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):
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.
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.).

IndiaI didn't like that I have to leave the place in such a short period of time.
The location is picturesque, and vibe is chill. The staff took care of my stay as if they knew me for years. The food tastes just like my home. The attention to detail is something to be applauded for. Even if I was not in the premises, they used to call me if I had dinner or not, before their kitchen closed. One thing that I've never seen anywhere, and is very positive.

United KingdomThe route to the place has one u-turn which is a bit tricky especially when there are vehicles on both sides.
Wonderful calm location for a small group, can accomodate 5 cars max. Superb cook with great food and very knowledgable front desk folks. Location is close to Manali but yet away from the crowded touristy locales

IndiaApart from the view, these guys have the best food in town from Didi's sidhu to Shubhash bhai's Paratha with Chutney, Bunker Hostel had everything sorted out. Shreyas was kind enough to take us on walks to different spots in village where I was able to witness the local culture and their way of living.

IndiaThe Bunker Burwa is not just a hostel in Manali, it's a home for many. The beautiful artwork on the walls, the amazing views around, the kind staff are just perfect recipe for a mountain home. The warm atmosphere of the hostel makes you forget all about the crowds of Manali and allow you to enjoy the mountains in a very true sense.

IndiaNothing as such
The Bunker, as always, has fantastic location, folks and food. This property in Burwa specifically has a majestic Burwa Valley view and a garden in front and back. You would love to spend your mornings basking in the sun under the apple tree in the front garden and trek through the beautiful forests and farms through the backyard towards the river flowing by. The rooms and dorms are fantastic and cozy. The food, as always, is one of the best in Manali. Naihad and Shreyas are great hosts, and time will just fly by staying and chilling at the property. I highly recommend the room with bath tub as it has windows on all sides and a bathtub facing the mountains and you would love your time gawking at the scenery around. The property also features a loaded common room which opens in the lush green backyard and is loaded with games, musical instruments, TV and more. Also, you would find yourself awestruck by beautiful paintings all around the property. Also, if it matters, the property has ample space for 2 and 4 wheeler parking inside the property.
