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.).

Since the house is old and without heating, it was quite cold during our stay. I asked for heaters, which helped, but it’s something to be aware of if visiting although it was August. The bathroom had no shower curtain, so water spilled everywhere when using the shower, which made it a bit inconvenient.
We stayed here recently and enjoyed several aspects of the accommodation. The rooms were big and spacious, and the surrounding area was beautiful with a very nice view. Breakfast was also very good, fresh and satisfying. The highlight was definitely the owner, who was very friendly and kind, making us feel welcome throughout our stay. With improvements in heating and bathroom facilities, this place would be even more enjoyable.

The room was a bit too cold, as there is no heating. Nevertheless, they put some heavy blankets which kept us warm in the night.
The accommodation is located close to the city center and it has a beautiful view. The room was very big and everything was clean and functioning. The staff was really really kind, breakfast was also super tasty.

There are several very sharp bends in the approach road leading to Travellers Inn in Nuwara Eliya which necessitated that our large coach bus had to park quite a distance away. Our hosts kindly collected our luggage from the bus and assisted with transporting those in our team who were unable to walk the distance.
The host family were very sweet and accommodating. They arranged a delicious dinner at late notice for our large group and the breakfast was generous and very tasty.

High humidity in the room but I think it is because of Nuwaru Eliya's climate, so it is understandable.
Very tasty breakfast, clean room and hot water in the shower. On map it may seem far away from the city center but there is a shortcut. There was additional blanket, so it wasn't cold in the night.

The rooms were a bit outdated and appeared to be somewhat gloomy, probably due the the constant rain that we had during our stay. The beds were also difficult to sleep on.
The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful and the food they provided was quite tasty. The hotel also had a great view of the hills but unfortunately our view was interrupted by constant heavy rain. The blankets provided on the bed kept us quite warm during the night.

Our hosts, the amenities and the food were lovely. Nuwara Eliya is a bit cold in the wet season (when we visited) but they had extra blankets and there is a cozy fireplace in the dinning hall. Also, you can enjoy beautiful views, althought we didn''t due to the foggy weather. Overall, it is a great place to stay in Nuwara.

The cold room to the point of feeling sick at stomach.
The room was big enough with a balcony. However it was too cold specially at night. We wish there were at least a room heater in our room. the host and the breakfast were wonderful. the dining room was the best place to enjoy. The owner allowed us to use the upstairs kitchen which literally saved our lives. We got free do ourselves cloth ironing service too.

The room had a mold problem probably due to the moisture in the area, which seems to be a general issue in the area.
The view was amazing and the staff was very friendly. Breakfast was also tasty (cost 1500 for two people, if not included).

People were drinking in the balcony, right outside our room, and this went on late into the night, and this felt quite uneasy.
Staff / Owner was really nice to have prepared breakfast as early as possible. Parking, reaching the place etc was difficult as the hotel is in a narrow lane and we went in a big vehicle.

A short beautiful walk into town from this stay, but easily accessible by car. The views were lovely overlooking the tea plantation. It was a little loud at night. Ensure doors are windows are closed at night as there are a lot of mosquitos. Breakfast was delicious with additional pancakes overlooking the valley. Cash payment
