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...).

IndiaNot much to not like.
We had an amazing stay at Bohemian Hideaway at Kodaikanal. This sweet, comfortable and cozy little hobbit hole was everything that we needed, great views, clean rooms, amazing staff and beautifully decorated areas where one can just sit, relax, take in the views and read a book. The hosts were truly a comfort trying to make our stay a comfortable and memorable one. Huge shoutout to Balaji and the rest of the staff for great breakfast and other homely meals

IndiaHad a wonderful stay! The sheets were crisp and fresh, and the house was neat and clean also beautifully decorated which is something I personally value a lot. The staff was friendly and the food was great. It rained during our visit, and this stay was the perfect spot to enjoy the showers with a hot cup of coffee and some Maggi. There’s also a stream right behind the property, the sound of the flowing water was pure bliss. Absolutely loved this serene getaway.

IndiaI loved the ambience of the place and the warm hospitality of both the staff and hosts. The home style food was a huge plus for me, as it was nice and light on the stomach. I usually avoid outside food due to occasional stomach issues it creates. The property is easily accessible with good roads and is just 15 minutes away from the bustle of town, making it an ideal spot for a peaceful getaway. I highly recommend this stay if you’re looking for tranquillity and quiet.Will definitely be back soon

IndiaEverything about this place was amazing—the ambiance, the food, the handmade art, the vibe, the staff, and the owners. I booked this trip seeking peace, quiet, and great hospitality, and it delivered on every front. Tucked away from the bustle yet easily accessible, it was the perfect escape. I especially loved their cozy lounge setting, where I enjoyed my morning tea, sometimes in the company of beautiful peacocks. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a getaway like mine!

IndiaThe floors get cold so try to carry indoor footwear while visiting in colder months.
The place has terrific views and the distance from Kodai town ensures calm and peace. The nearby stream adds a meditative touch, thus validating its place in the title. Caretaker Balaji fed us some delicious home-cooked meals in the cozy lounge.

IndiaAs soon as I entered the private property lane leading to the property I was awestruck by the beautiful flaura and views that one could admire and take a walk through all day! Then driving to the end of the road, i spotted the cutest homestay I have ever stayed at which had all the privacy i could have asked for. The only sounds I could hear were the sounds of nature all throughout. And i remember telling myself that this is exactly what i came for. The host helped us out with some amazing recommendations for lunch as we were heading sightseeing. For dinner we ate some dal tadka, kadhai paneer and jeera rice at the property made by the cook there which was super yummy and fresh as well! Arun and Nikita are also one of the best hosts we have come across and made us feel extremely comfortable. Towards the end, im sure we could call ourselves their friends! Thank you for having us and we will definitely come back soon again!

IndiaEverything was amazing
This is the perfect place for anyone looking to unwind and relax in the lap of nature. Located around 15 minutes from the main Kodai Town, this homestay completely satisfied our need for peace and quiet. The room we stayed in was spacious and clean. The sound of the flowing stream at their property was so soothing to the ears. The hosts Arun & Nikita were always available for us and so helpful throughout our time there. The caretakers Dilip and Marco were sweet and helpful boys. Nikita, who is a certified yoga teacher also conducted a 1 hour yoga and meditation session for us by the stream at their property which was an amazing experience! I would love to come back and spend time here everytime I have some time off. It was one of the most relaxing short vacations ever, great value for money, and we all enjoyed it.
