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.).

IndiaVegetarian options in the dinner left a lot to be desired.
Absolutely loved the rooms, the private balcony and the pool. We wished we had stayed for a longer duration but we covered Kandy in just one day. This location is a bit far from city centre so you will be completely dependent on the hotel for food. As vegetarians, the options were very limited for dinner but breakfast was good.

NetherlandsThe breakfast and dinner were not great and the staff was sometimes hard to find. The location turned out to be a disappointment, because many tuktuk and taxi drivers don't want to drive this far out of Kandy. There also weren't many restaurants close by.
The hotel itself is very nice. We enjoyed the room and the pool very much. From the room, we had a private balcony with a view of the river.

Sri LankaThe bottom-most rooms in the hotel, situated in front of and closest to the river, had an amazing view. However, there was a garbage smell coming to the corner room.
We booked two rooms with a stunning view of the river. Rooms were spacious & comfortable . Room charges were also reasonable. 😍😍😍

GermanyUnfortunately the food was quite expensive but not really tasty and we had a stomachache afterwards. The bathroomfloor wasn't clean. Unfortunately no mosquito nets, and its quite difficult to attach your own but it's possible so definitely bring your own!
The view on the river was beautiful, and the pool was super refreshing!

Sri LankaWe locked the room before heading to the city. Upon our return, we noticed the door was partially open, with no signs of intrusion. Even after locking it from the inside, the door would open on its own. When we informed the hotel manager, she mentioned that we needed to lift the door slightly to fully close it, which we hadn't been informed about during check-in. The hotel has multiple levels with numerous stairs for access. This was especially challenging for us as my wife had undergone knee surgery, making it difficult to navigate the stairs, even to reach the Car Park area and return.
the room and stay was good
