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.).

RussiaVery poor breakfast, quite far away from Bentota, good shops and calm ocean appropriate to swim. Overpriced place and restaurants around in comparison with south of Sri Lanka.
Very early check-in (we came at 7.30 am and checked in immediately without additional charge), lovely area with coconut palms, private balcony with outstanding ocean view, good and clean swimming pool, perfect location for lazy holidays, picturesque rocks and wide sandy beach 5 km long, no crowds of tourists at all.

United KingdomPoor choice for breakfast, food left uncovered with flies every where. The waiters don't understand basic requests,just laugh between themselves. The owner only interested in you if you book tours with him, rest of the time he ignores you. Non residents take over the sun loungers, leaving residents struggling to find one.
Good location on a great beach. Nice pool. Good shower with hot water. The waitress is the only one who could speak and understand english,she was very helpful.

Czech RepublicThe cleening service should be more often initiated by themselves. They cleaned our room only after we say that to the recptionist.
We liked the place close to the private beach. The beach was very clean and everyday ready for use. It´s great stay here with kids. We traveled with one year old baby and it was perfect. He could go everywhere and we didn´t need to be woried about him. Room was large and you can use cot for baby that´s great. Food was very good and staff was friendly but they can not speak english very well. But what we need we had it. So we can recommend this accomodation.

United KingdomThe breakfast was awful, nothing covered, and flies everywhere. The hotel is to far from anywhere, nothing much within walking distance . The pool was unusable at times during our stay due to building work to the hotel we were not notified b4 our trip. There was only 4 loungers by the oil for a medium hotel. The menu for food and drinks was very expensive, double the price of other places we stayed in sri lanka.
The hotel was located on a beautiful beach. Spacious rooms and balcony with pool and sea view

Russia- Breakfast has a room for improvement, it lacks variety and some meals did not meet our expectations - There is only one cleaning guy, sometimes you need to specifically ask him to clean your room - Bathroom fixtures are old and should be replaced. Everything works though
- Spacious room with air conditioning, fridge and a big nice bed - Every room has a balcony with the ocean view - Every day cleaning and free water bottles - An incredible scenic beach just 50m away from the pool. There were like 5 people on this beach at all times. - There are sunbeds at the pool and at the beach. Towels are provided by the hotel. - The pool is nice, our kid enjoyed it very much - Location is very quiet, there are mostly villas nearby, no big hotels. You can eat at the hotel, the food is ok. There are also some restaurants at the beach and a 5-star hotel restaurant nearby. If you need a supermarket or shops, there are always a couple tuk-tuks near the hotel, the ride to Bentota is like 5-7 minutes
