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...).

TurkeyAccomodation wise: Nothing at all. A little bit far away from the city center. But taking a tuktuk is so easy and cheap. So so breakfast. A little too sweet to our Turkish tooth.
Spotless clean, modern room and bathroom. Spacious room. Water, coffee tea all inclusive. Great household lady. She sincerely helps you with everything. Such a nice feel. The best quilt ever. Sleeping under was so nice (given the cold weather). Generous breakfast and such friendly service. Fresh juice, excellent curd and banana crepe.

oh my goodness. this place is absolutely charming! The room was hand painted in an explosion of flowers. The bed and the pillows were the best in Sri Lanka! and Heidi is a treasure. She will pick you up, suggest activities, feed you a gigantic breakfast with homemade yogurt and treacle and eggs and more…and take very good care of you. She’s the best!!

Heidi’s home is full of positive energy. The hotel is designed with a lot of color and full of little creative details. Our room was very spacious with a nice view on the lake. Also the garden is very cozy. It is situated a bit out of the Nuwara Eliya centre but it only takes a 25minute walk next to the lake with stunning views. Heidi is very helpful to all your requests and makes a very nice breakfast in the morning!

AustraliaBathroom sink had a constant drip onto the floor - Heidi was quick to respond and bring lots of towels. There isn't a lot to walk to around the area. But it isn't difficult to get to the town. Breakfast fruit and omelette was good. Juice seemed to have too much sugar added. Breakfast was very bread heavy - white bread, french toast, crepe. Ask if Sri Lankan is available.
A lovely home with beautifully painted everything. It has quirky decor and has been curated so this room has a daybed, little outdoor balcony, and views of the lake. Despite it being the coldest place in September (low of 13 degrees), the place doesn't have and doesn't need heating - the provided blankets are warmer than those needed for European winter. Heidi is friendly and lovely. Couldn't ask for a nice host. Would stay again, next time for more than 1 night so can enjoy the region.

Francenothing at all!
The stay at Heidi’s was hands down our best time in Sri Lanka! The place is even more magical and special in reality. We could not have imagined having a better time, truly. - Heidi: She is SO kind, helpful, and caters to your every need. She even upgraded us to the honeymoon suite as it was unoccupied with no over charge and washed our clothes. - The rooms: beautiful, luxurious and so original - The little garden/balcony: perfect for an end of day drink - The location: at the end of Gregory lake, and close enough to walk to the center - The delicious breakfast

Heidi is such a lovely host. Just to meet her would make a visit worth it! The room is very clean and cosy. The bed was the best we had in 2.5 weeks Sri Lanka! During our visit it was quite cold so we got some extra blankets and it was really cosy. Heidi is a great cook and made us exceptional dinner! She gives you also tips about what you can do around.
