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.).

AustraliaWe stayed in a self-catering Edeowie Unit, but unfortunately it was not a corner unit and was fully exposed to the afternoon sun. Although the outside temperatures were only in the low 20c range we had to close all the inside curtains to control the heat in the room, and couldn't sit out on our unshaded terrace.
Location is fantastic for exploring Wilpena Pound and the Flinders Ranges in general. The Resort stay included a very generous breakfast selection. The local walks were easy to access and provided plenty of opportunity to enjoy the local environment.

AustraliaI thought breakfast was particularly average. No muesli for two days and the scrambled eggs had been sitting there for a long time.
We stayed in the Ikira tents and I loved them. So very quiet, great bed and piping hot shower in the coolish mornings.

AustraliaWilpena Pound Resort is the perfect location to visit the Flinders Ranges with lots of scenic drives and walks that is suitable to all. The room was nice and comfortable and clean. We dined at the restaurant and eat local specialties and enjoyed the buffet breakfast.

AustraliaTrying hard to think of something we didn’t like!
The “resort” style rooms were set in a lovely garden with natives that attracted birds and wallabies at sunset. Gorgeous! Great outdoor seating area for morning coffee and night star gazing. Good chef in the restaurant, very happy with all our meals and reasonably priced. All staff were lovely. Fabulous to see the property is being run by local countrymen. IGA and fuel on site so convenient! Rooms a bit pricey but kind of understandable considering remote location.

AustraliaWe really liked the set up at Wilpena pound. Our room was really quite spacious, light and bright and and perfectly located with parking in front of it, and was quick walk to both the restaurant area and the shop. The menu at the restaurant was good and the food we tried was hearty and delicious.The walks around the Pound started opposite and there were quite a good choice to do. go for a few days and enjoy nature!We saw kangaroos, echidnas, lizards, Emus and lots of birdlife.

AustraliaTelevision needs updating, description suggested that there was satellite channels however could only access three free to air. Sleep function would’ve been great. Power points are installed to low as anything with a bulky plug like iPhone charger wouldn’t fit due to bench. Dining in the restaurant was noisy, could make one of the dining areas a little more intimate.
Property was comfortable and well laid out. Food was good and reasonably priced.

Room was very clean and comfortable, with a double bed, two single beds and private bathroom. Resort restaurant and bar were very good. We had breakfast included which was great. Visitors centre had lots of information and the store was well stocked. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We did the gorges tour which was beautiful and Uncle Mick was a fantastic guide, being both extremely knowledgeable and very entertaining. The scenic flight over the Wilpena Pound was also excellent and gave a spectacular view of the amazing landscape. Lots of nature to see with many kangaroos, emus, wallabies, eagles and other birds.

AustraliaMy key didn't work on arrival to the safari tent so I had to wait to be changed over- not a huge problem and staff/ manager both very helpful and I was given a courtesy drink for the trouble. i get the sense this resort really cares about the customers.
Great view and amazing surrounds. The huge trees, the wildlife, and the hike into the Pound are all incredible. Loved the welcome to country given in the late afternoon outside reception. The reception staff were helpful. My safari tent was great, good aircon, nice bed and good shower. It was quite windy and hot while I was there in December but the tent was fine with a small deck to sit outside. Breakfast great as was dinner. The restaurant is really amazing.
