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 AfricaThe mosquito blood on the ceilings and walls in the family unit was not welcoming. The walls and ceilings definitely need a good paint or thorough cleaning. I would suggest upgrading the kitchenette to self-catering, especially for long stays.
Loved everything about the place.

South AfricaThe mosquitoes and flys had us irritated but we got some mosquitoe plug in liquid repellent, which helped alot. Thank you for spray can of Doom, which we put to use.
We stayed for 3 nights at the family suite, family of four. The scenery was good and picturesque. Good view of the dams on the property. Enjoyed the wildebeest, zebras, springboks that was on the property. Well maintained property with maintenance staff who was "on the ball"...very impressed...mowing the lawns, trimming the hedges, etc. The suite was cleaned every day. No problems with cleanliness. We did have a problem of not having hot water on the first day but staff came out promptly to resolve the problem. Had no further problems thereafter with hot water supply. Well done to staff who helped to resolve! My child had a bit of a fall and staff was helpful in getting some medical supplies to deal with the scraps. The pool on the property looked very inviting. The rooms where great. Bathrooms excellent. Toilets excellent. The little kitchenette was functional. The BOMA supplies great food at St Ives....we enjoyed it.

South AfricaThe Wifi was terrible. Didn't work most of the time and just overall network coverage was poor. I didn't see any barbecue facilities in our suite. There were no phones to call reception if we needed to. We used our own, hoping we would get through and lucky we did. There could have been some Christmas decor in the suite as it's only a few weeks from Christmas. We appreciated the house keeper coming through whilst we were out, but the place smelt like a damp mop when we got back to the suite . And the towels got mixed up. The towel I used for my son and I were both placed on the railing so I'm not sure whose was whose or if they were fresh towels. It'd be nice to label towels. The shower is spacious, but the floor next to the toilet inevitably gets wet when using the shower. The water takes too long to get warm so alot is wasted whilst waiting. The ceilings look like theres been some damp damage. The walls are cracking here and there. But overall we loved the place. So serene, comfortable and beautiful.
We traveled for a wedding at St IVES and managed to get a booking for a two night stay with our child. The family suite was lovely. So spacious. Two neat and modern bedrooms with larges beds, ensuite bathrooms both with showers and tubs. Hand wash/body wash and body cream provided with two rolls of toilet paper per bathroom. Towels provided. A little kitchenette with a microwave, kettle, and bar fridge with a jar half filled with milk. Sachets of tea and coffee provided with sugar. Little balcony area with beautiful views. Beautiful fire place.

South Africawe loved the stay. we found it comfortable, clean and very convenient. However, some of the cleaning staff were particularly rude to us and seemed to be on the intolerant side. We aren’t an untidy bunch, and pay importance to cleanliness and hygiene as it’s a huge part of our religious upbringing. We can’t seem to understand why we were being treated rudely by some of the cleaning staff where we were given funny looks and were asked to move out of our rooms entirely and stand outside while they clean even though we did make sure we were not in their way and allowed them to do their tasks. on Saturday, our bedrooms and bathrooms were not cleaned either. With that being said, David was an absolute star and made every effort to ensure our stay was pleasant and enjoyable!
the location was beautiful. we occasionally caught sight of Zebra, buck and wildebeest which made it that much more exciting.

South AfricaIf I have to be picky my only complaint would be that we couldn’t swim. We did choose the place for the pool. And it wasn’t well maintained and full of bugs. So my kids couldn’t swim. But in the end that did not spoil our overall experience of the place
Loved this place, perfectly located in the middle of the midlands so everything is close. Beautiful place loved the game and view from our room. The fresh milk in the fridge every day was such a nice gesture.
