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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

IndiaMy room was close to the parking so when some customers made some noise, it disturbed a bit, otherwise the place was very quiet a far from the noise pollution.
This place was really great, the rooms had generously spacious and decorated with the heritage style. The location of this place was also great (Sector 8) which is in the middle of the market center (Sector 17) and the lake. Staff was very kind and helpful. The owner allowed us to stay in our room few hours after the check-out time, which was really kind of him.

IndiaMe and my spouse (Kinshuk) along with our parents, had a truly wonderful experience staying at Anchorage 42, a lovely homestay nestled in the peaceful surroundings of Sector 8. The home is not only beautifully maintained but also exudes a calm, welcoming atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at ease. A special mention to our hosts, Dan and Nandita ji, who were exceptionally hospitable. Dan, a generous and warm soul, is also an amazing art connoisseur. He gave us a detailed tour of the place, sharing stories behind the unique artworks and thoughtful decor that adorn the home. His passion for art really adds character to the space. What made the stay even more memorable was Dan’s kindness and humility, though a person of great stature, he came personally to bid us goodbye. Both he and Nandita ji are incredibly humble and kind, creating an environment that feels more like visiting family than just booking accommodation. If you’re looking for a quiet, charming, and heartwarming stay in the city, Anchorage 42 is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!

We belong to a cohort of adults - seasoned in experience, exposure and education. When a destination like Anchorage 42 beckons its guests - the magic of Punjabiyat of yesteryear’s shines through. Be it the attention to detail or the Captain’s lure into the world of art decor - the reminiscences will lull you into a euphoric state. If you miss him on the breakfast table - trust me the host will be knocking on the door to check if his TEAM has taken care. Anchorage 42 spells love, care and affection. Taste it to believe it.

IndiaAbsolutely one of the most memorable homestay experiences I’ve had. The property is beautifully curated, filled with stunning artwork and thoughtful decor that reflects impeccable taste. Though we had to leave early and could only stay for breakfast, every moment was warm and welcoming. I’m already looking forward to coming back and soaking in more of this charming space!

United KingdomEverything was amazing
An amazing Homestay property with a nautical theme and wonderful art and ceramics. The room was the best we stayed in on our month long tour of India. The property was in a quiet upmarket district of Chandigarh and just a 20 minute walk from the Rock Garden. The breakfast was really good and prepared freshly for us. I really cannot recommend this property enough, if you are travelling to Chandigarh this is the place to stay, you will love it

United KingdomThe check-in experience wasn't wonderful, the staff who greeted us only had a booking name in a WhatsApp message, and didn't speak any English. We were left wondering what to do to actually check in once the bags had been dropped off in the room. Once checked-in, staff were reasonably friendly and approachable, but we never felt particularly welcomed.
A large house, beautifully and quirkily decorated by the owners with a huge range of movie, tv memorobilia, as well as art from a life of travel. Clean, well decorated rooms with good A/C as well as cooling fans. Large bed, with a hard mattress (with optional bed topper to soften the experience). Lots of nice touches in the room to make it feel homely. It's in a green, leafy suburban part of Chandigarh, away from the noise and chaos of the wider city. It's well located for the city's famous Rock Garden, as well as other amenities. Breakfast is tasty, with some hot local options available, made to order. Plenty of choice, with bottled water freely available.
