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 AfricaFor families with older children, I would recommend considering booking two separate rooms instead of the family room. This suggestion is based on the fact that the family room's layout might not offer the desired privacy due to shared spaces like stairs, and having just one bathroom for all occupants could potentially be inconvenient. Opting for separate rooms could enhance overall comfort and privacy for everyone.
The host's performance was nothing short of remarkable. Their unwavering dedication to even the minutest aspects was genuinely extraordinary. The cleanliness was impeccable. The diverse menu was thoughtfully designed to cater to the diverse preferences of our entire family. A special mention goes to the fantastic play area that makes this place highly recommended for families with young children.

South AfricaSome of the dinner options could do with a some extra flavour especially the steak and calamari dishes. It would have also been nice to a shower upstairs and some serving utensils in the room.
From the time we arrived we were treated with a great amount of professionalism and warmth. Robyn and her team went outbid there way to make our stay memorable and seamless. The views were absolutely amazing and it definitely allows for you to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city. We loved the touch of the rocky pools and the entertainment area which gave us every reason to stay at the lodge with very little need to venture out. The breakfast menu was also rich with some great tasty options.

The breakfast was amazing. The menu had a great variety of dishes and the views from the restaurant were breathtaking. The bubbly and helpful Robyn made our stay extra special. She is very knowledgeable about the area. Her recommendations of places to see and things to do met all of our family members' expectations and needs. Thank you Robyn for the excellent service!
