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 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 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.).

United KingdomReally lovely guesthouse set back from the main road. Really feels like you are in the jungle. The room and bathroom were great and really clean / well presented and the bed was very big and comfortable. This location has a couple of restaurants on the road and there is another collection of restaurants just down the road. The host was super nice and friendly.

NetherlandsWe would prefer traditional Sri Lankan breakfast over continental breakfast (e.g. bread with omelette).
Hidden gem - amazing little cottage hidden in the trees but still very close to Sigirya centre and al the tourist attractions. The room was spacious, clean and well-equipped. We absolutely adored the pool! The owner was fantastic and accommodated to all our needs.

We had a fantastic stay; the host was always on hand to help us with anything we needed and gave us good recommendations, including organising a TukTuk ride for us to Pidurangala Rock at sunrise! He and his whole family were very friendly and made us feel very welcome! The breakfast was very nice, the room was extremely clean, spacious and the bed was very comfortable! We would definitely recommend staying here. WiFi was also very quick!

GermanyEnjoyed a peaceful stay in a room in Sigiriya. The host was exceptionally friendly, adding a warm touch. Located a bit remote amidst fields, the tuk-tuk ride was a bit rough but manageable. The room was a 20-minute walk from the main road and ATMs, offering a quiet escape. Just 4 minutes away, a different area with many restaurants offers great dining options. The room itself was clean and comfortable, perfect for a tranquil retreat.

The staff went all out to make sure my stay was very comfortable. They were great at helping out if we had any issues with transport and even came to fetch us at night when we lost our way. Simply loved the serene environment. A very safe place, so close to the Sigiriya rock. In fact, we would have loved to extend our stay but our schedule was not permitting.
