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.).

We recently had a wonderful stay at 1st Gate Home – Fusion in March 2024. The spacious rooms with Rajasthani decor created a lovely atmosphere and were well-maintained and clean. The people who worked there were really friendly and gracious and went out of their way to help us and give us advice. It truly was a home away from home. The food in the restaurant was fabulous – so tasty and lots of variety. And the buffet breakfast was great with lots of selection and also included local dishes. The breakfast room was available throughout the day for people to relax with free drinks and home-made cake. Wonderful service and hotel. It was perfectly located right at the bottom of the fort and central to everything.

United StatesThe rooms are all different, so it took a little navigating for our group of 4 couples to figure out who got which room. We were thrilled with room 13, a deluxe king.
1st Gate Home was fantastic. The people were lovely. The breakfasts were plentiful and delicious. It was nice to have fruit and water out all day and cakes in the afternoon. You can not beat the location right at the foot of the fort. And the rooms are very nice and well decorated with comfortable beds. And all for a very reasonable price. Manoj and his team are doing a great job!

AustraliaThere was nothing not to like only high praise.
Welcomed & treated as if one of the family. Management and staff were always accommodating, friendly, cheerful & helpful. There was always an air of relaxation plus every part of 1st Gate was exceptionally spotlessly clean & tidy. (A credit to management & staff). Management helped plan and advise how to get the best from our stay. The meals that were available were exceptional and just like home made. Would not hesitate to visit again or recommend to friends and family. Special thanks to Manog & Chanda.

The rooms here are beautiful and complete with spacious beds. There is also a gym, small pool and many common areas with comfortable sofas for reading and relaxing. The food here was also very good and the freshly made cake each day was an added bonus!

GermanyOutstanding location close to the fort gate. It’s a beautiful boutique hotel with lots of details taken care of. Staff is most welcoming and friendly. They help you where they can, like organizing a desert jeep sunset tour for a good price. Restaurant serves tasteful Indian and Italian vegetarian dishes, which are spicy but not hot. Breakfast is very good. The roof top gives you an amazing view of the fort after sunset (and just walk up there after dinner…). Rooms are large as is the bathroom. Just an amazing place where we would stay all the time when returning to Jaisalmer.

We had a great time at 1st gate. We were welcomed with snacks and drinks. The staff was very helpful and always smiling. Whenever we stepped out for an activity; the staff would hand over a bag full of fruits and water. The fort is 5 minutes walk from the hotel. The room was spacious and comforting after all day of sightseeing hustle. We also enjoyed the interesting fusion of Italian and Indian flavors at the rooftop restaurant.

AustriaOnly point we can think of is that some italians might be offended by some courses offered in the hotel's restaurant. Cabonara sauce wasn't done properly and the bruchetta came with melted cheese on top? But not a big deal, everything else was perfect and the pizza really good!
Really nice and welcoming staff, they also organized our guide and packed us some sandwiches for the way! Clean rooms and the first hotel so far where everything comes up to or even exceeds our expactations. Location is directly near the fort but noise at night is not loud or disturbing at all. Pool and chill area is totally relaxing and looks like on the pictures! We even stayed one more night and got a room upgrade :)

Despite a couple of initial room issues, the staff's swift and efficient resolution exceeded expectations. The service was outstanding—organizing convenient pickups, offering to keep the kitchen open for our late arrival, and providing thoughtful snacks upon arrival and departure. The rooms were not only impeccably clean but also tastefully decorated, contributing to an overall delightful stay. The hotel's location is superb, situated right next to the fort entrance. A charming touch to our stay was the presence of Simba, a friendly dog at the hotel who checks on the well-being of the guests. Highly recommend for a memorable experience.

It’s a boutique hotel so don’t expect facilities and infrastructure of big chain of 5 star hotels .only pne thing I felt that hotel is little overpriced but after stay I felt it was still ok. Breaksfast spread is not huge and is repeated but whatsoever they serve us really yummy
Excellent location with and a very warm and hospitable staff. They arranged meds for my son and arranged to get me famous Jaisalmer sweets from city I wanted to carry with me. Decorated my dinner table with flowers and candles and offered a blanket on the dining chair as it was winter. Hotel offers unlimited supply of tea, coffee , mineral water into the room. Beds are too Comfy. Big room size . Room has free supplies of cookies , fruits, chocolates . On top of everything, it’s the hospitable staff that wins your heart . Each guest gets here personalised attention.
