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 reviewSubha GH is just the perfect place to be in Bhaktapur: right in the center, near all the amazing squares that newari people built after so many centuries. We enjoyed very much eating a delicious breakfast and lunch prepared by the nice and kind newari couple that runs this place, Mohan and Ranjana. We tasted the typical food of their culture for lunch and had a great eggs, pancake, fruit, tea and Juju dhau (the best youghur in the world) for breakfast!!! Rooms are neat and clean, calm and silent, hot water runs perfectly!!
Nothing I can say!!!

Verified reviewThe location is perfect. 30 seconds walking from Pottery Square, 1 minute from Taumadhi Square and max. 5 minutes to Durbar Square. Nice but simple roof terrace. Kind service provided by the hosts.
The Guest House is located in the old part of Bhaktapur, which means you need to buy an admission ticket to reach it. Didn't know in advance.
Dear guest Boy, Thanks a lot for your valuable review and informative note about entance ticket to enter core area of UNESCO city. Best regards Subha Guest House

Verified reviewSubha Guesthouse is just a stone throw away from Pottery Square and the location is very convenient, although it might be a bit loud early in the morning (or perhaps it was just an early parade for a special celebration?). The host Mohan and his wife are lovely people, very caring and helpful. They served excellent breakfast on the rooftop (try the local yoghurt Juju dhao!) and were very kind to us; they also kept our backpacks while we were away on a two-day trip. The room was clean and cosy. Lastly, make sure you visit Mohan's shop (beautiful woodcarving crafts and artwork). Thank you!

Verified reviewLocation is excellent. The staff were very friendly and helpful and provided us guidance on exploring the area. Nice places to eat nearby. We stayed 4 of us together in a room, and it was great value for money in such a prime location.
The facility uses solar for water heating and at no time did we get more than lukewarm water for bathing. We tried morning and evening on the 2 days we were there, but it didnt help.

Verified reviewGreat location yet quiet at night. Good beds, clean sheets, nice hot water in the shower. Unlimited drinking water Overall ok for a budget place.
Because I am on genious 3 level on Booking I get good discounts. the owner didn’t like that and he calculated a higher rate. We paid anyway, but no tip!
Dear guest Zeynep, Thanks a lot for your valuable review and words. Regarding discount, I just reminded you that you are genius guest and have received the good discount that we are providing to the genius guest. Its is not that I am not willing to provide you discount, it is automatically calculated rate. I charged a bill only that was in during booking and with genius discount price. Sorry for misunderstanding. Hope to see you here again and again. Best regards Subha Guest House

Verified reviewThe property was cozy, clean and the beds were very comfortable. We stayed during the end of December so the weather was much cooler at night and the owners gave us a space heater and extra blankets at no extra charge. The location is perfect right next to the pottery square and Bhaktapur Dubar Square. Our host was very nice and helped us with a taxi to the airport and with local recommendations for our time there. We would definitely stay there again.
Nothing.

Verified reviewThis guest house is in a fantastic location! It is right between Bhaktapur Durbar Square and Pottery Square- you can walk to many attractions and it is very easy to find. There is also a very nice café right across the road that serves very good coffee and has the absolute sweetest baristas! The room and attached bathroom was very clean and comfortable. There are plenty of outlets, there is water in the room, and the hot water in the shower works well. I would recommend this homestay to anyone visiting Bhaktapur!
I have no complaints, the Subha Guest House was the perfect place for my time in Bhaktapur.

Verified reviewManager and all the staff are exceptionally kind, nice people. In addition, very helpful. He helped me with everything (instructed lost taxi driver on the phone, explained ongoing ceremonies), always with that kind and genuine smile of his. Location couldn't be better: 1-min walk from main square (tall temple). Rooms are clean, everything is working, soap and toilet paper provided, clean sheets + blanket. Would definitely go back. Nice rooftop.
