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.).

IndiaThe hotel is quite nice. I think the breakfast is really good and the staff takes good care of you. I think it’s a little run down for the price they charge. The spa area really needs an upgrade and could use more frequent cleaning. The rooms as well could use some upgrades, given that they charge a premium price. One night I was woken up at 4am because they had a fault in their fire alarm so that wasn’t pleasant.

IndiaStaff at dining hall treat customers differently based on your nationality. Foreigners got preferential treatment when it came to customer service. Not expected this sort of service from restaurant staff.

United KingdomThe hotel is old, and even thought it is clean, it is old. Moreover, the price is higher than other hotels that are at the same level and with similar services in Kathmandu. Because of that, the value for money is not that much. Also, the swimming pool, looks nice but is in the main garden where weddings and other events take place, so in the practice is very uncomfortable to (try) to swim under everyone else eyes.
I like a lot the staff; they are very friendly and ready to help. The food was also very good. I specially like the restaurants that are linked to the hotel. Moreover, it is important to mention that the hotel is very central, and easy access to the main turist attractions.

Germany- Breakfast service is a bit patchy . Some days you get service and what you want, others simply not. E.g eggs and coffee with a timing that makes sense.. Overall very nice breakfast room.
- Very nice and spacious rooms with all the amenities you need. Good room service. - Quiet! - Big garden - Nice bar - Spa facilities (easy to book and use) - There are shops in the vicinity to buy some things, but you kind of ‚need‘ (15 minute walk) a taxi to get to e.g Thamel

MalaysiaWe stayed during winter (in December) but we didnt understand why the aircond was fixed to a temparature of 24 throughout. It was too warm for us to sleep in. Had to open the windows and requested for a standing fan in the room!
We had lovely breakfasts during our stay at Spices and the staff were incredibly attentive and kind. We also enjoyed the dinner at the other outlet. I would say, service wise was excellent.

United KingdomI wish I had a bigger appetite so I could have tried more of the delicious food on offer!
I decided to stay here for my last night in Nepal on this trip. I've been to Kathmandu many times and was unaware of this hotel until this trip. The history is interesting and the grounds amazing in such a busy city. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The room design was a lovely mix of heritage and modernity - very comfortable. The breakfast definitely had the best choice I've had in Kathmandu. I opted to dine in the Spice Room and was impressed with the menu options. I would have liked to try The Chimney restaurant too, especially for the historical borsch.
