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.).

FranceElla is a fantastic place to connect with nature. The room was simple but spacious and comfortable with beautiful view on mountains and forests. Anusha and his wife were very kind and accommodating ; always available to guide us around so we could discover all our surroundings. Good and hearty home-made breakfast. It is a little way out of the main street city center, but this isn't a problem because Anusha was here to drive us in his tuk-tuk, any time of the day.

AustraliaThe accommodation at Ever Green Mount overlooks a forested valley and the hill where the Ella Gap is situated. Views from the balcony are beautiful. In the distance you can see a mountain waterfall and the train as it comes into Ella. The room is tastefully decorated but relatively small. We expected this given the position on a steep hillside. Room was spotlessly clean, bed comfortable and breakfast delicious. Access by car was via a very narrow and steep road. After the first trip up we met our driver at the main road. Anusha the owner was kind enough to drive our luggage down to the road in his tuk tuk on our last day. To get to Ella township you need to walk up a fairly steep hill however, there were usually tuk tuk drivers at the main road junction. Walk home was easy.

United KingdomSo good we came back again! Four years on and it's still our favourite spot in Sri Lanka. Breakfast on this balcony is amazing, no other breakfast in Sri Lanka comes close! Giant bed, comfortable room, clean bathroom, great location away from the hustle and bustle (but not far to walk in too). Perfect!

SwedenThe toilet seat could probably be switched out, and the water pressure in the shower isn’t the best. No A/C, but the fan works surprisingly well.
The hosts were superb - really friendly and accommodating! For just a few hundred LKR they could take you to and from the central area in Ella by tuk tuk. The most amazing thing about the stay however was the view - absolutely breathtaking!

The Ever Green Mount has beautiful rooms with a private balcony overlooking the views of the spectacular jungle landscape including a waterfall . We sat enjoying the calm and listening to the sounds of birds and cascading water. The room was large, clean and cool. The bathroom was also large and very clean. The breakfast was varied with lots of choices each morning, all delicious. The host family are very friendly and extremely helpful. They arranged transport for us to and from the property and they gave us lifts locally although it’s easy to walk into Ella. They have a brochure of tours which was very informative and arranged a cooking class for us which we really enjoyed. Ella town strip is quite busy so it was perfect to stay somewhere so tranquil and just dip in and out as we wanted.

This place is a bit out of the way - it is quiet and beautiful. Beautiful view of the surroundings. The hosts were helpful, without being overbearing - top class. Importantly, if you need to work, there is a table on the balcony where you can sit normally and have a great view all the time.
