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 reviewA very pleasant place for vacation as well as for tourism. Close to Sigiriya Rock as well as Damdulla. The family was very kind and responsive, always ready to help us in any way they could. The room was spacious, clean and had everything we needed.

Verified reviewWe can’t recommend this place enough. You start each morning with amazing Sri Lankan breakfast. Every day you get a litre of bottled water and plenty of fruits. We basically always left with some extra food as a take away for the rest of the day. There is no better way to experience domestic breakfast than this. The place was really clean and there was unlimited hot water with great pressure. You can choose whether to use an AC or a fan, or even a both. WiFi was also great. There are plenty of restaurants around within 15min walking distance and the rest are just a 5 min away with a TukTuk which will cost you no more than 2$ for one way. The owners are always there to help you with any informations and they are so kind that we felt like a part of the family during the whole stay. It was really hard to leave. 10/10 Much love!
we are very happy for your recommendation.Thank you very much.

Verified reviewThe garden is beautiful and the room was clean and spacious. The room had ac which was nice given the heat. The bed was very comfortable and the owners are the sweetest people. We got fresh coconut when we arrived which they cut from their own trees. The owner lend us his moped for a reasonable price, which was great to get around town, to lion’s rock and to the lake.
The wifi wasn’t so good.
Thank you so much .

Verified reviewWonderful breakfasts - fresh fruit and homemade local specialties. Sistra and his charming wife will also provide quite outstanding evening meals on request. The two evening meals I had here were definitely the best I had anywhere in Sri Lanka ( and food in Sri Lanka is delicious everywhere) And the garden is beautiful and peaceful, yet only 5 minutes from Sigiriya rock. Only 2 delightful bungalows, and exceptional value. You won’t be disappointed I assure you. 👏
I loved everything and wish that I could stay much longer.
Thank you so much sir. Come again.
