Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

IndiaLocation and proximity to Mahadev darshan gate. Close the owner, he was quite warm and accommodative.
Although the location of the property is fantastic, but to reach the facility on foot for good 900 meters was a bummer. I was traveling with my old parents and they really struggled to reach the guest house. Again the location, room, staff and owner everyone one is welcoming but if you are traveling with old people, or people who don't like to trek and travel on foot, it will be a spoiler.

United States of AmericaOne needs to walk through the narrow alley/streets for about 15 minutes to get to the property from the parking lot. We arranged a porter with the guesthouse and it was not a problem for us, but it might be for some people.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. View from the balcony is exceptional and guesthouse is very close to the river.

IndiaThe location is exceptional. You can have a good view of the mighty ganges from the room balcony. Not all room types offer this view so be sure while making the booking. Since the hotel is situated right at the ghat, it is far from the main road and requires a walk of around 15 minutes to reach from the main road. The hotel will help you in carrying your luggage from the main road till hotel and back. But the positive point is that many of the major temples are around the hotel including Kashi Vishwanath, which is also very close. Since it is at ghat, you can just get down the hotel and reach the ghat and book boat rides from there or have a bath in the Holy Ganges. We were a family of 5 including a toddler and required special services like toddler food and milk, which was taken care by the hotel v.well. Mr. Kushagra is the caretaker here and he goes out of the way to help every guest. We have had many other incidences where he helped us during our 3 days stay. The food served at the hotel was delicious, hygenic and healthy including breakfast and dinner. Overall, it was a great stay and experience for us.

IndiaCharges are too high for the property compared to the deliverables. Booking.com must review the properties before listing. We had to walk a lot to reach the place; we felt cheated for the cost we paid.
