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.).

GermanyThe hosts are renting two bungalows. Those are very clean and furnished nicely. The best thing about the stay are definitely the hosts themselves - very kind, welcoming and helpful. The hammock in this beautiful garden is an additional plus. I very much enjoyed my stay!

Everything! .... Hansi and Udika were amazing! So friendly and made us feel at home straight away. They gave great advice about the local area and drove us to Pidurangala for sunrise at 5am! Edika also drove us to Dambulla and to the bus stop. Breakfast and dinner was some of the best Sri Lankan food we have eaten - we loved it that much we ate dinner their every night. The accomodation was great - spacious and very clean. Their garden is beautiful making it easy to relax in the hammocks and read the afternoon away! Would highly recommend and great value for money. One of our best stays! Thank you.

AustraliaThis was the perfect little guest house. The gardens were beautiful and tidy and the rooms very clean!! But most of all the hosts were wonderful Hansi and Udika were extremely helpful and so lovely. The breakfast was excellent and I also had one of the best rice and curries that I’ve had in Sri Lanka thanks to Hansi’s amazing cooking. I don’t have a bad world to say! Thank you and I hope to be back!

GermanyThe safari which they organised wasn't special. And the driver tried to rip us off at the entrance. The puppy at the inn ate one of our shoes although we put it on the shoe rack as instructed. That was not the problem, it's a puppy, he doesn't know what he is doing, but at least a small apology would have been nice.
The garden is beautiful so you can relax there. Currently there is some construction work going on but as soon as it is over the whole garden will be really nice to chill out. The breakfast was good. The owner was friendly. Gave us a lot of tips for things to see and do.

PortugalThe lodge is a bit far from the main road but it was not a problem with the owners rides.
The owners were really nice and drop us / pick us on the main road for free (we have tipped in the check out). They also provide us transfer by tuck tuck at a fair price

GermanyWe had a great time at this place. Our room was super clean and equipped with everything you need. We especially liked the nice and well-kept garden where you can see all kinds of animals. The view of the Lion Rock from the garden is very beautiful especially in the morning and evening at dusk. Both the Lion Rock and the Pidurangala Rock are close to the nice view lodge and can be reached quickly by tuk tuk. Right next to the nice view lodge there is another accommodation with a pool - perfect for cooling down (currently 500 Rs for using the pool). You can also eat there if you don't feel like going to one of the nearby restaurants. The owner of nice view lodge helps with all problems or questions. The local breakfast he prepared for us every morning was super tasty.
