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.).

I really enjoyed my stay. I had the budget room which is simple but clean and comfortable. The location is great as it is on a little island but close to town. You always get free rides to the mainland. Best part is the hospitality and friendliness of the owner. I was greeted with chai and had great conversations about Kashmiri culture and life

IndiaIf Electricity supply was more regular it would have been good but then that is not in control of Farooq bhai. Inspite of that he made hot water available for bath.
The owner Farooq bhai took personal care to ensure our comfort during our stay. If there was no hot water he ensured its availability by burning logs since electricity supply was not there sometimes. He checked that the quality of food was as per liking. He also shared with us the places we should visit besides the standard Pahalgam and Gulmarg. He made us feel at home. Also the WIFI is very good at this house boat.

United KingdomBreakfast choice is limited, and bucket bathing only in basic room
I extended my stay here to a week as I enjoyed the place and location. There was no issue or charge getting to shore anytime, with three boats. Farooq is a kind soul, and an entrepreneur. The prices for hiking etc he sorted were fair. The set up of my basic room was modest, as is the cooking. Greenview worked for me though :)

AustraliaAt night it was quite cold, being on the lake (it began snowing the next morning). However the hosts did everything they could to ensure I was comfortable with a heater and very warm electric blanket.
Staying on a houseboat on Dal Lake was a very special experience. There is something very calming and peaceful about being surrounded by water. The nearby view of the snow-capped mountains was absolutely breathtaking. Picturesque and beautiful. Very welcoming hosts. Comfortable room. Good food. Bottled water readily available because the owners regularly host foreign visitors. They speak English well (particularly Faizan who speaks English fluently). This is helpful for many foreign visitors to communicate for anything they might need as well as to gain insight into Kashmiri life.

IndiaRates are decent and justified to the services provided. Had a very comfortable and homely stay. Farooq bhai is a down-to-earth pious man who humbly runs the boathouse. It was a lovely 3-day stay with other inmates. The common hall is warm and comfortable at all times. The prompt services of Ramzan, the helping hand at the boathouse is a great benefit. All my work - from arranging my cab for pickup and drop to airport, arrangement of all my cab travels in Kashmir, helping me buy genuine Kashmiri clothes, perfumes and stuff right at the boathouse, was arranged by Farooq bhai. One thing i must surely add is that here anyone if any religion can stay comfortably for there is absolutely no barrier of any kind. Surely, whenever i come i will choose this
