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 KingdomIt is DEFINITELY not worth the price. A bit lower on price & I would have scored this hotel much higher. Oh and again, the location was terrible.
The views from the rooms was nice. Didn’t have the food so can’t comment on it. Room was mehhh - not really nice & not really bad. Was kind of dirty. Light blue walls I didn’t like lol. Location is TERRIBLE! They have a hotel designated tuktuk to take you to the main road, that’s how bad the location is. And the tuktuk sometimes finishes at 9:30pm. So if you want to go for a late night stroll or eat, forget about it!

United StatesThe power went off 4 times during our stay but it was fixed. Lota of bugs at night so keep tour lights off and doors closed.
The views are amazing. Very quiet and secluded. Breakfast was amazing and they make the best tea ever! Monks have a prayer near by and its a beautiful sound across the mountains.

AustraliaCould have been better value for money - our room didn’t include breakfast or inclusive pick up/drop off to train station.
The most incredible and scenic location overlooking tea plantations and green hill as well as 9 Arch Bridges.

United KingdomFirstly the view is just incredible, even if you don’t stay here you have to come for a drink or lunch (food is also very good!) You can see the whole valley and nine arches bridge. The staff are absolutely amazing, especially Rajeev who looked after us so well, he told us loads about the local area and Sri Lanka, we looked forward to coming back after a day out in Ella as it was so relaxed and the staff were just so friendly and helpful. The rooms have full windows looking out on the best view I’ve ever seen, nice big beds and nice bathrooms. It’s about 5 mins in a tuk tuk to Ella, you can walk straight down to nine arches in 10 mins along the railway from the hotel and the start of little Adam’s peak is also about 10 mins walk. Definitely recommend, great value for money and we didn’t want to leave!
