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...).

SingaporeThe hosts were very warm and took care of every aspect of our stay. Mr. Chinnaraj the owner of the property is one of the nicest person i have met. He has very good energy and always eager to help the guests in their needs and wants. Cook is fabulous and you get to eat very delicious and healthy food here. Overall our stay was very comfortable. Would like to visit this property again on my next visit to kotagiri. Would highly recommend for travelling with friends and family.

IndiaThe property advertises a waterfall just 200m away, but in reality it’s almost 5 km, with the last stretch being unsafe. The stay is also on the costlier side – it would feel more worth it if the waterfall was actually close and private to the property.
Clean rooms, good food, and very helpful staff available 24/7. Peaceful location with a tea factory nearby that gives demos and explanations – a unique and interesting experience.

IndiaBathrooms could have been cleaner. Limited lunch and dinner options with overpriced and large portions which we could not finish. Parking is a tight squeeze.
Breakfast was traditional South Indian and good .Also had bread /omlette and sandwich. Location was excellent , very quiet and beautiful to walk around, away from the noise of the town.

IndiaThis is more like a home stay, than a resort. Its a small property with 4 rooms and they are still in the process of completing some of the construction works. The facilities in general are good, but I wouldnt put them at par with resort levels. Some of the things used appear a bit cheap. As indicated earlier, the food is a bit too pricey for the kind of property (example: pepper chicken was costing 600 rupees and even the chapathi price was >40, as far as I recall). May be more transparency on food pricing would be helpful for guests. Also there are no other good food options nearby.
The best part of this property is its location. The view from the room was absolutely amazing. The food, though a bit too pricey, was tasty. Staff were friendly.

IndiaNothing as such. Only suggestion is to mention about the stairs for accessibility which was bit difficult for my mother to cover to reach to the room.
Overall it was a good stay. Very nice view, clean room, great hospitality. Most importantly the food was super yumm. Loved it.

IndiaI understand that we from the busy cities are obsessed with connectivity, hence the concern was only a wifi good enough to help us get through some important work .
The Owner , his wife and staff were very polite , helpful and amazingly honest. This would be the place to go to break from the choppy world elsewhere. Good food , excellent service . We even had food with the owners too. This made our visit even better . The staff are so overwhelming calm and loving . best wishes to them . The advice they give you is so good to go around . My pet even had special love and care .

IndiaNothing as such. Some minor finishing work is still left in the property. Once that is done i think it will be perfect place to spend the holiday in Nilgiris
Its an amazing property with a breath taking view. One can easily enjoy the holiday just by staying at this place and exploring the surroundings. You really dont need to go to all those crowded view points

IndiaThe view from the room was absolutely stunning — waking up to the mist-covered valley was magical. The interiors were cozy and well-designed with a nice blend of rustic and modern elements. It was peaceful, private, and a perfect place to relax and disconnect from the outside world.
