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 KingdomFinding the parking when we arrived was a bit tricky, but once we found it the valet service was very helpful and they would get our car whenever we needed it. The service in the restaurant was a bit slow at breakfast, but the staff were very friendly and the breakfast provided was excellent.
The hotel was superb, a lovely boutique hotel in the centre of town within walking distance of the key places we wanted to visit such as Bo-Kaap and the V&A waterfront.

United KingdomHonestly… nothing!
Everything! The service from the staff was incredible from the second we checked in - everyone was so helpful and beyond welcoming (it was mine and my sister’s first visit to Cape Town). Our room was spacious, clean, beautifully furnished and our bed was very comfortable. What took everything to the next level was the breakfast! It was Melbourne-quality breakfast and coffee, all included! We had brekkie at the cafe a few days but when we had early tours / day trips we were able to get room service (all included as part of our stay). The pool area - albeit a bit small - was very comfortable, clean and had a fantastic vibe.

The food was fantastic (a roasted whole fish) and Gabby delivered it herself. It was the first night of a very special trip after a long journey and it could not have been better!

Russiathe sound proofing isn't great, so if you have loud neighbors you'll know that...
The hotel is trendy so if you are into modern design this is a place for you. Well-designed rooms, very clean, nice minibar selection, all the right qualities for a boutique hotel. Small but lovely and picturesque swimming pool on the roof and of course the main feature is the roof top restaurant. It is phenomenal for breakfast. Ironically quality of food and service at breakfast which is included in the stay is much higher than we've experienced at dinner that we also had on the rooftop.

United KingdomThere was an unfortunate moment one afternoon with a staff member wanting to restock the mini bar in the room when we were having an afternoon nap. Other than that, the staff were warm and accommodating.
The property is design forward, in a really good way. Everywhere looks stylish, but is also functional. The rooms were spacious, and well thought out. Lots of extras like Netflix loaded, choux buns on turn down service, personalised amenities. The restaurant / bar / rooftop pool and sun loungers is a great addition, it would be a cool bar to go to even if you weren’t staying. We wanted a central location for a couple of nights so we could walk to restaurant Fyn and see a different part of Cape Town, but unless you have a reason to be in CBD, I wouldn’t recommend this location over the other great options in Cape Town, like Camps Bay, Constantia, etc. The secure car park was a bonus and very handy to have the valet service for that - was easy for us.

NetherlandsDepending on where your room is there can be quite some noise. We initially stayed 1 floor below the restaurant and found it disturbing when we wanted to go to bed. The street can be a little noisy in the day time too but that didn’t both us. Whilst friendly, some of the waiting staff were quite slow in bringing menus or taking orders even when the place wasn’t busy.
Really beautiful aesthetically. The rooms are lovely and the rooftop is stunning. Honestly though the breakfast was by far the best breakfast I have had in a hotel and rivals some of the best brunch places I’ve been to worldwide. Really nice to have a well made, a La carte breakfast!

United Kingdomnothing in particular, great hotel!
The hotel is SO conveniently located in central Cape Town, making it very easy to walk around town for a little explore. And also easy to get an uber to go to V&A waterfront or Table Mountain. The staff was very friendly, the room were SPLENDID! There's so much snack, gym and yoga equipment, the bathroom was enormous and the bed SO comfy! we had a living room our in room 201 and it was very quiet. The rooftop was a clear highlight for us, the cocktail and breakfast menus are outstanding and it was just great to be able to dip into that pool to take a break from the hot scorching sun! Would defo recommend and come back!

United KingdomNothing, we loved it all.
We spent the last two days of our honeymoon here and loved it. The staff went out of their way to make it special (including leaving chocolate and decorations in our room) and were very helpful. The room was nice and cool, despite being right in the city, and spotlessly clean. It's a great spot for getting around Cape Town. And the rooftop bar is the perfect spot for cocktails. We didn't want to leave!
