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.).

CanadaBeautiful place, well maintained, luxurious, and spacious. The whole place is well maintained with a beautiful garden, and the interior decor is stunning. Unfortunately, we could not able to use the swimming pool, which is well maintained as well. The breakfast served is really impressive. The staff is so helpful with fulfilling our needs. Arranged laundry service for us which is very helpful.

GermanyThe location is very remote and there is nothing reachable by foot. So not really recomendable for a short stay if only for travelling trough Kandy.

SwedenThe room was so beautiful, spacious room with nice furnishing. The hotel is surrounded by beautiful nature, lots of different plant and trees. The pool area was a nice place to relax by in the warm days. We had dinner two days in a row at the hotel. They served local food and it was absolutely delicious. The best thing about veraima is the amazing staff. They are really helpful and kind. We would definitely come back to veraima again.

United KingdomThe property is cute and homely. My room was big with a balcony overlooking the pool and the bed was huge! All the staff are lovely, very helpful and friendly. The pool is small but lovely, I really enjoyed my morning swims. Excellent value for money. The breakfast is delicious and plentiful, the evening meals are tasty too. I highly recommend Veraima for your stay in Kandy. I'll definitely be back! Thanks for everything 🙏

Czech RepublicWe had an amazing 2 nights stay - had a warm welcome after arrival, staff was super friendly and helpful with everything we asked about - a private yoga lesson, train tickets, laundry etc.. their tuk-tuk driver Susantha who took us around, was also a nice and modest person. Very cosy hotel, with enjoyable shady restaurant surrounded by greenery and pleasant pool area. I especially appreciate a small, but for me important thing - usage of metal straws (instead of one-time plastic ones). Thank you again :)!

NetherlandsWifi wasnt too great, but that’s about it. Just get a local SIM-card and you’ll be fine on 3/4g. Some might find the walk to Kandy city centre a little too long, but it wasnt too bad and gave us some fine looks of the lesser-known parts of town
Great owner who helped us get train tickets that were sold out everywhere, personnel that drove us to town by scooter to score some groceries, pool is beautiful, rooms were clean and the provided breakfast was great.

SpainIt is 40 minutes far by walking (with tuktuk takes only 5 minutes) but we appreciate it because the neighbourhood is very quiet and calm.
The rooms are cozy and clean, the breakfast was delicious and the pool, although we didn't use it a lot because it was cold, it was also clean. Also, the owner and workers are very friendly and always ready to help you. And they give tours for a very fair price! I would repeat there again (:

United KingdomBare in mind the WiFi is slow so if you’re planning to work remotely make sure you have a hotspot!
Naleke and Manju who run the place are so lovely. They helped us book train tickets to Ella and the cultural dance show. Gave us good recommendations for things to do around Kandy and also tips on how to stay safe and what to avoid. The breakfast was insane and the pool was a lovely way to relax after a long day! Would definitely visit again!
