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.).

AustriaVery nice host, and staff is very attentive. I enjoyed my last day in sri lanka at the ocean view tourist guest house. Negombo and this place is a good place to stay before departure. Had plenty of time to chat with the owner, which I enjoyed, he organised my last Sri Lankan breakfast (despite usually offering continental) , which was yummy and spicey, and the pool obviously was great addidition for the wait till my departure. The beach is across the road, so not far. Restaurant next door is also recommended.

AustraliaOrdinary breakfast compared to what we have had in Sri Lanka. 2 fried eggs,toast and 2 pieces of fruit and great cuppa tea. No ocean view from downstairs rooms.
Liked the swimming pool Staff are great. Lots of restaurants around. Staff organised transport to airport. They put my beers in fridge as there are no room fridges and I needed a cold beer sitting by pool.

I recently stayed at Ocean View Tourist Hotel and had a fantastic experience. The hotel's location, just 20 minutes from the airport, was convenient for my travels. I particularly enjoyed relaxing by the swimming pool, which offered a serene atmosphere. The highlight of my stay was the exceptional hospitality provided by the owner and their team. They were incredibly helpful throughout my stay, and even allowed me to use the shower facilities after I had checked out, which was greatly appreciated before my flight. The cleanliness of the rooms and the overall tranquility of the hotel made for a pleasant stay. I highly recommend Ocean View Tourist Hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming stay in the area.
