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...).

AustraliaNo gym or chair to sit and do work. Whilst the room was good - it was really hard to sit and do work. The height of the square stool wasn't the right height. The absence of a gym is a great challenge if you want to promote active/healthy living. Please look into these 2 issues..

SwitzerlandNot much to do or see in-house but perfectly fine for a transit hotel. More could be done with the rooftop bar to make it more inviting to stay. It was unstaffed the two times we went up there. Having some tropical plants, Srilankan deco and music would make it a more enjoyable place as there is not much else to see or do in this hotel.
The food was good and the rooms and beds comfortable.

United KingdomGreat location with a fantastic rooftop bar. The staff, including the manager, were very friendly and helpful, and really went out of their way to assist us especially when we had internet issues on the first day. Rooms were a bit small for the price, and the bathrooms could be more spacious. Overall, a good stay

NorwayReception staff were not friendly, only greeted to get document after they were very passive. Didn’t say hi once when we entered again. Same goes for when you have breakfast buffet. Staff are very passive. Not many amenities here for the type of hotel it is. The food is decent, but not great for the price and the type of hotel it is. Expected more. Compared to similar hotels in the area it was not up to par. Could be better with better training, smiles and facilities.
Great central location near supermarket, cafes, restaurants and even hospital. Nice comfortable and clean room.

United KingdomThe amenities were average in the room. There were slippers in the room, but they were not new and were not to keep. The reception staff called us while we were out to come into our room, as our blinds were broken but we had our Do Not Disturb sign on. We requested them to not go in and call us later once we were back at the hotel. However, when we got back, we noticed they had entered our room to still fix the blinds and refill our amenities.
The breakfast was amazing. We even requested pol rotti (off-menu item) and Chef Sanath kindly made this for us.The food staff were very helpful, but especially Gokulan. Nilanthi was also very polite and helpful.

United KingdomBreakfast on the second morning was not the buffet option and we were not informed of this beforehand. We still had mosquitoes in the room despite using the complimentary mosquito plug ( but we did also appreciate this).
Excellent breakfast and evening dinner. We enjoyed our stay and wished we could have stayed a lot longer. Very good value for money and staff service was excellent.

United KingdomThe tea or coffee at breakfast could have been better if they were made fresh or from a coffee maker rather than serving from a pot that was made and kept for a longer period which was lukewarm.

FranceThe front desk did not understand that for a French Credit Card/Visa we need to put in our 4-digit PIN code. We explained this to staff many times. When we left we informed staff it worked in the restaurant so we asked they use that machine to process the payment for the rooms. We had to go inside the restaurant with the staff and find the server who attended our table in order to process the payment on our credit card.
Well above our expectations. Staff was very discrete and professional. We used the restaurant facilities (the nicest quality from all the hotels we stayed in Sri Lanka) as well as the rooftop bar. A manager in the restaurant was very kind and welcoming as half of our group were of Sri Lankan descent but grew up in North America. When we can return we would happily do so. The hospitality was at the highest level.

AustraliaA lovely hotel in the centre of the city in a very different and very interesting part of Sri Lanka. Rooms were small, very well designed with an appealing decor. The breakfast was a buffet - very good - and the staff and chef would very kindly make something for you not on offer. We found at dinner, if we asked for something not on the menu again they would make it. The dinning room/breakfast room is just beautiful- velvet chairs, lovely view. Strongly recommend going to Jaffna and this hotel is a great place to stay.
