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.).

SwitzerlandThe Hotel is at the Echo Caves. It is very quiet and scenic. The staff is extremly friendly and supportive. The rooms are basic but functional. Parking directly in front of the rooms. Be aware that a dirt road gives access. Slippery when wet. But overall we were happy staying there.

United KingdomNothing but note that at least at this time of year no evening meal or breakfast was available. we didn’t need either - We had coffee from the room for breakfast and some fruit we brought with us on the picnic tables outside the caves. We had a buffet at the forever resort the evening before.
No frills, authentic, exceptional value accommodation. Accommodation run by the family that (re)discovered the caves in 1923. Great base (25mins drive) to the Forever resort where you start the superb walking trails overlooking the gorge and the three rondevels. Added unexpected bonus was the tour of the Echo Caves - the guide Ivans (sp?) was excellent and the caves impressive.

South AfricaThe sign as you turn onto the dusty/sand road says Echo caves but nothing about accomodation it's should say and accomodation.As I was thinking it was to a site not knowing it's the same place I was staying at.
Very central if you wanting to explore the eastern Transvaal sites. Anika was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the roads and area

United Kingdomhad a couple of trouble making africaans for a day but soon quitened them down, the only food in the cafe was burgers so had 3 days of burgers once my chicken was finished
it was a very interesting place, located down a rough track into the bowls of the earth by the look of it. Room was good, could of done with more of a kitchen area and tables. The shower was very basic. The vervet monkeys where a delight getting to feed the cheeky chaps a few times a day. The owner was good, bringing fruit and biccies a few times.

South AfricaOnly negative for me was that there was no fridge, as indicated in the facility description. Apparently not all rooms have been equipped yet. As we were the only guests, one could have been moved to our room. With the restaurant not open during those times, a fridge and even just a microwave would be very handy.
Amazing surroundings and view! Very friendly and helpful staff. We had light hail and good rain just after arrival, leaving nature fresh and clean for a walk.
