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 StatesWhostels was very clean and cozy, and the staff were all very attentive and warm. The staff immediately assisted with whatever questions we had and were very friendly throughout our few days. The location is great. It is in a very accessible location to the gardens and Dal lake (walkable). For transit, I recommend sharing the street name and locality, rather the name of hostel with taxis and rickshaws for easiest access. We had no trouble reaching all of our desired locations in Srinagar, but it was nice to be off main roads in a quiet village area. The breakfast was also very good 🙏🏻

IndiaThe location. Though it's in the posh area of sringar close to dal lake. But, travelling to the location itself is cumbersome. Better if you have scooty as the roads are narrow.
The rooms are very neat and clean. The property offers some of the great food. A common room to read books and play games or two. The garden facing the property has a badminton facility. The hosts are welcoming.

United KingdomOver a week here I felt very secure, safe and comfortable. The building is lovely, and the staff were mostly great: they did stare at me a bit too much, but in terms of keeping the place clean and the guests fed, I can't complain. The owners happened to pop round while I was there and we had a lovely chat over coffee. The location is a bit of both, because it's really peaceful with a great view of the lake from the balconies, and the local neighborhood is very friendly, but this same remoteness does mean that getting anywhere in town requires using a taxi app or calling up, Srinagar taxis aren't so cheap, and some of them struggled with the narrow lanes. Luckily the place does provide its own food, and plenty of company in the common area with games and so on. It's great for a relaxed week and those with bikes (a good chunk of the guests) have no problem whatsoever but if you want to feel closer to the centre or save on transport, you might think twice. Hopefully Srinagar tuktuks will get less squeamish about going uphill and Google maps will start showing more Kashmiri buses!

United KingdomFood range and quality can be improved. Vegetation and foliage can do with little trimming and upkeep. Seems lots going outside but can do with little attention. People drying towels on chairs is not very welcoming especially if its your first visit.
The location and ambiance is great! its quite thriving, ideal fro young backpackers/travelers. Ample space to park vehicles, the view from room is great and has sufficient facilities,

ItalyThe 6 bed dormitory is very comfortable and you have your own privacy since the bunk bed has a little curtain which you can close and isolate yourself. The 4 bed dormitory even if it is more expensive is just a room with for bed and you have no privacy at all.
Very clean and i really like the food as well. Comfortable bed and very nice staff.
