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 AfricaA few extra amenities would help make the stay more homely, such as hand wash in the kitchen, additional garbage bags for the bin, some newer pans for cooking, and perhaps a bit of fumigation as there were a few creepy crawlers (Doom was provided though). But these minor details did not hamper our enjoyment of the stay at all and we would stay again.
The golf estate is amazing, absolutely beautiful. The home is very comfortable and it was a pleasure to stay there. It was great to go for walks around the estate and the golf course, as well as walk around town. The golf course is fantastic, for those interested it costs roughly R700 for a round of 18 plus a cart during the week. It is a beautiful course and a lot of fun to play on (bad golfers, like me, beware, the course is ball magnet, I lost at least 8 balls during my round). All in all this is a fantastic little home to stay in and would recommend it for anyone. We had our 9-month old with us and he loved it.

South AfricaNo wifi available. No back up power during load shedding, but it didn’t bother or affect us.
We loved our stay here! Underfloor heating, electric blankets and a lovely fire place to make it nice and cosy in middle of winter. Beautiful views, quiet and safe. Close to town. Lovely place for a weekend away in Clarens! We will stay here again.

South AfricaNothing, the place was lovely. From the tranquility, to the secure location over looking the mountains. Everything was alright.
The heated floors, the security and feel of being home. The lack of a garage wasn't a bad thing but I did have a minor issue with something but the owner resolved it. I would recommend the place to anyone else. I had a good time and am willing to revisit.

South AfricaTo pay separately for the gas use for the lounge heater was not made known beforehand. The property description said there is a heater in the lounge without mentioning the extra cost. The price charged for a bottle filled with gas is much more than the market related price and you must pay for a full bottle, even if you can never use up the gas during an overnight stay.
The weather was ice cold but the house was nice and warm, underfloor heating switched on, electric blankets available and gas heater in lounge. Felt snugly warm and welcome immediately. Cutlery, crockery , bedding, everything was top notch.

United KingdomNothing. We loved it. Be aware that there is no WIFI (I forgot to check when booking) but I used my friend's mobile hotspot on the rare occasion that I needed to. It was actually quite nice to be internet-free for a couple of days. Cafes in town have wifi if you're really desperate.
Lovely cottage with heated bedding and floors in bathroom and kitchen. Fantastic views and location to the town and Golden Gate National Park. We visited the hide just as the vultures were feeding on a zebra. It was a major highlight of our short visit so felt very blessed. We were hit by a sudden cold spell so the warm house was wonderfully cosy. The town is very quant and pretty and I was delighted to find five varieties of tomato jam, which is surprisingly hard to get hold of in the bigger cities like Pretoria. I can't comment on the self-catering facilities as we opted to eat out at Clementines both nights. But I'm sure we would not have experienced any issues if we had tested the cooking facilities. Security is top notch and the place felt very secure and safe. Would absolutely stay here again.
