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.).

NetherlandsBook a room on lower level hah, the baboon's might run across the roof which was noisy but adventurous.
The location is absurd. This could not be topped. Wild elephants at the pool, very very nice breakfast and diverse dinner. Despite the size of the resort it felt very personal. The prive Safari was amazing. Price quality wise unmatched. Never mind, book this.

South AfricaAn experience of a lifetime, from the food, to the staff, to the room and the facilities. We enjoyed every moment of our stay from the moment we were welcomed to the moment we left. All I can say is if you get an opportunity to stay here, you should. It is a really great place to unwind and relax as a couple.

MozambiqueFor the value I expected the rooms more cosy. Maybe the decoration was a bit old school. And the rooms are too close to each others you could listen the noises from the other rooms.
Incredible Place!! The dinner and breakfast was amazing. All the common spaces were very well thought. The pool was a dream, you could see the animals wile swimming.

MaltaThat when the room was cleaned all bedding and towels were removed and then they moved to the next room, to only come back later. So if you wanted to shower etc because you were not out for the day, you had to request or wait until thye came back to finish your room
Breakfast and location were excellent

NetherlandsThis is a very minor thing, but the dinner is a buffet. It just doesn’t fit the look and feel of the hotel. A la carte would’ve fitted way better, but hey.. that’s just my opinion ;)
No doubt, everything was awesome, well organized and perfectly arranged. From breakfast to dinner, safari or just relaxing at the pool, everything is possible. The staff is incredibly friendly, and is very co-operative. In my honest opinion it’s worth a visit!

South AfricaRoom is beautiful, but lacks a few basic comforts: No bedside carpet/mat cold tiles shock when you wake up. No comfy chair with ottoman for TV. No desk chair for working. Proper living room carpet will be nice - there's just a small piece of plastic matting. Light's can't dim, full bright or nothing.
Breakfast and Dinner are both included and are very good and beautiful venues and excellent service. Airport transfers are comfortable with game viewing along the way if you're lucky. Hotel Safaris are well organised, guides are well trained and knowledgable. Good pools and pool side service.
