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.).

SingaporeTV didn’t work. The fridges were ugly and need urgent replacement. At some point the staff took away our A/C remote without explanation… so we couldn’t control it for the whole night. The rooms could use mosquito nets over the beds. We got a lot of bites during our stay. Breakfast is just fruits and toast and eggs. We preferred to have our breakfast in town.
The triple rooms are spacious and very clean. The bathrooms are good with shower door and all is spot clean. The location is very quiet and close to Kandy city center, only 1km and makes for a nice walk. Staff is attentive and friendly and always around. They kindly let us eat our take-out on the terrace and even provided us plates and cutleries. That was really appreciated.

ItalyNo complaints!
I booked a room in this hotel as a last minute solution to extend my Kandy stay and I was very surprised to see it wasn’t full! The whole place is tastefully decorated and is very clean and in a great location if you don’t want to be near the pretty congested Kandy traffic. I was able to do an early check in at 7am in the morning before my Knuckles Range hike with the nearby legend Trekking Expeditor (300m away) and the staff was very proactive and helpful to help me figure out my next travel steps. Breakfast was served on the top floor with nice views and some fun nearby monkey entertainment. I really enjoyed my stay!

EgyptThe best feature for me about this hotel was paying with a banking card, as 99% of Sri Lanka are still using cash only. The room was quite clean and well furnished except for a small cockroach and ants in the bathroom. I guess that’s the way it is around the whole island. However, the staff were really friendly and helpful as well. Keep it up!

GeorgiaThe bathroom too tiny. To get to the toilet you need to make acrobatic movements😀😀 the host (who was really very nice person) informed me that hotel closes at 10 pm and I need to be home before😀😀. I returned by 12 but I still managed to enter hotel. Then he came to the room and checked that I returned alone (because he saw that I was going out not alone) I got really surprised because booking cut me for 2 persons stay. So I took his attention as a fatherhood care and didn’t get upset😀😀
The host is very kind and attentive. The room with balcony and view is marvelous. The room had both fan and AC. Mattress is very comfortable to sleep. Location is quite central but mind it’s on the hill as many other hotels. That’s why it has perfect view😀
