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):
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.).

New ZealandThe location was great...close to the centre but elevated for the breeze and far enough away so it wasn't too noisy. It's basic with everything you need and nothing you don't. Beds comfortable and rooms are clean.

United KingdomOur room didn’t have a great view of Ella Rock due to a huge tree blocking our balcony view.
Lovely property in the centre of Ella. It’s a great location with a small hill to walk up to the property. The staff were so kind and friendly. The room was immaculate with what looked like a brand new bathroom. Very happy with our night stay here.

Czech RepublicOur room and bathroom were exceptionally clean, which we greatly appreciated. We were also treated to an incredible view of Ella Rock right from our accommodation. The breakfasts were excellent, a perfect start to each day. Our host was incredibly helpful and hardworking. He is now focusing on building a new floors at the guesthouse. He also drive us to the train station when we were leaving. We also took advantage of the tea plantation tour and tea factory visit to Dambatenne, which was a fascinating experience and highly recommended.

United KingdomThis was up there with one of our favourite stays in Sri Lanka. Located slightly up a hill in Ella you are close enough to easily walk into town (less than 5 mins) but still feel out the way of the hustle and bustle. It was a little oasis for us to return to in the evening. The family who run the guest house are charming, super attentive and friendly. We loved our breakfast on the balcony each morning watching birds and hearing the sounds of the surrounding jungle. The room was spacious and comfortable and I would definitely recommend this stay to others :)

SwitzerlandWe really enjoyed our stay. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The room was well kitted out, and the location of the guesthouse was ideal, far enough away from the noise of Ella but only 5 min walk into the centre. The breakfast was really tasty, with a lovely view of the mountains.

NetherlandsElla fully takes care of the touristic needs of the people from Europe and the US, so it doesn't really feels like a real Sri Lankan town should feel and that's a pity
Ella is a nice city but much to touristic for my taste. The room and the host and his wife are great (very helpfull). It's more a homestay or a B&B then a hotel. It's just outside the city were it can be noisy (walking distance).
