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...).

United KingdomEverything was great.
We enjoyed the clean, spacious room with a great view over the lake. The breakfast, included in the booking charge, was great and an excellent start to the day. All the staff were warm and welcoming, and made us feel very comfortable in our 5 night stay.

United KingdomWe recently had the pleasure of staying at Oolala, and it was a truly wonderful experience. The highlight of our stay was the breathtaking lake view right from our room. Waking up to the serene sight of the water and enjoying the peaceful surroundings made our visit incredibly relaxing. The homemade breakfast was another standout feature. It was freshly prepared with great care, offering a delicious and authentic taste of home-cooked flavors. The hosts Lovely & Jitu were exceptionally warm and welcoming, going above and beyond to ensure our comfort. They were always available to help with recommendations, travel arrangements, and any special requests, making us feel right at home. Overall, Oolala is a perfect retreat for anyone looking for a scenic and peaceful getaway with great hospitality and amazing food. We highly recommend it and would love to visit again!

United KingdomNothing in fact we opted to stay another night.
We received a warm welcome, Lovely has excellent hosting skills she is so super organised and knowledgable providing all the details of where to go in Udaipur so you can plan your stay well. The house was wonderfully quirky colourfully decorated and full of personality. We loved opening our balcony doors for morning coffee overlooking the lake it's a spectacular view. Breakfast was excellent Lovely does the cooking & she served us Indian delights and as much as we wanted, lots of variety and things we had never tried. A lovely homestay to end our trip.

Amazing room with every comfort (best mattress ever) and a stunning lake view, that can be appreciated even more from the common terrace. Lovely is a wonderful, passionate and enthusiastic host, and together with Jitu, they have created something special. Manish is as delightful as the breakfast he prepares (some of the best food we had in India). If we ever have the chance to visit Udaipur again, we will stay at Oolala without a doubt.

United KingdomI usually comment on some improvement but we very really happy with our stay here and would not stay anywhere else if we came back.
This is a really lovely quaint little Homestay where you arrive as a guest and go home as a friend. The owners really could not have been more kind or helpful. The breakfast is amazing whether Indian or European and any wish is immediately granted. We loved: The beautiful views from our window That the room was spotless The pull out clothes line was really handy The mesh on all windows to keep mosquitos out and a repellent just in case. Free tea/coffee/water etc The very comfortable bed with 2 pillows each. The yummy breakfast, wonderful staff and central location. If you can afford it go book this place it’s amazing.

United KingdomNothing, it was perfect.
Awesome and quiet location by the lakeside with a balcony to admire the sunset from. It was January and very chilly in the morning, but a lovely heater was provided to make the room warmer. Cooked breakfast by Lovely was varied and plentiful. Manish was attentive and always so friendly. Jitu helped with transport for day trip and to the airport. There was even a little present at the end of the stay which was a big surprise. Seeing the family take part in the kite flying day was fun.

FranceWe were delighted with this exceptional place. The hosts are incredibly warm and friendly, always eager to make your stay enjoyable. The rooms and the entire property are beautifully decorated, offering a charming and relaxing atmosphere. The breakfast is a real treat, with a variety of Indian and continental options to suit all tastes. Plus, the location is ideal: most of the tourist attractions are within walking distance, making exploring this beautiful city very convenient. We highly recommend Oolala Lake House for an unforgettable stay in Udaipur. You won't be disappointed!" Not to be missed!

AustraliaThis is the perfect place to stay in Udaipur. Lovely and Jitu go out of their way to make you feel at home and give excellent advice and directions for your site seeing. The breakfast they provide each morning is amazing, poha is my new favourite breakfast food! The home is serene and all the locals are so kind and helpful in the neighbourhood. You must also try the street food at the end of the street at chandpole bridge (see picture), you can't tell while it's closed but there is always a big crowd eating there and it is delicious.

United StatesJitu and Lovely were wonderful hosts, always making sure we were content with our stay at their home stay in Udaipur. The White Room has beautiful views of the surrounding river and a nice large bed. The floors are solid marble so the place stays pretty cool at all times, especially in the evening. Fortunately, they did provide sandals to keep our feet off the cold floors and very warm blankets. Their breakfast was wonderful. We opted for the Indian breakfast and were very happy with the quality of the food. Lovely also walked us through great recommendations for what to do in Udaipur. It’s a great place for anyone looking for a well located place with caring hosts.
