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.).

KenyaI liked the food, the WiFi was so fast and the staff were super Friendly. Mayson was such a great host and Dennis was really amazing when it came to the game drive. There is also a stand-by generator in the event of a black-out. **These are just tents, anything loud ;) you do inside your tent will definitely be heard by the person in the next tent, lol.

SwedenThe stay was very good. The tent was new and also the furnitures. The bed was found very comfortable and wide, we slept all nights long except when we woke up and heard the wild animals. The staff made everything to make us feel like home and they were excellent. The lodge is situated just 1 minute from the gate to the Mara. We can strongly recommend this tented camp! Lina and Martin

NetherlandsI wasn’t very inspired by the food, the dining section could be better but then again, the owner informed me he’s renovating for the upcoming season so this is already being addressed.
Very close to the park entrance, great contact with the owner and very intimate setting in the bush.

United StatesI absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms are up-to-date with new WiFi, making it easy to stay connected. You don’t need to worry the insects. Here is clean and tidy. Services are also perfect and sweet. The hot showers are a dream, especially after a long day. When you’re heading to the national park, they’ll delicious breakfast and lunch boxes - they’re a real treat. And at night, the sounds of wildlife create a magical atmosphere. It’s a fantastic experience I highly recommend!

KenyaSmall food portions but delicious & staff willing to add on request.
Great Location that's highly accessible even in small vehicles. Next to Talek centre & the entry to the Mara Game Reserve but well secluded in a natural environment. Friendly staff. Connected to electricity. Working warm showers. Good clean enjoyable tents. Upgrades of facilities ongoing with the new tents very attractive. Camp organized a memorable game drive with a highly skilled tour guide/driver in a landcruizer. Great value for money.
