Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

HungaryThe hotel is by the lake, it has a very relaxing atmosphere, nature is really close. It is an affordable great alternative of the Houseboats. The hotel staff was really helpfull in everything: booked the airport transfer, the sightseeings, even organized to have my laundry done. Food is available and delicious. I really recommend this hotel.

United KingdomOn my last day, I felt really pressured to leave a review and to tip. I don’t mind being asked once but several times, lead me to leave feeling quite frustrated. I would also have appreciated more transparency about meal and boat prices- a price list would be nice.
I had a lovely experience on this houseboat. It’s very well maintained and the beds are very comfortable. It’s on a peaceful lotus lake and I loved listening to the birds and practicing yoga on the deck to the sunset. The family are lovely and could not do more. The food is delicious and prices are reasonable and beautiful Kashmiri tea served all day. Highly recommend.

IndiaOne of the rooms had lood bed and creaked on changing posture. But they changed my room.
Cleaneliness and behaviour. My first concern in any hotel is cleanliness. this hotel has very clean toilet and bed. The front rooms feel lively and open. One more best aspect is availability of warm water in all taps and faucets

United StatesBreakfast is not included though it was very inexpensive. No electric kettle in room so you couldn't enjoy coffee on the terrace for the sunrise.
I only booked one night as I was hoping to find a houseboat for the following days. I did find a houseboat but had I not I would have gladly stayed longer. It was sublimely quiet and loved the lake setting. Great value, I would stay again.

AustraliaThe only thing would be a fan in the bathroom, that would help with the humidity inside. The room fan worked very well and with the doors open it was a quick airing out.
We really enjoyed our stay at Chachoo Palace. It is exactly as described and in the pictures, a simply but comfortable place to unwind by the backwaters of Dal Lake. The whole place was very clean and well looked after and the owner & staff very friendly and supportive the whole way through. We stayed 3 nights and enjoyed a delicious breakfast every morning and the creamy Kawa tea on the balcony in the beautiful morning light that was shining through the leafy trees around. It's quickly accessible via Tuk Tuk or even Shikara and a 5-15 min ride gets you to most of the main attractions. It's a fantastic place to leave the sounds of the city behind for a little bit and just kick back and unwind from the excitements around. Would 100% recommend and stay again.

I like the location and hospitality of the palace. It is situated near the Dal lake and the view is amazing. As a vegetarian I got a pure veg restaurant in front of the hotel. And the rooms are very clean and hygienic.

SingaporeThe building and amenities are quite old and basic. The hotel overlooks the lake, but it's kind of on the back side of the lake so you don't get any view at all (it's blocked by plants).
Good service and location. Rooms are spacious. My room was quiet enough. There was food and water if you needed it, at a fee, and the menu was quite western. I like that there's outdoor and semi-outdoor seating.
