How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Verified reviewThe nicest room we had in Sri Lanka, comfortable bed and clean bathroom! If you’re going to eat at the restaurant, let them know in advance. Not everything is available on a whim, so give them a heads up. It’s far from everything, which was great for us, but something to keep in mind if you aren’t wanting to Tuktuk everywhere
The host isn’t super responsive and there’s no swimming pool which is advertised.
Dear Rhiannah, Thank you for your review. We’re glad you enjoyed the comfort of your room. Your feedback is important to us, and we’ll use it to improve our guest experience.

Verified reviewAround 15-20 mins from the airport, the property is located inside a lovely garden that houses a butterfly park and an orchid house, among other things. The room was modern, clean, and comfortable. Pasindu at the front desk was particularly helpful.
They seemed a little understaffed while we were there, and there aren't a lot of restaurant options in the area. Our room didn't have any windows - it had a door that led to a tiny balcony.

Verified reviewThank you Mr. Saman for making our stay wonderful! The room was perfect, with AC, a spacious desk, good internet for calls, and great room design. Mr. Saman and the staff are very kind people, hardworking, and dedicated to hospitality. They made our stay before flying to our next destination amazing. Mr. Saman also arranged a late night tuktuk for a more than honest price. We can’t wait to come back to Sri Lanka and enjoy our first nights in the country at Ceylon Kingsmen. As part of your booking, you can also access their butterfly garden filled with different types of flowers and plants. For the people complaining that you hear airplanes, you are 10 minutes away from the airport, so it’s only natural that you will hear a few airplanes taking off. However, the sound is muffled mostly in the room, so it shouldn’t be a problem at all.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled you had a great stay, and we appreciate your feedback. We hope to welcome you again soon!
