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 AfricaI wish I could have stayed longer 😉
Berghaven Accommodation provided the perfect retreat for us! While my husband enjoyed fishing in one of the four dams, I savored peaceful moments on the comfortable outdoor furniture under the trees, with a glass of wine in hand. The bed was heavenly, the shower refreshing, and having braai facilities right outside was so convenient. And oh, the fireplace—absolutely my favorite! The surrounding area offered so much to do, from quad biking to canopy tours, and the local food was simply amazing. A stay here is an absolute delight!

The most beautiful view from the living area. Unpretentious lodging with everything you need for a couple of days' stay in the cottages. Enough wall plugs, conveniently placed. Very peaceful, yet close enough to everything in the area.

United KingdomThe staff could be friendlier. We didn't meet the person running it. There were signs up underlining the 10 am. check-out time, suggesting guests' departure was the priority. There was a notice advising to download an app for the load-shedding schedule. Given that there was no WiFi and a very poor phone signal, it would have been kinder to provide the timetable. The owner's dogs were a persistent nuisance.
The location! It's a beautifully situated cottage with a stunning view. It was really quiet and peaceful with a great seating area outside. The kitchen is spacious and well-equipped. It's well placed for visits into Monks Cowl and Cathedral Peak. We really enjoyed our stay despite the negative points noted below.

The scenery is outstanding, with amazing birdlife. There is a gorgeous play area that the kids LOVED! They even provided a gas kettle for load shedding - which we thought was great and added a caring touch. I'm in a wheelchair and this was one of the best layouts of an accessible bathroom that I've experienced.
