How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewWe had a 1 night stay. Room was spacious, shower was good, linen was clean and large bed was comfortable, we asked for 2 extra pillows which were happily provided. Staff friendly and helpful, we needed some help with a taxi to Ella so this was much appreciated. Location is good, we wished we had stayed a second night to explore the town area more, beautiful lake and botanical gardens close by.
Areas of the room were grubby like the sink and toothbrush holder, we didn’t use. Windows and carpet were not good either in terms cleanliness. Reception and first impressions were very poor, looked like a well used hostel rather than a hotel. We booked a deluxe room and as the bed and shower were good, it’s all we really needed for 1 night. We paid £30 for room only and our review would be higher if the cleanliness was addressed.

Verified reviewThe location is good, right in the middle of town. The room facilities are OK too.
All the rooms open into a kitchen area that would easily seat 30 people, making it extremely noisy. There were a big family staying there when we did and they partied until after 1am. The manager wasn't able to get them to be quiet! Consequently we didn't get much sleep. The call to prayer was at 6am too.

Verified reviewWe stayed for 1 night. The room is spacious, beds comfy. Yes the carpet has seen better days, but it didn‘t bother us. Hot shower is a plus for the cold climate. The location is excellent.
There is only one parking space in the front. Or paid parking oposite.

Verified reviewGood location and modern bathroom.
We had to ask to switch rooms initially as the bed sheets were not clean and it appeared as though the room had not been hoovered / cleaned properly. The new room was slightly better but the sheets still had stains on. Also it was very noisy from outside as the windows are thin and we also experienced bad weather during our stay which meant it was very cold, I do believe you can hire heaters though and there was an extra blanket in the wardrobes.

Verified reviewThe location was good and the room had everything we needed, also the bathroom was surprisingly nice!
Whole room was quite dirty and dated, the sheets had stains(we let it slide), one of the lamps didn’t work and the carpet was very old. As I am reading the other reviews I figured there has been some renovations done but it was a very sloppy painting job so most of the stuff had paint splashes on it. The reviews said that the wifi was very nice, which was a BIG lie, it didn’t load anything and was completely useless.

Verified reviewSituated just opposite to bus station hence very excellent for people looking to stay near city center.(So the price is slightly higher). The manager gave me the option to see and choose the 1 I like among the available rooms.🙂 I see few bad reviews regarding cleanliness however the room I got was superb clean except for floor carpet which looked little soiled. Hot water available throughout the day. Overall if you prefer a decent hotel with all amenities within 2 mins reach, this certainly is 1 of the good option.

Currently the property is under renovation, so things are not clean and organized. It will take another month or so before it' will be ready to accept guests.

Verified reviewThe rooms are spacious and it's waking distance to center of town. The bathrooms are updated and have lovely hot showers
At the time it was under renovation and this should have been stated during booking. The smell of paint and dust wasn't welcoming. There were no hangers in the wardrobe. The windows were left open on a cold day because of paint fumes but to hire a heater for the room they charge extra. The extra charges for blankets towels etc is a bit much.

Verified reviewCozy and warm place. Newly renovated which is a bonus. The location is superb in the city center in Nuwara Eilya just next to the historical post office and the bus station near by the shops and markets. The staff is attentive and helpful making you feel welcome from the moment you step in. Highly recommend!
