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.).

United KingdomNone.
Perfect location towards the bottom of a stunning valley with an excellent view with lots of birds and wildlife. Staff were exceptionally polite and friendly and looked after you like royalty. Nice but small pool to soak in and watch out for wildlife. Delicious dinner and breakfast cooked to your liking from a simple menu. A bit out of the tourist area, which can still be reached by a 5-10 minute tuk-tuk ride

NetherlandsNothing, everything good
Cozy room in the middle of a peaceful jungle. Waking up with birds sounds, surrounded by green rice fields and having the chance to see people picking tea leaves is such a great experience. Plus stuff is so smiling and helpful, and their cuisine is simply delicious. Ella is easily reachable by tuktuk and you'll be delighted to unwind far from city noise.

AustraliaThe water pressure of the shower was shallow. The place was located closer to the main attractions, but the final access road was poor, so it was a bit difficult to take the car to the resort.
The staff was very helpful throughout the stay. The facilities were good, and the place was very clean. Overall it was a great experience with wildlife etc.

United Arab EmiratesWe loved how close you are to nature here. Sitting in the pool and watching the peacocks and deer during the day, and listening to the wildlife and watching the fireflies from the balcony at night were highlights for us. Breakfast was good and the staff were super helpful and accommodating. Definitely recommend staying here.

United KingdomThe attention to detail could have been a bit better, like extra toilet roll in the bathroom. The whole place is lovely, but the bathroom of our family room let it down. Although the bedroom was lovely, the bathroom needed updating. The flow of the shower was very weak.
Beautiful location. Staff really helpful. Breakfast was good. The bedroom was a good size. Tuks tuk on site, so very easy to get to and from the centre of Ella.

United StatesThe views from our room were amazing, looking at the temple on the hill, being so high up you are with the birds and eagles, overlooking the amazing farmland. The staff are incredible and helped us along our journey. Breakfast! Fantastic. I didn’t give higher rating only because the room was a bit dark and down some steps that were a bit difficult to manage.
Amazing staff and location!
