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.).

Staying at bo la motte was perfect! The hosts were very helpful with any questions or queries. The location was lovely and peaceful with opportunities to explore the estate and take a leisurely stroll into town within 20 mins (quicker without young children). Log burner was welcome in the colder evenings.

Beautiful cottage in idyllic surroundings of the wine farm. Very peaceful but yet situated close to the town centre. The cottage had comfortable beds and all of the amenities that we could ask for. Communication was good, including the provision of clear directions for late check-in.

United KingdomA hidden oasis in franschoek. Perfect and peaceful setting amongst the vineyards and dam of Bo La Motte Farm. Perfectly situated to the Main Street and all of the vineyards easily accessed. Pool was great to have as well as the sunbathing terraces with fantastic views. Pear tree cottage was ideal and well equipped with lots of recommendations from previous guests and hosts. Would recommend highly.

United StatesBeautiful location and privacy. Christelle was very responsive to any questions. She greeted us at check in. Cottage has a Mediterranean feel to it. There are grape vines growing around it and even though there is no ac, it is always cool inside, maybe because of the construction. There is also a nice sitting area outside for breakfast and just chilling in the evening. We stayed at milkwood and it has two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. We will definitely be staying here when we are in Franschhoek again. Thanks

AustriaIf I have to pick something it was the fact that there is no dishwasher but that is only if I have to pick something.
The cottages are lovely and one instantly feels at home. They are quiet and you feel as if you are living in the vineyards with the most stunning views over the mountains. Town is a quick drive or even a 10 - 15 min walk. I will be visiting again.
