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 StatesLiked every aspect of this boutique place.
The staff was the best thing about this hotel. I also liked that it was small and boutique-feeling. Can't get a better location. Central to everything and in the fun part of city and yet on a quiet side-street. Can't do better than this location of you want to be in Thamel area.

United StatesWe had just arrived into Kathmandu from a brief visit from India in which we had fell ill. Immediately upon arriving, the hotel and level of service was a welcoming relief. Mr. Dol Prasad Amgai and his team assisted us in every way imaginable to get us as functioning humans again. This included assisting in identifying where to obtain medications, having special dietary items available to eat, coordinating transportations, late checkout, luggage storage, providing city information, and more. Beyond the personalized services they provided, the hotel itself is perfectly located in the Thamel district convenient to all the activities yet off on a quiet side street. The decor, cleanliness and amenities were outstanding. Without question I would highly recommend staying at the Kailash Boutique Hotel again. Fortunately for us, we will be doing so on the back end of our two week visit through Nepal.

New CaledoniaWe recently had the pleasure of staying at KAILASH BOUTIQUE HOTEL in Thamel, Kathmandu, a true gem nestled in a vibrant location. From the clean, comfortable rooms to the exquisite cuisine (better than the local restaurants we visited!), every aspect of our stay was designed for relaxation and delight. However, what truly set our experience apart was the extraordinary presence of the manager, Dol. From the moment we arrived, Dol exuded warmth, kindness, and an unmistakable passion for hospitality. With decades of experience as a trekking guide, his vast knowledge and resourcefulness was evident in every interaction. His mastery of professionalism, practicality, good sense and great humour is rare even in 5-star deluxe hotel managers. There are many excellent hotel managers out there, but Dol goes above and beyond what can be learned. He welcomed us not merely as guests, but as friends, and he made us feel like our comfort and well-being were among his highest priorities. His genuine care helped make our our stay a memorable journey of discovery and delight. Dol's wisdom and generous spirit provided not only exceptional service but also an inspiring reminder of the beauty of human connection. The glowing reviews found on this and other popular travel sites are no coincidence, yet they hardly capture the depth of his wonderful character and the positive impact he has on his guests. In every way imaginable, Dol and KAILASH BOUTIQUE HOTEL exemplify the pinnacle of hospitality. Our experience here was a masterclass in excellence, and we depart with memories that will be cherished for a lifetime. We wholeheartedly recommend KAILASH BOUTIQUE HOTEL to anyone seeking an unforgettable escape, and we extend our deepest gratitude to Dol for making our stay not just enjoyable, but profoundly moving. Thank you once again, Dol, with the fulness of our hearts.

SwitzerlandFrom the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcomed. The staff was exceptionally friendly, always greeting us with warm smiles and making sure we were comfortable. The hotel rooms were fantastic—well-heated, with plenty of warm water, and the beds were so cosy that we slept like babies. The breakfast each morning was delicious, with a great selection of food, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. We were especially lucky to have Dol, the hotel manager, assist us with our trip. Since we arrived without a set itinerary, he took the time to plan an incredible 10-day journey for us, filled with amazing experiences and hidden gems we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. His recommendations and organization made our trip truly unforgettable. We can’t thank him enough for his kindness and hospitality. If you’re looking for a place that offers both comfort and outstanding service, this hotel is absolutely the perfect choice! We would highly recommend it and will definitely return in the future.

Kailash is located on a quieter street (no traffic noise) in Central Thamel, 15-20 minute walk to the Square. Surrounded by lots of varied restaurants, shops, and spas. The rooms are very modern and well-equipped with a refrigerator. Breakfast is substantial and varies daily. A high point are the incredibly gracious staff, who go out of their way to help, especially Rasmile and Dol. we enjoyed staying so much, we are returning at the end of our trip to Nepal. You'd be hard pressed to find a better deal in KTM--and they pick you up at the airport for free.
