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.).

RussiaVery high to climb up to the hill with luggage. Better to catch the tuk-tuk.
It was the most comfortable our stay in Sri Lanka. Room with panoramic view to the Kandy from the top of the hill. The room was big, clean and light. It has the best shower system and the biggest bathroom, we met during our trip. The strong flow of hot water after all day trip and rather hard climbing to the hill is the best thing in the world :) Big bed with comfortable mattress and clean, good smelling bed sheets. Comfortable AC accommodation - you can sleep with AC turned on. Is was the only place during our stay without included breakfast, but it was not a problem as we left early morning. But you can order the breakfast for incremental price if needed. Very good and hospitable house owner. Will be glad to stay in this place longer, if return to Kandy again.

GermanyIt was a bit complicated to find and it was hard to bring the luggage down, as the way is rather steep. But that often is the case in Sri Lanka, so it is nothing unusual.
Jaye was a great host and very eager to meet all our needs. The rooms were very modern, spacious and had western standards. The bed was very comfortable and bathroom was the best during our whole journey. It was really quite given the proximity to Kandy downtown.

GermanySuch a great accommodation with lovely and kind hosts. They welcomed us very warmly and offered tea on various times on the day, when we were sitting on the balcony. Very thoughtful! They also arranged a transfer to Sigiriya with a super nice driver for a reasonable price. The view was amazing! You can see the city and the big Buddha. Surprisingly, I saw two of the best sunsets ever there. The room was spacious and clean and the bathroom had a proper shower (even with doors, so you don’t flood the whole room while showering). Breakfast in the morning was also so delicious. So if you go to Kandy, definitely stay here!

United KingdomJaye is a fantastic host who was always friendly, helpful and charming. We. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would return and recommend without hesitation. It is a short walk away from excellent restaurants (though we caught a £1.25 Tuk Tuk both ways) and has a lovely view of the sports ground and giant white Buddha on the hill opposite. The room looked as if it was brand new, the bed, shower, bathroom etc were excellent and we slept soundly both nights. Breakfast (we had the Sri Lankan was good value and set us up for the day. Thanks for everything.
