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 reviewI really liked the friendly staff at Avalon House. They were humble, polite, and very helpful. They also gave me great advice about beautiful places to visit around Kathmandu. If you’re looking for a place to stay, need help with plane or bus tickets, or want a trekking related experience, they can arrange it all at a very reasonable price. Highly recommended!

Verified reviewThe manager was very helpful. Location central yet fairly quiet.
Room in need of some TLC - for example, lots of stains over the wall by the bed, which made it feel unclean. Big hole in the bathroom wall too

Verified reviewThe staff is very kind, friendly and helpful. They look after you and make you feel very comfortable. The location is just great, just some steps away from busy Thamel area but close enough to get everywhere at a walking distance.
The room was all good but it could be a bit more clean

Verified reviewThe owner and its employees are very, very nice and helpful. The location is very close to the busy part of Thamel, but not too close, meaning it is quiet but still close to all the good restaurants of Thamel. Roof terrace is nice, too.
Limited options for food offered by the hotel, and room/bathroom were "clean enough".

Verified reviewLocation is perfect; in a quiet alley close to Thamel road, shops and restaurants, easy access to all atractions of the city walking or by public transport. Rooms are big, clean and comfortable, breakfast was simple but enought. The best part is the staff's attention, they were always kind and so helpful, specially saput the manager, he helped me to get around and plan all my activities and transports. I would definitely come back and recommend it
Nothing, everything works perfect
Namaste Alberto thank you very much your kind review

Verified reviewThe Avalon House is a real good hostel. The Staff was realy kind and helpful. They could answer every question and also guided us to the bus, when we hat to go to Pokhara. We had a big and comfortable room withe a great view over Kathmandu. There was always hot water but the pressure was not that strong. The hot water came slow.
