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.).

We loved the spacious ambience and the cosy and at the same time modern interior, everything seems chosen with love and taste but not too "chic". We loved the fantastic view and the relaxing loneliness. We ordered breakfast, lunch or barbecue baskets. These were prepared and presented with love and care - and just delicious!!! The Drakensberge are THE hiking resort for small and long hikes. For any issue , Kerry and her husband were available and helpful at any time.

South AfricaNada, Niete, Nothing. Everything was perfect! If there is a minor thing: we would have loved sunbeds to fully indulge in the stunning setting and recharge.
Everything! The stay in our cottage exceeded pur expectations by far! The rooms look exactly like illustrated, while the setting is even more stunning and hard to capture with a camera. It is truly a stunning hideaway and we wished we could have stayed longer than three nights. The cottage, the surrounding and above all the lovely hosts made this the highlight of our trip in South Africa. I have bookmarked this spot and will for SURE be back! Make sure to book the baskets and/or pies. The food is curated with a lot of thought and super yummy. The location is great to explore the larger Drakensberg area, although you will find it hard to leave the stunning setting.

GermanyThe cottage is located on a Farm, outside from Bergville, so a car is definitely needed, but a small one is sufficient. The setting of the cottage is quite nice with good views. The interior has all needed for a self-catering stay. The hosts are very friendly and available all the time during our stay and very helpful. We can recommend a stay at Kezliyn's and would love to come back!!

BelgiumThe cottage has a spacious garden with a beautiful view of the Drakensberg mountains. You have access to a well-equipped kitchen, but I highly recommend barbecueing. As mentioned, there are two rooms, each with a shower. Everything is very clean and tidy, and is also nicely cleaned every day. Thumbs up for the cleaning services. The hostess is helpful and provides plenty of information on things to do. I would say, go for a walk and explore.

South AfricaWe stayed in Hoopoe, the first cottage of three. Bit difficult to manoeuver around in the small bathroom with a shelf above the basin causing an obstacle when brushing your teeth. Otherwise the kitchen and braai facilities have everything you might need.
The environment is superb. Getting fresh mountain air into our lungs, not hearing any traffic or human noise was magnificent. Just a tranquil, beautiful Drakensberg setting with ample birdlife and farm scenery. Bergville is 8 minutes drive and Winterton a quick 20 km further. And getting into the center of Central Drakensberg takes 40 minutes by car. Sitting outside in the garden in deep comfortable chairs, watching the stars is amazing. Sublime!
