How guest reviews work
Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. 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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Verified reviewThe nature ambience around the property was amazing. Although it’s a village concept, but the stay was outstanding & extraordinary. Tea kadai & Annaprasana restaurant gives you the Kumbakonam native feelings. Drivayam (lunch vege banana leaf) was extraordinary. The entire staff of Mantrakoodam was very nice, helpful and friendly. Recommended for a nice family trip… 👍

Verified reviewEvery element of the stay was beyond expectations - the soothing impact pervades every part of the property. The staff are extremely friendly and warm with a positive vibe at all times. A two day stay was the right duration as well to experience all aspects - the tea kadai with the ever smiling lady making tea and tasty snacks, feeding fishes, the spiritual ambience at the two main temples within the campus and the smiling staff at the restaurant. Special call out to Ranjith and Selvakavi at the restaurant. Thank you very very much. Last but not the least - unbelievable company of peacocks :). Thank you once again. We will be back.

Verified reviewOur recent stay at Mantra Koodam was memorable and serene. The resort is truly wonderful — beautifully maintained, peaceful, and an ideal retreat. The facilities are excellent, and the commitment to a plastic-free environment is commendable. We also appreciated the thoughtful in-room touches such as herbal body wash and shampoo, which reflect the eco-friendly philosophy of the property.
There are some areas where we feel improvements could make the experience even better: 1. Customer Service Responsiveness: While some staff members were outstanding — in particular, Naturist Karthik and Guru from the restaurant — the overall responsiveness could be improved. Requests such as drinking water or buggy service often took a long time to be addressed. Some staff could benefit from further training in hospitality industry etiquette and proactive guest service. 2. Breakfast Service Timeliness: Breakfast is advertised to start at 7:30 am, but on multiple days certain items were not ready until close to 8:00 am. As many guests stay here for temple visits and need to leave early in the morning, timely availability of breakfast would be greatly appreciated.
Namaskaram Kaitharam, Thank you for sharing your detailed review of your stay at Mantra Koodam. We are delighted to hear that you found the resort to be wonderfully maintained and enjoyed the serene environment. Your appreciation for our eco-friendly practices and in-room touches is truly encouraging. We sincerely apologize for the areas where we fell short. Your feedback on the responsiveness of our customer service is invaluable, and we will certainly address this with our team to ensure a more seamless experience. Recognizing the importance of timely service, especially with breakfast, we are taking steps to ensure all items are prepared on schedule for our guests' convenience. Your kind words about Naturist Karthik and Guru are appreciated, and we will pass on your compliments to them. Thank you once again for your valuable feedback, which helps us in our efforts to continuously improve. We look forward to welcoming you back for an even more enhanced experience soon.

Verified reviewOnly the location was very remote, away from any road or landmark and almost 12 km away from Kumbakonam. So if you do not have a car all the time at your disposal, you are confined inside the resort gates only. Rest everything is excellent.
