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.).

IndiaWhile checking in, they were searching for my booking. I believe there was no intimation to hotel even though I showed booking.com voucher. Took a long time to allocate us a room. The room was similar to one booked, but was not cleaned properly. The bathroom drainage was not working and the water was stagnant. Had to call house keeping to rectify this. Toiletries were not kept. Coffee powder and sugar was missing. These things we take for granted were missing. For each, need to call housekeeping. Had to wait for a long time to receive dinner after ordering - in room dining. The quantity of food was very less and not value for the price. Taste could have been better.
Breakfast had a whole lot of desi and International favourites. The live dosa/pancakae/poratta/omlete counter was the highlight. The food was tasty. The ambience was uplifting and staff were also good. Room and bathroom were relatively spacious with adequate infrastructure.

IndiaThat said, the room was quite small, and there was a foul smell in the toilet. Additionally, the A/C duct was quite noisy, which could be improved. However, the bed was like sleeping in the clouds—neat, comfortable, and very well made.
Review for Essentia Premier Hotel Chennai OMR I had a wonderful stay at Essentia Premier Hotel Chennai OMR. The staff was incredibly helpful and courteous, making my experience seamless from check-in to check-out. I arrived around midnight, and the team swiftly allotted my room without any hassle. The next day, I had a meeting and requested a late checkout by an hour, and they gladly accommodated my request. A special thanks to Urvashi and Edwin for their exceptional hospitality!

AustraliaOur room was facing right in front of the main road and was noisy but if you’re ok with this, like me, Then, you will have a good chance of seeing the hustle and bustle of the people’s lifestyle in this part of Chennai. Which clearly was not an issue for me, but if you are looking for quiet spot then request one, you might get a room further away from the street.
Staff were friendly and behaved professionally when I interacted with them via bookings.com. They were kind enough to allow me to extend my stay a few hours late, on the day of my checkout, since mt flight was later at the night. Food ordered were quickly dispatched and staff at the restaurant were super friendly. Especially a lovely girl called Annen. Front office Sakthi and Manish and the manager were helpful too.

IndiaHousekeeping they do not fill the room ammenities properly, we need to call the support team for that. I don't know, it is whose mistake, maybe Hotel Management they instruct the house keeping for cost cutting.
The staff support was great, very nice breakfast. Room cleanliness and facilities are equal to 4 Star category, they have a very good restaurant "Fishermans warf" breakfast is served there, lunch dinner available but its pretty costly, other options around the Hotel aslso available. If you have business in WTC + 10 KMS around, this hotel is a very good choice.
