavily crowded locality, and no private parking. Old building, with visible wear and tear. Washrooms were okay, but could be cleaner.
Courteous staff, always willing to be of help. Good location for visitors. Mr. Raja was always there to help, especially to park our car on the busy road side.

IndiaThe beautiful heritage property is excellently situated, with the major attractions located at a stone's throw. The beach is a 7-8 min walk, white town is nearby, and there are also pubs, seafood restaurants and scooty hiring shops within 1-1.5km. The caretaker, Mr. Raja, is a gem of a person. He went out of his way to ensure we have a memorable stay. He answered all our queries, and even, cooked us traditional Tamil breakfast on our last day, even before breakafast time, because we had to leave early. If you are looking for a memorable stay at Pondy, this is a great option.

The location was perfect. It’s close to most of the attractions and the promenade beach . Staff were very nice. The manager Raja was accommodating and kind. I traveled with my parents and he let have a late check out. The other staff were also welcoming.

ThailandMy room was small. OK for one person, but two would struggle. Perhaps the rooms upstairs are larger?
Very friendly place right in the middle of Pondy. It really feels like living in a period house. Cool and quiet, warm welcome by attentive management. The best part was the excellent breakfast (Western or South Indian) taken at a communal table so conversation flows. Strongly recommended!!

IndiaOnly a small issue arose as water leaked from the AC unit with drops of water directly falling in the bed underneath, but we dragged the bed away from the wall and problem was resolved.
Room and bath was really clean, no issues with hygiene, property is a heritage one, hence, rooms are a bit small. But very comfortable. Staff were helpful and helped with renting a scooty as well for 300/- per day. Nothing to complain, but we never tried the complimentary breakfast during our 3 nights 4 days stay and hence can not comment on the same, but I saw foreigners and Indians enjoying their breakfast, so assuming that it must be good. Overall, value for money, good location, comfortable stay and a happy customer here.
