How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

-Rooms are functional but way too small, especially if you stay more than 2-3 days. There is no dedicated wardrobe, no enclosed area for bathroom. It is different modules for each, the sink is in the room and it is weird if you want privacy as you hear all the sounds. -There is no minibar/fridge in the rooms and they don’t sell anything after 22:30. since the options in the late evening are very limited in Cape Town due to the insecurity, it is pity not to have any decent options offered by the hotel. -There is no kettle in the room. so you have to go outside to take hot water from the coffee machines in the floor to make yourself a tea. -Coffee machines are not enough for a good quality coffee. -Bed is really uncomfortable and the air conditioning doesn’t function the best.
-Location is good, close to the city center and Waterfront even by 10-15 min walking. -The room is being cleaned every day. -Having an open, small patio area in front of the hotel is a nice option. There is always security but when you leave the patio especially after the sky is dark, it might be dangerous and full of beggars. -Breakfast is decent, 7/24 usable coffee machines on each floor is a good idea. They also offer water at the reception and the water is purified in the room so you can always drink it.

Recommendation: consider attaching clients meals/ extra services to their rooms so that they pay them ONCE on check-out. Paying for a meal or snack everytime you have it gives clients "unnecessary" transaction costs which are a bit higher on visa cards.
My "home" whenever I am in Cape Town. The complementary coffee machines at each floor of the building always make my days- Cappuccino anytime I want it! Courteous staff. Fresh food

I enjoyed my 5 days stay with my daughter in this hotel. The staff here are very friendly and very prompt to the guest request using the watsup message . I was made aware that watsupp is the form of communication in the hotel. When they say they are watsup away,they mean exactly that. The reception ladies there,are for keeps.

Location is good for city centre. However cape town city centre is not always the safest. Nice patio area out the front than can be used and feels safe as there is always security people there, however use with caution. The area during daytime seems safe, but in the evening / night time there are a lot of people just standing around in the shadows and groups of young males. So pre booked taxi to anywhere is advisable.
Nice modern interiors. Small foyer and breakfast area but well appointed and not over crowded. Rooms were small but functional and nice and bright with big windows. Breakfast was excellent and staff were super friendly.centrally located.

The hotel is very nice in the centre of the city not far from the Waterfront. I liked the terace where you could have a meal or drink.

My room was at the back, no view, I felt like it was dark or I was in a whole. I m afraid of closed places. If you can consider my request next time I can be happy.
The breakfast was good, staff was friendly, loving nd caring, from the security man to everyone. The rooms were clean, well ventilated and safe. The location is superb.
