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 additional process of paying the deposit and signing of documents outside of the booking.com process. Oh, and the place doesn't have WiFi
The place was very clean and beautiful. It had everyone we needed. The place even had a beautiful outside area. It's definitely a winner. We had the whole huge house to ourselves.

South AfricaThat the 2 single beds were not in a space that was particularly private. Even with the available doors closed the entrance to that space from the kitchen cannot be closed off. We made it work and had a great time all the same.
Loved the spaciousness! Was great to be able to spend wonderful time with friends and family. The 2 dogs with the friends enjoyed the big garden.

South AfricaThe 3rd bedroom wasn't private as it was open in a walkthrough area. The property wasn't fully fenced as there are openings in the fence where the dogs could get out.
The view was amazing. The kitchen had everything we needed. The house is beautiful.

South AfricaWhile Golden Cove offers a splendid opportunity to explore the beauty of the Golden Gate and the charming town of Clarens, catering well to groups including adults and children, our experience was marred by significant service challenges. From the outset, securing a booking confirmation was unexpectedly difficult, with persistent confusion over the location being identified as Uvongo rather than the correct location. This confusion nearly jeopardized our trip, despite booking a month in advance. Additionally, the process to reclaim our R1000 deposit was notably slow, taking seven weeks and requiring multiple follow-ups. While the accommodation itself is ideally situated for hikers and visitors to Clarens, the customer service aspects deeply impacted our overall experience.

South AfricaThe attitude of the booking agent was bureaucratic and judgemental without hearing both sides of the discussion. The facilities lacked basic amenities such as a bin and my guests had to sleep with an unlocked kitchen door. The local agent said that dishes will be washed by his cleaning staff and we piled it in the sink only to receive a photograph of it by the booking agent with a sarcastic comment. Surely it's acceptable practice to leave dishes in the sink if the cleaning staff is employed to clean them.
Casper the local agent was friendly, understanding, logical and practical.

South AfricaOne has to deive to get to the town’s activities. BUT most importantly, hot water in the showers are hit and miss. Quite often it’s icy cold. We stayed at the same property about 9 years ago and experienced the same issues back then.
