How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Actually the road leading to the hotel is very delapidated condition and needs a urgent repair .Otherwise sooner or later there will be tyre damages in the vehicles.

Verified reviewDuring my stay at the hotel, the care taker, Subash was very cooperative and nicely behaved person. He was an allrounder doing all work himself.
To reach the property it was bit difficult.

Verified reviewWe were a group of 6, so we had the entirety of one of the apartments. We liked the location and sitting on the balcony having cups of tea from the plantation we visited along the way whilst soaking up the views of the mountains. Easy walk into town and to the main attractions, and the hosts were very friendly throughout, making us an early morning breakfast for when we left at 5am to visit the plains.

Verified reviewStaff was very good and attentive. Breakfast was good and on time as requested.
Road to reach the hotel is not very good and almost need a four wheel drive. Not enough space for 2 cars to pass. Bathrooms were moldy and no air flow in the rooms or bathroom.

Verified reviewThe people are very kind and helpful like everyone in Sri Lanka. They offered a traditional breakfast and a western one, we enjoyed the diversity.
I booked the hotel knowing it had 3 stars, was a little worn out but seemed perfect for a budget trip, however, the level of cleanliness was very rudimentary, more like lacking. We are not fussy or pretentious people, we want a comfortable bed and a clean room. This truly proved to be a disappointment. I hope the host will focus more on keeping the place clean because they truly are kind and lovely people.

Verified reviewThe staffs were nice, the local breakfast was great. The view was great also.
It is damn too far from the main road, too high in the hills. It's VERY EXHAUSTING to go up there on foot. The road isn't that good. In Nuwara Eliya, there's always cold weather, the room didn't have a heater. It'd have been nice to have one.
