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.).

AustraliaOur room did not have a fridge which would have been handy.
Our breakfast was excellent. The pool was a highlight. This was one of the last places we stayed in Sri Lanka and it was really nice to have a big pool on the warm days. Our room was very comfortable. The common areas between the rooms were excellent for our group to meet and play games.

DenmarkLower end of pool needs a review had some sharp edges that kids were scratching their feed on Location a bit boring with very few restaurants around but with easy short 30-35 min drive to Yala entrance
Stayed here for 3 nights and we all loved the pool that was very nice and clean placed in the center yard of the hotel. Rooms were big spacious and clean but with no view and they could need a bit of love and needed a bit refreshment. Highlight was the staff they all did their outmost to make thinks comftable and a success for all of us throughout our stay.

New ZealandAlthough there were several styles of electrical sockets, many of them were very sloppy and had to be checked to make sure you could charge devices. Room bit jammed in with 2 beds and no bedside table by the bed.
Openess of the downstairs area where you could meet up. The pool was so refreshing after the safari. Personable approachable manager/receptionist. Great breakfast. All staff were enthusiastic to help out. All seem well trained. Staff organized safari truck and driver for onward travel.

United KingdomExcellent hotel. Stayed 2 nights for a safari at Yala. Staff were extremely helpful, friendly and professional. Excellent breakfast. Good sized swimming pool which was gradiated so it was much better for the kids (unlike other hotel pools we've swum in here). Generous sized room that was clean and comfortable. Beautiful and well cared-for hotel grounds that were very pleasant for relaxing in, and no constant music playing in the background like many hotels have, which was great and made it super peaceful! Overall, this was an extremely relaxing stay and amazing value for money. We loved our stay here!

Stayed 23rd Feb 2024 Another good one night stay on our tour of central Sri Lanka. Peacock Reach was ideally situated for our booked trips to Yala and Bundala National Parks. Rooms were spacious and good shower facilities but weird lighting. Click the light switch multiple times for different colours. We ate dinner here which was very good and had a breakfast package for our 5am. trip to Bundala. The staff were friendly and very helpful. We did not have the chance to use the pool but it did look very inviting and was being used by other guests.
