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...).

AustriaThe smell in the room was a bit unpleasant.
The boys were very helpful and forthcoming. The breakfast was one of the best we had in Sri Lanka. Its not far from Lions Rock and only a 15 min walk to the center. Bathroom was spacious and so was the bedroom.

Czech Republic-When you asked for breakfast for specific time this time only means for them that they start slowlu working on it - so you will get it half hour after the asked time (2/2 days was like this) - it is not a big problem, but in case you have something agreed before it is better to count with it :)
It was very nice and clean. The staff were kind and helpful and tried to help us to rent the scooter. The location was quite good and calm - but to get closer to “village centre” with lot of restaurants and cafes and nice view for the rock you have to take tuk tuk or other transportation (just FYI). Breakfast was good - very standard in Sri lanka - egg toast, butter jam, fruits. One day we got also coconut sambol and rotti.

GermanyRooms are simple, but spacious and incredibly clean. Has all essentials: no kettle, but absolutely not a problem when the manager of the property is serving tea and coffee free. Location, off the main road. Amazing if you like somewhere a bit quieter, away from the tourist hubbub, but still accessible. 20-min walk to the Rock. Some tuk-tuks ask for more to drive them down the back street road. We just asked them to drop us off at the main road entrance and walked from there. Breakfast - sensational. Five stars. Home cooked coconut rotis and hoppers. Fresh, served at your selected time. But now the star of the show: Property Manager, Fernando, is a hospitality king. Waiting up late for us, to greet us with great welcome and ensure we had booked all of our drivers/activities for the next day. Making sure we were getting the best rates for our tours and tuk-tuks. Whatever we needed, Fernando delivered. He even tried to give us back our tip! But he deserved every penny. If you're reading Fernando, sir, thank you so much!!

United KingdomThey didn’t routinely serve drinks or food in the evening (although they did offer when we asked!). It was a bit of a walk into town and you shouldn’t walk at night because of the elephants.
Walking distance to Lion Rock. The breakfast both days was different, huge, and delicious. The staff were very helpful (but only the son/husband speaks English so it was a bit tricky if he wasn’t around). The room was big, clean, and comfortable. They helped us arrange a tuk tuk to Lion Rock for sunrise and a transfer to Kandy.

BrazilI can't really point anything.
The place is family run. Very honest couple, very helpful and likeable. The breakfast is great, not far from lion rock and the main restaurants in Sigirya. Also, if you need to take the 06.30am bus to Kandy, it is very handy as the bus stop is literally five minutes away on the main road. I would definitely return and it is a very good value for money.

The patio outside the rooms, used for breakfast and dinner, was very relaxing. Both (breakfast included, dinner on request) were very tasty, homemade and abundant. The structure was overall very tidy and clean.
