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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

IndiaThe floors get cold so try to carry indoor footwear while visiting in colder months.
The place has terrific views and the distance from Kodai town ensures calm and peace. The nearby stream adds a meditative touch, thus validating its place in the title. Caretaker Balaji fed us some delicious home-cooked meals in the cozy lounge.

IndiaAs soon as I entered the private property lane leading to the property I was awestruck by the beautiful flaura and views that one could admire and take a walk through all day! Then driving to the end of the road, i spotted the cutest homestay I have ever stayed at which had all the privacy i could have asked for. The only sounds I could hear were the sounds of nature all throughout. And i remember telling myself that this is exactly what i came for. The host helped us out with some amazing recommendations for lunch as we were heading sightseeing. For dinner we ate some dal tadka, kadhai paneer and jeera rice at the property made by the cook there which was super yummy and fresh as well! Arun and Nikita are also one of the best hosts we have come across and made us feel extremely comfortable. Towards the end, im sure we could call ourselves their friends! Thank you for having us and we will definitely come back soon again!

IndiaEverything was amazing
This is the perfect place for anyone looking to unwind and relax in the lap of nature. Located around 15 minutes from the main Kodai Town, this homestay completely satisfied our need for peace and quiet. The room we stayed in was spacious and clean. The sound of the flowing stream at their property was so soothing to the ears. The hosts Arun & Nikita were always available for us and so helpful throughout our time there. The caretakers Dilip and Marco were sweet and helpful boys. Nikita, who is a certified yoga teacher also conducted a 1 hour yoga and meditation session for us by the stream at their property which was an amazing experience! I would love to come back and spend time here everytime I have some time off. It was one of the most relaxing short vacations ever, great value for money, and we all enjoyed it.

Loved their back lawn/yoga space and the calming sound of the stream that flows right through their property. Both their caretakers Dilip & Marco were sweet boys available for us whenever we needed them. We wanted to book a place away from the hustle bustle of the city, but not too far either and we couldn't have asked for a better place to be at! It was just a perfect stay!

IndiaThank you to the wonderful hosts for the lovely stay and food. The stream at the property where one could just relax for hours and the foosball table in their lounge were my two favourites! The food is delicious and for home cooked food, I loved the quality and quantity served. The nature around is serene and peaceful away from the crowd and noise of the city. If you are coming to kodaikanal, do not miss out on staying at this beautifully decorated property. A great plus point were the good roads leading to the property and a safe parking 😀

Right from the time we booked the place we had an amazing experience with Bohemian Hideaway. The hosts, Arun, Nikita, & Rupal are an amazing team who do everything to make your stay a memorable one and are always available to help you with a happy heart. Balaji took care of us like his own family and the little things that he did made such a great positive impact! The food was mouth watering with great quantity and even though it was homemade, so many items tasted better than what you get outside. We also took Bonfire from them which was setup in their back lawns near the water stream which was such a great experience Overall, the thoughtfully and amazingly done up place along with the service provided with heart by each and every person at the homestay is undoubtedly going to make you remember your stay here forever. It's a must visit place in Kodai and we are coming back soon with all our friends!
