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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

Sri LankaSerenus boutique villa exceeded my expectations every way. The serene ambiance, coupled with stunning lake views, provided the perfect relaxing getaway. Whether you are exploring Nuwaraeliya city or nearby places, this place offers unforgettable experiences. I should mention that the staff is very friendly and supportive in every way. Manager Dushan and his team Chiran, Praveen, Senith, Raju, and Umesh were providing exeptionall service during our stay. Suite was clean and tidy, Foods were delicious. I am highly recommending this place to anyone.

Sri LankaIt is not what we didn't like but some suggestions to further improve the room conditions. The room had only one power point to charge the phones, boil water in the kettle and use the hair dryer. Hope the management can add an additional power point in the room. The adjustable mirror in the toilet was too high and couldn't be lowered. Not suitable for people who are short! The villa provides good breakfast and dinner but no lunch. It would be good if they could add some simple lunch menu for tourists who may want to eat in sometimes.
We received very warm welcome from everyone at the villa especially Chiran, the Assistant Manager. They were so helpful and attended to all our requests. Ashan, the waiter, always served us with a smile and attended to all our meal needs. Overall, the service provided by everyone in the villa exceeded our expectations! My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this cosy villa that faced the lake and beautiful mountains.

United KingdomEverything was great.
Conveniently located, only a short tuk tuk ride to Nanu Oya Station. The villa is surrounded by many tourist attractions like Gregory Lake and Park, Lovers Leap water fall, Pedro tea estate, and factory. Our room was facing the lake - it was very spacious, and we had a lovely view of the hills and tea estates. All the staff are very helpful, polite and very friendly. They helped us arrange transport and negotiate a good price. The food was amazing, there is both Western options and Sri Lankan options. The chef also came and talked to us during dinner to see if everything was okay. Overall, we had a wonderful stay, and we would definitely return.

DenmarkMore heat. It was very cold. They said they would come with a heater, but they never came with one for our room. It was raining and cold - but that is not the hotel or the peoples' fault.
Location is good and the food was also good. It was a nice villa and it has a nice view from the restaurant / Common area. We liked our night there.

This is the best hotel I had during my visit to Sri Lanka. Clean, comfortable, helpful staff, amazing food, great service, and incredible views on lake Georgy. Chiran was very helpful in answering any question and helping with anything! Breakfast was delicious, and they made me pancakes the last day which was kind and nice gesture.

HungaryMy impression was that the staff is just trying too hard. They were following us every step we took, which at some point was already a bit too much. At checkin I was still filling out papers with a hat and a mask on when they tossed a hot towel into my hand. The gesture is nice, but the timing was terrible, I couldn't really do anything with it at that point. Food is okay, I guess. Breakfast is very continental, I would have enjoyed some Sri Lankan bites, but that's just me
The villa has a really nice interior design, the rooms and all facilities look great. From the rooms and garden there is a great view on the lake and part of Nuwara Eliya, especially in nice weather. Our room was comfortable and well equipped.
