Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

PakistanFood service was extremely slow. One hour wait for simple eggs. I understand everything is made from scratch but kitchen time can be faster.
The staff especially Malik was so helpful. The guards at night super friendly. It was like home away from home. Impeccable views facing Ahangama beach. There are three very friendly dogs on the property.

Very clean facilities and extremely attentive staff - they go out of their way to make sure you're comfortable. As there was some construction going on at the property, they contacted me ahead of time to let me know and even gave me a complimentary upgrade, that kind of proactive attitude is always appreciated. They are true to who they are and how they present themselves online, a lovely place with an amazing view.

MaldivesThis hotel offers breathtaking views that truly elevate the experience. From the attentive staff to the beautifully appointed rooms, every detail contributes to an unforgettable getaway. The rooftop bar is a fantastic spot to unwind, and the sunset views are undoubtedly the highlight of our trip. It’s the perfect place to relax and soak in the beauty of Sri Lanka.

South AfricaLighthouse is situated right on the water's edge with incredible views and a number of surf options either right out front or within a short walking distance. They were incredibly accommodating and kind with us and we'd highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a sea view, perfect sunset spot and very cool people (and doggos and kitties) to meet and hang out with.

Not to forget the super friendly house mascotas. I also recommend you book a massage with them, they have great massage therapists.

United KingdomAs a hotel it’s perfect, but it does sometimes feel like a shared experience with the rooftop. Music goes off at 10, but often still a fair amount of noise until 11. We had multiple times people come and sit on the seats outside the room whilst we were going to sleep, so doesn’t feel completely private. A fridge and toiletries would be good to provide too. AC was not the most powerful
The property is incredible, the best place to watch sunset on the south coast. Simple, but beautifully done, this place is great for surfers, you can jump off the beach straight into the waves for sunrise.

IsraelPay attention to the exchange rate the hotel claims that they have to add. Sums up to 15% more than we booked it for!! Reading the reviews it seems that this is something the hotel does on regular basis, we didn't encounter this issue in any other hotel we stayed in.
