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 stayed for 5 nights and one was new years eve. There was a church service right next to our tent in the restaurant which went from 11pm to 2am. Would have like to be informed in advance of this it was very loud and we couldn't sleep. We did understand it was new years eve but still would have liked to be informed. Although the boards at the property promote and strictly forbid loud noise and music it is not adhered to or enforced. The luxury tent that we booked was covered in shade cloth around it, while it protects from the sun. It offers no protection from rain at all and the little kitchenette was always wet as it rained everyday and we couldn't sit in the stoep as we would get soaked because of the rain. They need to change this. In the 5 nights we stayed they did not change our beddings which was a schlep and also the bathroom mat was not good. Nor did they clean or offer services.
I loved the natural beauty of the surroundings.

South AfricaThe fact that there is a huge board stating NO DRINKING AND NO LOAD MUSIC. DISPUTE THE OWNER DRIVING PAST HOW MANY TIMES BUT THEY DONT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. We hardly slept because of people around us partying until who knows what time in the morning hours. Secondly the toilets hardly work. There is no hot water when you phone who ever on duty they dont pitch. I wont be going back there.

South AfricaIt was middle of winter our tent had a hige gap above the door and more gaps/openings on sides where beds were. No heater..it was freezing..long hours of loadshedding. Also didnt put me in the tented area I requested when booking .. away on open lawns.

The atmosphere, the area the camp itself its beautiful, clean and peaceful. Our host was amazing from the 1st day we arrived till departure she made sure that we had everything and had nothing to complain with. Regular checks to see if we are still okay. She went out of her way to make us happy and we were.

South AfricaBooking through Bookings.com. Sabie River Camp was super amazing.
Everything was amazing except booking through Bookings.com. I placed a booking 5 months ago for 6 adults and Bookings.com only placed an order for 4 adults. This money was also paid 5 months ago. This also happened to 2 other families that booked through Bookings.com. I think it's only fair that Bookings.com pay the difference as this is their mistake. I will never use Bookings.com again.
