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.).

Staff was super friendly and helpful with everything, including transportation arrangement and tourism information. Room was spacious. Beds are comfortable. Aircon is powerful. Shower was fully functional, even with socket for razors! There is a swimming pool in the hotel, which is always a big plus. Breakfast was pretty nice too.

GermanyIl Frangipane is a hidden piece of paradise, it was our 1st Sri Lankan hotel and it was really hard to leave it. Raveen and his team were super friendly and helpful, providing everything we needed: transfer from the airport, tuktuk before 6am, drinks etc. We were taken care of :) The hotel itself has a beautiful garden with a pool, it felt like taking a swim in the jungle. The room we had was beautifully arranged and comfortable, pool towels were included. The shower had a separating wall preventing the water from spreading all over the floor (not always a given in the country). There are many restaurants in walking distance, and it is very close to Sigiriya rock (we walked back). All in all, we had a great stay, just too short. Thank you Raveen and team!

IrelandExcellent small hotel located in a quiet lane. Rooms are very spacious including the bathroom. Nice pool and loungers, great for cooling off and relaxing after Lion's Rock or local tours. Gardens are luxuriant and well-maintained. Staff is friendly and welcoming. Breakfast is huge, lots of fruit and fresh juices. Helped us with onward travel. Lion's Rock is only a 15 minute walk to entrance. Several nearby restaurants including the superb Kenoli. Very highly recommended.

We had an incredibly relaxing stay at this beautiful accommodation. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable for the three of us with excellent hot water. The property was really well located to Sigirya and Pidurungala and we took a day trip to Polonnaruwa. The breakfasts were great and there were a number of places to eat a short walk away. Staff were warm and friendly and happy to help with all our requests. The garden felt like a beautiful oasis and retreat after a morning of sightseeing in the sun. Would definitely come back.
