Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

IndiaThe room was hot and warm all the time, due to all the sunlight coming from the large window, but it can be managed with fans and AC in the room.
Staff was very nice and of good help. They made delicious parathas for breakfast 👌 The room was beautiful, colonial style, and had a great view. Everything was clean and the AC worked perfectly.

AustraliaIt is located a distance out of the main town , that’s why it’s peaceful so an auto is needed . Check if there are weddings going on in adjoining resorts if you worry about loud music.
Lovely location by the river, and delicious freshly prepared food. If you stay make sure you eat there. Helpful staff and a great place to relax by the river and do nothing.

BelgiumThis is a hidden gem, located on the banks of the river Betwa. The house is very tastefully decorated and the rooms are spacious and comfy. Although we arrived late, we could enjoy a hearty dinner of dal and rice with some salad and chapatis. The vegetables are organically grown on this 4-acre farm. We highly recommend this place. You can combine a visit to Ochhra with the peaceful environment on the river bank.

United KingdomThe WiFi may not work sometimes, but that is not the fault of the hotel.
The place is a little outside the centre of Orchha and the room itself is very spacious and together with the en-suite, is tastefully decorated. It is also nice to be able to stroll down to the river to walk amongst the rocks and boulders.

Very tranquil spot. Pleasant staff. Also very flexible for changing dates and late check out. Both very much appreciated ☺️ Interior period furniture is also very elegant. And breakfast, although separate, is delicious and on a nice spot outside. Also very kindly made us a fire on the last day evening.

IndiaThe infrequent disturbance of the tranquility by smells and loud music being played in neighbouring properties due to ongoing weddings.
A traditionally appointed, sustainably built kothi located at a placid bend of the Betwa river where you can literally hear and feel nature around you. The rooms are beautifully designed with a heartwarming degree of personalisation and attention to traditional detail, but equally comfortable and modern in amenities such as wifi, and hot water. And to top it all, the staff are are super attentive, the food fabulous and the surroundings, especially the historical town of Orchha are simply unforgettable.

United Arab EmiratesThe location of this homestay (note: it is not a fancy hotel, but a very decent homestay) is fabulous. 5 minutes by car to main tourist places. If available try to get the room that faces the river. Though you can mostly "hear and feel" the river and not see it since some 200 meters away. In the morning, just take a chair and sit on the river bank. You'd be excused to wanting to miss the sightseeing. The team on the ground (led by Manager Jagdish) are very helpful. I had dinner, breakfast, and lunch there; honest, fresh home-made cooking. Last but not least, I was on WhatsApp since before I arrive with the owner himself, who gave a lot of valuable recommendations for Orchha and beyond.

IndiaThe staff need to be better trained and the facilities definitely need to be upgraded. the rooms are very small and quite basic in nature. and the dining room can only accommodate on set of people (as in just 2 or 3 from a group at a time).
We had breakfast and dinner at the property on 2 days and on both occasions the food was good. The staff were helpful when approached and sorted out whatever problems did occur. They even lit bonfires for us for the 2 nights.
