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 heat of Maamlapuram but nothing of the resort....Everything was awesome!!!!
The staff were very helpful and friendly. Chow from the swimming pool was very friendly and specially the front desk staff. Fine dining was excellent. Food quality was great and the taste was awesome. The chefs were really caring. Would really suggest people to visit the property and we will surely plan another visit shortly. :))))))

Helpful and Amiable Staff. Good Food and Drinks. Largely clean room and pool. Decent prices. We had gathered for a special event which they made very memorable by providing us a private hall at no extra cost. A team took care of us and were very responsive.

IndiaThe facilities were good, but small things were missing, like shower curtain in a bathroom. The extra mattress that was provided was extremely uncomfortable. We asked for a blanket and only a duvet cover was provided. While I had made an advance payment a day before I checked in (and I have proof of payment made and the same was shared with the reservation staff) I was called up after I checked out asking me to send a screenshot of the advance payment since they seem to not have the details.
Staff were good. Special mention to Devendra.

IrelandThe room cleanliness fell short of expectations, with issues like a slow-draining shower causing a pooling of water. Additionally, the empty soap dispenser and the presence of a dead dragonfly on the Voile curtain were notable disappointments. The manager overseeing high tea appeared overly authoritative, exemplified when we requested an ice cream cone for an elderly family member—only to be denied, being told it was exclusively for kids and required coupons from the reception, which, in turn, stated it was reserved for families with children. The lack of flexibility left us wishing for a nearby ice cream shop to accommodate our elderly mother's request. Despite attempting to express our dissatisfaction to multiple members of the staff and management, we were initially informed that a discussion would occur post-breakfast. However, during check-out, the reservation manager briefly addressed our concerns, assuring us that a follow-up call from the management team would take place. We remain hopeful for this resolution.
The Breakfast service is really good. The Sambar they serve is out of the world. Staff in the dining area are attentive and make sure everyone is taken care of.

IndiaI was billed for stay that was NOT provided. Despite different E mails that the booking was required only for 04 to 06 Aug, booking was done for 09 to 10 Jul. I was also fraudulently billed for a "stay" from 09 to 10 July, that was never made. In the bargain I was defrauded of about Rs 45,000/- . This was despite E mails sent well before 09 Jul ; in fact as early as 06 Jul 23, that I DO NOT require a stay from 09 to 10 July. My family coming from Dubai, were reaching India only on 22 July. I would therefore be much obliged, if the Rs 45,000/- be refunded to me.
