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.).

United Arab EmiratesBreakfast could be better with more food varities, especially for cheese and fruits. There were lots of flies and the foods weren't covered.
Great location. Staff was very friendly. It was clean and comfortable. Rooms are air conditioned with a nice view of the lake and green hills, also with black-out curtains for those with light sensitivity. Provides free accomodation for drivers.

PakistanDuring our stay there was problem with the room electricity due to which the air conditioning did not work for a few hours which ended up to be an issue of overload and was fixed after calling management At the breakfast you find so many crows on the balcony if you are having breakfast there and if you leave your table for anything your food is going to be eaten by them. This needs to be taken care of
The Hotel is a 15 minutes tuk tuk/car ride from the train station. It is a modern hotel hotel with all the amenities you can think. The rooftop bar along with the swimming pool was our favourite place to spend time. The breakfast menu was vast. We would definitely come back here

We really enjoyed our 1 night stay here and wished we had stayed here for the 3 nights we were in Kandy. The room was lovely and clean as was the bathroom, lovely toiletries and nice balcony overlooking the lake. The pool area is also great, lovely views, music, drinks and the food was nice too. We also had dinner here which was a mix of Sri Lankan cuisine, salad bar and pasta, overall really good. The staff were lovely and very accommodating - we were leaving for the train station at 6am and they made us up a packed lunch for the train to Kandy.

EstoniaSome sports team members were partying in the hallway - the noise does reach the room aswell. The soundproofing of the door isn't the best. The pricing of the dinner is competitive with Europe ofcourse, but in the city can find better for less.
The topfloor pool is great getaway in the noisy city center - great views aswell. The rooms were very sensibly priced. Huge lobby area. Wide choice of buffet for breakfast. Can eat both indoors with AC or on terrace in the shade.

NorwayThe room was very dark because of poor lighting. You have to get sunlight in from the balcony to get proper light. So after dark the room is also very dark. Some noise from the neighbour restaurant/bar/hotel, but not enough to ruin my sleep in the evening.
Over all a very good and clean hotel. Good breakfast and dinner buffet. Nice swimming pool and rooftop bar. Close to the City centrum, yet far enough away from the noise and pollution in Kandy centrum.

United KingdomThe only minus was due to lack of guests in the hotel one of the nights there was no buffet. None of the staff informed us prior to the evening dinner which I thought was poor. We were informed by the waiter when we came to dinner. Due to waiter service we did not have the amount of choice we would have had if there had been a buffet.
The breakfast was great with plenty if choice and the same for dinner. The room was spacious and we faced the lake which was nice.

RussiaInternet connection: it was a bit better that in other Sri-Lankan hotels but anyway slow, that was just one disadvantage here. And rooftop bar were a bit overpriced.
We booked just a regular twin room without any view, but guys on the reception desk proposed us free upgrade, so we had the great view on the city and the lake. That was nice! :) The room was calm and clean, with comfy beds (and blankets not just sheets!). The stuff was very kind and helpful, the swimming pool on the rooftop is very nice when you're not on a seaside. Location is also good, nearby the main attractions.

PakistanThe hotel staff was very different to certain people. If you are not white, be prepared to be asked questions before breakfast about your room and if you tell them room number twice they will still ask you if you are sure. So beware!

MaldivesWe booked rooms that had no view, and they upgraded us to rooms which had mountain views, which was great because we absolutely loved it. On our first morning we were greeted by a monkey from our balcony which was the highlight for our kids. The rooms were clean, the breakfast spread was great lots of options to choose from. The food was great especially the desserts. The location of the hotel was great. Many great places around to eat. The staffs at the lobby , the staffs at the restaurant all of them were very helpful and friendly.
