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...).

IndiaPricey for the facilities, there was nothing apart from the room & breakfast. The breakfast place is not easily accessible, people have to climb 2 floors to get there. This may be okay for most, but a big concern for elders/ pregnant ladies. The breakfast spread remained pretty much the same, could have been better.
I stayed at this place for 4 days and found the room to be neat & clean, but not enough ventilation though. It's the best place to stay during year-end, closer to white town, a happening place with a lot of cafes/ eateries around. The other best part is the staff, they were really helpful and welcoming.

IndiaThe housekeeping staff went into our room in our absence without informing or asking. One pair of earrings is missing. Moreover, since they came unexpectedly, we had not cleared our things. All our personal effects were out, bags were open. The staff came to clean hence, our stuff was touched without consent.
The location was great and the breakfast was nice.

IndiaVery minimal maintenance. Window Curtains were missing, Flush was not working, Fan does not have a regulator, Bathroom is not clean Also, do not book the Deluxe category as they do not open the balcony due to some regulation
Its a very basic hotel. If you are travelling on a week day, its ok as the rate is aroud 2000. For a weekend travel rate shoots up and the facility they provide is not worth it

IndiaThe location is good, staff is also helpful. But the rooms are quite old, cleanliness is average too. My son is 11yrs but still they charged extra even though it was not mentioned while booking. Breakfast is also very basic not worth of spending Rs 3500 for one night.

Indiaproblem with payment. keeps rejecting cards and Treebo wants another way to pay. it is a problem between booking.com and partnerships with hotels and their payment systems. no reservation possible even when it claims on site. Same day part-payment required by Treebo which was against the info made available through book.com pillows were not firm. did not give additional pillows. did not provide proper blanket for the extra bed. quite dull decor and some furniture require repaint leaking western toilet no hand wash liquid and toilet tissues. did not refill shower gel at first instant. no room service the second day door slamming many times even after 10pm the address on google maps did not match with the address they have on the hotel parking on side road. it was manageable. 1 hour small window for breakfast no way a claimed 3-star hotel :(

IndiaThere are rooms in this hotel which have NO ventilation, no window in the room, no balcony on the floor. Unfortunately, we were put in such a room (no 103) in which it is impossible to tell whether it is day or night as no natural light can enter the room! In fact, it is unhealthy and risky to put up guests in such rooms. This was a major issue and did not expect from the hotel reviews. It was a shock, never had such an experience in any hotel in my life.
Location was good.
