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.).

Hotel Kiyara exceeded all my expectations during my recent stay in Amritsar. Its proximity to the Golden Temple is unbeatable, making it a perfect choice for anyone visiting this iconic landmark. The host's warm hospitality was one of the highlights of my stay. They went out of their way to ensure my comfort and were always ready to assist with any inquiries or requests. Their kindness and attentiveness truly made me feel at home. In today's connected world, a reliable Wi-Fi connection is essential, and Hotel Kiyara delivered on this front. I had no issues staying connected, which was crucial for both work and leisure. Now, let's talk about the food – it was simply fantastic! The hotel's restaurant served mouthwatering dishes that showcased the rich flavors of Punjabi cuisine. From traditional curries to delectable desserts, every meal was a delight. In conclusion, Hotel Kiyara is a top-notch choice for your stay in Amritsar. Its unbeatable location, kind host, excellent Wi-Fi, and delicious food make it a standout option. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable experience near the Golden Temple.

Our recent stay at Hotel Kiyara exceeded all expectations and made our visit to the cave temple truly memorable. One of the standout features of this hotel was their complimentary transport service to the cave temple. This thoughtful gesture saved us time and effort and allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience. Communication was a breeze at Hotel Kiyara, as the staff spoke excellent English. This made everything from check-in to ordering meals seamless and stress-free. The comfortable bed in our room was a welcome respite after a long day of exploring. It provided a great night's sleep, ensuring we were well-rested for our adventures. The kindness of the staff was remarkable. They went above and beyond to ensure our needs were met, making us feel genuinely cared for during our stay. The cleanliness of the rooms was impeccable, and this attention to detail did not go unnoticed. It added an extra layer of comfort to our stay. Overall, our experience at Hotel Kiyara was exceptional, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to fellow travelers. The combination of free transport, English-speaking staff, comfortable accommodations, and a warm and kind-hearted team make this hotel a top choice for anyone visiting the area. Five stars, without a doubt!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Kiyara during my visit to the nearby cave temple, and it was a delightful experience. The hotel's location is truly a standout feature. It's conveniently close to the cave temple, making it extremely convenient for visitors looking to explore this historical site without long commutes. The food at the hotel's restaurant was a pleasant surprise. The menu offered a variety of dishes, and the quality was consistently good. It's evident that the chefs take pride in their culinary creations. The hospitality of the host and the hotel staff was warm and welcoming. They were always ready to assist with any queries or requests, which added to the overall comfort of the stay. Lastly, for travelers like me who rely on a stable internet connection, the hotel's WiFi was reliable and fast. This made it easy to stay connected and plan the next day's adventures. While I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Hotel Kiyara, I'm giving it four stars instead of five simply because there's always room for improvement. However, I would happily recommend this hotel to fellow travelers looking for a comfortable and convenient base near the cave temple.
