Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Just little more clean.
The location is great if you have work or if you have train to catch in Paltan bazar. Those who are first timer and type Paltan police station and it will take only 5-10 minutes walk and you are near the train station. The staff were friendly and helpful.

The washrooms and showers need updating. The sink is really disgusting and the fact that pots are being washed and dirty floor water emptied in the same place you are brushing your teeth and washing hands/face etc isn't pleasant. The showers need to be cleaned better as there are leftover shampoo packets and razorblades left in the big room. It also isn't so private for females (I know you are working to change this!). Please also consider adding more hooks and a mirror in the dorm rooms. It would also be good to have toilet paper, although this seems to not be available in any hotel/hostel in the north east for some reason. There are no lockers available so you need to carry all valuables with you. If you aren't sharing with a stranger you could put a padlock on the door to the room though. I know the bathrooms are on the list for updating by the management so this will improve the overall feel hugely.
The staff here go above and beyond to help and this is what really makes this place great. Rex spent ages helping me plan my whole trip round the North East and Singthoi let me wash my clothes and as I only had a few hours before my bus, even made me a make-shift drying room - this was hugely appreciated! Thank you! The location is brilliant in terms of travel connections and a large supermarket/clothes store very close by which was useful! It is a walkable distance to the riverfront where you can visit the temples/gardens etc. Dorms are very clean and bedding is fresh. There is a common area with tables and chairs where you can sit and eat This hostel has huge potential to be a great! (It's relatively new and also under new management) they are open to constructive feedback to help them improve. Please don't be put off by the negatives I have written below as my stay was lovely and I even went back to stay a second time!

There is nothing about Travellers Hostel that I don't like. One recommendation though, they should add water heating system available in the hostel for winters.
I wholeheartedly recommend Travellers Hostel in Guwahati! Here's why: 1. *Ideal location*: Perfectly situated for easy access. 2. *Budget-friendly*: A welcome relief from the overpriced guesthouses in Paltan Bazar, making it an excellent choice for students and budget travelers. 3. *Exceptional hospitality*: The hosts, Mr. Gagan Das and Udit Das, are incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful. They went above and beyond, waiting for my late-night arrival and assisting with my luggage. 4. *Cleanliness*: The bed linen and bathroom were impeccably clean. 5. *Thoughtful touches*: As a Buddhist, I appreciated the beautiful 8 auspicious symbols curtain on the door. I wish Travellers Hostel continued success and hope they maintain their excellent standards. Highly recommended!
