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.).

AustraliaThe accommodation is proper remote. The road to the accom is gravel, bumpy and difficult to drive over. Tiring too as it's not a short road. Make sure you have a driver or transportation previously arranged.
Staff are exceptional and really try to make the trip enjoyable. English is limited but hospitality is abundant. Pool is a nice touch after a long and hot day. Small 15x5m pool but enough. Staff cooked meals are tasty and reasonably priced. Given the remoteness of the chalet, you pretty much have no choice but to eat there as nothing else available within walking distance (in fact nothing exists within walking distance) The rooms are stacked on 3 levels in bungalow type structures. Very clean, spacious and comfortable. Some small bugs will inevitably get in however due to the tropical surroundings of the accommodation. You can hear plenty of wildlife around in the evenings which is nice, sort of like living on safari e.g., monkeys, birds, insects. Showers are outdoor ensures enclosed by a roof. They're comfortable and clean though hot water lasts around 5mins or so.

IndiaThe place seems to be right in the middle of the jungle, very clean and looks exactly like what we see in the pictures. The staff is amazing, we had multiple teething issues (we struggled to locate it when we reached as the number given on Booking.com was not of the right person, had to call booking.com support after circling around the property for more than an hour to seek help, the fact the google maps also was not able to locate compounded to our problems) but the staff more than compensated for that by their excellent attitude and additional facilities free of charge.

RomaniaThe pool was not so well maintained, the water was a bit dirty. There is nothing around the pool, so it gets very hot.
The room was very big and clean. It has a very nice view at both Pidurangala Rock and Lion Rock. The staff was friendly and helpful, we had dinner at there and the food was tasty. It is relatively close to both rocks, aprox. 15-20 minutes by tuktuk.

GermanyThe Wi-Fi in our room was non-functional.
Our time in Sigiriya was marked by outstanding service and warmth. We expressed a desire for Jack Fruit Curry for dinner, a dish we'd never tried before. Even though Jackfruit was out of season, the owner prompted to go above and beyond, searching throughout the city after work to create a remarkable and one of the best curries we've had in Sri Lanka. The breakfast was also delightful. The breakfast was also delightful. It's worth noting that the shower and toilet are outdoor facilities, so it's advisable to bring toiletries back to the room after use. The room's beautiful decor and a remarkably comfortable bed made our stay enjoyable. We highly recommend this accommodation for a memorable stay in Sigiriya.

Breakfast was basic and outdoor space was a little unkept but given price it was amazing value for money and I would stay again. As good as other places we stayed in Sri Lanka which were more than double the price.

AustraliaIt was far out of town (which is exactly what some people want). You couldn’t walk out to have a wander as it’s quite remote so you need to organise a lift each time. Also will note: the accommodation is located right in the untouched jungle with lots of nature so you may encounter bugs.
The treehouse is so cool! Big room, the outdoor bathroom is really nice and everything was clean. There was peacock walking across the grounds in the morning with the staff saying sometimes elephants show up! The staff were so friendly and kind and booked an early tuktuk for us to make it to Sigiriya rock for sunrise. The dinner and breakfast was delicious and it wasn’t expensive at all.
