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 KingdomThis stay was definitely one of the best we had in Sri Lanka. The location is simply breathtaking, with a stunning view of Ella Rock on one side and Little Adam’s Peak on the other. The rooms are clean and spacious, with large, comfortable beds. Each room has a balcony where you can enjoy a delicious breakfast while admiring the scenery. The host was extremely helpful and took care of every detail of our stay. I would definitely love to return here.

ItalyWonderful Stay in Ella – Highly Recommended! We had an amazing experience at this homestay in Ella. The owner was incredibly kind, attentive and always available to help with anything we needed. He also gave us great advice on what to see and do in the area, which made our stay even more special. Every morning, he personally prepared a delicious and generous breakfast that we really looked forward to. The view from the terrace is absolutely breathtaking – you can see both Little Adam's Peak and Ella Rock, which makes for a perfect start to the day. The location is also ideal: just a short walk from the town center, but tucked away in a peaceful area, far from noise and nightlife. It's the perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. I would definitely recommend this homestay to anyone visiting Ella!

We would have given Two Rock Vista an 11 if we could. Our room had everything we wanted with the best view ever. You don't really need to go anywhere else. The breakfast was plentiful, and our delightful host was amazing, from carrying bags to providing the best service possible. We can't wait to go back again. It was just perfect.

SingaporeThe lane into the property is small and steep, but a small price to pay for the great view! Only challenge was for the car to come in, especially when there’s another coming out.
The view was fantastic! Neemal was a great host, assisting us with our luggages and serving spread of a breakfast! It’s walking distance to the city area for food and shopping.

The view was the best thing. Both little adams peak and Ella rock at the same time ,uninterrupted view. Breathtaking. The owners were very nice and helpful. They carried both heavy cases up the steep steps on arrival and then again on departure. Helped with tuk tuk ordering and advice on when to visit the 2 rocks and how long it would take etc. breakfast was good, omelette, fruit etc. pancakes and rotti on another day. All homemade.

United KingdomThis wasn’t a problem for me but was for my travelling companions. The rooms to make most of the stunning southern facing view are fully glass fronted and the rooms have ceiling fan and stand alone fan but no a/c. In February when we travelled they were hard to cool and made sleeping tricky.
This small family owned guest house is located in a stunning position overlooking the Ella Gap. Fabulous view. Comfy bed and good bathroom. Spotlessly clean. Nice breakfast. It’s located a 30 min walk away from Ella town or a short tuk tuk ride away.

United KingdomIt is difficult for cars to get to the property due to narrow lanes - we arrived in the day time, so didn't mind the walk (it's quite scenic) but I imagine it is difficult to find in the dark for the first time. There's a few steps / hills to get to the property to also bare in mind. There are no signs for the hotel, although the images make it easy to spot when you are close. There is no air con in the rooms so can get quite warm. A ceiling fan and stand alone fan took the edge off though. We had an occasional power cut and the signal / WiFi wasn't the best - although due to the height of the town I imagine this is true for most hotels in the area!
The views from the property are amazing and the owners will do anything they can to help you. We arrived slightly earlier than check in time due to our transfers and we had a very warm welcome and were asked if we would like to sit and enjoy the views whilst they finished off our room. They gave us advice on the local area and made / served us a fantastic breakfast every morning on the balcony. The hotel is off one of the main tourist roads in Ella and central to everything you could need. Compared to other places in Sri-lanka this hotel was excellent value for money and we had a great stay
