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 StatesGorgeous property surrounded by mountains, fruit orchards and vineyards, water, and a nature reserve. Property was about a 12 minutes drive into Franschhoek town, restaurants, and vineyards. What stood out was Tim’s exceptional hospitality. He was so helpful in planning our stay, making recommendations, making reservations, etc. He even helped us find and book a reservation at our next stop. Thanks, Tim! Would definitely come here again to rest and relax!

Amazing setting with river, mountains, fishing lake and wildlife, yet only 10-15 mins drive from Franschhoek for restaurants / supermarkets. Christopher was very helpful and gave my son a very memorable first fishing experience!

United StatesThe cabin is not suited to host three guests. Perhaps a child and two adults, but the sleeper couch is not nearly large enough or comfortable enough to accommodate an adult. For the price of the unit, this was very disappointing and I would not recommend renting this cabin for three, only two people. It should not be advertised for more than two people.
The location and staff were all lovely. Beautiful grounds and lovely accommodation.

GermanyWe loved it! A bit off the grid but exactly what we needed after Cape Town. The cottage was well equipped and the owner, Tim, was just the best. Super responsive and helpful with Transport, Info , etc. If you look for a place to relax and explore the area but still want to be away from the trouble, La Ferme is perfect

Lovely place to stay! So calm and quiet, in the middle of the wonderful nature, yet not far from Paarl and Franschoek. The farm itself is so cute, and the house the most charming “tree-house”. Everything was truly great during our stay! Can only warmly recommend it.

GermanyBeautiful cottages at a riverside close to the nature reserve. Still very close to the beautiful village of Franschhoek with its restaurants, shops and coffee shops. Its like spending time in the back country in the middle of nature and in 5 minutes you're in the heart of a beautiful vibrant village. The cottages are well equipped, spaced out for privacy, quiet, romantic, comfortable. We will be back soon!

We had 4 amazing days and we are definitely coming back in the future. The house was very spacious and close to a small mountain river, which we bathed in when it was hot outside, it was perfect! You can really find peace and are not disturbed by anything. We slept so good during the night, the bed was amazing and the aircons were lovely during the hottest days. We cooked breakfast in the morning, had a braai.. and the service/communication was excellent. It was just perfect!Thanks for everything Tim!
