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...).

New ZealandLovely clean rooms with comfortable beds! The balconies are great. I will have stayed here three times by the time I leave nepal. The staff are really nice and there is a free luggage and valuables storage option if you go trekking or on a short trip elsewhere. Nice coffee and tea downstairs too. Great location near everything you need in thamel but still in a quieter street. Thank you so much and see you again soon!!

All staff were so friendly and helpful. They are very caring for their guests, and they looked after me very well, always making sure I was okay or asking if I need anything. It feels very personable, like a small family there, and they want to make you feel like home. They have a free-pick up service from the airport which is also very helpful, especially when you are tired from travel it makes things nice and easy and they give you a warm welcome to Nepal. Kind staff member called Naveen was great, he helped me with weighing my luggage when I was packing to go home, and he would always ask or offer help with anything. All the staff in general were just super friendly and welcoming. The location is good, its close by to many restaurants and shops but on a quiet corner so its not noisy.

GermanyThe Location of the Hotel is very central in Tamel. You can reach a lot of playes by walk & are in the middle of the life of Kathmandu as soon when you step out the hotel door. The owner is a very nice person to talk with, I had a very pleasant stay of 2 days!

I had a lovely room. The next day I wanted to go to Pokhara. The hotel organised my trip to Pokhara ......... I was only there for two nights. They organised my trip back 2 days later. When I came back I asked for a room with a balcony .... thought they might charge me more—no same rate. There are excellent restaurants around and if you are a shopaholic it is the place to stay. Thamel, Karma Hotel is situated in this area. Could have chosen a better area. Thank you Karma Hotel staff. Lovely fresh coffee available all day. Love it

United Arab Emiratesthere is no elevator here, so you have to make your way up the stairs and a huge gate covers the entrance and closes at 11pm. The security guy has to let you in.
the staff are great at arranging services like taxi's and tours in the area. The hotel is close to the old town and new town markets and there are plenty of shops and resturants around the hotlel. \the hotel itself is a boutique hotel with 5 or so rooms per floor and there a an open seating area on each floor where you can chill out and the rooms have air conditioning
