Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

IranIts not that I bring it as a negative point, but I mention it in case anyone needed: You may need to walk for at least 10 minutes to get to the hotel. The main street might be blocked by cars or rishkas at different times of the day and this could happen alot. Consider this. Room 104: bathroom floor remains wet and water could not flow to the drain.
The location is great for wandering around, visiting the famous ghat and the live section of the city. You can easily get to the main ghat in 4 minutes walk through narrow alleys. Its wonderfu.. The staff were great. Greeted us with cold water in the hot days that we were in Varanasi. They also helped booking the boat ride to watch the sunrise over Ganga. Beddings were clean and room facilities were good. Both air fan and AC were working. We encountered two electric cutouts but fans were working.

We had a short trip to Banaras, but Singh Uncle, the host, is very helpful and gave us great ideas to ensure we cover most of the places within the city. The accommodation is located slightly in the interior of the lanes of Banaras, however uncle ensured that we were picked up and dropped to our convenience on time. It's an ideal place for a longer stay and to experience the true essence of the Banaras culture. All the important places of visit such as the ghats, Kashi Vishwanath are closeby and walkable.. All in all we had a great time...

United KingdomWiFi was not the best, and as location is so close to the ghats be aware cars and autos cannot get there. The nearby streets are very narrow and larger ones are only accessible by walking or cycle rickshaw, as they are packed with lots of people.
Great location just a few mins walk from Ganga Aarti at Dashashwamedh ghat and all the best local street food places. Clean rooms with good AC. Very helpful staff who coordinated with driver to help with luggage transport to and from the car parked some distance away. Would stay again.

MalaysiaWas there during the Khumbmela festival. So the noise outside was abit crazy even after past midnight. Not the hotels fault though, just so happen we were there during Khumbmela. So beware if you’re there during the festival.
Nice owner, formerly a lecturer in the US. Provided free water and even chai tea for us at no charge. Great location along one of those small alleyways in old town, so it’s near to most tourist attractions.

RomaniaThe owner was very friendly and we found new information and help through him. Varanasi is the quintessential of 🇮🇳: life and death on the Ganga, in the most natural way. 2nd of April is the day when Ganga rest in silence: no boat on the river , the entire day. A unique day.
