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 only thing we can say about the room is that its a beautiful concept,its just a bit out dated and can get a splash of more colour and features to liven it up again. We can see that the haven was built a while back in the past so just a bit of modern additions will give it its fizz back😉
Obviously the veiw of the Rock haven is fabulous and that is the reason why we booked it. The bath with the veiw is the main feature of the room and is worth it and lovely to just sit in it and star gaze in to the night sky!

South AfricaThe couch was not the comfiest! Maybe a slightly bigger fan! But other than that not much to complain about!!
The chalet was absolutely gorgeous! The view and the open windows by the bathtub were just magical! I love how the chalet was built around the rocks! Kitchen was fully equipped! Everything was just the perfect romantic getaway! Location is amazing and perfect for hikes in the mountains

South AfricaAlthough the experience of the interior of the chalet was very modern, clean and attractive, some better subdued lighting would have enhanced the experience. One thing that really surprised me was that although the interior was excellent, the balcony floor especially looked neglected. One plank was broken, but right on top of a joint so no danger at all, it could just scare some people thinking that they could fall trough. The lights next to the beds were a bit odd with the switch right above the shade, so you had to get out of bed to switch the light off. Another strange feature of those lights was that the lights only managed to illuminate the bedside tables, so not useful for reading by!! As far as the parking is concerned it would be helpful to smooth out the parking area floor from sticking out rocks, which would make for smooth parking. As far as electronic communication is concerned we could only use Vodacom, but surprisingly enough we received Vodacom in the Chalet, Dassie, aka 'Little Heaven'

South AfricaTo be absolutely honest, there was nothing we didn't like beside network issues. This is SA, no need to say more. Loadshitting happens. If you are the adventure type make sure you have a pair of sneakers or boots for the hiking trails. The pool area could be maintained better. There is a hiking trail to a cave with exceptional views. Perhaps some informative information like formation, types and facts would be great for travelers to read about when you get there. Also a bench or sculptured art so you can relax and enjoy the views.
Hidden in the mountains. What a gem of a location. The landscape and surrounding totally blew me away. So rare to find such diverse landscape of beauty. Awesome Views and tranquility just listening to the wonderful symphonies of the local bird life. Self-catering so make sure you are well prepared. To relax and unwind from the city life without Network and Netflix, this is a great location. We will definitely return.
