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.).

United StatesThe buffet food was just ok. Very repetitive. Big tour groups show up just for lunch and/or bathroom break.
The rooms and view are breathtaking. The room is very comfortable with AC, TV, safe, patio. Game drives and Sunset cruises were great. Easy walk to grocery store and souvenir shops.

United StatesI wish that it would have better been explained that for meals there was an area that fed many tour groups coming through the area where you would spend one amount for an all-you-can-eat option and that there was a separate area for ordering a la carte. The a la carte option was the far superior option in my opinion both in terms of quality & value, but it took us a couple meals to figure that out ourselves.
Location was great. The room was exceptionally large and good value for the money. The grounds are very nice. The lodge helped set up transportation to and from Victoria Falls for me so that I wouldn't have to do that by myself, and that was great. The staff was friendly, and it was very easy to book activities. Price for activities was reasonable I thought. It was nice being greeted by a warthog outside my room in the mornings.

United StatesThe on-site Odyssey safari bookings were disorganized. I purchased an early morning safari on the night prior to the trip and my name wasn't on the list. They hand you a paper receipt which you aren't informed you must present upon boarding for the trip. Also, every time you do an excursion, you are charged a park use fee per person per trip.
Very close to the Zimbabwe border and close to a market for shopping and the grocery stores are walking distance. The cabanas are huge and very comfortable. My cabana #9 had a really nice view of the River and was close to the on-site restaurant and pool. The staff are very attentive, very professional and super helpful. I want to give a shout out to the staff that arranged for me to get to the bus rank early morning so I could catch the bus to transfer to Nata and onto Maun for the Delta. The bus was around 12 USD one way, approximately an 8 hour ride. I absolutely loved the comfortable bed, the views, the pool, and the on- site restaurant had the best coffee and breakfast. I will absolutely return. I wish I could upload more photos.
