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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

CanadaNothing comes to mind, everything was lovely!
Hotel Dolmaling was such a nice find, we had originally booked a room for two days at the start of our trip but loved our stay so much that we decided to cancel our other hotel reservation and book with them again on our way back! 10/10 stay, the staff was lovely, they have a lovely restaurant on sight as well so you don’t have to leave the location if you don’t want to. However, if you do decide to venture out, the Boudha stupa area is just a short walk away for shopping and sightseeing. The room itself was clean and included a very comfortable bed, a tv, kettle for coffee or tea in the morning along with an AC. The bathrooms were also very clean and included shampoo, conditioner and soap. Our stay was very peaceful, and we loved every minute of it. Thank you to Hotel Dolmaling and their staff for making our stay in Nepal memorable.

This is my 2nd visit to Nepal and fondly remember my first trip my accommodation is a modest Monastery guest house. My stay at Hotel Dolmaling during my 2nd visit to Nepal is wonderful, clean room, cosy bed & modern bathroom. Good breakfast every morning. Location wise is just a short walk to Boudha stupa. You won’t regret staying here😊. Thank you Dolmaling hotel staff🙌🏼

NepalThe room is not entirely soundproof. A lot of echo from guests walking through the corridor disturbed my sleep at times.
The facilities were all very clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. The room I stayed in was in the new section, so everything was functional and well maintained. The restaurant has a varied menu, and the food was good. The location is great, a short walk to the stupa but away from the noise. Many stores and small cafes around the area too.

NetherlandsThe facilities seem outdated, and the carpet in the room seems dirty. Breakfast options are limited. The hotel is hidden in small alleyways so it's difficult for indrive taxi drivers to find. Traffic nearby is always busy, so taxi fees are higher than other parts of the city. The hotel charged me the exchange rate on my day of arrival, instead of real-time rate on the day that I tried to pay. Also, that exchange rate was slightly higher than the actual rate.
The hotel has its own spacious courtyard and temple, which means it's tugged away from the busy city and is very quiet. I finally got a great night of sleep after days in Kathmandu. It also got a nice swimming pool and spacious rooms. Staff are friendly.

IndonesiaNothing.. everything was perfect!
We arrived very early, like 10AM, the reception staff did everything possible to offer us a room as soon as she could. She gave us the WIFI password and we sat in the lovely lobby for about 20 minutes enjoying a cappuccino while they were getting our very large room ready. The picture of the temple is the view from our balcony. The size of the room was impressive, and it was perfect to re-organize our luggage before leaving to Bhutan. We spend the day finding what we needed in the city and had a nice dinner at the hotel, we were up early and they were kind enough to set up the buffet breakfast by 6 AM. We are going back on our last day before going home. Thanks everyone for the nice welcome!

AustraliaCarpets and furniture in the room are a little tired. Bed mattresses a little soft for my liking. The Gompa (Buddhist monastery) inside the hotel grounds isn’t actually used for prayer services; so you’ll have to go for a walk to other Gompas if you want to see some monk action.
Comfortable place with the usual western facilities, bedding, bathrooms and cleanliness required by upmarket western tourists. Price on Booking.com was fair IMO. Staff were very helpful, nice and friendly. Lady at reception was exceptionally helpful. Very quiet room. Nice air-con. Not far from the sights. Do a very nice Banana Smoothie at the poolside bar. Nice to walk past the Buddhist Gompa all the time. Tucked away from the hustle-bustle. I would be happy to stay there again.
