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.).

IndiaNothing,everything was good.
The staff was friendly and the room & bathroom was big and clean. 15mins drive to the city center,easy to locate. Pool was good. Our kettle was not working, but was replaced immediately when asked. Since we were traveling with a toddler,we really wanted the kettle and this saved us! Breakfast was good,Air conditioning in the room was just right. The balcony was tiny but served the purpose of getting fresh air. Surrounded by well mainted garden and plantation crop trees.

United KingdomHaving hand soap next to the bathroom sink would have helped (although we just used the shower gel), and also a rotating wall fan in the dining area to keep away mosquitos. Also just a few hooks and hangers to hang clothes would have been handy.
Excellent value for money, extremely friendly staff, great tuk-tuk driver (thank you Lassa!), beautiful location surrounded by nature, nice swimming pool to cool off in, and lovely breakfast. The hotel made my daughter's birthday very special!

United KingdomPool could have been cleaner and it was noisy at night time from other guests you could hear in other rooms and lobby area door being opened and closed during the night. There was also Road noisy and dog barking
Nice location a bit away from the city, pool was nice to relax in, good breakfast. We did cook along which was nice on a rainy afternoon. Good value for Kandy. Staff were very nice and helpful. Provided us with packed breakfast and tuk tuks when needed.

IrelandIf there was a fridge in the room it would be perfect. It is slightly noisy at night but Kandy is extremely noisy in general so I don't think you'll find somewhere much quieter. Just the nature of the area.
Lovely hotel.. the rooms and surroundings are so beautiful. Really traditional vibe. The pool area is perfect for chilling after a busy day of walking. Rooms are really big and comfortable, and staff are very helpful and attentive. Great place to stay!

SwitzerlandThe barking of dogs in the area from time to time, but it seems to be a problem in almost all parts of Sri Lanka... there are a lot of stray dogs everywhere.
A nice hotel, tasty food, good breakfast. Room with classic wooden furniture. You have easy access to all areas by car or tuk tuk. A nice pool, but we didn't use it because we had activities and visits in Kandy and its surroundings. The owner and Gaian were very nice and provided us with all the information we needed, recommended places and tours in the area. In fact, all the staff were nice and ready to help you with anything. We also went to an Ayurvedic massage parlor recommended by him when I asked if they had a massage, where he also arranged a car for us to go and come back with. If you have time, it's worth a try.

Beautiful backyard with a nice pool, delicious breakfast and beautiful rooms with wooden gorgeous furniture. Room had a terrace and coffee and tea. I liked that they didn't use plastic bottles but instead had reusable glass ones. Room was very clean. Also complimentary pick-up from Kandy was amazing.

United KingdomThe only noise that came through was the mosque call for prayer at 5am. Nothing the hotel can do about that. Also, we didn't enjoy the main meal we had in the restaurant, grilled chicken with chips - it was underwhelming.
It was a great room and bathroom - good-sized breakfast too. Deluxe double bedrooms with balcony is the best choice. 👌🏼 The staff were really helpful and although we did not use the pool it was secluded enough to use. The location is slightly outside of downtown, which is great as there is less noise 😀 from cars and vans...
