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 AfricaWindow not able to open in spare toilet and one of the bedrooms.
We had a lovely stay in the Karoo cottage. The house is positively unique. We were all fully relaxed by the end of the weekend and could have stayed another day. I would love to go back in winter to experience the fire in the kitchen / dining room.

Wow, what an amazing place. Absolutely everything was fantastic. Electric blankets and heaters in every room. Fireplaces with plenty of wood. Coffee machine and plunger. Nevermind Koos who fixed our puncture with a smile. I could spend a month here, so beautiful.

South AfricaNo electrical backup for load shedding.
Awesome Karoo farm house accommodation in the middle of the breathtaking Karoo landscape! Renovated old Karoo farm house with generous rooms. Accommodation and facilities were all superb with everything one would need for a weekend or longer stay. Bedding and beds were great. Quiet, clean, well maintained and well kept. Lovely expansive Karoo landscape to area to hike or bike in. We will definitely we back for longer!

South AfricaWe drove from Nieu-Bethesda side after site seeing. Not recommended if you do not have a vehicle capable of off road use. The road from Middelburg is much easier. Keep in mind that loadshedding will still find you here. The cottage has candles and lanterns to use however take more rechargeable lights.
An unforgettable experience at the Karoo cottage. The friendly staff, flowers and gifts made us feel very welcome. We enjoyed our morning breakfast on the stoep while looking out on the reserve. The unit is fully equipped and caters for all your needs. The avid Braai master will be happy with the large fireplace, utensils and wood provided. We loved our stay and especially enjoyed cooling off in the pool. Thank you to all at Sneeuberg for going the extra mile and making our stay so memorable.

South AfricaCame across some old rusted wire on the cycling trails here and there. Getting the shower to the right temperature was a bit fiddly.
Peaceful and quiet. Loadshedding helped us to disconnect digitally too! Beautiful Blue Cranes. Awesome game viewing. We loved cycling on the trails and awesome views. Pristine dark skies. The linen was superb too.
