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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

NetherlandsThe swimming pool was quite dirty and the food in the restaurant was pretty bad. We had biryani veg and with chicken which were not very tasty and far too much koriander. The murgh tikka was the worst we had in India.
The hotel has very spacious and nice rooms with a good bed and is close to Orchha. We had a nice view on the river

United KingdomThe room lacked a fridge. The bathroom was basic but adequate. I regret having the rice for breakfast as, with hindsight, it may have been reheated. The credit card machine would not let me pay in rupees, so I ended up paying in cash to avoid a 5% conversion charge.
It was a great place close to Orchha on our road trip between Shivpuri and Khajuraho. The peaceful location overlooking the river and wildlife were absolutely idyllic. The room had a strong heritage theme and could be best described as shabby chic. Good aircon and good night's sleep. The shared tip pot seemed very fair on the staff.

IndiaWhile the big high Bed was very comfortable, the same cannot be said for the extremely low bedside chairs and the equally low cane sofas. Food was terrible. Both guests and waiter had trouble identifying the Ajwaini Fish to be that, the waiter having declared it to be chicken and we unable to comprehend the manner of meat or its style given the total absence of any Ajwaini in this dish. Readymade coffee ordered from the kitchen was a disaster; but the room does have decent coffee making facilities and Nescafe Classic sachets which the housekeeping staff is happy to replenish. Over all, a mixed bag: both vis-a-vis this property and Orchha town. Missed the old voice-over Sound and Light Show at the neighbouring palace; the survival demands of the present-day India demanding new renditions of an already opportunistic and convenient history: so Raja Ram of Orchha's Ram Rajya Temple is now endorsed to have come straight from Ayodhya instead of Haridwar as mentioned in the old narrative, best to avoid mentioning even more startling edits. The elan with which the old voice-over had romanticised the historical narration of Hardaul and his commitment to Bundelkhand's young women has now taken a backseat, yielding to pressing political correctness of recent times, unconvincing and jaded; or maybe, I've just gotten older compared to my earlier trips to this once delightful town.
Old style luxury with a big bed and spacious rooms and bathrooms. Big high Bed was very comfortable. Lovely ambience and clean air: we actually went there to flee the pollution of Delhi. Serious food quality issues at this property can be sorted out by stepping into Orchha town which has numerous eating places of all categories, a few of them quite good, but mostly vegetarian in this temple town, this description having overtaken the small feudal kingdom character of Orchha town through recent history and even more so in recent times.

IndiaThe washroom needed attention. The TV size was too small for the distance. The senior staff kept scolding the junior staff in front of us, which was quite embarrassing. The overall haveli look needs to be improved.

AustraliaCommercial activities on the river such as the many wedding photo shoots on the riverside in front of the hotel ... photographers and crew. are happy to take their photos with the beautiful backdrop ... but not willing to step aside to allow a day-to-day visitor capture a beautiful sunset or the upriver scenery. Also a number of photographers were flying drones over us at a considerable distance from their photo subjects. The photo shoot also came into the hotel dining room while we were enjoying our dinner. Staff focus was turned to assisting the photo set-up, and spotlights were shone in our eyes without any consideration. This activity should have been done after dining times. If this is to be a special place for wedding photography, there needs to be some strict rules applied, and more respect given to the other guests.
I just love the whole set up. This hotel is extremely convenient. I stayed here in 2017 and find that this place has only improved since. Our room was looking over the beautiful Betwa river ... the river frontage is essentially hotel property. The food is great ... no need to eat out ie unless of course if you like street food and chai as a treat as I do. There is beautiful artwork and murals around the village mostly drawn by Gond tribals

Orchha is a clean, nice and peaceful city. It is worth to go there. And if you do, book a room in Bundelkhand Riverside; a hotel with large rooms, a nice restaurant and a beautiful garden with four hindu temples dating back to XVI century…
