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 AfricaThe rules and threats of being fined for every transgression created a feeling of being in school. Also think twice about going if you have a trailer.

South AfricaThe fact that there`s no staff or operational reception area. It was difficult to gain access to the premises and also to checkout since no one is stationed at a specific point to assist.

South AfricaVery steep terrain, not accessible for older people or those with disabilities. Didn't get the unit we booked although they compensated for it with spa treatments and some money back. However getting the place we booked would have been worth more.
View nice, staff friendly especially Margaret .

South AfricaThe owner is super rude, we booked with the price that we saw on Bookings, instead of them acknowledging and taking a full responsibility on their mistake they blamed us as if we are the ones who are doing their pricing here on Bookings. When they call the raise their voice, speaking to us as if we are small kids, they did not want to listen but to talk over us while we keep on saying even if it's not our problem we are willing to pay the amount they are changing to. Yhooo the owner yerrr very rude. I wouldn't advise people to go there she, I got disappointed period and ended up booking somewhere else after paying for what I saw on Booking.com.

South AfricaThe proper is actually outdated they use very old pictures to advertise the place is not serviced too many of the facility services do not function anymore, the pool is FILTHY they have their dogs roaming around you can't even chill outside and enjoy a snack because they are always everywhere sniffing around, the owners sent one of their workers to come tell us that we were breaking their chair when there was two of us sitting on it yet they didn't do that when this other white couple who sat next to us did the same mind you that couple are a lot bigger than us in body size...overall I would not recommend the place it's on a hill making it child unfriendly...The owners stay in the lodge you're restricted you can't walk around the yard coz you are invading "their space"👎🏾

South AfricaNothing to not like, not 5 star but offers extremely good value for money, amazing setting, fair accomodation, great pool area and great spa facilities. Budget prices but great value, our new hide away.
We arrive from Gauteng stressed and needed a break. When we arrive at our unit it was like a weight off our shoulders. Great deck and view from unit two. We had a good night's rest after a braai at our unit then rested in a quality bed with high quality comfortable bedding. Saturday we enjoyed spa treatments, professional staff and relaxing facilities. just what we needed to take the edge off. We booked the romantic couples get away and that is was indeed! We spent quality time as husband and wife while enjoying the beauty of Barberton and the uniqueness of Geo Trail Lodge and Spa. Our next trip is already booked !
