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...).

PortugalThe water was not super warm. There was no blinds Minor details: The door of the bedroom was difficult to close and open. You could see the light of the corridor from under the door. The bed was a little bit smal
It’s modern, clean, the shower has a glass! The location is good.

AustraliaThe room isn't very soundproofing, you can hear when people get in and out of their rooms, and sometimes speed racing at night. I would be more appreciate if they could hand-in the Wi-Fi password when checking-in not until I asked. The AC wasn't working well as I adjusted the temperature.
With modern interior, the room was nice and big as well as the washroom, everything was clean and tidy Great location, I can easily walk to restaurants around in about 7-10mins and it would take about 15mins by tuk to any attractions in Colombo. The staff are ready to provide any help if you ask.

AustraliaTook long time for room to be cooled from air conditioning and missing bug screening next to shower window (no window to close). Also no hand soap.
It was on a more peaceful area and you felt generally safe about the surroundings. The room was clean and bed comfortable. Nice lobby area.

AustraliaThe bedroom was was tough to lock from the inside. There was no soap/bodywash given.
I stayed 2 nights at fern bnb. The staff were pleasant. The location was a little far from anything e.g. lotus tower was 2km away. The area itself didn’t have much to do, its more of a relaxed area away from the chaos of pettah area for example. The hotel had a number of cosy European style cafes near by, which made getting a coffee or food quite accessible. The room only came with shampoo, no body wash or soap was available. The air conditioning was good. I found the bed comfortable. The shower was alright, its nothing i would personally complain about. The windows i notices were double glazed, which helped with noise, you could still hear noise on the street though, but, when its nighttime traffic mostly stops coming down the street, so i didnt have any problems sleeping. The place has a lift which helps with accessibility and luggage. To sum up, the hotel was ok, no major complaints. Though, i probably wouldnt stay in cinnamon gardens again if i were in colombo for a few more days— as theres really nothing much going there. Id say its a 6.5/10.. nothing special, but it got the job done. The price is probably slightly too high for what it was.
