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.).

United KingdomThe rooms could use some updating but everything worked fine and the bed was comfortable.
The owner and staff gave exceptional service - the best we’ve had in Sri Lanka so far. The pool and garden were very good and welcome in the heat. We ate dinner both nights and had breakfast and enjoyed the traditional Sri Lankan cooking.

NetherlandsNo dining options. We had a car so could go for a very good restaurant 15 minutes away. But a hassle. The staff lacks ambition and has no eye for quality abd detail. I feel for the owner.
Slightly seasoned and a bit struggling this hotel offers still vakue for money.

Sri LankaThe room was small, but not painful because they had a very nice and spacy veranda. Don't expect a stylish bathroom, but it is OK. There was a hot water heater in the bathroom, but it was not turned on at the time of our stay. If I asked, they'll probably turned that on the heater, but didn't bother. When I was there (on a weekend), nobody had booked a single room. So, the hotel was empty and I felt a little uncomfortable about that.
The staff was very polite, and the pool was better than most of the hotels in the area. And has a big enough parking space. This might be a good place when you travel with friends and family.

NetherlandsAs soon as we arrived after a long day of traveling the hosts brought us some welcome drinks. The pool was amazing and had some drinks while relaxing there. We did not feel like going out for dinner and the owners cooked us an amazing meal! We had some nice conversations and this was probably one of the best stays we’ve had in all our time in Sri Lanka. Thanks again!
