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 KingdomNothing the only recommendation l would give to future visitors is to use an SUV vehicle. You are far into the Karoo on rough gravel roads. The Mont Eco team were very kind and helped us on the difficult roadway.
Everything was superb, the comfort and luxury of each lodge, outstanding food exceptional friendly staff. Charles who took us out on the game drives was exceptionally knowledgeable about the animals as well as the flora and fauna., and we had closer viewings of 4 of the big 4. We only missed seeing a leopard. This was a stay that will leave a lifetime of memories.

IrelandNothing - it was perfect.
We had a magical stay here! The room was probably the most beautiful hotel room we’ve ever been in - the attention to detail was incredible and it’s obvious that no expense has been spared even down to the mattress and the bedding. The lodge is spectacular with beautiful fires, candles and sofas and an amazing game room. The game drives were incredible - we saw so much and loved the hot water bottles and the breaks for drinks in the most beautiful locations. The food was delicious and so beautifully presented with wildflower table settings at each meal. The best thing was the service and the people - Pauline, Nugent, Innocent, Charles , Terrence, Mischa (and everyone else , so sorry we didn’t get your names) - you made our stay absolutely magical. The passion all of you have for what you do is incredible and we were genuinely so sad to leave! We can’t wait to return!

South AfricaThis is not a 5* lodge. The suites are extremely cold in winter, in fact unbearable! There is no effective insulation. While the fireplace can warm the main bedroom when there is sufficient wood (there was not enough wood, despite repeatedly requesting more, making the mornings terrible), the bathrooms are unbearable all the time and there is no method or option to heat the bathrooms. The service and offerings were well below standard for a lodge that is advertised as luxurious and priced accordingly. We had to handle our own luggage, (arrival and departure), i.e. on one of the days we were requested to arrive for lunch at 13h00 (which we promptly did), a table was set outside on the patio, and yet there was zero staff to be found until 13h25. This was after the 3rd time walking around the lodge to find someone to assist us. The lunch menu included coffee, yet when we ordered it, we were told the coffee machine was off and it would take 20 minutes to warm up. Prior to arrival, we were requested to advise our drink choices, we indicated orange juice for breakfast, but, there was only apple juice. The snacks (only rusks on the morning drive and biltong on the afternoon drive) plus drinks, were very poorly executed. There is no TV or Bluetooth speaker in the suite, and since there is no aircon, there is no white noise, this makes the atmosphere in the room very dull and boring. While we can appreciate that this is a wildlife lodge, in winter there is nothing to do between the 2 x daily game drives and meals. While the lodge is promoted as an all-inclusive resort, we were presented with a single lumpsum beverages bill, considering we only drank the house wine and 2 coke zero and there was no alcohol or beverage price list. I found it unprofessional to present an unitemized bill. While I know the lodge opened to paying guests in April this year, this lodge is seriously lacking in professional management and trained staff.
The location, and overall aesthetic design, were excellent. The game rangers were extremely knowledgeable, very friendly and professional. The chef produced some excellent food, however, he also, unfortunately, produced a couple of really poorly executed dishes.
