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 liked everything. Nothing to complain about.
Location was central and close to government departments and judiciary. Good restaurants with excellent views. The rooms are rustic and cosy. The bed was neither too soft nor too hard. The water pressure was good and so was the hot water. Good Internet connectivity and a Smart TV in the room. The room decor stood out and it didn’t feel like one of those homogeneous hotel rooms the world needed over. Felt like I was staying at traditional Nepali home. The best part was the complimentary pick and drop for the airport. Will definitely recommend this hotel for business travel and will be my first option for future stays.

AustraliaWhat a wonderful hotel to stay at if you are in Kathmandu for a couple of days. Every floor of the hotel is very aesthetic and spacious. The hotel was very kind and gave us a complementary room upgrade to one of the suites. The room was the perfect space to spend our last day in Nepal; very clean with a lot of space to sort our luggage. The staff were very accommodating and understanding of our many requests (many taxi requests, airport pick up and drop off, late check out, looking after a last-minute thangka purchase delivered to the hotel, us staying at the hotel restaurant and foyer until our very late international flight). We had a complementary breakfast which was the best hotel-offered breakfast we had throughout our stay in Nepal, and we paid for a lovely Nepali thali dinner at the restaurant in the evening. We partly chose the hotel because it was located between the airport, Thamel and Lalitpur, which is a good location if you need to get to all three places (though note the traffic in Kathmandu is pretty bad!).

GermanyQuick one night stay at this hotel proved to be a lucky find. A bit away from the bustling noise of Kathmandu, this gem offered a quiet sleep, very friendly staff, and a shuttle to the airport in the morning (included). After having driven from the Chinese border to Kathmandu, I indulged in a deep tissue massage (thanks to all the staff in the spa area – Jaya and Sabito) and enjoyed dinner in the Nepali restaurant on top of the building. The staff at the reception, Smitri and Kushal were very helpful in organizing the transfer. Definitely worth a stay.

PolandStaying at Basera Boutique Hotel in Kathmandu was an unforgettable experience. This place is a true gem — a perfect fusion of refined luxury and traditional Newari architecture. Every detail, from the beautifully carved woodwork to the serene interior courtyards, reflects deep cultural roots and impeccable taste. My room was spacious, immaculately clean, and elegantly furnished, with the added indulgence of a private jacuzzi. The rooftop pool offers a stunning view of the city — the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring. The on-site spa is also exceptional: peaceful, professional, and deeply relaxing. What truly made our stay special was the staff. Always kind, attentive, and genuinely helpful, they ensured that every need was met with a smile. Whether arranging transport, offering local tips, or simply making us feel at home, the service was warm and flawless. If you’re looking for a place that combines comfort, tradition, and outstanding hospitality — I wholeheartedly recommend Basera Boutique Hotel. I would return in a heartbeat.

Staff at Basera were amazing. When I checked in at night, it was Kusal on duty who was really nice and warmly welcomed me after my long flight. During daytime, it was Smriti who was on duty for two days. She was fantastic and very helpful. She went above and beyond to ensure my stay was pleasant and assist with any queries. They made some beautiful coffees at the restaurant. I didn’t use much of the facilities as I was there for a trek. Cultural/traditional dance performances at dinner time was a really good experience. Nice and cosy place which is very clean and 5* staff!!!!!

FranceThere was an issue with the laundry I gave them but we quickly found a solution and I got the compensation I asked for. Staff was noisy in the corridor in the morning but after o advised reception, the issue was gone. Really 5 stars for service!!!
Everything! Good location, super good breakfast, spa with lots of options and Santi gave me the best massage, room lovely but above all the staff is incredibly helpful and reactive! Bonus for the free airport transport and the 24/7 room service. I really had a lovely time and would highly recommend. Doorman and valet on site - which makes it all look fancy.
