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 StatesStaffs at hotel lake shore is reason that my stay and experience has been exceptional. The manager Sanjog is the man!!! From the booking till leaving, staff is always there to help you out, on food recommendations , tour booking recommendation (could use some comparison from street), and bus ticket booking. Location is closed to tourist bus park which helps lot if you are taking the bus. it’s a bit of walk to lakeside if you want to relax at some restaurants and drinks where locals go to for sunset and pictures. The only little thing(personal preference) I would recommend to change is probably the towels, and breakfast selection (still great!) can be updated or be more flexible on items.

AustraliaI had an amazing experience at this hotel, thanks to Sanajog, the Operations Manager. He worked tirelessly, always going the extra mile, and made the stay awesome. His friendly and outgoing nature created such a welcoming atmosphere.What stood out most was how quickly he responded to requests, always ensuring everything was taken care of immediately. The hotel offers great value for money, and the breakfast was delicious. Sanajog also organized the bus journey from Pokhara to Kathmandu, which was convenient. He also dropped me off at the tourist bus stop. The staff here are equally helpful and accommodating. The location is perfect—just 5-10 minutes from the main area, within walking distance, but still away from the noise. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable and well-run place to stay!

The manager & staffs are amazing. Manager Sanjog arranges all activities along side being highly involved in everything u need in hotel. He provided free airport pick up. He upgraded our room with same price. Even he goes way out of his line to help guests. When we missed an activities bus he dropped us by himself. He is an amazing person. & the receptionist Rupa is extremely helpful. Will come back again.

It was a great stay. The property was exactly as it was showcased in the listing. The rooms were really spacious and had a view to the initial part of the lake as well. The location was convenient as well. More than most, the staff was amazing. So courteous and welcoming and helping with every aspect. Mr. Sanjog (operations manager) was really helpful and took care of everything. The lady at the reception (Ms. Rupa) was also extremely polite and helpful. Super staff.

United StatesFor a traveler on a medium budget this property is a great value- however, being a westerner I would have liked a more posh bathroom lol…. But I am nitpicking
The property was in a great location just off the Main Street. Clean common areas and a staff with attention to detail. Operations manager Sanjog was wonderful, offering great suggestions and help only a local could. His staff from the top down was wonderful.
