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 KingdomThe only thing we would’ve changed was one of the mosquitoe nets had a hole in it, which I’m sure they can repair easily.
We loved everything about this hotel so much and Lakshitha made it super special for us! It’s stunning right on the beach, they brought us lovely drinks whenever we wanted, the food was yummy and overall super clean, stunning room!

IndiaCOCKROACHES. We opened the door right after check in and saw a cockroach that put us off. The room service person assured it won't happen again but that wasn't the case. Had to complain again on my third day after which they used some sort of spray. They really need to do something for a permanent fix as this just spoils your mood on vacation. Also I was surprised to see lot of basic things missing for the price point. The room does not have a calling bell and you don't really hear the knocking of the room service people. Some of the locks are not working. There is no hair dryer on the room though they would provide if asked. Maybe they would need to refresh the hotel a bit.
Great location right next to the beach. You can walk to parrot rock, Mirissa beach, turtle beach and coconut hill. Two wheeler rental, laundry, restaurants all nearby. The grounds look stunning in the night and you can listen to the waves all day.

IsraelNo fault of the hotel, but we did not like Mirissa. Head to beaches further east for a more chill atmosphere and less crowds. Also, for swimmers, the sea if very rough here.
Incredible breakfast which is included in your stay. Very lovely hotel, room was beautiful, soothing colors, we had a great view of the beach from our room. Sam, the manager, is super friendly and helpful. Great beach area with lounge chairs, although lots of comfy places to sit on beach get taken early in the day. Nice vibe, but on the expensive side.

We coult choose everything on the menu. Time didn't matter. The beach was just in front of our beautiful room with a little privat garden. The staff was very friendly and helpful if you had a question.

AustraliaWe did not know they do not accept credit card. It was quite a hassle and caused us a bit of stress coming up with the $$. No receipt issued either after we paid. It felt a bit dodgy.
The property is right on the beach only metres away. The rooms were comfortable and overlooked the ocean.

AustraliaAmenities could have been a little better - kettle provided in room with cups and mugs ( they sent one when we asked) and a king bed would be nice for such a large room.
The location was incredible, right on the ocean with lovely cabanas outside our room! And our room was lovely, we could hear the waves lapping at night. Breakfast was delicious and included in the price and available all day. We just messaged through whatsapp when we wanted it. They included as any coffees and juices as we liked. We used the free surfboards and also swam with turtles right out front.

United KingdomSlight inconvenience that it’s cash only - especially to pay for your rooms which usually exceeds the cash point limits.
Absolutely everything - it is the perfect hotel, in a perfect part of Sri Lanka. They have got everything so right. You cannot miss this hotel if you’re visiting the south.

Germanyhad a great time there and can fully recommend to stay there (we have been there 5 days). However, it is maybe not best value for money. Rooms are rather basic, for the money you pay they could be nicer.
Amazing location just at the beach. Best food on our whole Sri Lanka trip - it’s so good that you don‘t even notice that it‘s all plant-based. The best feature: you can order breakfast à la carte as much as you like (!) and at which time you like (!). Once I came back from scuba diving at noon and still ordered breakfast, no problem. Also the staff (Sam and team) are great and take care for all issues.

GermanyThe simple doubleroom felt not comfortable, as the bathroom was way too small, too wet (the humidity of your clothes after being in the water did not go away), and the room had no shelf to put your luggage at. The window grilles did not allow a real beach view as we expected. You could still hear noise from the main street, although, this maybe common in Mirissa. The small bed was not comfortable for us. Maybe the deluxe rooms offer more comfort or beach view but it overall feels too pricey as we had much better rooms in Sri Lanka. This is why we would not come back even though we liked the place itself.
The Slow is located at one of the most beautiful beaches in Mirissa, which is just beautiful and has a relaxing atmosphere, perfect for bathing and Surfing. Also you can walk to every activity in Mirissa within a few minutes. Breakfast was best we had in Sri Lanka - for example delicious scrambled Tofu, smoothie bowl and porridge, we loved all the vegan options. Great is that you can order as much as you want and have breakfast at any time. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

AustraliaIt was the most expensive place we stayed in Sri Lanka. Was pleased the breakfast was included otherwuse it would have cost alot as rather small portions. We ate dinner one night which was delicious but quite expensive, especially things like plain pasta which our daughter loved but was a pretty small amount for the price.
Loved the location right on the beach. Excellent service with a welcome and farewell drink included. Very clean room and facilities.
