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...).

PeruIt's a place with an incredible view! It's a bit far from the center but you can take a tuk tuk and that's it! The room was very clean, the breakfast was very good for the price. The staff was very friendly at all times. They helped me get a tuk tuk to take me to the station and at night they recommended where to have dinner.

United KingdomA little out of the centre - but in some ways that’s a plus plus
What a fabulous find - we went on the reviews and we were very pleased - in fact blown away- the family organised Koru ( dads) tuk from the train station - he then waited for us to shower and took us to a restaurant He also took us and collected us every night - on one day we used his local noodle to visit the botanical gardens ( fabulous) Breakfast served in the terrace with a view was wonderful. Everything was brand new and spotless The family are so welcoming A must if your visiting Kandy - it’s 900 mtrs up the hills but the views are worth it and a couple of days we walked the 3km into the centre and back - no issues if you like walking - if not a tuk is £1 or so… Breakfast was a delight Fabulous and would return

United KingdomThe hosts were so lovely and welcoming, they helped us with everything we could possibly need. They also organised a tuk tuk tour of Kandy for us at a very good price. The location is a little far from Kandy town so you need a tuk tuk to see everything but it was a beautiful setting and very quiet at night away from the noisy city.

They make sure you enjoy your time in and around Kandy and offer to assist in transportation and planning of trips. We did a tour to Dambulla temple and Sigiriya which our host drove us to. We also went to a traditional dance show in Kandy, which we can highly recommend.
