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 KingdomThe stove-top in the kitchenette is high, on top of a countertop oven, so a bit difficult to use unless you are very tall! This really is a counsel of perfection - everything else was fine!
The space was great - with good views. Lisa and Wayne were great hosts, and very helpful in giving local advice, and dealing with a few little issues, and their housekeeping staff do a great job as well as being friendly. The guest house is lovely and quiet, with the road outside, and the hill path behind, being used by early morning joggers and dog walkers. Car parking was fine, and within an alarmed area. Good coffee machine. The unit is spacious and comfortable.

DUNWEGAN cottage was our location for three nights. We were in walking distance from the well known golf club Clovelly where it easy to grab a bite to eat. We loved our accommodation together with the warm welcome and help from the staff. We would definitely stay again if only for the delicious coffee and spectacular views.

South AfricaWe enjoyed our stay at Dunvegan Lodge and there was nothing we did not like.
Our host Lisa was super friendly and personally opened up our cottage for us when we arrived. Everything was clean and tidy, from our room, bathroom, kitchen and lounge area, to the gardens and pool area. There were two scrumptious and deliciously fresh pastries beautifully presented for us when we arrived. The property has a gate leading to the mountains behind the lodge with stunning hiking trails leading over the 'Saddle' with picturesque views of Kalk Bay, the harbor, and sea views that need to be seen to be believed. Hiking down the trail into Kalk Bay, we enjoyed a scrumptious breakfast at one of the many coffee shops and restaurants along the seafront before visiting a menagerie of interesting shops and market stalls all within walking distance. When we returned, we enjoyed ice cold drinks on our private patio where we were able to relax and take in the breathtaking views overlooking the golf course and rolling mountains. Lisa went out of her way to ensure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed.

United KingdomNothing to dislike. There are a lot of steps, which some people may struggle with.
The location is ideal for a golfing break, being about half a mile from Clovelly golf club. It is also close to Kalk Bay, Simonstown and the route to Cape Point. It is a 40 minute drive from Cape Town Airport. All the major roads can be reached very quickly. You can drive to the centre if Cape Town in 20 to 30 minutes. Clovelly beach is is a short walk , about a kilometre, down hill The property has several different units to let, and we had the studio, which was adequate for our needs for a 10 day stay. It has a small but efficient kitchenette and a large bathroom with shower and bath. There is a good sized sitting area with cover attached to the studio, and guests can use the large gardens with pool and relaxing areas, plus jacuzzi on request. The chambermaid comes daily, and she us very good and friendly. The owners, Lisa and Wayne are the kind of people who become personal friends very quickly to all their guests. Nothing is too much trouble. The mantra seems to be 'the answer is yes, what us the question?'
