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.).

Sri LankaOur experience was absolutely wonderful. Everything was exactly as described. Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised to find that the room exceeded our expectations. It was clean, spacious, and well-maintained, and the washroom was spotless. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. This stay was far above our expectations, and we will definitely be returning.

CanadaWe loved the quiet location of this affordable riverside villa, among the rice paddies. Only a few minutes stroll to a main road with lots of tuktuks and buses to take us to major sights, restaurants and shopping. Spacious, clean rooms with comfortable beds, on demand hot water, satellite tv, good wifi and electric kettle. Delightful owner Hashan prepared delicious low sodium breakfasts and dinners for us at a reasonable cost. He was exceptionally helpful in meeting all our needs, including laundry, cell phone repair, transfers, a tour of the ancient city, and a trip to view wildlife in the national park. Highly recommended!

ColombiaThe WiFi was a little slow at some moments, still I could do my work.
Nice hotel next to a water creek, a very relaxed atmosphere, kind and attentive host and personnel, delicious meals, comfy bed, hot water, AC worked perfectly, decent WiFi. It was 10 minutes by tuk-tuk to the city center and the Ancient City. Hasan was always checking if everything was okay, his wife and Hasan himself cooked delicious meals for me. Also, Hasan told me what to visit in the Ancient City, and arranged a safari and a day-trip to Polonnaruwa for me, which was very convenient.

The room was incredibly spacious, offering more than enough room for a whole family, . The affordability of the prices was a pleasant surprise, especially considering that all our basic needs were taken care of. Our stay was exceptionally comfortable, and the room was a perfect retreat after a day of exploring Anuradhapura. The staff at Divine Villa were not only friendly but also incredibly helpful throughout our stay. Their warmth and willingness to assist made our visit to Anuradhapura even more memorable. If you're looking for a welcoming and comfortable stay that won't break the bank, this hotel is an excellent choice.

NetherlandsWe really loved our stay at Divine Villa. Hashan and his wife are the most generous hosts and will do anything to make your stay comfortable. We even got a free room upgrade! The room was spacious, luxurious and very clean with a nice ‘jungle’ view. The beds are very comfy as well. Every morning we enjoyed a delicious breakfast, and they made us dinner which was also very tasty! We were sad to leave the place, because it was so nice and calm. When we left, Hashan even washed our tuktuk because of mud inside. Hashan also gave us a lot of information and advice about the area, activities and our Sri Lanka itinerary in general. Would very much recommend! :)
