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.).

United KingdomNothing. This place was perfect.
We spent five unforgettable days at Rainforest in Athirapally in February 2025, and from the moment we arrived, we knew it was a special place. The atmosphere is incredibly relaxing, and the view of the waterfalls is simply breathtaking. The rooms are spacious and airy, with thoughtful touches like handmade soap. We also really appreciated the hotel’s commitment to sustainability—no plastic bags or cutlery, and dim lighting at night to avoid disturbing wildlife. The swimming pool was another highlight. It’s kept crystal clear and cleaned every morning, and swimming with the waterfalls in the background is an experience in itself. Being surrounded by forest, we spotted sambar deer, leaf birds, wild boars, and giant squirrels—it felt like being in the heart of nature. But what truly made our stay special was the service team, especially Zakhir and Suresh, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Their kindness, attentiveness, and genuine care made all the difference, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Rainforest felt like home away from home, and we can’t wait to come back.

A very special place. Quite unique. Fantastic views. Charming, helpful staff. Good food. Great breakfasts. Gorgeous rooms, very clean and well appointed all overlooking the waterfall. Good walks all around. Lovely Spa, reasonably priced, they will give you a discount if you ask. We took a short walk down to the Tree House (they will give you a key if it is not booked). We had sundowners there, delightful! The hotel is alcohol free so Bring your own drinks. It is also plastic free - highly commendable! Highly recommend even if it is rather expensive………. But there’s nothing like it.

IndiaDirty swimming pool, fixed food menu.
My experience in rain forest Welcome given on a very rude manner. Welcome drinks and snacks were given but before even we finish it the manager was in a hurry to put us in our room. Since there was an vip guest they want to be present there and treated us very rudely. Food : menu is fixed and you can't have what u like to have. Imagine you are on a vacation and you can't even eat wat you feel like eating. Once I called for a cup of tea to reception. Back call came that tea is available in the room and you can make it with water. I insisted that i want tea with milk and sugar. Not with hot water. Another incident is that i called up reception for any pain relief oil for headache. I was surprised that the call was answered by ayurvedic doctor who is sitting on reception. Initially he said in our lab we don't have any kind of pain relief oil. And after insisting he said that i have to purchase it for 300 rs. I mean these are all some basic first aid that they should be ready in middle of the forest. Bathroom drain was fully clogged with dirt and not cleaned properly... No basic aminities like kettle, spoon, brush, paste, inside the room. And no food is allowed inside the room. (For this I guess they shud have a valid reason.) Manager was very rude in the sense he was more like ordering and not a service friendly person. I felt like a jail when there was a restriction in food menu and stict instruction to come by 8 for treaking. Apart from the view the hotel has nothing. Swimming pool was so dirty that no one could use it. May be they will treat oly vip's as their guest and not normal people who book the room for the same price as paid by the vip's. Very disappointing behaviour by the general manager. Not worth visiting rain forest resort.
