Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

NetherlandsThey didn't serve the tasty banana pancakes every day.
The rooms are beautifully furnished. The beds are comfy. The owner is very thoughtful. They wanted me to be safe as a solo traveler, so they checked on me when I was still out in the middle of the night. Outstanding.

IndiaI had a very pleasant stay. The room was comfortable, I always use a desk, wardrobe and a kettle so it was great and helpful to have those. I stayed at other places that didn't have these, and so I missed not staying there longer. Staff was very kind and helpful. I will definitively recommend this place. Other guests staying at the property were very nice and there was a great vibe at the place. Loved the terrace and bhaktapur area. Thank you for everything!

United KingdomThe hotel is very central, just behind Durbar square and you can walk to the many places of interest. The hotel and the room are very very clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They kindly moved me to a bigger room as I needed more space for yoga. There is also a nice terrace where breakfast is served. Will definitely stay again.

United KingdomRoom was damp even with the electric heater that we paid 500 rupees for per night. Bathroom was cold and damp too. Unfortunately there was also no housekeeping meaning we only got one bottle of water, one toilet roll and no change of bins bags during our stay.
Comfy bed. Hottest shower we’ve had in Nepal but does take a bit of fiddling to get it to the right temperature. The breakfast was lovely and the staff were very kind. Very strong WiFi compared to other places we have stayed in Nepal. Our laundry was also done in around 10 hours for 200 rupees per KG.

GermanyThe people at Vintage Home are open, friendly and helpful, while the location is in the middle of Bhaktapur indeed, literally around the corner of the famous places like Durbar Square. Although only offering (but delicious) breakfast, there are sufficient places around to get nice lunch and dinner next door. Definite recommendation.
