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...).

United StatesThe breakfast and dinner buffet did not have many Sri Lankan offerings which we really missed. Would be lovely to have string hoppers, milk rice, curries for breakfast, and perhaps hoppers, roti, and curries as part of the buffet offerings for those of us who love SL food and spice! (There is a small offering, but I wish it could be expanded a bit.)
Love the location of this hotel -- on spacious, green grounds (a couple of horses sometimes are brought to feed on the grass), and coconut trees, as well as other mature trees like tamarind and jackfruit. The rooms are huge and simply furnished, all is there. Surprised that such a quiet, country-side type hotel is only 10mins. from the airport! Really special. The large swimming pool is also very enticing.

United StatesThe breakfast buffet could be bolstered with more Sri Lankan choices for example hoppers, milk rice and kolkanda.
This is such a beautiful, quiet hotel on beautiful sprawling grounds. We stay there as an airport hotel because it is only 10mins from the airport, but this is nothing like a typical airport hotel. It is much more personal, and really makes you feel like you are in Sri Lanka. The staff are delightful, warm and friendly, and so helpful!

United KingdomThe coffee could be better . It’s always difficult for get good cafe latte etc in Asia ..
A lovely quiet location close to the airport . With fresh air . Better than the local airport hotels and I noticed airline staff were staying there too . Staff were so lovely . Breakfast was buffet and good . Pool was huge and a lovely relief after the long flight . If you have to stay over in Colombo I’d recommend this . It’s not in centre so safe too . They have ponies eating the grass which is a lovely touch too . Well done and thank you

The property is lovely, and the room includes a living room, so it was very spacious. It's an easy drive of about 10 minutes to the airport, so very convenient.

The hotel was great and the suite worked well. The property is a little dated, but they are working on upgrades. Suggest better air-conditioning in the bedrooms. The staff were great, the breakfast was very good and the property grounds are interesting with different trees and flowers.
