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...).

A word for Anantya in the Village: This soothing boutique hotel in the heart of South-central Tamil Nadu has been a fantastic discovery. First up, it is not wildly expensive. All meals are entirely home-cooked and served by the most earnest people. The team managing the hotel goes above and beyond to make sure you're comfortable. They serve you tea / coffee whenever you ask for it, they make sure you're well fed and they give you all kinds of recommendations and even organize a ton of activities and trails for you. We couldn't do much but we plan on visiting them again to really participate in everything they have to offer. They even organize heritage immersion trips for kids, and that really blew my mind. If I'd had the opportunity to do something like this as a kid, I'd be a lot more connected to my roots today, I think. What makes this place different is that it is filled with the most beautiful stories of people who have lived in the area. Pradeep Chakravarthy, the owner, has so many stories to tell, recounting spending vacations at his ancestral home and a coconut tree climber's escapades and how government policy reshapes lives are only two of many stories infusing life, music and joy into the walls of the beautiful house that's now been turned into the hotel. Loved everything about the stay here and highly highly recommend! ♥️🌸

IndiaNothing that I didn’t like! But few things you should know: 1. There’s nothing much to do except read or temple! 2. There are lizards all over the property- except inside rooms, so beware that. 3. During festival there will be loud songs across the village! 4. As far as I could tell, there’s only Tamil food. Except lizards, I was fine with all of above!
Staff are awesome, food was good and facilities are good. It’s a nice experience for a stay in a TN temple village. There are some interesting books at the property which you should give a read. They have taken great efforts to provide comfort in a rustic space - really appreciate that! And I would give marks for effort to employ local folks and keeping things generally sustainable and all.

United StatesThe location is great for a tour of the local/regional temples. But otherwise, it is out of the way. Difficult to reach and with nothing to do, except for those temple visits.
A great little place and a gem of a discovery. Taj-style quality for less than what you'd pay at a GRT hotel. This is a great place to relax and meditate.
