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 AfricaWe only stayed for 1 night unfortunately!
The room was clean and tidy, the staff were friendly and helpful (thank you Gladys!) and the views were beautiful. If peace is what you're looking for, you'll find it here.

South AfricaThe dam in front of the accommodation was not productive in regards fishing and the other dams only by float-tube (although you can rent these). We were on our way back from Dullstroom and I have to say that the fishing does not hold a candle to that of Dullstroom (selected areas of course). It might be a good idea to have some ventilation in the huts since not everyone realises that they need to crack a window when the fireplace is going. No internet and you need to bring your own decoder if you want to watch TV (which I cannot imagine you would want to...)
Nice wood accommodations close to the trout waters. Ample wood and cozy fireplace. Gas backup is provided in case of load shedding.

South AfricaPower outage from 6am to 11am every morning put a damper on things but there is a gas stove to make coffee in that time.
Cosy cottage tucked away in the mountains, with unlimited wood supply to keep the fireplace burning on those cold winter days (and nights). The host was patient with us and made sure to direct us to the cottage well after our expected ETA.

South AfricaNot a fault of the venue, but the farm roads leading to it can pose a challenge for vehicles without off-road capabilities. Heavy rains meant our car had some slippery trouble climbing up a hill and over some muddy farm roads. However, Josie, the hostess came to our rescue and helped us navigate through the hazard by coming out to meet us and driving ahead. A vehicle with high clearance recommended. 4x4 ideally, especially when it's wet.
Rustic, wooden cabins nestled in a grove of pine trees overlooking a quaint little valley with trout fishing dams. Lots of bird-life, including a really cute family of ducks living their best lives on the water. I believe we also spotted some fish eagles, monkeys and dozens of other birds and animals. The biodiversity is really wild! The owners have cultivated an absurdly picturesque place filled to the brim with dozens of different types of flora and fauna. It's got just the right mix of wild and serene. Amazing.

South AfricaIf you have a small car, it’s not as easily accessible but still doable
This property is located on an avo farm just outside Haenertsburg. The lodgers cabin we stayed in was perched on top of the mountain where you have a spectacular view when the sun is out. Although there is no electricity, you hardly noticed it with the solar lights and the ever stoked donkey for warm water. They were kind enough to make sure there always is enough wood to keep the fires going and filtered fresh water to drink.
