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.).

RussiaWonderful place. The hotel is located on a mountain, with a unique and amazing view from balcony. Very kind owner, always ready to help, provided us assistance with tuk-tuk during the rain. Extremely clean room, big and warm. Nice and tasty Sri Lankan breakfast, lots of fruit and fresh coffee. We are very grateful for the warm welcome, we will definitely come back again.

NetherlandsI wished that the room had a mini fridge, but that wasn't a big issue, since you can keep your food/beverages in common area fridge. Otherwise everything was spotless.
The location is perfect! The view from the room balcony is breathtaking! The host was a really good guy. Breakfast has varieties of local and English food, fruits and coffee or tea, all very tasty!

BangladeshIf there were any mini fridge facility in the room then it might help. We traveled there in very hot summer & we struggled to find chilling water. Also I believe that if I asked to the stuffs, they will arrange it for us as well. Also location is not in central Kandy. So, transportation problem will be obvious.
The view from the hotel is spectacular. Also the stuffs were very helpful & friendly. They guided us to visit different places in Kandy. Also they arrange vehicle for dropping us at Peradenia Railway Station which is quite far from the hotel with a good deal.

Amazing view from the balcony. Very scenic. Beautiful at night. Breakfast was very good. The owner is the best host we have ever found in our entire stay in SriLanka. If we travel again to SriLanka, this would be the one place I would love to stay. Also would recommend anyone travelling to Srilanka to stay here. Great value for the money

Quiet location up the hill with incredible views just on a 15 mins tuktuk drive from the city centre. The host was very welcoming and helped us organising tuktuks and advised what things to do/see. Also made us a delicious breakfast every morning. We stayed in the deluxe room, which has amazing views over the city and surroundings, from the bedroom and balcony and even from the shower. Absolutely stunning!

The bedroom is large, comfortable and clean. The bathroom has a great view. The view from the balcony is amazing and the accommodation is far away from the noisy city centre. The host books tuk tuk for you at a fair price to the city centre of Kandy or to other places you want to see. Delicious breakfast with a nice view. They have a cute cat :)

Our stay at the SkyDeck Kandy was good. We had a warm welcome, got a big size room with a huge bathroom. The hotel is on a hill away from the busy city center but still reachable via tuktuk in 10 minutes. When having breakfast on the terrass you overlook the valley.
