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...).

BulgariaGood location, up on a hill. Close to the city centre, but in a very quiet area, away from the hustle and bustle of Kandy. Very friendly and helpful hosts, tasty welcome drinks. We felt as a part of the family. Laundry service was okay (3000 rp).

United KingdomLovely home stay feel. Rooms were clean, comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. Wonderful views from just down the road, but the property itself is up a steep hill meaning we found it hard to get picked up in the morning! The walk to the bottom is only about 5 minutes though! Fantastic breakfast provided for an extra cost. Good value for money and we liked being a bit away from the busy vibes of the city!

BelgiumNothing . Maybe the optional guided tour (by a friend of hosts) was so worth it. The guide was non stop on the phone.
We felt immediately at home. The hosts were very friendly and playful with our children. They made us amazing breakfasts and dinner. Location is few minutes tuk tuk ride from town centre facing the jungle and… that is what you need after visiting noisy Kandy. We enjoyed our stay very much.

GermanyFrom the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcome. The hosts greeted us with a refreshing drink made from tropical fruit grown in their own garden, which was a lovely touch. They also arranged a driver to pick us up from the airport, making our arrival smooth and stress-free. The hospitality and attention to detail were truly appreciated.

United Arab EmiratesI felt very safe, welcomed and comfortable at Resort Beam. It’s a very tranquil location with beautiful views as you arrive up the hill, but this did make it a little harder to come and go from. For me, that was worth it though. A plentiful home cooked breakfast!

United KingdomWe loved our stay at Resort Beam! The homestay is located a bit out of the centre, at the top of one of the surrounding hills which was perfect for us, and we loved the walk down to the centre each day through the neighbourhood. The property itself is lovely - our room was very spacious with a great bathroom and outdoor terrace. We especially loved the owners are spent some time chatting with their son who was really funny and very helpful during our stay. We would definitely recommend!

The house is located in a quite area on a hill above kandy which is perfect if you want to leave the hectic and busy city behind you and prefere the soothing sound of birds to honking tuc tucs in the night.

NetherlandsThe property was very good, it is in the mountain but it’s a short walk (around 10 minutes) to the centre. Nirmala made us delicious breakfast everyday, with fresh fruit, toast, eggs and a local dish. She also arranged a taxi for us, who showed us around Kandy for a small price. Nirmala and her family were so kind, we’ve enjoyed our stay so much!
