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.).

MozambiqueAs something to improve, there were no soap and / or shower gels in the toilets. We had cold showers in the morning due to power cuts.
It was a wonderful experience. The suite was cozy and the bedrooms were clean and confortable. The place and the view were amazing. The swimming pool area was well worth it due to hot weather when we arrived. Pitty the winery its not working and we didn't have a wine tasting experience there to compliment with the view. And the restaurant was also not working, that made us go out to eat.

South AfricaThe Restuarant is a bit dirty, looks like they dont do much cleaning on it. And it was very cold, they should invest in gas heaters to warm up the place. I was not impressed with the breakfast options, if you travelling with a child make sure you bring their cereal they dont have enough options for kids.
The venue and surrounding are very beautiful. Unfortunately we went in Winter it was a bit cold. I am sure in Summer its amazing

South AfricaWe loved the open shower, however it wasn't specified on the website so it was quite the surprise and might not be appealing to other guests. A bathroom mat would have been nice as there is no shower door. Uber's don't come to this area in a hurry so you will have to be very patient.
We really loved the location and the beautiful views. The rooms were spacious and there was a bar fridge with complimentary water provided. Breakfast was delicious and sent to our room. There is also a restaurant on the property which was convenient. Parking is safe and on the property.

South AfricaThe menu at the restaurant was limited and the wine list was very pricey for the winelands. Check in could have been better but the lady who was left at reception did not know enough to answer some questions when asking for information, she did her best to answer what she could with a smile but she could have been given more substantial training to empower her.
The room was spacious, new and tastefully done. The grounds are absolutely beautiful. The restaurant is stunning and the food was great, the staff specifically at the restaurant were also fantastic!

South AfricaUnfortunately the Wi-Fi at Orchard unit 5 is so weak it is pretty much non-existent. The gas barbeque was not functional with 2 out of 3 nobs broken. This unit does not have "river views" as advertised. It resembles a dried out pond. When paying upwards of R3500 per night, one would not be expecting to be paying for a second coffee at breakfast.
Friendly staff and well kept , neat premises. Modern and well appointed one bedroom suite. Very nice breakfast choices the Saturday and Sunday at the Farmers Pantry with a neat little breakfast box the Monday, included in the price. Wonderful pool area with ample seating.
