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.).

SpainI thought that payment it will be taken from my account before arrive, but it wasn’t, so we didn’t manage to have that amount of cash. But then they allow to us to go to the room and accommodate ourselves, and to get the rest of payment, but before that they called a few times to the room reminding the pending payment, it was so annoy. Plus I requested to have some banana around 5.30am as we woke up to see sunrise Taj Mahal views, and the refused to give it to me, it would be charged 170rp extra, so do not make any sense if we will be coming back for breakfast time.

AustraliaThe rain - but you cant blame the hotel for that!
Great location approximately 500 meters from the Taj Mahal. As with our other hotel experiences is India, the staff were very good, the place clean and overall a great experience, Unfortunately, due to rain we didn't get to experience the rooftop area which offers a great view of the Taj Mahal.

United KingdomNeeds refurbishment, two star
This is not a four star hotel, very dated and need of refurbishment, tatty, with some works were taking place on the roof while were there, view of Taj is distant and obscured and only available from the very top of the roof. Restaurant passable,. We arranged guide around the Taj, but all he seemed interested in getting us back to the hotel shop to earn commission on any purchases. But it is walking distance to the Taj.

United KingdomNo fridge in room, though it was listed in ammenities. As we were only staying 3 nights it wasn't that important, so I didn.t ask reception. Restaurant doesn't serve alcohol. Again not the end of the world, but it might be useful to mention in the listing. Room aircon could have been cooler, as it was July. I did advise reception, and it did improve a little, but I still would have liked it cooler. Wifi not the best, but functional.
Fantastic location for the Taj Mahal. Very good value for money. Rooftop restaurant was great value and food quality excellent.

SpainThe pool seems to be unclean; the water was cloudy. The restaurant seemed to be very good but our experience was very poor. We order three different dishes and they were not looking as fresh made. The food was not OK for a 4 star hotel. We wanted to hired a guide for a morning tour to Taj Mahal amd ask to the lady at reception. She offer us two options: English visit for 1500 rupies or Spanish visit for 1800. We paid there and the guide was waiting for us next day at 5.30. We went with him to the Taj and he start explaining us some things about it. His Spanish was terrible; he only knew some sentences that repeated continuosly and don't gave us any interesting information or curiosities about the Taj. His Spanish was also hard to understand. And he spent with us only 1 hour and 30 minutes. The worst experience with a guide in all our journey of 18 days.
Great location, very cloae to the east gate to Taj Majhal. Nice room and nice bathroom with some facilities. Nice terrace.

United KingdomIf I'm being picky, the pool area could be a little better with a table maybe and better furniture. But I'm being picky because for the price you pay this is an outstanding hotel.
This hotel is walking distance to the Taj - you cannot get better for location. The staff were very friendly and willing to help. We didn't take them up on any taxi or tour offers, but they were offered and not pushed. The room was a bit small but fine for two nights, super clean and bathroom was decent. Water provided, albeit in plastic bottles. Pool was lovely, furniture a bit tired but it was clean. There's some work going on at the terrace; that didn't affect us though, and it will probably make it even better up there. The view is just amazing, and you can see the Taj! Breakfast was nice, lunch average but dinner was really good. Good laundry service. The value for money was excellent.

United KingdomLocation is very good, walk-able from the Taj Mahal. Hotel is good too. But when we booked the executive room, booking.com site did not state that our room will be in a basement. So it was kind of a shock to find that.

IrelandThe beds in our room were on the slightly harder side and the decor is some areas of the hotel needed updating. However, it was excellent value for money and the location was perfect.
The manager OP Yadav, Danish and Sunil were all extremely attentive and helpful during our stay. Even whilst we were exploring Agra, Danish was available and answering questions for us via WhatsApp. We also booked our journey to Jaipur with the help of staff. The food in the restaurant was delicious and the staff that served us were very attentive. The pool was nice and the location could not have been better. Overall, we were very comfortable and felt very safe and looked after in the hotel.
