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.).

CroatiaAll was great
Amazing hotel if you want to chill, relax by the huge 100m pool or use the spa (which was one the best I had in Sri Lanka). It is very quiet perfect for relaxing before/after flight as it is close to Colombo airport, but often you can hear planes landing. Staff is extremely nice and welcoming, although food service is sometimes slow. Food menus are okay, but beware the menu is somewhat "healthy" so missing typical hotel comfort food. The room is really large, bed comfy. I had the large outside bathroom with both shower and a bathtub. French press coffee, real milk and water provided. There is no TV though (I did not need it at all)

AustraliaA guide to Negombo would have been good, with restaurant recommendations, cultural sites and places of interest, that sort of thing.
This was the first hotel designed by Geoffrey Bawa (1966) and Jetwing have done a wonderful job at preserving it. Great food, a 100-metre swimming pool and the Luxury Terrace Room has an indoor-outdoor bathroom that together with an expansive bedroom, makes it the perfect hotel suite. Also love that there are no TV's in the rooms. And free yoga classes morning and afternoon with an excellent instructor!

FranceAn absolutely exceptional stay in a stunning setting, combining elegance and well-being. We loved enjoying the on-site facilities: a restaurant with exquisite flavors, breathtaking views, and heavenly massages. The staff are exceptionally kind, always attentive, and full of thoughtful touches. A true haven of serenity, perfect for recharging.

Sri LankaVery peaceful and relaxing hotel, and an amazing spa (shoutout to Nuwan and Minoli our excellent massage therapists). Friendly and helpful staff, and great selection at the hotel restaurant. Spacious and very clean rooms - not to forget the amazingly comfortable beds! Something to be mindful about - the occasional airplane will pass over the hotel since it’s relatively close to the airport. It didn’t disturb us, but it might be something to keep in mind when booking the property.

IndiaExceptional property. A simply serene getaway. The room was absolutely fabulous. And just oozed relaxation. The pool and pool area was very well appointed and the 100 meters pool was a sight to behold. Had the best experience at their spa with massages from Nuwan and Sunitha. The restaurant overseeing the lagoon had the best view with fresh and superb quality food throughout the day.

United Arab EmiratesThe food offered at breakfast and dinner was well prepared, very flavourful and pleasingly presented. The choices were plentiful for any type of palate and preference. The restaurant staff was very friendly and attentive. The front desk team was extremely polite and professional, solving my problem immediately and with a smile. The spa receptionist made me feel comfortable the minute I arrived and the spa therapist did an amazing job to release my muscle tensions.

SwitzerlandThe only point of criticism is the service at the pool. Depending on who's on duty, there's simply no one there for extended periods.

BelgiumIn general the drinks take a lot of time to serve (even just a bottle of water). We were a bit disappointed with the massage but the hotel offered a 30min free session which we appreciated a lot. The wifi (but you're here to relax :) ) is slow and unstable.
The hotel is very peaceful and quiet. What we liked is that you have both the lagoon and sea side. Very relaxing environment. VERY long swimming pool (100m!) with shaded sitting areas around the pool. The food is delicious.
