Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

BelgiumMaybe a towelclean would have been nice for our 3 nights-stay.
The staff are very friendly and very kind to kids. They cook excellent food in the restaurant. Nice for young kids who can sleep in the room and parents can have a relaxing diner. Pool was big and clean. A bit out of town, for us that was perfect. Room is basic but ok.

NorwayLocation is remote, especially if your planning evening walks. The standard of the bathroom is ok, but not great (leaky sink). No driver accomodation on site.
We stayed for one night. This is a small place with 8 guest rooms. Staff are very friendly and attentive. The pool is nice. The bathrooms is ok, with water closet and shower. Airconditioned. Simple but ok breakfast. The hotel lies in an area with few buildings surrounding it, so we observed a lot of wildlife around from the top floor.

PolandThe rooms were not so clean. The smell in the room wasn't nice. The location outside the city - you need to have a car or tuk tuk to go anywhere.
Very nice pool, big, with a space for kids. Beautiful view from the restaurant. The breakfast good, but all times the same. Very pleasant service.

GermanyThe room especially the bathroom and overall the hotel could be cleaner.
Our three bed room was big and we had enough space. Overall the hotel was spacious, e.g. also the terrace and garden with pool. The staff was friendly and supportive. The breakfast was good, but nothing special. The location is nice, quiet and you have a great view on the lion rock, but it is a bit outside of the city center. For us it was no problem as we had our own tuktuk.

NetherlandsLike said above, it is a bit outside the city center. However, it was not really a problem because they drove us to the city by tuktuk.
The pool was very nice and clean, offering a relaxing space. The upper floor, with its beautiful view, provided the perfect spot to enjoy meals and chill. The staff were exceptionally kind and attentive, making our stay even more memorable. Although the location is slightly outside the city center, where dining options are plentiful, the staff went above and beyond, arranging tuk-tuk rides to help us reach the area easily. A special thank you to Charu and Lahiru, whose warmth and hospitality made our experience truly wonderful.

SingaporeNot within the hotel’s control but our room was close to the entrance so we had tuk tuk noise, all guests walking past our room at all times of day/night which meant we were disturbed a lot, especially late at night when other guests were coming home or very early in the morning when guests were heading out for safaris etc.

SwedenEverything was great
Very nice place in a serene location in the outskirts of the small town. The view from the terrace is magnificent. You have a perfect view of the Lion rock and you can see quite a lot of wildlife. The rooms were great and the pool area as well. Even though the resort is great, the highlight of the resort is the manager - Lahiru. He booked two transports for us. Took us on the tuktuk to the Lion rock and was overall very helpful and down to earth. Great guy!
