Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United Arab EmiratesAvalon Resort by malwatta is an amazing, very clean, and brand-new hotel (only nine months since opening!). The staff are so friendly and helpful—they even assisted us in finding the best places to visit. Our room was spotless, spacious, and had a beautiful view. There’s also a rooftop area where you can enjoy an even better view, which was a highlight of our stay. Everything feels fresh, new, and very well maintained. Highly recommend this hotel for a comfortable and beautiful stay!

Lovely room with balcony, well appointed bathroom with hot water, friendly helpful staff. Coffee, tea and water in the room. Recently refurbished and in excellent condition. The area on the edge of Kandy was busy with traffic but this hotel was like an oasis of calm. Loved it and would recommend.

United Arab EmiratesThe place was so exceptional ! I recommend everyone to go an experience an amazing stay.
The staff members were so friendly. We ordered the lunch at the resort and they arranged the food at the table on the deck. it was fabulous. The person named Manjula, if i remember. He was quite enthusiastic and he took us around the resort until the lunch was getting ready. He explained about all the places. We felt very homely around him. The lunch was served so well. They provided us some veggies to taste which is the traditionnel foods of their region. The food was amazing. Hands off to the chef, we had an awesome culinary experience. The place was very safe and they carried all our luggages to the tuk tuk. And all the staffs were there to help us out until we checked out.

Technically, I liked everything about this hotel. Especially the warm welcome by Manjula and team plus with the environment vibe. Secondly, the food was top-notch. I loved their breakfast which really had given me the real vibe of American breakfast and there was this one particular fish dish (can’t remember the name) prepared by the chef was phenomenal (I don’t eat fish normally as I don’t prefer it much). Thank you for the wonderful experience and if I am visiting Kandy again, I am definitely choosing Avalong back for my stay.

United KingdomI had a great experience at Malwatte Resort in Kandy. The location is peaceful and surrounded by beautiful nature. It’s a perfect place to relax, away from the busy city. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and had amazing views. The food was delicious, especially the local Sri Lankan dishes. We enjoyed every meal during our stay. If you’re looking for a quiet and relaxing place to stay in Kandy, I highly recommend Malwatte Resort. I would definitely come back again!
