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.).

United Arab EmiratesThat we didn't stay long enough :) Myself and my husband were only in Stellenbosch for 2 nights for a friends wedding.
Everything! What a stunning house, blows you away. We were greeted by the host who was so sweet, told us about the story behind the house, how it was built. The guy is Italian and the Wife is South African, they built the house and it has a very Mediterranean vibe. They make their own pasta, olive oil and other bits & bobs. It feels super homely, I loved how classic the villa felt with the brick work and decor. Bedroom was really comfortable, scenery it's absolutely beautiful you can't get enough of the garden and views. Would highly recommend and will definitely stay again when we are back in Cap Town.

AustriaOur room did not have aircon. During the day it became quite hot. The fan helped a bit. As we only had a small car with not much PS it was a bit difficult to drive the gravel road upwards.
The area is absolutely stunning. You feel like being on a Tuscany hill. There is a phenomenal panoramic view which includes Table Mountain and Lion's Head. Best view ever. The house is built of solid rocks, fantastic architecture with great level of details including authentic interior style. The hosts are very friendly, Marilyn made fantastic breakfast and would have offered to cook dinner as well.

NetherlandsGreat views over the winefields and very nice mediterranian style rooms with patio and comfortable seats. We had an in-house dinner that was excellent. The state produces it own olive oil and wine. Excellent and quit place in the Stellenbosch-Paarl region. Down the hill is a beautiful golfcourse.

CanadaCasa Mori is not so easy to find for the taxis. If you need an early morning transfer to the airport, make sure you pre-book your ride the night before. Casa Mori is not within walking distance of the town of Stellenbosch (approximately 10km). The bathroom is huge and spotlessly clean, but it has no doors, which could be a privacy issue to me.
Casa Mori is a charming Tuscan-styled villa on the outskirts of Stellenbosch on the top of a hill with stunning views across the countryside. We arrived on a rainy overcast day and decided to stay in and enjoy our extremely large and beautifully furnished room. We purchased some tasty house wine from the Casa Mori vineyard and soaked up the views and ambiance for the afternoon. We had prearranged with the owners to have dinner in the guest dining room. It was warm and welcoming with candles and a roaring log fireplace. The food was a wonderful home cooked affair. We were made to feel very welcome in this family run guesthouse. As we did not have time for breakfast in the morning, we were very kindly given a small breakfast bag to take with us. It is a perfect countryside retreat away from big towns and noisy roads.
