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.).

GermanyThe house needs to be renovated a bit such as wall painting. Unfortunately, there was no shampoo and body wash.
The accomodation is near a lake and we took some bicycles to ride to Anarathapura. Hotel manager Prageeth was very kind and offered us a very good breakfast and dinner. It was really delicious. He gave us two bicycles and laundry washing for free. He cared for a took took driver and helped us with every request. Water was free of charge. There was a nice swimming pool with day beds to relax. Beds are comfortable and clean.

NetherlandsNothing really to add here.
Simply everything was great! The whole stay felt like a 5-stars experience. First of all the room was huge, comfortable, with A/C, good bed and pillows. Plus the owner Jam was the greatest possible, he offered to do my laundry for free, plus the free usage of the bike was very handy to see the Ancient Town. Think not twice, this is the best place in the whole region!

Sri LankaSuperfriendly and welcoming staff, rooms are spacious, very clean and luxurious. Nice swimmingpool . The staff is great, they even made breakfast and lunch to take away at 4.30 in the morning when we went for the safaripark Wilpattu. For a good dinner you can walk to the hotel next door, otherwise take a tuktuk into town (10 min)

BelgiumDon’t expect luxury at this price; the rooms are adequate and the A/C works! The location is a bit too far from the centre of town to go out to eat, although we went to the hotel next door and had a lovely meal.
The manager and his staff members, especially Tharindu Kavishanka, are super helpful and friendly. They did everything they could to make us feel right at home. We were treated to a home cooked meal and got to watch Tharindu cook. They did our laundry for free. They sat down with us for lovely chats. What a great atmosphere!

They gave us a lot of recommandations about the main points of interest to visit, they even arranged for us a tuktuk driver, a lovely person as well. The room was clean and spacious. The breakfast was amazing, and they also offered a welcoming fresh juice :)
