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 AfricaIt will be nice if each room could have a hairdryer.
My third time at African Leaves Trout Lodge in the Oak House. Again it was absolutely fantastic. The decor in the house is tastefully done, quality of beds and linen is very good. The staff always friendly and keen to assist. The landscape is out of this world...we will defnitely return.

United StatesWhen we arrived, it wasn’t clear which building we were staying in. There is a choice of left or right as you enter the property and we of course went the wrong way. We couldn’t figure out how to get in. No available contact. Luckily booking.com was able to connect with a person. After a long travel day, it was quite frustrating.
Very peaceful location. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Buildings were quite interesting and fun to look at all the antique stuff.

Hong KongAnother superb stay here! Plenty of fires made, a lot of food eaten in all 3 table settings provided, a great sundowner session at the waterfall and some good fishing and down time. Also it was a big help with the house being set up so well with load shedding lights and the schedule printed out. Really easy and to get to and excellent communication with staff for extra needs, such as wood/ice replenishment.

South AfricaSuch a stunning place! Super friendly staff, equipped with everything you need and more, lots of beautiful spaces for social and private time. Pity we only needed to stay for one night - If I had known it was so wonderful I would have booked for longer. Would definitely suggest it to any couple, family or group of friends! Also, a perfect distance from Dullstroom.

South Africacan’t say there was much I didn’t like! load shedding sucks but the house was well equipped. the outdoor shower wasn’t really useable as the water trickles.
The home is beautiful & in the most wonderful location. private, serene, quiet and peaceful. the beds were comfy and great linen. absolutely loved the bar area - very fun! well equipped and furnished.

South AfricaThis was honestly one of the most beautiful places we have ever been to and we have travelled extensively. We WILL be back but this time for a lot longer.
I was blown away by the setting and the house itself. The main house is just SO beautifully designed and styled. The dual fire place which warms the kitchen/dining area as well as lounge area makes the home super cosy. The bar is so unique as well. Rooms are lovely with comfy and classy linen. Annexure with the main room (with outdoor shower and fireplace) and additional room is right next to the main house so private but very much part of the main house. The beautiful vine covered veranda was perfect for al-fresco dining and a beautiful breakfast setting. The views of lakes and mountains were breathtakingly beautiful and we loved the short hike to the waterfall.

South AfricaThere was nothing to complain about!
We thoroughly enjoyed every minute of our stay. The ambience and beautiful interior decorating enhanced our holiday. After a weeks stay we all wished we could have stayed longer. Our children with the grandchildren enjoyed the tranquility away from the city and the scenery was out of this world. The best part was that even our Border Collie was welcomed and enjoyed the farm life!

South AfricaEven with all the fires going the heaters were ineffective and it was difficult to keep the house warm. Trout fishing facilities were underwhelming. The short dirt road was a little tricky with a sedan but we made it over without damaging our cars.
The location was brilliant the accommodation ample and very well kept
