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 AfricaThe weather which wasn't their fault! Check-in was a bit confusing as when I messaged to ask if we could come earlier they said yes, then when we got there they said we can't check in till 2pm. I think it was a miscommunication due to the language barrier though.
Stunning room, amazing views. Pool is great just wish we had better weather so we could've used it. They have one of the best breakfasts EVER! Highly recommend, def will be back when the weather is better so we can use the facilities and enjoy the view.

South AfricaWe had no complaints, but take into account that the accommodation is far up on the mountain and while this is part of the charm and exceptional view, you'll have to travel by car to any activity. Sedgefield is down the mountain, so not really an issue.
There is a truly breathtaking view from the room and dining areas. The room is large with a exceptional bed, it is tastefully decorated with a proper size bathroom. It was rainy and we only booked for one evening, so we did not get to utilize the pool or enjoy some of the other activities on offer, but this was truly a pleasant surprise on our road trip. The road up the mountain was also easily accessible with a low clearance vehicle. We had a lovely 3 course dinner upon prior arrangement. You also get to enjoy an exceptional breakfast with the most stunning view imaginable. I would label this an hidden gem.

South AfricaWe did not get the room we booked. The situation was handled very poorly by the manager. Booking.com was blamed for the error. We were not informed of the dinner option prior to check in. We were not provided with any Wi-Fi login details.
Location has stunning views. Breakfast was excellent. Beautiful presentation. Welcome was very warm and friendly. Lovely welcome drink. We received a complimentary bottle of champagne. Vespa and John are both very well trained and professional.

United StatesNot a complaint but a note for other guests: I was texted earlier in the day to inquire if I wanted to join for dinner - but I was driving all day and I don't have data on my phone. I texted back using wifi at a cafe on a driving break, but apparently my response didn't go through, so I was unable to have dinner when I arrived. This is not the property's fault - I should've bought data for my phone! I just wanted to mention this in case you are driving or unable to text - perhaps message Kambaku the day before to arrange for dinner! It sounded delicious.
This place is heavenly. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. They pay attention to every detail. I loved the pool; it was lovely to take a swim after a long drive. There are plenty of places to sit and enjoy the view across the property. Other things to enjoy during your stay: Binoculars, books, games, walk of the gardens. The breakfast was INCREDIBLE – pace yourself through the courses so you have room to try everything! Thank you for a lovely stay; I will be back with all my friends in the near future.
