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.).

ItalySpacious and comfortable rooms, very nice common areas. Haran is the best host we have ever had, not only in Sri Lanka. Thanks to his advice our visit to Jaffna was perfect. He also helped us find the best solution for our return to Colombo by personally accompanying us to catch the night bus. The dinner at Nallur was the best in Sri Lanka.

The host (Haran)was amazing, very helpful and informative. He was helpful when we had car trouble and spoke to our rental company for us, as they were having trouble understanding us. He then got a friend to arrange for us to take our car to their garage to be checked over, as we were leaving Jaffna the following morning and had a long journey ahead, we can not thank him enough for all his help and going out his way with speaking to others on our behalf, as he didn’t need to do this. What a kind guy.The staff were really lovely and always smiling. The breakfast was stunning. It is also in a great location.

The rooms are large with all facilities. The breakfast had plenty of choices. Authentic Sri Lankan Breakfast. We were given the choice to order what we preferred. The host Haran was fantastic always going out of his way to make sure that we were comfortable. He even organised a vehicle with an experienced driver to tour Jaffna. Nallur Residence is centrally located just a step away from the famous Nallur Kandaswamy Temple.

The host was superb. Very helpful and helped us out with many things. The location was great with local shops nearby. The room was of a fair size. The coffee served was good and breakfast was delicious. Very traditional. We used the living room area for some friends who visited. They helped with laundry too.

DenmarkThe bathroom was a little small and there was no hot water. But it was fine with us, as it was so hot outside. The seating area outside, was a little tiny.
The place overall. The location was perfect. The place very cozy and big. The room was big with A/C. The owner was so nice and went out of his way to help us arrange all kind of things. The whole house was a really nice place to be and the property was great. The owner provided a breakfast one of the days we left for an early trip. He recommended things to do and see. Just a very perfect place to be.
