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.).

GermanyMissing some furniture in the rooms. On the pictures where chairs and table, but unfortunatley it was empty with just a bed. Some of the appliances were starting to fall apart. But thats all just normal. Otherwise it was a great stay.
Super friendly hosts. Just the most amazing people. Helpful in every possible way. Great breakfast. Best location to walk the ghats from start to finish. Good sized rooms.

AustriaNaveen and Krishna are running a very nice guest house right around the corner of Assi Ghat. I had a very nice and warm welcome, also they help with whatever one needs. The decoration of the place is also very nice and the roof top terrasse is wonderful. I’m really looking forward to coming back to that place.

Right in the heart of the city center, next to Assi Ghat. The hosts are amazing people ! Very nice and friendly they do everything to make you feel at home. The hostel space is quite nice ! Very nice decoration and environment! Rooms are spacious, nice and clean ! Very nice bathroom with a very nice hot shower! Rooftop is also very nice to rest & relax and have a good time ! Breakfast is very good too with an amazing massala chai (tea) that everyone wants to repeat !

United KingdomWe had a few interesting moments trying to adjust and operate the shower!
I stayed with my almost 4 year old daughter for 3 nights in the triple room. Room was great, super clean and I loved the balcony with a cold beer. Breakfast and chai on the rooftop was nice. Great laundry service. The highlight was definitely the lovely staff who couldn’t do enough for us.

IndiaBreakfast was basic but there are enough options for breakfast afterall it's Banaras :) Chai was good!
It's perfectly located 5 mins walk from Assi Ghat. Our room was clean, good in size and well ventilated which was a big plus. Bathroom is a bit small which didn't bother us. Naveen and Krishna bhaiya are kind and were always ready to give local tips. Art done on the walls of guest house are superb and gives a great vibe to the whole place. We loved our stay at Banaras Guest House and would be happy to recommend.
