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 LankaNothing about the property or the service. Just that the rain (yala monsoon) ruined it tho. And if there was a restaurant for all three meals with a halal menu would be exceptional
The rooms were great, clean and well maintained… bed was very comfortable. Nothing bad to say. We got the room with the Mountain View which was perfect. The staffs were very polite and helpful (Mr Varun and Shehan). We enjoyed our stay, we played table tennis and Carrom as well as enjoyed the pool. For the price this is 100% worth it.

United KingdomThe pool could do with a clean. It is on a steep hill, you can walk to Kandy's attractions from the hotel, it takes about 1/2 hour. We walked into Kandy in the morning and took a tuk tuk home which cost very little.
The hotel was very nice. It was clean and the room was spacious and had a balcony overlooking the mountains. The breakfast was not included but was very nice and worth the extra money.

IrelandNo complaints, I would recommend staying here if you're in Kandy.
Huge room, I was pleasantly surprised that this room surpassed my expectations and was even nicer than the photos. Beautiful big balcony with nice view of Kandy. Welcome drink delivered to my door. Staff were friendly and helpful. Good location just a shirt walk from the lake etc. Bed was very comfortable. Nice pool on rooftop too. Excellent value for money.

GermanyThe staff is really friendly. The only problem is that they're trying to rip you off when paying for the accomodation. Watch out for a scam and be ready to discuss for a while when checking out. Besides that everything was perfect.
The view from the balcony was amazing. The rooms are big, clean and bright. The pool on the rooftop is also clean and has a nice view.

NetherlandsIt’s a bit further away, but we we’re okay with that and walked a lot, but if you can’t you’ll need a tuktuk
We stayed there for one night, it’s all still pretty new so the bathroom and the room itself are in good condition and we’re neat and the view of the room was amazing on Kandy was great too.

South AfricaThe sheets looked a little bit old but other than that it was clean and pleasant.
The pool was amazing in the heat just to cool off during the day and the location was near a Main Street so easily accessible for tuk tuk and by foot. The views are beautiful from the top roof and the little balcony’s on each room are fantastic aswell.

United KingdomGreat location, right on the edge of Kandy, so away from the bar noise and traffic. Lovely views across the mountains. It's a great place to do some walking, and viewing a few temples, waterfalls etc.. The staff where very helpful and the check-in was very easy. The roof top pool was a bonus and great after a sweaty walk in the jungle.
