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.).

Australia1) Very expensive: the tea (cutting chai) offered was not even good and priced at 130 rupees. 2) Buffet: not many options. 3) On checkout: the staff forced us to write feedback in front of them and he was also arguing that we give them the best rating. 4) We earlier had booked for 20th april but later modified to 21st april (confirmed by booking app) but the hotel management said it's only till 20th april and for 21st april, they were charging us 10,000 INR more than what booking app mentioned.
1) Staff were very hospitable: our kid did vomiting twice and they came quickly and cleaned off.

IndiaWe were disappointed to find that the bathrooms were quite small and not as clean as expected, especially considering the reputation of the hotel chain. This aspect could use some improvement for a more comfortable stay.
The location of the place was excellent, complemented by the hardworking and attentive staff. We enjoyed delicious food and their efforts to ensure every guest's comfort were notable. Special mention to Karthik at the travel desk for his exceptional service and helpfulness throughout our stay.

IndiaOther guest creating noise at late night created disturbance while accessing their rooms. Staff should educate them to be sensible enough to take care of other’s comfort as well
Food was good however tables were maximum occupied May be due to festival so staff should see that guests should not wait for table. May be you can increase the seating during festivals

United StatesThe dinner buffet is way overpriced for the quality of food we received. The quality of food was mediocre. We ended up going to a local restaurant for an exceptional dinner the next day for less than half the price. Skip the dinner buffet.

Staff were very friendly. Anumol from housekeeping , Nithin who helped us from the restaurant and billing and Mr.Aftar who has been very friendly and Karthik the guest relations manager who was very patient to take the few feedbacks we gave. We had a wonderful stay at Ooty with friendly people all over the place.!!!

GhanaWe arrived at 6 pm and upon arrival we felt unwelcomed. We did not see any staff smiling seeing us, We felt unwelcomed. We were in one of the privileged suites where bed could be better. The bed was not at all comfortable at all. We stayed for 3 nights out of that we could not sleep properly for 2 nights. On second day when we reported the matter to the front desk we were told they cannot do anything as all beds are same. I was surprised at this response. However on the check out they told us that they will look into that, but we had lost our 2 nights sleeps and developed back pain by then. It took 55 mins and 4 calls for the bellboy to come for the luggage.
The view from the hotel was amazing. Size of the room was good. Breakfast options were amazing. Tea stall, on a roof side where you can get a breath taking view, was cheery on the cake. Play areas for kids were amazing. One indoor and one outdoor. my Kids really enjoyed. We took 3 dinners at the property and the food was very good and more than that the service staff in the restaurant were really amazing. I must mention the lady Tulika, she is exceptional in hospitality.

IndiaThe place is understaffed & run mostly by trainees. Most of them seemed totally lost and some complained to us that they were underpaid and overworked by the management. Dining experience was AWFUL with insufficient servers. The 2 servers for the entire hall were very irritable and did not offer any help, even to provide glasses or drinking water for the table. Food was not refilled on time. Dosa/omelette counter was flooding with people and the chef was incapable of serving anyone. Room service took hours! Dining & room service were very disappointing.
Location is great. Far from the city buzz. Great view.
