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.).

This fully self catering cottage was well appointed and situated on the quiet outskirts of Underberg. Very nicely appointed, with everything one needs and a lovely view of the Moluti mountains in the distance. Host Barry was friendly and chatty. We ate dinner at the country club over the road which was very good. No breakfast was offered as per their advert. I would be happy to stay there again.

South AfricaThe weather was rainy and cold while there, so we didn't manage to hike in the berg as planned, but did enjoy exploring the surrounds. The cottage is really comfortable so we still had a relaxing break.
This is in such a beautiful setting and so peaceful. Barry is really helpful and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. He gave us ideas on where to go as well.

United KingdomFantastic quiet location with great views across the mountains.Hosts made us feel very welcome. The property was different as there were no high walls and security features. Which was nice and not necessary, we felt very comfortable and safe. Kitchen had everything you needed to make a meal. Hosts made us feel very welcome. Barry also booked our trip to Sani Pass which was an unforgettable experience.

South AfricaThe only negative was that the bathroom had a concertina door - when the door is closed, there are gaps at the top and bottom of the door. Other than that, the property was excellent.
The view was incredible. We met Barry when we arrived, he was really friendly and made sure we had everything that we needed. He let us know that he had no one scheduled to stay after us so we could have a later check-out which was highly appreciated. The apartment is cosy and looked after well. The facilities were clean, the kitchenette is fully stocked with a kettle, microwave, toaster, fridge and all cutlery and crockery. The property is located just off the main road, on a well-maintained dirt road. There is a dam - I think it's on the property - that's a short walk away and we were looking forward to seeing that on the Sunday morning but I woke up sick and decided to sleep in instead. If we're in Underberg again, we will definitely stay here again.
