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 reviewGreat Property. Awesome Food. Staffs are polite and helpful. Excellent service especially Mr Sanjay and Rama. Overall great experience, would like to repeat the stay in our next visit.
Last half km to the resort can be improvised (off roading). And the tariff also needs to be reduced a bit as per the facility.

Verified reviewWe had stated at the property for 2 nights and it was great. It's a very scenic place, ideal for couples and families, and working couples to unwind and enjoy the breathtaking views. Their restaurant menu is limited, however the food they serve is tasty and authentic flavour. The staff is very courteous and excellent service., especially the manager Sanjay who is very welcoming and engaging. The place is calm and quiet too.
The resort is uphill and the road is narrow and not tarred or cemented towards the last lap of the resort.
Dear Guest, Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear that you had an excellent stay with us and that you found the surroundings scenic and peaceful, just the kind of experience we aim to provide for our guests. We're especially glad to know that you enjoyed the food and appreciated the service from our team. Your mention of Sanjay will certainly make his day—we'll be sure to share your compliments with him and the rest of the staff. We truly value your feedback regarding the approach road to the resort. While the natural setting adds to the charm, we understand the last stretch can be a bit challenging. Please know that we're exploring improvements to make the access more convenient for our guests. Thank you once again for recommending us. We hope to welcome you back soon for another relaxing getaway! Warm regards, Team Sherlock

Verified reviewExcellent staff. Extremely warm and welcoming. Bala and David made our stay comfortable. My pets were very happy
1) Do not take the mountain view room. The garden view room is what you need to take here. 2) The ventilation in the Standard room is a little poor. 3) Only the mountain room and the garden rooms are pet friendly. However, the staff was very accommodating when it came to our requests with the pet. They allowed our pets in the standard room.
Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback on your stay at Sherlock Resort.
