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.).

United StatesMy only issue was that the wifi was very unreliable, especially in the rooms. Since I can't get a working SIM card in Ladakh as a foreigner, this was a pain for me when I couldn't communicate with people because of weak wifi.
I had a very nice stay at Snow Lion. The room was comfortable and the bed was very cosy at night despite the cold temperatures outside! The staff was so friendly and helpful, even helping me find some local connections for my work. They also cook some delicious buffet meals!

New ZealandEverything - felt like meeting a friend / family kind of feeling.
They were super helpful from the owner Arnab to all staff particularly Anu are extremely helpful for you to adjust to the altitude to arranging local tours etc etc. Food is delicious thanks to Manoj and his able helpers. I don’t think that I would have had this experience without their loving care - awesome!

Truly an exceptional place. Very positive and involved staff members who will help you with anything, which especially since you'll need to acclimatize is really appreciated. Rooms were clean and nice, food is good, and anything from tours to medicine for altitude problems to money exchange can be arranged through the staff.

Snow Lion is the best hotel in the world! I definitely recommend anyone to stay at this beautiful place! I was there for 10 days and I found friends for life and a home. Everyone working there will make you feel at home and easy with their smiles. The rooms are spatious and full of light and the garden is so beautiful. I loved the breakfast and the chai in the morning :)

United StatesI thought it was a wonderful experience staying there. It is an older property, but it is extremely fairly priced and the TLC offered by the staff more than makes up for it.
We were warmly welcomed upon arrival and given such good advice on the area. Each interaction with Arnab and Anu was thoughtful, kind, and sincere. The housekeeping and cooking staff were also wonderful. The room was clean and cozy, as described, a great value for the money. When we returned after a local trip, we were put in an even more comfortable room. This was truly a home base for us in Ladakh. Food was tasty and healthy too.

United KingdomNot a lot.
Friendly, informed staff, particularly Anu who has a great sense of humour and is tireless in seeing to your every need. Great location with about 15 mins walk to town centre. Very flexible dining arrangements with good food. Tours and taxis arranged with fair prices and drivers known to the hotel. Too many positives to write about. Will definitely consider another visit and stay longer to visit some of the places we missed. This is one of those rare places where the hotel is comfortable and fellow travellers are happy to settle into somewhere which is clean and in which the beds are reasonably comfortable. It also affords possibilities to meet like-minded travellers to share the day's experience or arrange to travel together to share costs. If you're a traveller who expects Premier Inn type comfort, it is not for you. I equated it to staying at a friend's large house who has lived there a long time; it is very comfortable and your friend does not see the need to "modernise" it. That is not to say that the owners are indifferent to modernising; they are doing so, but these things take time and resources.
