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...).

IndiaFood Options were not available... except we need to order and staff going out to bring the same. Food Options can be built inside since the place is located far from nearby local facilities. Road to the facility needs to be improved... as well as parking facility to be enhanced.

IndiaNo electric kettle for hot water, and no tea or coffee making facility in the room, room floors could be cleaner, if there was a induction or small stove it would have been very convenient for people travelling with family of small kids. TV was not working. The stairs are very steep the stay may not be advisable for people with disability for walking or climbing stairs.
Good location, helpful and friendly staffs and good breakfast. Campfire was enjoyable. Common kitchen facility available for minimal cooking. Good WIFI connectivity

IndiaA sink in the washroom and better water pressure would have made it exceptional.
The hospitality of Ashik and his team was very good. They catered to all needs that were asked. The location was very nice. A short hike would take you to a spot to view sunrise, which was great. Short hikes were possible nearby. If you expect a typical hotel stay this is not the place for you, It's more homely, casual and close to nature. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

IndiaVariety of food was low initially, but the hosts more than make up for any deficiencies with their amazing warmth and friendliness. Ask them for any thing you require.
Amazing location and great hosts - Ashik, Basil and Akhil. Tranquiland is an amazing stop for backpackers, travellers and wanderers alike. Lovely location overlooking the hills, a short walk from amazing meadows and experiences, surrounded in the hills by clouds and if you're lucky spotting wild life is just a 2 minute walk away. 100% recommend.

IndiaWe were really looking forward to a adventurous getaway in Kodaikanal but were deeply disappointed with our stay here. First of all, the path leading to the place is dangerously steep and barely accessible by car. There’s parking only for two small cars, which is ridiculous. The room was far from cozy — the bed was too small for two people, pillows gave us neck pain, and the mattress felt like a rock. Even worse, the windows were broken and the main door lock was half falling off. There’s no private bonfire either, just one shared with other guests — which ruined the vibe for us. Would not recommend this place to anyone.
