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...).

AustraliaGenerous sized clean rooms in colonial style, with ocean views from the balcony. The staff were friendly and extremely helpful. Breakfast was extremely generous and served on a sandy patio overlooking the beach. Food at Olin’s, was amazing! We loved the jumbo prawns and local curries. Happy hour drinks were a bonus. It was in a great location, a 30 minute walk to Hikkaduwa and turtle beach. The surf out the front was lovely to watch, but less safe to swim, however there was a patrolled beach a short walk away where a surf school was located. We also enjoyed the pool. As a family group spread across three rooms, it was perfect!

United Arab EmiratesFamily of 4 traveling for one day to Hikkadua and were met with wonderful service and a lovely place to stay. We had a ground floor double room and it was incredible spacious, clean and comfortable. Right on the beach and a quick tuktuk ride to the marine safari park (wouldn't rate that too high) and also the turtle beach. We walked down on the beach to the hotel on the way back and there were some lovely places along the beach, including restaurants etc. Breakfast was nice and the pool was a nice too.

Sri LankaWe travelled with our 15 month old and the staff were all so helpful and friendly. They even offered to keep her while we had dinner which was very kind of them. Everyone from the security at the property was always happy to help and was always with a smile on their face! The rooms were a pleasant surprise! So well thought out and had all the comforts you could ask for. To wake up to the view of the ocean from your bed is such a luxury. The beach area was maintained so well and our little one had the best time running on that beach. Oh and last but not least the food! All the dishes we tried was so delicious and the portions were extremely generous. They had a kids menu which was was great and even got us milk rice even though we forgot to inform them in advance. All the staff there went above and beyond. It was the perfect beach getaway and we can’t wait to be back!

AustraliaThe fish pond in the hotel is badly neglected. The fish were clearly lacking oxygen and struggling to breath.
Suite Lanka is a superb boutique style hotel. Staff was excellent, location, and food was also to the highest standards. A short 15 minute walk takes you to the amazing Turtle beach where you get to feed and swim with giant turtles. Hikkaduwa and Suite Lanka was one of the highlights of our trip. We were a family of 4 and stayed at the Suite Lanka Heritage suite which was very comfy.

IndiaI think the website photos don't do justice to the beautiful place it is in real.
It's a cosy Dutch bungalow very tastefully done up with all rooms facing the sea and direct access to the beach. 1st floor rooms were large and with stunning sea view. It's far away from any public beach so not much crowd. Srilanka breakfast was outstanding

Jordannone!
Nice little boutique hotel tucked at the far end of Hikkaduwa beach, away from the hustle and bustle from the main part. Despite this, the hotel is surrounded by great little restaurants (not to mention its own restaurant). We had a very relaxing time thanks to the great service and chilled out atmosphere. Would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a quiet, relaxing time on the beach.

SwedenEverything was great.
We had a fantastic Christmas stay at Suit Lanka. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always going the extra mile to ensure we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The food was fantastic, especially the fresh seafood and the delicious chicken curry. The location of Suit Lanka was perfect. Our room had the stunning view over looking the beach, and we could easily take a tuk-tuk to other nearby restaurants. We will definitely be back! Thank you and see you in the future.

United KingdomRoom was spotlessly clean, AC powerful, hot water & the surrounding grounds are well kept & so relaxing - they have a hammock & yoga Mats to use for free - great for sunrise/sunset! The beach is very clean, in our opinion this side of the beach is far better than the busier main section of Hikkaduwa where you lose half the beach for half the day because of the tide. But is only 10 min beach walk away to go to to the main portion. Breakfast was delicious - good amount of food! Staff were lovely and helpful - they organised our transfer to ulawatuna for us at a very reasonable price (we were 5 people!) Definitely try the two brothers restaurant at the front of the hotel off the main road - super cheap, rustic & authentic Sri Lankan food 2 mins walk from the hotel - you won’t regret it - service & food were 5* and its by the roadside!! Thank you for having us!

CanadaThere are only 2 umbrellas for 6 loungers on the beach and non-residents were welcomed to occupy them for the day as long as they spent 5000 rupees even when it should have been obvious to staff that those paying for rooms wanted to use them. This happened 3 days in a row and we finally had to complain when the hotel was full and people were competing for loungers that offer shade. In general I would say the staff is a little laissez-faire around service and upkeep. Just not as consistently friendly or service-oriented as other places we stayed in Sri Lanka. Perhaps short-staffed due to financial constraints. We had such warm service across the Island that its absence at this property was notable. A few tweaks would easily make this property a 10.
Great location at the quieter end of town, right on a gorgeous beach. Room was excellent. Food at Olin’s was the best we ate in Hikkadua and consistently good. Lots of different seating, sunbathing options in the sun and in the shade. Quiet property with primarily Western European and British guests. Pretty good internet, hot water, really good bed. The Sri Lankan breakfast is excellent.
