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 StatesThe furnishings are a little old, and the bedsheets sometimes didn't fit quite right. But it was no big deal at all.
We loved the restaurant. The food was good and the staff of the hotel and restaurant was so accomodating and nice. The location was perfect,, as it was quiet and yet you could easily walk to everything. It was handy that they had a laundry service and provided excursions including transportation. This place was a GREAT deal.

Czech RepublicThe balcony was small – more suited for smokers than for sitting comfortably. The rooftop terrace seemed a bit abandoned. There were signs saying to contact the reception in case you wanted food or drinks (with a phone provided), but at night it was just dark, unlike the rooftops of some other hotels nearby.
What made our stay perfect was the staff – especially two young ladies whose names I, unfortunately, can't remember. :) The room was spacious enough and comfortable. The only downside was the shower curtain, which wasn't very practical – water tended to splash everywhere. However, the hotel provided hard slippers, which helped. Other than that, we really have no complaints. Breakfast was very good, with eggs (even à la carte, as well as coffee), fresh fruit, cheese, some noodles, salami, pastries, juice... There are plenty of food, travel, and laundry options nearby, which is very convenient.

We stayed here before and after our trek and we used to dream about coming back here while enduring the hardships of some of the trekking accommodation. This place was wonderful before we left and it felt like paradise when we returned ! The staff were particularly diligent and helpful and the buffet breakfast was the best I have ever had in a hotel of this level.

Everything! Stayed at this hotel for the third time during my trip to Nepal. Again, the staff are just lovely and couldn't do enough for you. The rooms and beds are very clean and comfortable, with great views from the balconies. If I go back to kathmandu, I will definitely stay here again. Couldn't ask for anything more!

India-The Triple-Bedded Room lacked seating options like a sofa or chairs, which was a bit disappointing. -The balcony of the Triple-Bedded Room was a major letdown—it was extremely dirty and covered in pigeon droppings, making it unusable.
We stayed at this hotel for three nights and had a generally positive experience. Situated just a two-minute walk from Thamel, it offers the convenience of being close to the vibrant area while remaining tucked away in a peaceful neighborhood. We booked a Triple-Bedded Room and a Double-Bedded Room. Both were spacious and comfortable, with the Double-Bedded Room standing out as our favorite. It featured cozy beds and large windows that allowed plenty of sunlight to brighten the space. One of the highlights of our stay was the terrace. We absolutely loved it! The terrace offered excellent views of Kathmandu city and the surrounding hills, making it a perfect spot to relax and take in the scenery. The breakfast buffet was another highlight, offering a generous spread of delicious options. The coffee, in particular, was noteworthy. The owner, Mr. Hari, was incredibly helpful. He assisted us in arranging a car for sightseeing and for our transfer to Nagarkot, all at reasonable rates. Despite a few drawbacks, this hotel is a good choice for staying in Kathmandu. It strikes a great balance by being close to the lively Thamel area while offering a quiet retreat from the hustle and bustle.

It was my first time in kathmandu, and I couldn't have picked a better place to stay. On arrival I was given a drink and all the staff were very welcoming and polite. The room was very clean and spacious, bigger than I expected from the photos. The shower in my private bathroom was just great, proper hot water and so much pressure. I ate at the restaurant my 1st night, and the vegetable thakali set was delicious and very filling. A great introduction to nepali food. I also like where the hotel is in relation to Thamel. It's just at the edge of the main area, so you can be in the middle of Thamel in about 5 minutes of walking, but it is very nice and quiet in the evening. I like the place so much I have stayed there twice already and am staying again before I leave Nepal. Can't recommend this place enough.
