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 reviewNice staff. Great Garden with litchi tree. Nice (but warm) pool. Big room. They organized nice and rather cheap safari for next day (walking, boat, jeep). Private lodge.
Staff not always available for questions, we could ask about food. So no meals available. Room was ok.

Verified reviewI got a room upgrade and it was very good. The room was big and comfortable. The hotel is in a very good location. Everything is walking distance away. The owner is very helpful and friendly. She organised my visits and also my bus ticket back to Kathmandu. I would stay there again for sure

Verified reviewThe staff were super friendly and so helpful and really made the trip to Chitwan super special. The owner took us on a half day walking trip in the jungle and we learned so much about the plants and animals. He also organised a jeep trip in the afternoon. Ghanga very kindly went to town and got some lights for us to take home as we loved the ones in the room. Nothing was too much trouble. The hotel was lovely with very spacious rooms and a very comfy bed.
Only slight negative was we booked here as it had a swimming pool but on arrival it was empty. All in all it wasn't the end of the world and didn't detract from the stay as all the positives more than made up for it. We would have struggled for time to use the pool anyways.

Verified reviewReally comfortable and big room with attached bathroom and decent shower (I upgraded to the AC room). The pool is actually bigger than I was expecting for the price of the place and the AC worked very well. The owner of the hostel was really friendly. Good location a couple of mins from the main high street and about 20 mins walk from the river front. You could also borrow a bicycle for free which was a great bonus.
The pool could be slightly cleaner, but for the price I can't complain and it was still OK to swim in unless you are fussy. I'm sure it was cleaner than many other swimming pools in Nepal.

Verified reviewNice quiet place with a beautiful garden and a nice swimmingpool. The staff was really friendly. The last night they offered me a room with AC for free what was really generous. My room was basic but everything that I needed. I had the room with fan what was fine. slightly hot during the day but for me fine at night. I enjoyed my stay at Tharu lodge!
the room and bathroom could use some maintenance.

Verified reviewI enjoyed my time while staying in Tharu Lodge. The atmosphere of the place is chill and laid-back, the owners are helpful and great people. Bungalow style apartments which I liked a lot, simple but still decent.

Verified reviewI really enjoyed my stay at Tharu lodge. The property is in a good location. The room was big and clean and the air-con was a big plus as the weather was around 40*C during my stay. The bed was big and the bedding was clean. The owners are very nice and accommodating. They have a washing machine and offered a same day service for a very reasonable price. The pool was also a really nice addition, especially due to the heat. It’s not quite as clean as western standards but still good and much nicer than other pools i’ve seen in Nepal. All in all, I was very happy with my stay and could not have asked for more, especially for the price!
