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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

AustraliaNot much at all. Perhaps the bed covers could do with refreshing as they were a bit tired and had a couple of holes in them, but overall, our stay was perfect for the price we paid
The staff were exceptionally polite and friendly. They were multi-skilled, ranging from cleaning, tending to the grounds/pool to cooking the most fresh and tasty food in the restaurant Nothing was too much for them. The grounds were super relaxing with amazing views towards the mountains.

United KingdomIt was quite a long walk into Sidemen village, up a very steep hill. Our room had insufficient lighting, so it was quite gloomy in the evening. The bathroom was semi-outdoors, so you expect a few insects, but there was a LOT of ants! Although the staff were very good and hard-working, there was not always enough of them on duty in the evening so service in the restaurant could be very slow.
Beautiful setting with lush, well-mantained gardens and a great swimming pool overlooking the forest. Fantastic rice terrace walks just a few minutes walk away. The food and beverage was good value and delicious, especially the pancakes and watermelon juice! Our room was a good size, had plenty of storage space and good AC. The bed was very comfortable. The staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful.

United KingdomThere’s nothing I can say that I didn’t like. The only thing that would say could do with some improvement, I got dinner one night, tuna steak, and it didn’t come with any sauce so the food was a bit dry. But that is also personal preference, and I’m sure is easily resolved.
There’s nothing that I didn’t like about this property. It exceeding my expectations. The staff were accommodating and friendly. The location is perfect and accessible to the beautiful day club Koli Koli, and other places to grab food. Sidemen Rice terrace is a 5-7 min walk away, which incredible by the way, a must see! Pancakes were fantastic!

AustraliaNothing it was perfect
I had 6 nights at Griya Valud and it was just perfect, the room was so beautiful and extremely clean. Made and staff were wonderful, such fabulous hospitality that made my stay extra special. The pool looking over the jungle just exquisite not to mention the lily pond and lots of places to sit to just soak up the views,peace and atmosphere. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

United KingdomI am a solo female traveller, so the location wasn’t so great if you wanted to eat out in the evening. A taxi was the only way, or eat at the hotel, which was ok. Sidemen is very spread out so you will do a lot of walking. Being able to ride a moped or motorbike would be an advantage.
Amazing gardens and fabulous pool area. Very close to the rice fields - stunning scenery! I thought I was getting one of the ‘huts’, but was in the Marble Villa. It was comfortable with a spacious veranda. Made, the manager, let me look round one of the huts - truly beautiful. Great silver classes throughout Sideman. I did the Yellow Bridge one, and the one near the hotel going into the village was the best! Best shop is straight ahead of you at the top of the hill - doesn’t look much from the outside, but an absolute treasure trove inside!

United StatesHonestly, there’s nothing I can fault. One of the best hotel experiences I’ve had in recent memory.
My stay at Griya Valud was absolutely flawless. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive, always eager to accommodate our needs. With just four rooms currently (and two more on the way), the property offers a serene, intimate atmosphere, especially with its gorgeous pond and infinity pool. Our twin room was brand new, spacious, and impeccably clean, including the bathroom. The on-site restaurant also served delicious meals throughout our stay.

NetherlandsGriya Valud is a beautiful quiet green oasis! We stayed here for two nights. The staff is super super friendly. They helped us with arranging airport pick up and we could rent scooters directly from them. The cottage is spacious and bed is very comfortable! The shower had good pressure and water was warm. Breakfast was nice! Try the mixed vegetable omelette :) There is a nice walk through rice terraces and farm land just around the corner which you can enter for 25k idr. All in all the perfect getaway!
