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...).

IndiaNo proper maintenance in management of the guest bookings. The rooms were not allotted as per our bookings. There was multiple requests to adjust the changes. It was evident that other guests too had the same issues. Also prices were too high for this type of rooms. Rooms are good, but not worth this much paying.
Location of the hotel and staff professionalism were good. Rooms were decent and nice to stay for family. Swimming pool was an added attraction.

IndiaIt is not worth the money and no breakfast at hotel. They just get 1-2 items from hotel and parcel you to the room.
There was no buffet. They just orders from some local hotel and serve you in the room. This is the worst part of this hotel.

IndiaThe front desk team denied to give us rooms, even when we had a reservation, saying rooms were soldout. On demanding an explanation he called to his manager and passed on the phone to me where I denied to speak. I don't know whether it was technical glitch or intentional, we got stuck at night in heavy rain before finding an alternative. Worst experience.

IndiaThe last time we visited the place we had a good experience. Based on which we suggested our friends to stay here. But it was a complete disaster from the time of check in. Proper rooms were not alloted. And the alloted rooms weren't clean. There were ants all over the place. Walls had moulds. Bathroom door broken. Sewage water was coming out of drain whenever the sink was used and there was sewage smell. House keeping not done regularly. No bedsheets changed, No fresh towels were given. Cleaning had to be requested everyday. The sewage water from bathroom was informed to them but they just kept saying plumber will come in the morning please don't use the sink and adjust for tye night. We adjusted through this the entire stay. Worst experience ever. Everytime we asked them for anything the answer would by No. Even complementary water bottles were not given, which was supposed to be given even before asking. Overall disappointment.

AustraliaThis is the 'Fawlty Towers' of Pondicherry. Management was incompetent & inept. Manager not available to check us in at 1pm, I had to fill in the Register, cleaning lady showed us to the room. Manager repeatedly demanded I produce evidence that I paid 95% for the room. Had to show the Manager (Xavier) his WhatsApp confirmation. Lifts don't exist/work the only toilet in the world where you can take a crap and have a shower at the same time and smelly. Disappointing.
Location was good wth close access to the Auroville Beach (dirty and being encroached by the local fishermen's huts, pity some individuals use this beach as their toilet facilities. Disappointing, Pondicherry Govt must do something about it.
