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 AfricaNothing I didn't like. Noticed comments were people marked down their experience due to the condition of the roads... some are bad but I think the gravel roads just add to the charm of Clarens. We went there with two cars, one a suv and the other a small Hyundai i10. The i10 managed the roads perfectly - just take care though.
What an amazing holiday home. My only regret is that we only stayed there for 2 nights. Would have loved to have stayed there for a week at least. Clarens is a gem and Golden View an awesome place to stay. Will definitely go back. Thanks to Lizelle and her team for being so efficient and welcoming.

South AfricaAt night the branches scratched the roof which created some noise but everything else was amazing!
Loved the setting, the quaint decor and the feeling of being out in nature yet close enough to the Clarens town that you could walk and did not need to drive.

South AfricaI cannot say as I had did my research in terms of what to expect in the town. The roads were a bit rough, however it could all be put down to the rain experienced lately.
The location was perfect for the weekend getaway with my partner away from the hustle and bustle of the big city

South AfricaThe road the property is on is very bad due to the rain so our car took some strain. We stayed in the couple's studio and because we had people staying in the house above us we heard people walking the whole time and we also didn't get to experience the view that was advertised as it is on the house accomodations side. Some comfy outside furniture is needed, we were housebound because it was so uncomfortable outside and a wall blocked the view, so that was disappointing coming from Joburg.
The apartments have all the luxuries and the finest qualities, it was very clean and comfy. Free Wifi and daily cleaning and a close walk to the main street in Clarens.
