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.).

NetherlandsThe Lodge is a beautiful setting and very close to the Etosha Nat Park. Very friendly and dedicated staff who manage to offer the best. Excellent service and excellent food. Safe parking for the car provided. A must be place to experience the natural beauty of Namibia. Safari trips can be arranged by the reception, where questions are welcome!

United KingdomNo fridge in room, that little bit more expensive than other lodges.
I stayed for 2 nights with my 5 year old. It is a larger lodge than Toshari, the chalets were really nice - very private, food selection (buffet) was plentiful and tasty, and we did a breathtaking evening game drive from here. The sundowner deck is just fabulous, and I felt that the way dinner was served out on the deck with twinkling lights was really quite romantic. Our highlight was (by extremely good luck as we were unaware of the concert before we arrived) seeing the German opera stars sing on the deck, across Etosha and with in the background and the sun setting. It was absolutely magical.

GermanyThat the door to the outside was badly fixed, after we reported that it just swings open with a little wind. That was poor craftsmanship, as we then couldn't open up both doors fully anymore.
The privacy of the rooms with the most stunning view. Furthermore, the little coffee station was well stocked with really good coffee. The setup of the rooms was stunning! The food was delicious and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Clothes were washed with care and delivered the same day. All swimming pools had the most breathtaking views. The grounds were very well kept.

SwitzerlandGreat lodge with stunning view onto the bushland from a higher platform where the bar and restaurant are. Excellent restaurant staff. Awesome camp restaurant with live music which is absolutely worth to have dinner instead of the main lodge for a change. Great fun!
