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 reviewWe had a fantastic time here. The team were so welcoming, our room was excellent and very clean, and they surprised us with a flower decoration for our honeymoon. The location was perfect, close to the beach and quiet.
The train is pretty close and runs through the night however the room is well insulated so we didn’t really hear it.

Verified reviewThis wasbest accomodation so far from all the months i ve stayed in Sri Lanka. Staff is extremely friendly and time to time i was thinking about “we people from europe, we are not really ready for that big kindness they can give to us”. Just the stay here, environment, staff, privacy and almost brand new facility is amazing combination of comfort and everything what you need. Highly recommended!

Verified reviewWe were really impressed with this hotel. It’s quite small and in a beautiful setting. The staff were welcoming and friendly and the room was perfect, spotlessly clean and everything you needed was there. The bathroom was huge with a lovely big shower! Large comfortable bed and really good air conditioning. We would happily stay here again!

Verified reviewFantastic accomodation. Lovely staff and great communication. We really enjoyed our stay here, probably the best staff and breakfast we experienced in Sri Lanka. Also, we were lucky that we were allowed the room on the day of check out to 5pm when taxi arrived so we could explore and then shower before leaving. We will definitely recommend this place and would stay again if we visit hikkaduwa

Verified reviewLovely staff, you can tell it’s a family run business. Rooms were lovely and clean. Comfortable bed and loved how close it was to the beach, super central and also peaceful which is nice. We had everything we needed, even offered beach towels and always a friendly smile.
One thing that would add to our stay would be a free water cooler for guests. Lots of hotel have them and it’s great for accessing ongoing free water via filling up our own drink bottles. If we wanted more water than the two small bottles we were given, we had to buy them.

Verified review10/10 we stayed 2 nights in upstairs rooms with the huge connecting balcony and it was perfect for us. The photos are 100% accurate. Huge comfortable air conditioned rooms with nice beds and pillows and large bathrooms with a walk in rain shower and balcony. Big shout out to the hosts who were absolutely delightful and obliging, we could not have wished for more. The accommodation is in a quiet location tucked away from the busy loud vibe of Hikkaduwa but it is a very easy 5 minutes walk to all the cafes, shops, beach, ATM (and wine shop if you enjoy a drink on the balcony after a busy hot day!) No hassles WiFi! So glad we chose this for our stay!
Nothing - everything was perfect for us

Verified reviewThe room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff were very friendly and super helpful.
The location was good only a 5 min walk from the beach - I thought it was literally just round the corner from the beach when booking the hotel - this was a minor issue.

Verified reviewIt was all fantastic and whilst we were very close to the sea, a pool would have added just that extra bit of a lovely touch. Staff amazing and always smiling.
Nothing - everything was just great. If I am being really picky, just a little more coffee in the room each morning. We dont drink tea!!

Verified reviewThe place is a bit more pricy but had very modern, clean and spacious rooms - the best we had on our whole Sri Lanka trip. The place is close to Hikkaduwa beach but is located in a quiet side street. From there you can walk to all the restaurants and bars. The people who manage the place are very friendly and open. If you have any wish dont hesitate to ask - they will figure out a way.

Verified reviewThis was the nicest room we stayed in during our 4 weeks in Sri Lanka. Very spacious, very good quality fittings, super comfortable bed, great aircon, loads of hot water and good pressure. Sliding doors to a huge balcony overlooking the garden. Very clean, the room was serviced every day. Beach towels provided. Fabulous staff. Excellent breakfast. Hikkaduwa beach 5-10 mins walk, we particularly liked Sea Breeze seafood restaurant which has free sunbeds if you buy drinks/food. We also really liked Narigama beach which is 5 mins in a Tuk Tuk or 20 mins walk, this is a much bigger beach and we liked Mambo‘s which had VERY comfortable sunbeds. Turtle beach is also pretty amazing, paddling with the turtles was a real highlight. The Hungry Bug was our favourite restaurant and is only 5 mins walk from the hotel, it’s a bring your own beer place.
It was a bit noisy at night from the surrounding hotels / bars. And 1 night a dog howling for hours.

Verified reviewThe room was wonderful. We enjoyed every minute here. The room and the bathroom are spacious and very clean. The AC worked also well and we managed to have a good temperature in the room. The whole area of the hotel is very beautiful and there are always people around to help you. The location is great and you can reach good restaurants, the mainstreet and the beach in less then 5 minutes. It’s totally worth the money!
The Hotel is near the railway, so sometimes you hear the train passing.
