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...).

PolandI had a pleasure to spent 4 nights at this hotel. The hotel is ideally located, just a short walk from Hikkaduwa’s stunning beaches. The rooms are spacious, well-maintained, and equipped with all the necessary amenities to make your stay comfortable. The ocean view rooms have a stunning view of the ocean and you can enjoy the ocean from your balcony. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and always ready to assist with anything you need. Whether you're traveling solo, as a couple, or with family, Neevana Hotel offers a fantastic combination of value, comfort, and hospitality. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Hikkaduwa!

IndiaThe stay was not satisfactory considering the amount paid for the rooms. Though the view is awesome from our sea view rooms, yet the rooms are small. No telephone in room. Service was poor. You need to connect with the reception through whatsapp. So you have to wait for their response once they see your message. We stayed here for 2 days. on 31st night the music was loudest till 1 am, though the party timings were till 12 am. We had a nightmare experience, not able to sleep as the rooms were not sound proof. This shows they dont care for guests. I would have been satisfied if the music volume would have been lower. Food options are very less. For Indians is will be tough, as they serve continental.
Location was good. On the beach.

United KingdomAll good
It's lucky to find a beach hotel with such a great location a few steps from the rolling waves. We managed to extend our stay we like it so much. The swimming pool was right on the beach. You will need to go 300 meters left to avoid the rocks but no hardship. Food was all good. Staff helpful and friendly. Beds comfortable. Wi Fi worked. Mostly hot water. We were upgraded to a sea room view which is absolutely worth it.

United KingdomIt's on a busy road but doesn't affect the hotel. All beach hotels in this area have the same road.
Large comfortable room. Good WiFi and air con. Very pleasant polite and caring staff. Especially on reception and in the restaurant. Amazing location right on the beach sleeping to the sounds of the sea. Bonus of a swimming pool and sun beds and pool towels provided. Would recommend the sea view rooms if available but all the rooms good. Great stay and recommended. Food is excellent. Breakfast good with an egg chef. Dinners plentiful.

We spent our holiday at Neevana Hotel. We were warmly welcomed by the front staff . Our initial impression upon entering the hotel was very positive. They even provided us with a free room upgrade to a deluxe room, which had a lovely indoor garden and was very clean. We also visited their pool and restaurant; the food was amazing. We really enjoyed our time there and will definitely be coming back next time. Thank you, Neevana."

New ZealandTerrible mattress with no mattress protector and see through sheets, so bad I slept on top of covers with a pool towel over. Air Con only worked on high, very noisy, vanes broken so cldn’t adjust. doors to room leaked so water covered floor during rain. Shower drain didn’t work, more water outside shower than in. Toilet seat n roll holder broken, basin broken. Terrible WIFI (staff did give us a router tho). Was 4-5 star price, but 1 star level .
The entrance and pool area was nice, but that is where ‘nice’ ended. Staff were friendly and helpful, and tried within their limited capabilities with a run down property

Sri LankaThe a/c in the room wasn’t working and could be better looked after .beach right in front was grubby, and the sun beds / day beds are rotting/ falling apart. Next door cafe / restaurant ‘natura’ had nice sun Beds, food and drink so we spent our time there. Photos look better than the place itself and it has a strange set up where the rooms have all glass to a common walkway - which felt really weird And you had to keep the blinds down at all times for privacy.
Good location on the beach, next door to a super restaurant
