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.).

PolandI loved everything. I was travelling with kids so the one thing which would have made it even better was an option of re-heating food and some kettle/ cutlery. There was a fridge to store food but there was nothing to heat it back.
The rooms were very clean and the place was very close to the main attraction. A swimming pool on the terrace was a bonus. The staff was also very polite and friendly. A very nice vegetarian restaurant " Ananad bhavan " was like 1 minute walk away. The staff arranged an all exclusive taxi service for us.

CanadaWe were disappointed that the kitchen was essentially non-functional. The fridge worked, but it would have been nice to also have access to a microwave, kettle, dishes, and cutlery. A kettle was kindly provided to us upon request. It would have also been more convenient if the hotel had a water refill station available to guests.
The rooms were pristine, spacious, and the beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed a restful two days in Kochi during our visit. We appreciated the AC and multiple fans to keep cool. Staff were helpful and able to provide some basic items when requested, such as a kettle. They also arranged a taxi for us for day excursions. The best feature was the excellent location, within walking distance to the major attractions in Fort Kochi.

AustraliaOnly one complimentary water bottle for 2 people. Pool is not covered and thus unusable during the day, due to the extreme UV and the scorching heat.
Good location (very close to the Katakhali Theatre and the beautiful Santa Cruz Cathedral). Great room with comfortable beds. Staff were friendly and helpful. Family rooms are great for families or groups and great value for money too.

United KingdomI wanted to have a kettle for my sinus rinse as I prefer to use a bottle of water for it.
Swimming pool was clean and quiet. My 6 years old didn't touch the feet on the bottom that made her good swimming practice. The staff are very helpful. They booked the seats for Kathakali, Autorickshaw little tour in very good price and Taxi to airport. They don't have restaurant but the restaurant (veg) near by was very good and opens from 7.30 am.

IrelandIt's a pity they don't do food especially as they have a fully equipped restaurant on the top floor. The airconditioner in our room was a bit noisy.
The great thing about Fort Abode is the pool on the roof. What a treat in the city when the temperature is really hot. The structure of the hotel is a bit odd. It's built more like a group of apartments where you rent a room and there is a sitting room and non-functioning kitchen as a communal space. There is a central atrium running through the building which gives a very airy feeling. The floors and stairs are all polished marble-like tiling and are kept spotlessly clean. The staff were friendly and looked after us very well.
