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 reviewSituated in a newly established neighborhood bordering a forest park. I found it to be a vibrant and interesting environment. I like the homestay. It was quiet and comfortable with all the amenities desired for a satisfactory stay. There are plenty of local restaurants and cafes with budget friendly menus. The house has a kitchen and free drinking water so buy a bottle and reduce your waste....
The rooms all open onto the kitchen, so cooking odor could be a problem if you are sensitive to strong smelling creations.
Thank you

Verified reviewThe hostess, Dipa, was extremely friendly and helpful.
Its just not worth getting a room with own bathroom if there is no basin! Everything was just not what the pictures said it would be. Very disappointing.

Verified reviewThe room itself was very cheap and clean. Decent WiFi
Don’t expect breakfast even though it says the do it for free. I mentioned this to the owner as it’s misleading and he said he would remove it from here. I can see he hasn’t. I was asked if I wanted to do any tours or treks to which I replied no I’ve come here to relax, I got asked a further three times to the point of pestering me and then even WhatsApping me with the treks they provide. No means no. The bathroom needs a very good scrub it was filthy.

Verified reviewVery clean rooms and kitchen. Definetly value for money! Good warm showers and nice kitchen where you can make breakfast for example. Owner is very helpful and flexible. Location is little bit outside of the city center which gives you more peaceful enviroment but you still have very good restaurants near by.

Verified reviewVery good value. Great area to be in if wanting some quiet (relative). Roof top is a lovely space. Hosts helpful and responsive. Good budget restaurants close by.
Shared bathroom could do with a scrub down. Water not always warm.

Verified reviewThis is my favorite place to stay at in Kathmandu. It is nearby all the popular places, but in a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. The family that runs this place is very friendly. If you need any help with anything you can always ask them. Everything is clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend and come back anytime I’m in Kathmandu.

Verified reviewLocation is a bit far from the main touristic centre (Thamel), but you can easily take a motorbike taxi or the public bus and get there in 20 minutes. The area is super nice, nice cafes around, vegetable shops and some nice restaurants, so it’s the perfect option if you wanna be a bit outside the noisy roads. A huge plus is that it has a kitchen! We were making ourselves ginger tea in the evenings and it was sooooo nice during the winter. Also, the rooms are incredible, the bed is supremely comfortable, hot shower, and the rooms have balconies. Would defo go back when I visit Kathmandu.
Nothing!
