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.).

CanadaOur room was beneath the sky lounge and music was loud. But only between 7-10pm.
We enjoyed our stay. Staff was friendly and rooms were nice. Infinity pool was super nice overlooking Kandy.

United KingdomThere are very few sunbeds around the tiny pool, marketing photos are deceiving. The few there are, are not in the sun. Sun worshipers will be disappointed.

United KingdomThe pool could be a little larger and it was slightly strange having to walk through people eating and relaxing to reach it. This is a very minor niggle. The sky bar is obviously geared towards a party atmosphere with heavy dance music which was a bit incongruous mid-week and the cocktails weren’t great - very weak and watery. In some respects the bathroom was a little style over substance with limited hanging space. Again these were minor points that did not effect our stay!
This is a lovely hotel. Very new and stylish with beautiful views. We enjoyed using the pool and the balcony in our room was lovely. The staff were attentive and decorated our room for our honeymoon which was such a nice surprise. Breakfast was plentiful and enjoyable. The bed was incredibly comfy - neither of us wanted to leave at the end!

United Arab EmiratesConsidering it’s a 5-star hotel, we found it odd that anything outside instant coffee and tea at breakfast would have to be charged extra. It seems to be common practice at all hotels we stayed at though, so not a deal breaker at all.
We loved the views and the room, comfortable and modern. The staff were very friendly throughout our stay. This hotel is an excellent option if you’re looking to stay in Kandy!!

IrelandNot enough sunbeds for all guests. Our driver advised he had difficulty booking driver accommodation here despite there being availability when we arrived as he was a private driver rather than booked through travel agent (and this apparently wasn’t the first time it happened).
Really lovely property, stunning views from the balcony, spacious , clean and modern room. Infinity pool was amazing. The staff in the restaurant and rooftop bar were so friendly.

Germanyunfortunately, one big drawdown: the bathroom smelled grossly, because of the shower drain. Breakfast is good but food in the retaurant is otherwise rather mediocre. Would still 100% stay there again
can really recommend! Fantastic view over Kandy with infinity pool and sunbeds. Good breakfast buffet. Comfy rooms. Short tuktuk ride or 20 min walk to town.

The room was really big, nice and very quiet. I had a very good rest. Also the shower has probably the best water pressure I had in Sri Lanka! The view is absolutely beautiful and the staff makes your stay so easy. Don't hesitate to book if you consider staying in Kandy.
