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 AfricaONLY 2 BEDROOMS HAD A DOUBLE BED AND THE REST OF THE ROOMS HAD BUNK OR SINGLE BEDS WHICH WAS NOT SUITABLE FOR THE OTHER COUPLE THAT WE HAD STAYING WITH US. THE DRIVEWAY TO THE PROPERTY IS ALSO QUITE ROCKY WHICH ISNT A PROBLEM FOR VANS AND 4X4'S. WOULDVE BEEN PREPARED IF WE HAD KNOWN ABOUT THIS.
THE HOUSE WAS AMAZING. LUCY LAMB SENT US PERFECT DIRECTIONS TO THE PLACE WITH CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS WHICH I FOUND VERY HELPFUL. THE PROPERY WAS SERVICED DAILY WHICH HELPED TREMENDOUSLY. IT HAD WIFI AND ALSO GOOD TELEVISION WITH NETFLIX AND DSTV WHICH WAS REALLY A BONUS. THE HOUSE HAD EVERYTHING YOU COULD NEED IN TERMS OF COMFORT WITH DEEP SOFAS AND CUSHIONS AND FIREPLACES ETC.

South AfricaThere was some issues with the oven, but Lucy had it seen to very quickly. There was a lot of cob webs around the ceilings. I had to ask the cleaning ladies on our 3rd day to please clean the floors and bathrooms. They washed dishes and made beds but i felt that they could have swept the floors in the main areas & bathrooms.
The cleaning ladies where at the house on our arrival. The house is very large & offers so much! Lots of space to relax. Furnishings was lovely. The beds had lovely linen and was very comfortable. It really feels like home away from home. Would recommend for a larger family or a stay with friends. Lucy was incredibly helpful and kind. Our stay was so much more relaxing having 2 cleaning ladies doing dishes and making beds every day. We went on a lovely walk from the house and the scenery was incredible.

South AfricaThe driveway is in need of serious repairs. One of our vehicles got slightly damaged on the way up. The rondavel roof and doorway had lots of cobwebs hence dust on the bed in that room. 2 of the 4 bathrooms did not have hot water resulting in us needing to use the rondavel shower. Grass between main house and rondavel needs trimming. Oven was not fully functioning even when hob was not in use.
The property was very beautiful and spacious. Nice size for a large family. Garden was beautiful and lots of things to see
