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 AfricaNestled amidst nature's embrace, Sunset Lodge offers an enchanting retreat that effortlessly captivates the heart and soul. My recent stay at this haven of tranquility left me utterly spellbound and rejuvenated, prompting me to share my experience with fellow travelers seeking an exceptional getaway. From the moment I arrived, the lodge's serene surroundings transported me into a world of calmness and beauty. The lodge's architecture seamlessly blends with the lush landscape, creating a harmonious fusion of comfort and nature. The towering trees that envelop the lodge add an air of mystique, while the distant mountains serve as a breathtaking backdrop. Accommodations at Sunset Lodge are nothing short of exquisite. My spacious and elegantly appointed room boasted modern amenities while retaining a rustic charm that perfectly complemented the natural setting. The attention to detail was evident in every aspect, from the cozy bedding to the carefully selected decor elements that highlighted the lodge's connection to its environment. One of the lodge's standout features is its commitment to providing a truly immersive experience. The guided nature walks led by knowledgeable staff allowed me to explore the surrounding wilderness, learning about the local flora and fauna in the process. The lodge's dedication to ecotourism and preserving the delicate ecosystem is commendable, and it's heartening to see their efforts in action. Dining at Sunset Lodge was a culinary journey in itself. The restaurant's farm-to-table concept ensured that every meal was a celebration of fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The diverse menu showcased both international and regional cuisine, and each dish was a testament to the chef's expertise and creativity. The staff's warmth and genuine hospitality added a personal touch to my stay.

NetherlandsIt was the best accommodation we have had in our time in South Africa. No specific points to do better.
The owners are the best hosts with. They are helpful in any way they can to give you the best experience in the bush they can. They also have a lot of knowledge. The food they make is also very good! The accommodation is very clean and very well maintained. We saw all kinds of wildlife on the property. In the evening around the fire with a good wine was a very nice place to talk about the experiences of the day. The hosts know a lot of people so they have good tips about which guide to hire for certain experiences in the area.

South AfricaSunset Lodge Thank you to Vincent and Toni for an amazing stay at Sunset Lodge. You thought of everything to make us feel at home. From the moment we arrived, you both welcomed us with unbelievable hospitality. Our Lodge was crispy clean, exceptionally comfortable and cosy.

You added that personal touch to all you did and we appreciate that immensely. Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to you and your team for making our stay so unforgettable.
