How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified review308 / 5 000 Very nice location - Lakeside Pokhara - near the lake, we went to the boats on the way to the other side to the Peace Stupa and climbed up the stairs to it. We also managed to see Manaslu and Annapurna. Good breakfast, great pool, nice cafes and a great restaurant Moondance nearby. Bartender Sandesh Adhiharin mixed us a really delicious margarita in the evening at the bar but also by the pool. Manager Pooja Thapa helped with a taxi and anything we needed. Thank you
We were satisfied

Verified reviewAs this was the furthest West I was going to travel during my trip around Nepal, I wanted to treat myself to a slightly higher quality hotel - and I was not disappointed.
This is not Temple Himalaya Hotel & Spa's fault, but I guess it was my bad luck that the hotel next door apparently had it's grand opening the same night (or at least that's what I was told, at the front desk)? I was informed that the blaring music and merriment would stop at 10 p.m., but it continued until closer to 11 p.m.? I was hoping to get an early start to the following day, so that was an inconvenience. But aside from that, a very pleasant stay.

Be careful with the travel manager, he always wants to charge you more for any travel service like a trekkings or bus tickets to Kathmandu. Always check other places before.

Verified reviewAmazing stay!!! At first we weren’t sure of booking the hotel because the last reviews were a little negative. But it was far from that. The best to point out, is the staff. Very attentive, very friendly. It was my boyfriends birthday, we got an upgrade, and they had a cake and sing for him. The room was also very nice. We loved it there!
A little downside is that the pool is in the shade quite a lot of a day, and the pool surrounding could use a little fresh up.
Dear Dana, Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience at our hotel! We’re absolutely delighted that you decided to book with us despite any hesitation, and we’re thrilled to hear that your stay far exceeded expectations. Your kind words about our staff mean the world to us—they truly love creating special moments for our guests, and we’re so happy they could make your boyfriend’s birthday unforgettable with the upgrade, cake, and celebration. It’s feedback like yours that reminds us why we do what we do! Regarding the pool area, thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We appreciate you highlighting areas where we can improve, and we’ll certainly take your comments about the shade and the surrounding space into consideration. Our team is always working to enhance our facilities, and your input helps us prioritize these updates. We hope to welcome you back soon and create more magical memories together.

Really not worth this price, with this price, you could book several resorts next to the lake. For this hotel, you still need to walk 5-10mins to the town, and the breakfast is really bad. The room is not clean. Overall, it’s not value for money
Dear Mingyao, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're pleased to hear you found our staff kind. We would like to clarify that our hotel is located in a prime area, just a short walk from the town and lake, offering both convenience and tranquility. Our top-floor rooms feature fantastic views and modern amenities, designed to enhance your stay. We’re surprised to hear your comments about breakfast, as we usually receive great feedback on our lavish breakfast spread. Additionally, a complimentary late checkout and airport drop was extended during your stay as a gesture of hospitality. We wish you had informed our reception about any dissatisfaction during your stay—we are always here to assist and make things right. Your feedback is important to us, and we hope to welcome you again for a better experience. Kind Regards Temple Himalaya Hotel and Spa
