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 had booked the smallest room which was small particularly the bed but luckily it opened up onto the pool deck so we didn’t feel too cramped.
Great location within walking distance to restaurants, bars, coffee shops and the promenade. Decor is gorgeous- stylish and homely with fantastic attention to detail. Staff were friendly and helpful. Delicious breakfast.

Very stylishly decorated. The staff were incredible, very friendly, and bent over backward to make our stay enjoyable. Our room was downstairs with no view and we felt a little closed in but that did not ruin our stay! Amazing breakfast menu, the bar was open all hours and we felt very safe walking the neighborhood. It was about 1km up from the main Sea Point promenade.

GermanyLovely little hotel with an awesome breakfast (fresh fruits and egg meals to order), great location in sea point in walking distance to the sea and nice restaurants, safe neighborhood to walk around, super stylish and cosy interior, very attentive and friendly staff, free parking, very clean, comfortable bed and nice bathroom. Perfect location for a city stay, as long as you don’t expect a beach holiday. Would definitely go there again!

South AfricaThe only thing that could be improved on is the bedding: bigger pillows (king size or fluffier pillows) as the ones that we used were thin and did not give enough support, as well as an extra blanket or duvet in addition to the one on the bed. Other than that all was perfect.
Sitauted within walking distance from local restaurants and the beachfront. Beautiful decor and a stylish venue. Great staff who were multi-tasking away from cooking breakfast to being front of house. A lovely room with an amazing view of Lion's Head. It was perfect for our needs.

South AfricaSuch a beautiful boutique hotel set so conveniently in Sea Point. The decor, look and feel of Pineapple House is so thoughtfully put together and gently luxurious. We loved the attention to detail and the spaciousness of our room. Wonderful fragrance of their bespoke amenities with their quirkily labelled generous bottles were just one of the lovely surprises we kept discovering throughout our stay. Most comfortable bed so beautifully styled, so much cupboard space and a wonderfully spacious bathroom with a bath and double shower. We loved the thought provoking art and obje displayed all around the hotel and the clever and super comfortable layering of the interiors. Team of staff were absolutely wonderful and ensured that everything was perfect and peaceful for our stay. Easy check in, delicious breakfast displayed every morning in the pretty dining area with a huge choice of both what we wanted to choose and have cooked for us. We had secured parking at the hotel. Highly recommend this little gem and will be sure to be back.

GermanyWe really enjoyed every minute of our stay at the Pineapple House. We stayed here for 5 nights and would have stayed even longer. The hotel itself is just beautiful. We were lucky to be upgraded to a spacious room with a private terrace with views of Lions Head and Table Mountain. The service was outstanding. Everyone was so lovely and we enjoyed chatting with the staff. Breakfast was great as well with a mix of cold and hot dishes. Everything was freshly prepared and very tasty. I can’t recommend this place enough.

South AfricaThe room I stayed in needs block out curtains- no privacy, as it overlooks a patio that’s open for use by all guests. The sliding door/ blinds still has gaps so one can see into the room - as I could see the people outside when closed. There were only sheer curtains for “privacy” - I found this super uncomfortable. Block outs would solve the issue.
Really beautifully designed and decorated - Didn’t have time to enjoy breakfast, but it looked fab

The staff are fantastic. The atmosphere is so warm and welcoming, like a home away from home but still not too much. The rooms and lounges are so beautiful with an incredible sense of colours and feeling for design but not impersonal, very warm. The breakfast is something outstanding as well!
