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...).

NetherlandsIt’s a bit remote so you’ll need a tuk tuk or a driver
Really enjoyed our stay at the chalet. Staff is very friendly and willing to help, our room was very spacious and our sons loved the tree house. Pool was also very nice and needed since it was pretty hot in Sigiriya. We also lots of beautiful birds

IrelandBreakfast could have some single options, it would make it more inviting to guests to take breakfast if so. Guests keep in mind it is in the middle of nowhere so bring supplies - water, snacks. These are not issues just suggestions. I loved my stay here. Thank you.
The place is in the middle of nature, which is what I wanted. You can hear all the beautiful sounds as you nod off to sleep and wake as the peacocks call you. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and clean. The air con is an up to date modern system. The outdoor shower is beautiful and hot/cold. You can walk to the centre of Sigiriya or Habarano if you're up for it, a combination of some Jungle, local area, and main road in about an hour to 1 hour 15min. Or you can get a tuktuk of course (at the time of writing this it is about 1000 lkr one way with a local driver off the street.)

SpainFood and services offered were quite expensive. We found the food quite basic but a bit overpriced and there are no options to eat nearby so you don’t have much of an option unless you have your own transport.
Nice rooms with aircon, hot showers, beautiful views, peaceful and lovely pool to cool down during the day.

GermanyOur stay was absolutely wonderful! The hotel is beautifully located in a peaceful, idyllic setting, and we loved seeing peacocks wandering through the garden. The service was outstanding, especially the seamless organization of a tuk-tuk to Lion’s Rock. The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere, and the breakfast was delicious. The pool area is perfect for relaxing, and the chalets are beautifully designed with great attention to detail. The open-air bathroom was definitely a highlight! We highly recommend this place and would love to come back!

IndiaWe liked it all.
We loved the location of this place and booked it only by reading the reviews. Honestly I was little skeptical about it in the beginning but trust me this place is too good. It brings out the raw beauty of nature and the behaviour of the people was so so good.

One of our favorite stays in Sri Lanka! Very beautiful modern and cute chalet with an outdoor shower, everyone takes fantastic care of you, they have a little restaurant and make the best cafe latte with fresh coconut milk!! The pool area is clean and you can completely wind down. They even let us hang out there during the day after the check out and we really appreciate the great hospitality! If you’re looking for a place full of serenity in beautiful nature with view of sigiriya rock, go here!

United KingdomNot a “didn’t like” but obviously be aware that for this value it isn’t a 5 star resort - doors creak and if you’re in a downstairs room you can hear all the water running from your upstairs neighbours. Everything was immaculate and comfortable though, and the team went out of their way to make us welcome. We were very sad to leave.
Incredibly peaceful, wonderfully welcoming hosts, delicious Sri Lankan curry. Just around the corner from a super 5 star star star property but at an absolute fraction of the cost and probably way more character! Big room with lots of hot water for “outdoor” shower (though don’t shower just after 4 other guests in the same block! Wait a few hours for the hot water to replenish then get it all for yourself!). Loved the chattering geckos in the room and the peacocks calling outside. And fresh mango juice from mangos from their own property :)

United KingdomDefinitely recommend rock shade chalet, rooms were amazing, we were even upgraded our first evening. The staff were outstanding, they couldn’t do enough for us. They ordered tuk tuks and transport, arranged trips and had many recommendations. Breakfast was great and the evening meal we ate at the restaurant was our favourite of our trip. We stayed over new year and the staff included us in their traditional Sri Lankan celebrations.
