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 KingdomNot really a criticism but Isandlwana isn't the easiest place to get to. We had a lot of load shedding when I was there, not the fault of the lodge
Beautiful lodge in gorgeous setting. Friendly owners and staff. Lovely food. My room was spacious and comfortable

United KingdomEverything was perfect There is even a small gift shop with reasonably priced souvenirs .
Perfect location to relax and experience South Africa. The staff were all brilliant. Excellent and thoughtful little touches such as hot water bottles in our bed, soft towelling robes, cookies in room baked by the chef, even washed our car before we left. Food was amazing. Binoculars provided to see the stars. Tour arranged to visit Rorkes Drift. Will definitely be back and highly recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing stay and experience South African history.

South AfricaThe driving aspect, road signage was not clear.
The signage to the location is not clear you get lost too easily coming there for the first time directions need to be made clearer please especially for those coming there fore the first time. The staff were helpful, polite organized and they were expecting us which made is extra special.

United KingdomThe proximity to the battlefields was amazing, as was the view across to the mountain. Staff were welcoming as well as accomodating. The hot water bottles in the bed at night was a great touch.

United KingdomThere are basics that were just not right. We booked a guided tour of Isandlwana and Rourke's Drift battlefields with the hotel before our trip. On arriving, the guide (who was excellent) told us that the hotel had said that we were to use our car! After much deliberation we did as it was just the two of us plus guide. Please check with the hotel if you book in this way as Rourke's Drift is 25k away along very unmade roads - we were told by the hotel that their car was being repaired but had been so for months. We were told that there was no wifi despite the website saying it was available. A generator was not available to cover load shedding (scheduled power cuts). No coffee was available in one morning.
The lodge is extremely well located with great views over the mountain and the expansive valley from the wide balconies and sitting areas across the property. The lodge is very well laid out, well maintained (but see comments below) and the staff are very friendly and efficient
