Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

South AfricaThe water was not hot after running for several minutes we got a lukewarm shower. The type rush through! No response from staff or the reception to whom it was reported! Therefore rating of 7 or less! Thank you

South AfricaWe couldnt eat at the restuarant the night of our stay as there was a function. We went to the nearby Cattle Baron which did not disappoint.
Great views. We also got a complimentary wine tasting which was good.

South AfricaAlthough security is very important, the check-point at the entrance to the estate is a little annoying each time you come and go. We booked a standard room so can't complain about the small size, it just felt a little underwhelming in such a spacious and picturesque environment. Although the rooms are not that on top of each other, noise from other guests coming and going really does seem to be amplified. We're fairly sensitive to synthetic room sprays etc and they are fairly heavy-handed with the use of these - perhaps they were trying to mask the smell of cigarette smoke from the inconsiderate guests before us but I would definetly suggest being less generous on that front and perhaps providing a room spray that guests dispense themselves if they so wish.
Staff were always available and freindly. The location is very nice - close enough to enjoy all Stellenbosch has to offer without feeling overwhelmed by crowds all the time. I would say that a hire car is essential. A really excellent breakfast and very good coffee. Lovely pool area.

Wonderful little in a cottage with about 2 or 3 other units. Small but perfect for a one night stay. Modern, clean and comfortable. Exceptional breakfast in the most beautiful setting, included.

South AfricaRoom furnishings are basic and fair. Can maybe look at better overall interior for the price and location. Stayed in a single unit which is right next to the one or two bedroom units. The layout is a bit strange since I could look directly into their lounges and entrances from my small courtyard. Not much privacy for them in that regard.
The location is picture perfect. A 10/10 location. Room is fairly furnished and adequate for what one needs. Close to town, within driving distance. Great location on a golf estate.

South AfricaOur room didn't have a view as the best ones do. It wasn't very private as it was the first room and other guests were often passing. I was under the impression that all rooms were the same standard and price. At reception, I was told that we were in the unit called Pinotage. When we got there we found that Pinotage consisted of a few rooms. We found Pinotage 4 open and went in. It was spacious with a balcony and grea tviews. My girlfriend was super impressed with her Valentines surprise. As my girlfriend and I lay on the bed cuddling, some guests walked in. How embarrassing. I suggested that reception tells guests clearly that there are a few rooms and that the number is on the back of the key. I know that I should've contacted reception to make sure
The setting and Kleine Zalze on the whole. Beautiful pool and trees where we had breakfast
