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.).

The mountain pass Seweweekspoort, on the way in was spectacular. Extremely scenic, bungalows are wonderful, we only spent one night and should have done 2. Main lodge is beautiful, our dinner (Karoo lamb) was so good, I will say it was the one of the best meals of the trip. Our host and guide, Sarah was full of interesting info about the park and the areas history, and gave us a wonderful game drive in the evening. The stars came out and after the camp lights went off I was able to capture some beautiful scenic with the Milky Way blazing away.

South AfricaI liked it, we had a large SUV, but some people might have issues with the road. It is a dirt road through the mountains that provide wonderful views, but it can be a bit scary in a smaller car. I don't think you'll have issues getting to the lodge, just something to be mindful of.
The location is AMAZING. It is well removed from society which is exactly what we wanted. Henry who assisted us with our stay is helpful and kind, what a guy! The unit we stayed in is fantastic, clean, and BLKNR supplied things like charcoal and ice for our braai.

At the end of a very scenic road is an absolute gem - Bosch Luys Kloof. An absolute oasis in the midst of fantastic scenery. This was one of the most relaxing holidays we have ever had. We went for long walks in the mornings and lounged by the pool in the afternoons. The accommodation, hospitality and service is first class. Henry, Bruce and Sarah are excellent and made us feel so welcome. Lenie's cooking is just divine. We fully recommend a stay at Bosch Luys Kloof.

South AfricaA truly exceptional and very relaxing stay! Hospitality was fantastic, Henry made us feel so at home. The staff are just great and always around for a chat, and will go out of their way to get you anything you need. The food was amazing too (you will not go hungry). The lodge never felt crowded, which really made it easy to just relax. Every direction you look in has magical views! The room was is larger than what it appears in the photos, with a great double outdoor shower. I had high expectations, and this gem of a place exceeded all of them. We'll definitely be back soon.

South AfricaAmazing stay. The nature drive// eco-trail drive is a must. We were given so much interesting info from the use of plants, the conservation of the Karoo land, the history, archeology of this area. Rooms/chalet were outstanding - one will surely be able to spend an romantic weekend away here. Walking /running/cycling trails to choose from. We will come back and bring our friends along. Thank you Henry and Bruce!!

South AfricaBruce, Henry, Sarah and the rest of the team really made sure to meet all our needs and wishes. We arrived with our bicycles, nearly frozen much later than anticipated on the day of our arrival. But the warm welcome was so great that we decided to add another night as we wanted to explore the area. We were not disappointed! Delicious food, cozy beds (including warm water bottles), amazing sunrise and sunset views.... We also did a fantastic hike, came back for a light lunch and joined a "game drive" which we usually would not. However we were blown away of Bruce's (the NR manager) knowledge about fauna, flora and geology. The whole lot? Anytime again!

Never have we experienced such an awesome environment so matched with great individual care that we felt carried by the breathtaking nature and seemingly effortless hospitality. Henry took care of us very well—thank you, Henry! Reading and relaxing at the pool was wonderful. And the drive out into the bosveld with Bruce was such a highlight. We left feeling whole again.

South AfricaVery happy with the game we saw Gemsbok, Kudu, Springbok, Duiker, Klipspringer and Dassies and many more. My wife and I so enjoyed seeing the animals in their natural environment, we really did not see the need to introduce other game species even if they were there 300 years ago ie Giraffe.
Magic place. Quiet tranquil with superb facilities. Food was truly outstanding, both my wife and I could not say enough about the delicious and very tasted meals. Bruce was the perfect host and our game drive with him was most enjoyable, he was so knowledgeable.
