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 KingdomI was a little disappointed with the breakfast. Very limited choices. Didn’t like the fruit selection and the way it was chopped so small. Also lack of cereal . My husband likes to have a choice of cereal and didn’t appreciate the only one was already added to yogurt. Staff were a little standoffish. Also first morning you couldn’t here yourself for loud music
It was lovely and quiet with a beautiful view. The room was nicely decorated and very comfortable. We loved sitting on the balcony listening to the waves.

South AfricaThe staff were extremely friendly and helpful, especially Siya at the front desk. The hotel is beautiful and right next to the ocean, it was unfortunate that I visited out of whale season, but I'm pretty certain that you can watch the whales from the comfort of the hotel or just walk across the road. The area is very safe, so you can even take a stroll to the local stores. It felt like a home away from home, the room I stayed in was very spacious, with beautiful decor and views. They have the most charming restaurant which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner - you can see the ocean from the restaurant as well. There are many facilities onsite, including a lounge, reading area and cinema where you can request movies and sit back with popcorn for as long as you like. They also offer activities out of the hotel like tours. All in all, a very gorgeous family run hotel with the most efficient staff, in the most beautiful location.

Fantastic hotel, mixes modern facia with the old, beautifully done, the owners, very hands on and approachable, the staff were very friendly and helpful, and the room, 106, was superb, and position A1. Breakfast included, in the Heritage restaurant, was great, and the staff there were also very good. Overall if I could have given them a score of 20 instead of 10, I would, as it was a fantastic experience, we love Hermanus, been there many times and would fully recommend a stay in Misty Waves

Beautiful modern room in a superb hotel - the upstairs lounge has fantastic views for sunset. It’s a short walk to town and opposite Ficks pool, a great place for cocktails and tapas. The staff at the hotel were excellent and ensured we had everything we needed, particularly reception who had us settled quickly into our room and answered all our questions.
