Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomThere was some miscommunication between the front desk and the restaurant regarding a breakfast box but this was solved with a little persistance. The restaurant evening buffet was a bit of a zoo but the staff treated us well on a la carte menu.
The room was exactly as expected and immaculate. The pool had a beautiful setting. The airport was in a great location for access to the airport.

We had a great stay at the hotel, and were really amazed by all staff. Especially the front desk is really kind and helpful. The pool and pool bar are great addition and also sunbeds on a natural grass feels extremely nice and better than sand.

FranceI hope this message finds you well. I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for the wonderful experience I had during my recent stay at your fabulous hotel in Ngombo, Sri Lanka. From the moment I arrived, I was treated like a VIP, and I cannot thank you and your entire team enough for the warm welcome and exceptional hospitality. Every detail of my stay was thoughtfully attended to, making it truly memorable. The atmosphere, the amenities, and the beautiful surroundings of your establishment contributed to an unforgettable experience that I will cherish for years to come. Your team's dedication to providing outstanding service is truly commendable. Thank you once again for making my stay so special. I look forward to returning in the future and will highly recommend your hotel to friends and family. Warm regards,

FinlandThe hotel had far too few sun beds in relation to the number of guests, which resulted in people reserving the beds quite early and arriving somewhere after breakfast. Also, the sun beds were really uncomfortable (metal without cushions) and many of them were broken. The hotel would really benefit if they invested to new more comfortable and stylish ones, enough for the hotel capacity.
The rooms were really spatious, clean and had a great view to the beach. Staff was super friendly and helpful throughtout our stay. Breakfast was delicious with multiple local and international options.

United KingdomNothing. Our stay was perfect. A heartfelt thank you!
We loved the large, comfortable and spotlessly clean rooms and balcony overlooking the gorgeous pool and gardens. But most of all we thought the hotel staff were absolutely fantastic. From the moment we arrived we felt welcomed and were happy to be given an early check-in and upgraded rooms by the very helpful and charming manager Virach. Extra special thanks must go to Sudhan who massively helped me submit a tricky online visa application extension. Thanks to his tech wizardry, patience and kindness I'm hoping to spend another month in this beautiful country and I will definitely be coming back to Sentido Heritence to see my new friends Sudhan and Virach.

United StatesWe enjoyed our one night stay but 126$ with breakfast seemed a bit much compared to the other fantastic hotels we stayed in Colombo for half the price. The food options outside the hotel seem to only cater to the tourists and are overpriced and empty. It made us feel trapped.
Navindi at the front desk was wonderful! The second we walked in she greeted us with a big smile and made us feel welcomed. Shan was also very helpful. The bed was comfortable.

United KingdomQuite small room for presidential suit for 3 of us. The room was clean but would need some tlc. Some cupboard doors been uneven and sun loungers seen better days, really need an update. Not quite sure that this is a 5star hotel though! We’ve missed the breakfast so can’t comment on that.
The hotel is nice and in a convenient location. We got an upgrade to a presidential suit but it was extremely small room to my surprise. The staff is friendly and they are there to help. Great location near all restaurants and bars.
