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.).

SloveniaThe reception had only one person who spoke English - charming but a bit confused. The breakfast was okay, but always late (we waited both mornings for quite some time). All the fruit we got was some papaya. Tea and coffee were dissapointing.
Location was quiet, the garden was nice. 3rd bed had a thin matress and they changed it on our request (at 9pm). They do offer a trip with tuktuk but it is pretty pricy. Later we found a cheaper option on the street.

CanadaThe buildings could use a bit of sprucing up, but this shouldn't deter you from staying here.
Huge room in a heritage building just a three minute walk to Kandy Lake. The grounds are lovely and there are places to sit outside. The included breakfast was ample, eggs, toast, fresh fruit juice, coffee or tea. You can walk around the lake to the Temple of the Tooth and the main shopping area in about 20 minutes. Along the way you will see trees full of bats, many species of birds and water monitor lizards. There are not many restaurants nearby but the hotel restaurant serves very good food at a reasonable price. The staff, particularly Shanta, work very hard and are extremely helpful.

ItalyUnfortunately from our ground floor room we could hear a continuous sound of dropping water which was the air conditioning leak from the room upstairs, a bit annoying. There is no mosquito net so I recommend to put it ‘cause it’s always good to have one.
The location was great! Close to the lake, the city center and the temple. The room is pretty basic which is totally fine for the very good price. Breakfast is good. Staff is nice & friendly.

PolandI highly not recommend this place. It was dirty and old. My room was located just next to the “reception desk” so the owner was constantly sitting next to my door which made me feel like I had no privacy. The sheets were old and dirty, I couldn’t sleep at night because there were lots of mosquitoes…
It was close to the lake

FranceAll ok
There was an issue with the water, so the booking was cancelled. However, the hosts accepted me to stay in the place even though it was cancelled. The host organised some water in a tank instead. The location is fantastic (next to the Suisse Hotel) and the WiFi was working perfectly. The hosts were also very helpful and friendly

Bosnia and Herzegovinain the morning around 6:00 someone was standing near the door talking loudly for a long time, unfortunately that woke us up.
This accommodation surprised us, we got more than we expected. The room was spacious and clean, we had everything we needed. The garden is also beautiful, they served a very good breakfast (you can choose which breakfast you want). The staff is also very friendly. I highly recommend it to everyone!

United KingdomThis property was a real find for us in Kandy! The setup around the villa was serene, and being close to Kandy Lake made it easy to explore the city on foot. The service was welcoming, and breakfast hit the spot every morning. You could tell they used fresh ingredients, and the staff's friendliness added to the experience. Rooms were clean and comfy, and the pricing felt reasonable, especially given the crazy rates elsewhere in Kandy during the peak season. Fortuna is a good bet if you're after a comfy stay in Kandy. It strikes a nice balance between comfort, convenience, and cost. Definitely worth considering for your stay!

United KingdomFortuna Boutique Villa is an awesome Villa we stayed at in Kandy. It's right by Kandy Lake and super close to the city, like a quick 5-minute walk. Booking it was a breeze - no fuss. The location was perfecto. We could walk to the Temple of the Tooth Relic and all the attractions places in Kandy. Our room? Big and had all the stuff we needed. And the service? The folks running the villa were so friendly and helpful. Seriously, just a quick call, and they had us covered. They had some sweet facilities too. Plus, they were celebrating 20 years and gave us a killer deal. Can't complain about that. And the Wi-Fi? Fast and handy. Cleanliness-wise, it was spot on. Sheets were fresh, bathroom was clean, and it smelled good in there. Safety-wise, we felt right at home. The hosts and staff were amazing, made us feel secure and comfy. Our overall experience? It rocked! We're totally coming back when we swing by Sri Lanka again. And let me tell you about the food – the chef in the villa was a wizard. Dinner and breakfast were off the charts tasty. Every bite was a delight. In a nutshell, this place is a real gem. Convenient, cozy, and just plain awesome. It's the kind of spot that leaves you with great memories and a craving for a return visit.
