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.).

South AfricaThe room is small and basic with no WiFi or TV (free WiFi is available at the bar/restaurant area) which is fine for an overnight stay. The beds were really hard but some might prefer a very firm mattress. There is no coffee or kettle in the room but it can be provided at the restaurant. No drinks or food allowed in the room or a penalty fee is charged. The shower didn't have a curtain or shower door so the floor got really wet!
The hotel is the oldest country hotel in Namibia and is in good condition for its age. The bar and restaurant are great. We had a fantastic dinner, it was their Gemsbok/Oryx chefs special which was delicious. The staff were kind enough to accommodate our very late check-in and early checkout.

GermanyDinner was a bit underwhelming and breakfast was expensive for what was on offer.
A pleasant place to overnight, with lots of interesting historical stuff from the colonial period. We were lucky enough to arrive while the nearby (40km away) lily pan at Sandhof farm was in bloom, so we got a chance to see this world-famous sight the next morning. Staff were friendly and helpful, the small pool was very welcome after a long dusty day on the road, and the beer was very cold!

South AfricaIt rained recently and through no fault of the owners, there were a lot of mosquitos.
This is a well known hotel, visited often in the past. sometimes just for a beer. We were given space to park inside and assistance to keep our fridge in the car running. The pool was refreshing. The food really good.

A good one stop shop from Luderitz to the North. A clean great value for money hotel with a long history. One of the oldest in Namibia I believe. Lots of historical artifacts there. Food was good.Not a lot in Maltahöe to do but for a weary driver a good place to rest.

NamibiaThe bar is decorated with flags whereby there are several old-fashioned ones for Imperial Germany and Apartheid South Africa. I am not pleased to have them displayed, looks like the owners are proud of this dubious history. It would be better if there was no such "in-your-face" display of what is painful to some of us.
Easy to locate in Maltahöhe, view over the countryside outside town, clean and very friendly staff.

United StatesAll good
The hotel (more like a motel in the USA) is historic and has a homey, comfortable feel. The room was comfortable and clean, the food was good, and the staff and service were amazing. This is not a luxury property, it is a lovely place to stop between points. We would not hesitate to stay here again.
