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 reviewGreat hotel, worth the little extra effort to get to. We (family of 5) stayed in one of the superior family rooms which was great, super comfortable and spacious with everything you need. The room also had a patio area with a picnic table and we could bring food from the breakfast buffet and sit outside and eat which was a great way to start the day. Food was great. The pool was great and a good way to break up the day and escape the heat, though it is small with not many chairs around it, so can fill up. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Dear Henry, We sincerely thank you for your wonderful feedback and for taking the time to share your experience with us. Your kind words truly honored us. We are delighted to know that our service, room and pool contributed to an exceptional stay for you. As the Gamirasu Cave Hotel family, we are delighted to be a part of your holiday.

Verified reviewBreakfast was nice. We liked the lovely fresh hot paneer that the ladies made and the freshly prepared eggs. There was a large assortment of items to choose from on the buffet. Also our waiter Hakan was very friendly and gave us excellent service. I really appreciated the manager Burhan's service at helping me retrieve my jacket which I left behind in the hotel closet as he went out of his way to retrieve the jacket and is going to send it to me in the states. Service is very important in the hotel industry and he seemed happy to help also.
I should have paid closer attention to the hotel's location. The hotel is located in a very remote tiny village, Ayvali, very far from everything. There were no other restaurants available to us other than the hotel. There were a couple of restaurants in the village, but they were closed. We would have preferred staying close to the main attractions in Goerme that offered many restaurant choices, views of the fairy chimneys and the hot air balloons as they fly. All though others may prefer this quiet location especially if you have a car. The room we were originally given was large king suite, but dark since it is a cave after all. I was thankful Burhan, the manager on duty readily offered us another room, the Presidental Suite that had more light, windows, and a view of the caves, but it was a bit dusty and the bathroom tub and sink were dirty. All though this hotel offers up hand-crafted motifs and authenticity preserving Turkish culture, it could do with a bit of updating and deep cleaning. The hotel pool looked lovely, but it is not heated so we weren't able to use it. I'm sure guests will find it very comfortable and nice during in just a few more weeks.
Hello Dear Cyndi, Firstly, thank you for choosing us and for your valuable comments. Our business's location and address are clearly stated during the booking process, so I would advise you to be a bit more careful during the booking process. Unfortunately, you did not like our most popular room, the king suite, which is in the king suite category, but we accepted your request for a room change in order to assist you in the best way possible. We have made every effort to assist you in all matters, but your valuable opinions are always important to us. We would also appreciate it if you could share your thoughts on the beauty of our hand-crafted motifs and the authenticity and culture preserved in our renovated furnishings at our Cappadocia boutique hotels. Complaints about external services occasionally reach our business, but you know that we strive to offer you the most comfortable and best prices. Nevertheless, we will once again evaluate all your valuable feedback, whether positive or negative, as well as any shortcomings or excesses. Thank you. Best Regards, Burhan Kaya

No fault of the hotel, but location. It is quite far (25/30mins) to Goerme, so if you want to do most activities based there. I would advise to rent a car. This gave us flexibility to explore around Cappadocia at any given time. The roads are comfortable to drive on if you are an experienced driver.
Hello Dear Elika, First of all, thank you for all your feedback. We hope that we have been instrumental in making you have a nice birthday.
