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...).

IrelandEverything was perfect. Absolutely nothing to complain
This place is fantastic. Very cosy. Rooms are very clean and big. Srimal and his mom are the nicest people on earth. Very helpful and approachable. You feel like you are with family. Outside is very green. Loads of plants. We were planning to stay for one night but the charm of the hotel and the owners had convinced us to stay longer. Food is amazing. Breakfast are big and extremely tasty. You choose day before what would you like to eat. You can have dinner too. Srimal's mom is fantastic cook!!! It is about 2.5km to Sigirija Lion Rock. I would choose this place again in a heartbeat. Thank you guys!!!

EstoniaWe had an amazing time in Cardamon Villa! The room was clean, beautiful, new and very spacious. The bathroom is also very clean and beautiful. The best accommodation we stayed in so far on our trip. Breakfast was delicious. The host Srimal is so lovely and took so good care of us. He really went out of his way to make sure we had a good time. He was super helpful. We had mechanical issues with our tuk tuk, and he helped to get these fixed. Honestly, a wonderful experience. We left our hearts full of gratitude and feeling like we have one local friend now. Thank you so much Srimal 😊

United StatesThe property is a tad far from the main area of restaurants and such. Probably took us about 25min walk to get the start of the town. Also the wifi had some issues with dropping out frequently. Minor inconveniences for an otherwise very nice stay.
We ended up here because our other accommodation didn’t have our booking and thus didn’t have a room for us. After a bit of searching we found Sigiri Cardamon Villa and we were super happy with our stay there. The host family is super nice and accommodating. Very friendly. They prepared great breakfasts and were flexible about when we wanted to have them. The owner agreed to take us to pidurangala trail for a sunrise hike. He was ready right at 5am and dropped us off for the hike. We then came back around 9:30 after visiting Lion rock and they prepared us a very nice and tasty breakfast. The room is very big as is the bathroom. Everything is nice and modern. The AC worked great, hot water etc. Overall we were very pleased with our stay here.

AustraliaCommunication with our host (not the main owner but i think another family member and it wasa female and she had a different name) was sometimes a bit uneasy, occasionally coming off as passive aggressive. We tried not to overthink it as it could have just been due to the language barrier but just something to keep in mind. Overall would still recommend
Overall we had a lovely stay at Sigiri Cardamom Villas. The room was large and spacious, cozy bedding with a comfortable mattress and pillows. Very modern and the bathroom was very hygienic. The location was perfect as you could walk to multiple restaurants in the town whilst being secluded away in a more peaceful location. We unfortunately had booked 3 nights in this accommodation but the first night we were unable to stay due to "plumbing issues"- they were kind enough to put us up in their aunties accommodation as we weren't told until the day of however the hygiene at the othet accommodation was almost unacceptable but we put up with it for the night as we knew we were moving the next day. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay, the food we had for breakfasts was lovely.
