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 reviewThe entire house including the dormitory was very clean, as if they had just been built a few months ago. The staff were very kind and showed great hospitality. When I told them I would leave the hostel at 5 am to visit Horton Plains National Park, they woke up around 4:30 am and packed my breakfast in a paper box so that I could take it with me.

Verified reviewLovely, spacious dorm with comfortable beds. The guys that work there are very kind and accommodating, and the Sri Lankan breakfast is great. It's a little way out of town, but worth the short walk/tuk tuk ride for the quiet and the views.

Verified reviewWould have given it a 7 as it has bare minimum facilities but gave a point extra for the hosts and another for the location.
The hot water in the bathroom is inconsistent and difficult to control temperature. Bathroom has no amenities (handwash, shampoo, shower gel/soap, toothpaste or toothbrush). Although not uncommon for Sri Lankan hostels, majority places have some sort of facilitation for these.

Verified reviewThe view from the hotel is very nice.
The place was extremely cold/ it was freezing in our room. Windows were leaky therefore the wind was blooming to the room and we could hear all the noise from the outside - dogs were barking as crazy the whole night. There were no hand towels in the toilet and there was no hot water in the washbasin/ but there was hot water under the shower. The staff is very nice but and gave us additional blanket but as the weather in the area is similar the whole year there should be some sort of heater available.

The only small thing we could think of is that the communication with the staff was a bit difficult. But no reason not to go to this place.

Verified reviewWe found the suite to be very reasonably priced, and it offered a beautiful view. The location is superb—just a short distance from the town and Gregory Lake. The property is exceptionally clean and well-maintained, with great in-room amenities that made our stay even more comfortable.
The breakfast was unfortunately one of the least enjoyable we had during our entire road trip. Additionally, the staff could benefit from more training, as the level of hospitality didn’t quite match what we experienced in the south. That said, they were polite and did attend to our requests. The rooms are quite old, which some may appreciate for the classic charm, but it's worth noting for those who prefer more modern accommodation.

Verified reviewGreat place ended up extending my stay I loved it so much. Great breakfast included and beautiful scenery of tea plantations. Great value for money.
Nothing the hotel can change but it can be a bit noisy in the morning at 5am with the mosque nearby for the morning prayers.

Verified reviewGreat place the beds were so comfy one of the best in Sri Lanka. We had the dorm room and it was so worth the price and included breakfast was amazing. Close to town about 30 mins walk or 5-10 mins by tuk tuk. So peaceful and lovely place
Nothing was great only thing is you hear the mosque at 5am each morning that is close by but nothing the hotel can do just so you know.

Verified reviewGreat location on the hill but not too far from the city. I went for a walk to the hill in the morning, it was nice. A lot of tea work done on the plantation The rooms are probably better then hostel place. I liked the beds and small shelves near them. Enough space. A bit cold but it's everywhere like this. There was nothing to hang a towel on🥲
Stuff was kind but not good with English. Also, why don't you use linen for the pillows and duvets? I hope you add them later, I could see that everything is very fresh new.

Verified reviewLovely location away from the main road, surrounded by tea plantation. Good shower, comfortable beds & great generous breakfast. Staff were lovely & helpful, they bought us tea when we came back from our tour.
Watch out for local taxes that are stated as additional to the booking.com price. My mistake, I didn’t realise & worked out to be more expensive than expected.

The hospitality was great, the staff was so respectful, they packed my breakfast for me as I had an early departure, I was greeted with tea upon arrival and at my departure, my room was breathtaking with 2 stories.

Verified reviewCleanest accomodation i stayed at. Great service, lovely personnel and very helpful. The host likes to help with his dad's tuk tuk services as well, but sometimes it’s not communicated clearly.
A minor suggestion rather: offer tea first, meal & the fruit. They offer this in the opposite order. That aside, really lovely food!
