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.).

United KingdomSome may wish to travel by tuktuk up unlit streets to get there.
Large rooms, great bathrooms with really good & warm showers! Nice white towels. Comfortable bed with the softest pillows in Sri Lanka! Bathrooms v modern and clean. Satellite TV worked well and teenage kids very happy with that. Aircon good 👍 Great breakfast- something for everyone, service with a smile! Really kind and polite staff running the place. Amazing views from the balcony! We gave 3.5kg of washing at 9am and it was all done when we arrived back at 8pm! It smelled very good and was lovely and clean. Thank you so much!

SpainThe room was super clean, with large and very comfortable beds. The bathroom was excellent, with its own shower tray and glass screen – not the typical Sri Lankan style where the whole floor gets wet. This made it much more comfortable for us as Europeans. The staff were very friendly, and the breakfast was delicious. The only small point is that to reach the city center you need to take a tuk-tuk, but that was not a problem for us.

United KingdomNothing really
Staff were fantastic. They picked us up from the train for low cost and gave great advise about local attractions including getting dance tickets and touring around Kandy. Lots of Kandyan and bhuddist stories were explained when visiting the important sights and stupas. Breakfast had 3 choices and all 3 were great. Room had high ceilings, a/c and a tv. Shower was good pressure and temp control. Nice comfortable bed.

Sri LankaI stayed one night at Terrace Kandy with my family and had a wonderful experience. The view from our room was absolutely stunning — a perfect way to enjoy the beauty of Kandy. The room was comfortable and well-maintained, making our stay very relaxing. Breakfast was decent, with a good variety to start the day. What really stood out was the hospitality — the staff were very friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. A special mention to Mr. Ashen, who was especially helpful and went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. Overall, a lovely place to stay with family. I would definitely recommend Terrace Kandy for anyone visiting the area!

Lovely balcony view and super spacious room, English-style breakfast was a real treat (since we have been having local style breakfast everyday for a long time), Helpful staff, and we enjoyed the property is a very walkable to the lake. Although the property seems to be high up, actually it is very pleasant for us to walking especially taking a stroll after dinner around the lake …

We stayed in a room with a balcony and a wonderful view of the city. The room was very clean and beautiful, with everything we needed. The staff was polite and helpful, providing us with many little extras upon request. For a small fee, you can ask for a tuk-tuk ride anywhere, and they can arrange a tour at a good price. They even took us to the train station at 4 a.m. and helped us buy tickets—top-notch service, in my opinion!

JapanNone, great value for the price.
At just $11 per night with breakfast included, this guesthouse was an incredible value. The shower was phenomenal, with perfect temperature control and strong water pressure, far surpassing what you’d expect at this price point—it was hands-down the best among ~$20 guesthouses I stayed at in Sri Lanka. Breakfast offered a choice between one Western or three Sri Lankan options; I chose the roti breakfast, which was satisfying in both quantity and quality, served with fresh fruit, coffee, and tea. The room featured a large, comfortable bed with spotlessly clean bedsheets, pillows, and towels. An electric kettle, drinking water, saucers, cups, and glasses were provided, making the stay very convenient. The bathroom was impressively designed, with a glass door separating the shower and toilet areas, a high ceiling, and an exceptional warm-water shower. The staff was plentiful and uniformly kind, ensuring a welcoming experience. The guesthouse is set in a beautiful mountain area surrounded by large trees, with a scenic, natural vibe, and it’s relatively close to town with easy tuktuk access.
