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.).

Verified reviewThe room was very nice and clean, equipped with everything we needed. The staff were incredibly kind to us; they welcomed us with a hot tea and also prepared a delicious breakfast.
The home is surrounded by nature, making it beautiful, but you should also be aware that there are many animals around, especially when it rains.

Verified reviewThe hosts were wonderful, so warm and responsive and always looked out for me which was nice when I was travelling solo. The room is the only one there and totally private. You step onto the terrace and the views of the hills are stunning and at night the private garden is all lit up. Enchanting with a magical vibe and the breakfast excellent value and beautifully presented. Nothing was too much trouble and they put me in touch with a trusted tuk tuk driver. Ella main town was only ,8-10 minutes by tuk tuk. I would definitely stay at Treetops again!!

Verified reviewAmazing hosts, super friendly and helpful. Delicious breakfast, different every day made with a lot of love. Directly in front of rain forrest. We could see green parrots all the time. Close to the nine arch bridge and little Adams peak. You can walk directly from there to these 2 places.
Was a bit outside the city. Easy to reach with tuktuk thought (1000 rupies per ride)

Verified reviewAs you may know already, Ella is a very touristy place. We didn't book anything in advance, so we were finding it difficult to find some good quality-price location to stay. But then we found Tree Tops. What an amazing place. We were so warmly received and we felt like we were at home. The room is very clean, with a comfortable bed, good bathroom with hot water and a mini fridge. You could notice that every detail in the room was carefully picked. And, of course, as a foodie, the best part for me was the Sri Lankan breakfast - different in the two days, but both with typical Sri Lankan food, prepared with love and care. At night, you can hear an animal orchestra from the room, so you really feel connected to nature. If you are overwhelmed with all the options in Ella and want a place to relax and feel at home, just a tuktuk drive away from all the activities, just go there. Thank you so much for receiving us like this, we will never forget these 2 days here.

Verified reviewI stayed in this little oasis for 2 nights and absolutely enjoyed my time here. It‘s a bit outside of busy Ella which I personally liked a lot. The accommodation is in a small village and the room is surrounded by plants and trees. It is a very cozy atmosphere here. I had a warm and kind welcome from the hosts, they made my stay a very pleasant one. The room was clean and was decorated in a quite nice way. The breakfast on the terrace was very good. In total, I can recommend Treetops Ella and would definitely go here again.

Verified reviewWhen I arrived at Treetops, I couldn’t believe the beauty of the place. Go here when you get the chance! The view, the beautiful private patio, the thoughtfully designed garden and apartment… the hosts really care about making you feel at home, and providing you with everything you need! The apartment is super clean and very well equipped: it has a lot of room to hang and store clothes, comes with a mini bar and even little details like mosquito spray, a blow dryer, toiletries, yoga mats. I slept wonderfully here, great bed, fresh air, almost no mosquitos but calming nature sounds. Also the breakfast: Probably one of the best and most beautifully served I’ve had so far! So generous and delicious. The owners are incredibly kind, and helped me with Tuktuks and finding a ride to my next destination. Treetops really is a unique place to relax and find peace. I am thinking to go back to Ella just to spend some more time enjoying Treetops.

Verified reviewBeautiful setting down a track in the jungle. Only one room for guests so peaceful and in a way exclusive. Our hostess couldn’t do enough for us, and the room was carefully prepared with lots of nice touches ( mosi spray, torches, Bluetooth speaker, yoga mats ) Delicious breakfasts too.
We didn’t mind the 2 minute Tuk tuk journey back to and from the main road, don’t be put off by this!

Verified reviewBeautiful place nestled in the jungle - amazing listening to the sounds of nature at night. The hosts had thought of lots of handy little extras that made our stay more comfortable. Books, games, mini bar, ear buds and nail clippers, hammock :) They were really freindly and it was a privilege to stay with them. The breakfast was absolutely massive and delicious. We did feel bad that we couldn't eat it all when it had all been homemade.
The place was down a steep track and well out of Ella. This was nice on one hand as peaceful and tranquill but too far ro walk so you did need tuktuk. We hired scooters and that made it perfect.

Verified reviewWe loved our stay at Treetops it's in an amazing setting in the jungle which is very tranquil away from the busiest of Ella town! It's only a ten minute drive away though we had our own tuk tuk dropped off there which made it easier or the hosts can arrange a tuk tuk for you. You are the only guests and you get a large terrace area with garden looking out onto the best view! The breakfast is so good it's the best we have had in Sri Lanka very traditional and you get a good choice! The hosts are lovely and accommodating making you feel very welcome☺️ The room is a good size, with added touches- fridge with a mini bar which was very reasonable, books and games. The bed is very comfy and the fan was fine we didn't miss air con but it's cooler in the night in Ella so just having a fan is all you need.
Nothing at all the hosts have got it very good!

Verified reviewThe property was has a real sense of calm, beautiful birds and chipmunks, surrounded by trees. It’s clean and a good size, with everything you might need, yoga mats, water and wine. Tea and coffee also provided, with a few books to read.
There’s nothing it to like really, with the rainy season brings leeches and it’s about a 45 minute walk into Ella, which in parts is quite dark. My husband and I love a walk, so wasn’t a problem for us. But tuk tuks, can be arrange for about 700 rupees.
