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 KingdomWiFi wasn’t working in my tent or the dining area, staff were aware of this and were waiting on someone to come fix the problem.
The tents are wonderful, really comfortable bed, amazing view just above a river, everything you need; hot showers, kettle with selection of teas, coffees etc. Comfortable outside private seating area and most importantly the most helpful, friendly and courteous staff, very professional, nothing too much trouble. The food was absolutely wonderful too, breakfast was the best I’ve had anywhere, huge selection of fruit, pancakes, toast, eggs, cheese, salad, juice and real coffee, all fresh and mostly from the farm. Lunch and dinner were equally of a very high quality, healthy and delicious.

NetherlandsWe found the extra cleaning cost out of place.
What a fantastic location! And fantastic staff. We had dinner here on both nights and both were exceptionally good. Compliments to the chefs. During our stay we explored Arusha NP (only a 30mins drive and did a walking safari.

AustraliaIt was a bit remote, but this was also what makes it so relaxing;)
Stunning property. Very quiet and tranquil. The organic garden is stunning and the harvest is used in the food served. The staff was fantastic!

United StatesNothing frankly could be better, but do take into account that it is a 20-30 minute ride by taxi (rough road) to Dolly Farm from the main road at USA RIVER. You're basically on your own, don't expect to meet new guests, it truly is a place to retreat to from (or to prepare for) your safari or venture into Arusha or Moshe.
Altogether a marvelous 'retreat' for a few days, in exceptionally large and comfortable queen-size bed tents, fully equipped with shower etc. And chef on site prepares breakfasts to die for, delicious lunches (on-site or take-out) and super tasteful wholesome dinners. Not a la carte but make your wishes known and she'll surprise you! Meals are taken under majestic trees and the open sky near an open campfire, an elegantly set table, country-style. A brook is running near, down below in the gorge. Its soft rushing sound soothes the soul and assures a restful sleep. No need to stay awake past 9:30, and while birds might try to awaken you at the crack of dawn, the comfort of your bed will lull you back to sleep. We stayed for 5 nights, there are only three tents, and they are spaced wide apart, so plenty privacy!
