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...).

IndiaWhy do modern shower stall not have any shelf where you can keep the bath gel?! Itis a pain to keep the shampoo on the floor.......
The villa is beautiful old world right in the middle of Thamel , next to Third Eye, Yin Yang and a fabulous ice cream place Silk as well the most magical book shop called Pilgrims which has four floors of books and every other thing you can imagine.. The caretaker and help were sincere and helpful. The room was large and the bed very comfortable, with lots of charging points located sensibly near the bed, at the desk and near the electric kettle. The lobby area of the Villa is full of lovely old trees, very quiet even though it is right off the main street. The breakfast is via a coupon you can redeem at the Pumpernickle bakery down the road which was just amazing with many delicious options like a healthy yoga bowl and a full English breakfast.

AustraliaCold showers and no coffee or bar. It's just a room so if that's what you want it's fine.
Breakfast is at Pumpernickel which was fine, except there is no coffee in the room that I would want to drink. The people were friendly enough. It's a beautiful old villa that has been renovated and needs a touch up here and there. The outside area needs some work with a run-down lean-to at the end and just paving. Our room was cold, there is a heater which helped. The shower water tended to run cold if you shower in the morning as it's mostly solar. It would be great in the summer months. For the price I felt it was a little over, but right in the middle of Thamel so handy for amenities.

IsraelThe shower was a little problematic and there was no hot water most of the time (but this is the modus operandi of the country and the weather, nothing they can do about it)
The place is well-located and the staff is super helpful and polite, specially Rajiv and the young woman at the reception. Their breakfast café is really good.

Australia- shower water does not get hot - Luke warm at best - breakfast is in a completely separate location to the hotel about 5’mins walk away - Wi-Fi did not always work in my bedroom but staff were immediately accommodating and provided an alternative network that worked perfectly
lovely ambiance, quiet and serene in the heart of bustling Thamel! lovely greenery and flowers make you feel in nature and calm despite being moments away from the centre of Thamel.

IndiaThamel villa heritage hotel has excellent location, it’s a budget friendly heritage stay, Prem at the reception was extremely nice and helpful, the rooms are tastefully done and cozy. one suggestion, take a package without breakfast, as the hotel doesn’t offer breakfast in their premises, you have to go to a different venue. having said that, there are amazing places that open up really early in Thamel and one can easily have their choice of breakfast there.

United StatesThe bathroom layout was strange. The vanity was awkward, not very functional and right next to a mattress on the floor. The toilet room was on a landing with many steps going down to the shower which did not have a light, so I found a nightstand light and brought it down for light. I couldn't figure out the lighting situation. Many of the outlets would not allow a plug to stay on.
The bed was very comfortable.
