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...).

SwedenACs - On the very first day, AC in one of our rooms broke down and started leaking. However hotel was quick on action & they shifted us to other room & repaired the AC. No swimming pool :(
Location - This hotel is in Thamel market which is a great location. It is very close to all the touristic destinations. Breakfast - They have decent options available for breakfast Dinner - We were at this hotel with my parents & the food here was amazing - just like home-cooked meals. They prepare the food fresh & serve hot. We ended up eating at the hotel every evening. Room - rooms sizes are big enough to accomodate 3 people easily. They have ACs & decent bathrooms Hotel staff was very nice & helping . They listened to us and acted promptly to make our stay as comfortable as possible. They also helped us with the transportation and plan up our itinerary for 3/4 days while we were there.

United StatesSamsara hotel Kitchen, Concierge and Receptionists exceeded my expectation and I felt at home. Hotel is clean, spacious, nice looking with good internet. It is in the tourist district of Thamel. Within walking distance of many restaurants, shops, banks, and my Trekking company. After trying food elsewhere once, I stuck to Samsara Kitchen the entire time. I stayed there total of 8 days and had a great time. Two days paid by my Trek company and 6 days paid by me. It was highly affordable.

United KingdomThis is a lovely hotel in the Thamel area, and from so many to choose from, we found this had the best price for what you get. It is a large comfortable lobby and professional reception area, the manager is always on hand to assist with any questions. The rooms are spacious and with hot water, air conditioning, and wifi, it was perfect after a long trek. They also have airport pickup, and can arrange the airport dropoff for a good price. I would highly recommend this hotel.

AustraliaGreat location and great service! Samsara contacted us before our booking and provided a free private transfer service from the airport to the hotel. Checking in was easy and the room was spacious, tidy and had everything we needed. On top of this the breakfast was excellent quality. On top of everything the price was outstanding too!
