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 KingdomThe bedrooms were in separate huts, despite being advertised as a two-room suite. Not ideal if you want to sleep in a different room from children. They were also lacking fans.
Nice rooms and pool, great provisions and food cooked by the chef, excellent location for safari in the national park - highly recommend Raphael as a guide. Very friendly staff.

NetherlandsThe food. Prices are extremely high for what you get. We then decided to order Indian food at a place recommended by the accommodation which was much better and for 1/5 of the price.
Very nice and quiet place, beautiful cottages, nice view over the park, really a place to relax

New ZealandNot a complaint, but if you got dropped off by taxi and dont have a car, you will need your own food to cook, or get a taxi to town. You could walk, but not advised after dark.
Lovely quiet place if you don't want to stay in nairobi. Absolutely no noise, facilities were very good.

United KingdomWouldn't have changed anything
Nyati Hill Cottages are an oasis of calm much needed after a long flight. Views into Nairobi National Park were exceptional and you can see wildlife in the distance - giraffes, zebra, gazelle, buffaloes etc. Self catering facilities and meals cooked if you wanted. Very tasty dishes cooked by Mary. Chalo was on hand for any wants and needs - very efficient, professional and friendly. Mall with supermarket, shops etc about 20 mins. Highly recommend this place for short or long stay. A home from home. Bernard the driver was great & picked us up from the airport including our pet and drove us to the malls and into Nairobi. David the other driver was also great and drove us from Nyati to Mombasa. We felt safe and relaxed during this long trip to the coast

KenyaThere was literally nobody staying there but me and the staff was basically invisible. I was looking for a quiet place but not a lonely one. I was the only guest, a solo traveller on top and staff was kind of absent. It felt pretty weird almost surreal. I wish I would have known that before or the staff would have been a little more attentive, communicative and interested in their only guest. I felt I kind disturbed them and the tranquility.
The compound is in a remote area, beautyful but rather small. The houses are nicely done, with beautiful flowers around and the rooms were clean but the mosquito net unfortunately had holes. I was shown my room/house at arrival by a not so friendly - I don't know who he really was. He was the only staff I met. Nobody else there. Breakfast ingredients were shown to me in the kitchen that wasn't attached to the room but an extra kitchen house opposite my room, so whenever I need something I had to go outside, also at night. I had to make breakfast myself another thing I didn't expect. I thought the kitchen use was meant for making lunch or dinner during my stay (I knew there was no restaurant through the description on booking.com) and breakfast was being served in a common area but there is no such place.

United KingdomFor the place to be more updated and the food wasn’t really to our tastes or great for our 4 kids, but the chef was lovely and we were well looked after.
We loved the location of this property, but he rooms were basic but traditional and felt authentic. The facilities like the bathrooms and kitchen are very dated but all worked. It is tired and basic but the friendly housekeeper and chef and the location made it the perfect choice for us. You can see the zebras, baboons, buffalo from the terrace as you look over the park and enjoy some drinks. Ideal!
