Each 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

It can be noisy as it is on the corner of main Thamel streets cross. Water can be a gamble if it’s hot or nearly warm at times, usually hot at night while at morning found to be less warm.
Very good value for it’s location in Thamel corner with pretty clean, maintained rooms and breakfast delivered to room door every morning between 8 to 10am time depends on guest count I assume. Thanks.

A little noisy at nighttime but nothing major!
Absolutely loved the location of this hotel! It was perfect for exploring Thamel and surrounding areas within walking distance! It was a lovely big clean room with private bathroom and hot water! Is located in a noisy area like everywhere in Kathmandu so was loud at night but slept very very well considering! Staff & breakfast were wonderful

The hotel is in a narrow place. So dont expect any view.
I loved the Hotel. One of the most value for money hotel in Thamel in my opinion. The staffs were so friendly. They let me stay at the hotel room even after my Check out time as my flight was much later. I highly recommend this.

Very big room for 3 people. Very good value. Nice owner and manager . Booked taxi to and from hotel super easy. Don’t think you can find better place for the same price and location. If i come back to KTM, will definitely stay here again .. Just please note breakfast is served in the room (with a bit miscommunication). You just need to state a time and stay inside the room

The room was very comfortable and big. Comfortable big double bed , table and 2 sofas to enjoy our breakfast, big storage place, hairdryer , slippers , towels. Good shower with hot water. Good breakfast ( in the room between 8:40 - 10 ) and good value for money.We stayed 2 nights here and wanted to book another , but it was sold out. Also very close to our favorite place to eat out - Always Happy Food with so many vegetarian options. Definitely come back here and recommend the place.
