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 AfricaNext to the N2...you can't believe what a beautiful setting just 2.5 km away from the gate! Safe and secure; stunning views of the valley and Big Fish river. Accomodation top class: the mattress and bedding superior, the bathrooms só beautiful and a bath with the most stunning view! Our host waited for us at the gate, and showed us around and then we had the place all to ourselves. A real treat it was !

South AfricaBreakfast needs to be arranged in advance if staying in self catering. The beautiful cliffside pool is not accessible if staying in self catering. Absolutely nothing to do such as 5km trail walks etc.
Extremely tranquil. Loved the indoor braai facilties. Loved the communal area. Our bedroom was great.

South AfricaAlthough we were able to use the main lodge amenities on the Friday evening, it would be a lot better if the facilities are available to all guests even if you choose the self-catering option.
The tranquility of the Chalets are great! Also the views are really good.

BelgiumWe paid for full board and got half board. One month in advance I informed the manager about specific diet but upon arrival the kitchen staff was not informed. A tasteless, simple 3 course diner was rushed through our stomachs in half an hour, kitchen staff clearly wanted to get home asap. When we got up in the morning our diner table was still there as we left it, so not cleared and cleaned up. Breakfast was poor and this time they cleared the table while we were still eating,we even did not get the chance to drink a second cup of tea. The swimming pool is not a pool but a small square bath you can sit in. The bathroom is not ensuite so you have to go outside to go to it. If you see the huge size of the room a bathroom could easily have been integrated in the room. We did the early morning game drive, quite pricey for the short ride and few animals we saw.
Very comfortable beds and nicely decorated room. Nice view from the private terrace and room on the river and park. Well stocked bar in the restaurant area.
