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...).

IndiaBeds are not comfortable - mattresses are old and sinking in. Good to remember that some of the rooms do not have the shower/toilet en suite. You have to step out of the room. Tough to get taxis during peak hours. The walk out of the lane is not 100 meters - but more. The non-refundable policy is enforced without any discussion entertained. I needed to take a flight out a day earlier - and there was simply a rejection for my request without any conversation.
Beautiful haveli which has restored. The ambiance is very nice The staff is helpful and works hard at meeting all requests The area is surrounded by other heritage homes / old homes Easy to get an auto once you are out of the lane - onto the main road Food places and places to visit are accessible from this location

United KingdomPrivate terrace had not been cleaned. Room was clean, but was not cleaned, or bins emptied during our stay. We were offered room cleaning on day 3. No toilet paper. Internet worked some of the time but often didn’t.
Beautiful heritage property, restored old Haveli, down alleyways in the old city. Large comfortable room, big comfortable bed, spacious shower with good hot water. Private terrace overlooking street and rooftops. Friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast.

GermanyI didn’t like the neighborhood we walked through to get there. It was a little off the way for the sights we wanted to see and not all Tuktuk s drove us to the door.
I liked that it was an old house and well restored. The mattress was soft. It was charming. I liked the book exchange shelf and looking over the rooves of the neighborhood.

IndiaRooms need renovation. I know it's a heritage property, but it can be renovated to add big stairs if not lift. Also, walls need to be repainted. Cars don't reach, so you can't take a taxi but need to take auto or walk. There are not many food options. If you don't want to eat in the hotel, then you have to walk for at least 15 mins to get something, which is not good if you have small kids or old people within your group.
Heritage stay, staff, and the balcony attached with my room, to name a few.

TaiwanIf you are planning to stay in the Chabutaro room, do remember to bring earplugs because it's at the front of the house and you can hear any noise outside quite clearly. We had earplugs and it was not a problem.
The old house has been very well restored and maintained. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

GermanyBe aware that it is not so easy to reach the place by tuktuk. There is another place with a similar name, so they can get confused sometimes.
The people at French Haveli are really welcoming and helpful. The guest house looks super beautiful and made us very comfortable. The place is in a calm corner of the old city, so it is pretty quiet compared to the rest of the area. We will definitively come back if we are in Ahmedabad :).

United KingdomThe old town is noisy - we were woken up by motorbikes, drumming and the property's own water tank motor very early in the morning. The property could be improved with more attention to detail e.g. nicer towels. The property is not suitable for anyone with mobility issues as the stairs to the bedrooms are very steep.
Liked the location in the old town and the beauty of the building. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly.

GermanyAt the end when we paid the bill, we have to pay 2.000 Rs for tea not knowing that we have to pay for every extra cup of tea. Nobody communicate it in advance but that would be better.
Wonderful location in the old town of Ahmedabad - quiet and nice accommodation. Very friendly and polite stuff - especially the one who did all the cleaning, preparing the breakfast, preparing the rooms - unfortunately we saw him sleeping on the desk of the kitchen desk in the night- very sad to see.

IndiaA telephone in the room must have been nicer. And the edges of the window could have been more filled as I felt there was gaps along the corners and edges
I like the ambience and the feel of living in old haveli. But, the location was a bit off for me. Staff was good and helping in nature. They also called taxi when uber denied to come at the location. Being there by myself I felt a little bit uncomfortable walking along the lanes of old Ahmedabad. But the hotel was good

lovely place, amazingly decorated, I wish I could have stayed more than one night.I extended a workgroup to Ahmedabad and was glad I discovered this place.

United KingdomThere was a severe language problem with the other main staff member meaning our food/room orders were frequently incorrect which was quite frustrating. The stairs were fine for us but would be almost impossible for anyone with mobility issues.
A lovely, character place in an interesting and central location. Our room had its own terrace overlooking the narrow street lanes and neighbouring Jain temple where we ate breakfast each morning. The main host, Mr Bundi, is a very lovely, kind and helpful person. I would recommend people stay here.
