Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

AustraliaThis Colonial Bungalow exceeded my expectations. The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. They went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. It is centrally located in Nuwara Eliya town in a quite area and it has a large well kept garden. The location made it convenient for us to explore the area. The cozy fireplace added a touch of warmth, especially during the rainy weather. The bungalow is spacious enough for group up to 12 guests, and the colonial-style architecture gave it a unique charm. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone seeking a memorable experience in central hills of the country. Nuwara Eliya can be quite chilly in the night hence warm clothes are recommended.

United KingdomThey did not accept card payment (I think they did not want to) which is bizarre given the price of this accommodation per night (we paid $427 in local currency). There was a dog that is kept in the kitchen at night which is not really speaking of hygiene. Kitchen was not clean and we did not use it as much as we planned. Kitchen is also used by staff which was odd. The rest of the bungalow was spick and span and clean, but kitchen was completely the opposite.
Great location, as expected, a real British era bungalow almost unchanged, very cosy. Good and helpful staff. Great place to relax.

SpainWe had an amazing experience at Bruckenhurst Bungalow. The house is very authentic. The three guys that take care of the house are very kind and friendly and made us feel like home. I highly recommend this place in Nuwara Eliya!

This colonial bungalow was a pleasure to stay in, from the first impression we had as we entered – lush green and the well-kept garden – to the space, view, tea, and coffee in the room! The room we had was fantastic – it was spacious and well-appointed. We loved how courteous, friendly, and attentive all the staff were. The breakfast was a delicious spread of Sri Lankan and continental food, as well as fresh fruits and juices. Overall, Brockenhurst Bungalow was fantastic - We'd come back to Nuwara Eliya just to stay here again.
