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.).

AustraliaI stayed here after a stay at Bandavargh Aranyak, and as per it, the stay was amazing. Everyone was so nice from the manager to the grounds staff. The staff assisted me with organising safaris. Had an amazing stay and I would highly reccommend! We sam a huge array of wildlife including tigers 😊

IndiaOur room was nice and big but a little away from the central cottages. Some infrastructural development of the propery was going on in that part of the resort.
The ambience was beautiful. It gives you a feel of being one with nature, like a econest with all modern amenities. All the members of the staff are very courteous, gentle, respectful and very very helpful. The best thing was the personal touch. We reached the resort much beyond lunch time but we were served hot and fresh food as soon as we reached. Even they helped us in getting a safari booking in the core zone of Bandhavgarh National Park.

Netherlands-
The location of the resort is very close to the Bandhavgarh national park (all three gates). The staff is very friendly and customer oriented. The buffet style lunch and diner are excellent. The rooms are spacious, clean and besides AC have a private indoor and outdoor shower. When coming back from a tiger safari the staff is awaiting you with a cold fruit juice and a refreshing towel for hands and face. The pool is nice for a refresher. To conclude a nice resort which I can recommend and probably will come back to in the future.

1) Every single staff member was wonderful. Service was beyond exceptional 2) Rooms were large with huge French windows on both sides letting in lots of light. Weather was good enough to keep the windows open. Additional mesh windows so that possible bugs stay out 3) Love that the hotel packs breakfast not just for guests but for the guide and driver too 4) Wet towels and cool drinks await you return from safari. In addition, a staff member checks the jeep to see if you've dropped something 5) Tea, coffee and biscuits after evening safari are a treat!

The resort is amazing and after our 3 night stay we didn’t want to leave! The rooms are set in cottages in beautiful gardens, they are large, very clean with comfy beds and a private outdoor shower. The facilities including the pool and restaurant were also great. Food was delicious and varied and the staff were exceptional. We saw tigers on 2 out of our 3 safaris. Would highly recommend. Thank you to the whole team at Aranyak for making our stay very special.

India1. The food was largely Indian and was good for a few meals but then the heaviness began to tell on us. The few international cuisine dishes prepared were not up to the mark. Maybe the chef could do a short course. 2. I wanted a massage after morning safari but was told there was no masseur available. I found that strange because they have a spa room and it’s mentioned in the facilities so why don’t they have a permanent person? I was told someone would be called from the village but I didnt have any confidence about the person’s expertise.
Warm, friendly and attentive staff who made us feel very comfortable
