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.).

United StatesA really nice, modern boutique hotel in Kandy, so close to the Temple of the Tooth that we could see part of the temple complex from our French balcony. Excellent staff, really good food, clean and large rooms/bathrooms. Maybe not the cheapest hotel around, but I think the quality was definitely worth it. Would recommend to anyone looking to explore Kandy and the surrounding areas.

It is a beautiful hotel with a wonderful design in the City Centre. The food was very good and tasty. Also the staff were very kind and welcoming.

GermanyThe room prices during the festival were really high.
We stayed for 1 night in the suite (2 adults/2 kids) during the Esala Perahera which passed directly in front of the hotel. The breakfast was outstanding! The room was very spacious and very clean. The hotel is located close to the temple and very convenient for exploring the surroundings. Definitly a recommendation

United KingdomLocation of this hotel is brilliant very near the sacred tooth temple. The staff could not have been nicer and were incredibly friendly and helpful. Was spotlessly clean and the room was fantastic with all the facilities we could need including an iron and ironing board. Also did our laundry at a very reasonable price. Breakfast was nice and we ate here one night and the food was good although they do not serve alcohol at this hotel. Oasis of calm on a very busy city, was always a pleasure to go bs m to this hotel.

ItalyOnly two small issues, we got the suite with the private pool, unfortunately the water was ice cold so the kid and I couldn’t really enjoy bathing in it,which is a pity considering we got the room for that reason. Another issue was the toilet faucet was leaking so in the morning our bathroom was half flooded, so the water must be closed at night,
Central location very comfortable spot to visit the city center, hotel is very nice, staff very friendly, nice complete breakfast and food at the restaurant was also nice, staff let us dine quite late after the Perahara parade, and we really appreciated it since we could dine comfortably next to our room at a late time with our kid.

United KingdomDoes not have a bar nor serve alcohol, we were advised due to the proximity to the temple.
The location and quality of this hotel are a hard mix to beat. We were able to explore Kandy on foot and easily arrange tours of the surrounding area (independently sourced). The room was fantastic and the gym was small but had all that was needed.

United KingdomSadly the spa was closed. It didn’t make much of a difference to our stay but it would’ve been useful to know about before arrival.
The location puts you right in the heart of things and yet it still manages to provide a peaceful setting. Staff couldn’t do enough to help. They really were superb, as were the breakfasts. Great value for money - can highly recommend.

Staff very attentive and very helpful. We had break and dinner on our two day stay and it was very good. Close to everything in the city. There’s no bar because it’s in the temple district, so we went to the Royal Hotel, 2 min walk where we enjoyed a few drinks before returning to The Radh for dinner.

We stayed at the hotel as a family from July 15 to 18, 2024. The hotel has a very good location in the city center. The room and the hotel are very clean, the service is at the highest level, very tasty and varied breakfasts. Initially we were put in room 209, but early in the morning, at 5 am, mf heard that some animal fell through the vent and was crying pitifully. We thought it was a bird. Notified the nice girl at the front desk. We were moved to room 409 with a gorgeous view and the hotel staff started the rescue operation. After lunch the poor animal was pulled out of the ventilation, it turned out to be a CAT. Huge respect to the hotel staff for the high service and love not only to the hotel guests, but also to the animals)))))
