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 AfricaThey have beautiful antique furniture, which I must add gives the lodge a lot of character, but perhaps too many pieces in the room we stayed in which makes it a bit crowded.
The owners are always present and make sure you are well looked after. The breakfast and dinner were delicious! The Lodge is tucked away in a quiet corner of the Champagne Valley with beautiful views of Cathkin Peak.

BelgiumFirst that we had to leave after only two nights. Second some minor details: dusty behind the bed, a pool towel the first day that was a bit smelly and the second day it was a bit dirty. But... what disturbed/annoyed me the most was that they work with a third company to handle the payments/indemnity. These people were pushy/importunate. Asking to provide credit card details thru websites I've never heard of. Furthermore, they lacked professionalism (forgetting stuff, asking things twice). This company would be the only reason for me not to book this stay again.
The stay was fantastic...on a dream location in a magnificent building. Ryan and Princess were super kind, such great people. Taking a swim in the infinity pool during sunset. Price/quality of the food & wine is really good. Diner was fantastic... Personal approach once we were there. Good tips from the manager/the warm welcome of Princess

South AfricaWe had a great expierience at Inkungu Lodge this weekend. Staff were very friendly and professional! They were accommodating to our requests and even polite when we called prior to our arrival. The vintage style of the lodge and bedrooms are so unique and timeless. Dinner and breakfast were fantastic and the location is ideal.

South AfricaWith the very cold weather I would have expected an electric blanket in our room.
A real gem of a lodge so close to the mountains. Great facilities. Nice breakfast and dinner. Beautiful Lodge with pool, bar and interior. Fantastic antique furniture everywhere. Super staff. Close parking.

South AfricaThe room was slightly overcrowded, but maybe because it is the smallest in the lodge. No electric plugs behind the beds which make the use of appliances (mobile phone chargers etc.) a bit awkward having one outlet with numerous needs for that plug.
The location for our purposes was ideal. The view from the lounge area towards the mountain was just incredible. Kelly and Ryan were very friendly and helpful with any request we had.

South AfricaGary & Megan were exceptional hosts. I was very well taken care of especially after my mountain cycling accident. Gary helped me find a walking stick. Helped me from my car into the guest house. Served me wine. Megan helped me with ice packs & checked on me everyday. Megan also arranged special menu for me. It was a home away from home. I’d like to say a huuuge thank you to both Gary & Megan for being outstanding hosts. Most comfortable stay I’ve had. I’ll definitely be back.
