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.).

JapanDuring my visit, it was a very hot day, so the A/C didn't work very well. The A/C was set to 16°C and the cold air was blowing directly onto the bed, so only my face was very cold, which was uncomfortable.
location is good, very close to Taj mahal and main street. Rooms value for money

IndiaWashroom isn’t near and clean and there’s no dustbin there and sheets and pillow covers weren’t very clean. The lock for the washroom wasn’t working.
It is very close to Taj Mahal, it’s walking distance from it and pretty close to main road. Finding a transport is not a problem at all. Staff is very helpful and food is fine. They have 24*7 check-in which is great as we reached there at 1am and they had their reception open. It was safe too.

United KingdomThe rooms are, like all Indian hotels, not "European standard" (but in the top quartile of what we've experienced in the country), and remember, neither are the prices. They're large, decent and acceptable though.
The staff are great. The owner is very concerned for his guests, very helpful and has a great vision of what the hotel will become. If we go back to Agra we will stay there again. The peaceful courtyard has massive potential to become a really nice place to unwind at the end of the day or just meet the morning.

United Kingdom1. It is an impressive entrance to the hotel area, but my room sadly didn't live up to my first impression. My room was in serious need of a refurbishment and the furniture could do with replacing / upgrading as it was quite old. It was also an old style padlock and key on the door rather than an actual lock or key card 2. Room was dirty in places, esp around the windows and plug sockets and not much care has been taken when the walls were last painted, as there is a lot of paint over the wall hangings 3. My room was directly outside the restaurant seating area and with the walls being quite thin, it was quite noisy
1. Literally only a 4 minute walk from the West Gate entrance to the Taj Mahal 2. Very good WiFi speed 3. Nice restaurant garden and the food was good 4. Decent size bed 5. Hot water 6. Staff were accomodating 7. Reception accommodated a later check out time, subject to a half daily rate charge

The uncle of the owner kept me company during dinner, which was really nice. The owner even saw me off even though I left very early. Would recommend and hope to stay here again as I loved Agra.

United StatesThe area around the hotel is slums. Lots of touts and hustlers right outside the entrance to the hotel. I got food poisoning from the hotel restaurant which cost me a day of sightseeing. I was up all night vomiting and in bed all of the next day recovering. Owner still charged me for the food. I would recommend eating at Joney’s cafe which is a 3 minute walk from the hotel. Then you will have no stomach problems. The hotel restaurant has tables set up right outside the door to your room and it gets noisy since there is no soundproofing in the rooms. You can hear your neighbors talking in the next room. If you want to go to the Taj at sunrise, this is a good place to stay. Otherwise, I would choose a nicer hotel a little further away. If you stay here, bring your earplugs. You will need them.
Located a 5 minute walk from the Taj Mahal West entrance gate. The location is the best thing about the property. Owner is friendly and speaks good English. They have a nice courtyard outside of the rooms which gives a feeling of peace in an otherwise chaotic area.

United KingdomStaff were really obliging and helpful. We had only stayed one night in order to visit the Taj Mahal, which was less than five minutes walk away. We weren't under any pressure to check out by 12 and were able to leave our bags safely in the lobby for a few hours after that. Fairly basic, but we were provided with a kettle when we asked, and most importantly, the sheets were clean and fresh.
