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 property could probably invest in a few additional modern amenities like a barbecue, better room heaters, revitalise the menu to and ensure availability of most of the items (although that is more a function of the weather conditions) and maybe a generator (instead of an inverter) as the region is plagued by frequent power disruptions. The staff while being excellent in providing the services requested for can be a bit more proactive (like filling water bottles in rooms) to make the place a 10/10 experience. The access road is extremely busy and encounters huge traffic jams and probably the same can be intimated to the Customers upfront to plan better.
The location of the property is excellent and the staff are nice and cooperative as well. The views from the property itself is mind blowing and is extremely close to the Mukteshwar temple for the religiously inclined which can be accessed through sparingly used mountain trails. The zero point view of Mukteshwar is within a walking by distance of 500 metres. All this without any of the commotion associated with a busy tourist location. The resort staff prepared bonfires for us in bitingly cold and even rainy nights. The food available in the resort, although limited in choice is generally very tasty.

IndiaThe staff could have been more cordial, while Vishal (the manager) was helpful, the other staff members could have been more accommodating, friendly and courteous in their tone.
Loved the location, the room, the aesthetics of the place and the view. It's very close to the Mukteshwar temple, walking distance and their cold coffee is particularly amazing!

IndiaProperty says it's pet friendly but is not really! You have to keep your pet on leash 24x7! It's just that they allow pets inside your room. No fenced play area, no dog food available!

United StatesI booked a 2 bedroom suite, the main room was good but the 2nd bedroom has some kind of weird humid smell that I didn't like. I am not sure if that was the smell from bedding or walls but will be good if property owners can check and take some measures to improve it.
Location was very good, Staff is very nice, polite and always ready to listen and take care. Breakfast is also pretty good.

IndiaPersonally, the only think I thought they must do is proactive house-keeping. All they need to do is ask if the guest wants to do up the bed or wants to room cleaned up. They sure do it on request, just being proactive adds a notch to the experience
Wonderful location, very homely service, great food - three essential ingredients of living can be found in abundance in Shivaya

IndiaShivaya is a peaceful abode to reside if one is visiting Mukhteshwar. It is just a few minutes walk from Chauli ki jali which is apparently the main tourist destination there.The food was great and we were hosted with warmth. The rooms gives you a mudhouse feeling with its rustic decor, giving you a 'pahadi' vibes... Overall it was a wonderful stay.

IndiaOur visit to Shivaya surprisingly became a trip that gets etched in your memory for a long long time. It's not everyday that you walk into a property for a leisure stay and end up making genuine friends with real stimulating conversations. Saurabh and Kriti are such amazing hosts who genuinely care about the experience their guests have at the property. The legacy that the property has and the breathtaking views it offers just makes the experience very wholesome. We walked in as guests and walked out as friends. A shoutout to their momos, hands down the best momos ever!

IndiaBreakfast menu was very limited, should be enlarged. A mesh door may be installed to stop entry of mosquitos etc. Cross ventillation was missing. Quilt was quite loose in cover and ended up being a ball till morning.
Location is just beyond KMVN TRH, very near to bucket list of Mukteshwar - temple, Jaali, IVRI, track to Sitla. Valley view is excellent, breeze is awesome. We went in June month, mornings and Evenings were very cool, noon is hot. anyone who likes vintage property , will like it, others might not. Food is very good. No need to go outside for food
