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 AfricaDrains were not draining properly ( we informed them). Shelf over sink made brushing teeth and washing difficult. Hook on inside of bedroom door would have been nice. Queen size bed would have allowed a bit more useful space to put down luggage etc. very draughty where doors don’t fit properly.
Location great. Quirky style. Helpful staff.

South AfricaGuests should be warned that the bathroom is not en suite and is on the ground level, hence, if you are on the top floor or even first floor, it is quite a mission to get to it in the dark - not suitable for guests with walking difficulties. The wooden floors and round bed are also extremely noisy for non-family members occupying the tower rooms separately (downstairs).
The venue was extremely quaint and clean.

South AfricaThe toilet was downstairs and was a mission to get to if you're staying upstairs but we knew this was the case before we went. The shower does fill up quickly and if you shower for too long it could overflow.
The accomodation is on the same property as a heritage museum, showcasing the mythical beliefs and folklore of the Xam people. The staff are all part Bushman and have contributed to the creation of the museum. The food is delicious and you can dine in the art gallery. The gallery is home to the wonderful work of the local staff who have learnt various artistic techniques to display the imagery of their culture through Lino prints and wonderful hand-made tapestries. We stayed in the tower and outside we had a patio/veranda with a table set up for dining or reading etc... they set up dinner for us just outside our room for a more intimate experience. The actual room was comfortable and serene. There weren't many appliances but we didn't need them for our one night stay.

South AfricaWe weren't told that the one room did not have a private bathroom connected, so one couple stayed in the house instead. We also didn't know that the house had 3 bedrooms as it was advertised as 1 bed 1 bath, so we booked an extra room unnecessarily. However, these are small concerns as the value for money was excellent.
The house was excellent in terms of space and facilities. Breakfast was a good spread and service very friendly!

South AfricaThe outside stairs to get to the bathroom takes some getting used to , but the communication around the facilities was very clear. You have to make a booking for dinner in Nieu Bethesda since it is very quiet , especially out of season and not many options available without prior notice. We were treated to a very basic home cooked meal at the Tower.
This was a very different accommodation and I loved it . It was super clean and central and the staff were exceptional. The rooms were comfy and warm despite the cold outside. Staff also accommodated our request for earlier breakfast to get going.
