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.).

United KingdomThe website cited game drives and seeing the animals, which I would have liked to see. However, nothing was mentioned when I checked in or when I checked out, and I left thinking I had to book that somewhere else. But I didn't see anywhere to left. I would suggest that all guests are offered the full range of activities, either verbally or in a brochure which clearly states where to find out more and where to book.
The venue was perfect for my travels and the room was exceptional. I loved the bathroom and the Nespresso-type coffee. The bed was very comfortable and the view out of the windows fabulous.

South AfricaThe staff gave us a room we didn't book for, and acted really weird when they had to change it. We had booked for a double but they gave us a single room. They also lied about lightning having stricken their bar fridges hence they weren't working. They promised that a technician would come the next morning. When I checked the reviewsof 5 months ago, the fridge issue appeared more than three times so clearly that's the story they give each client upon visit lol!!! What a joke. Being honest wasn't going to hurt. Just don't lie. 2. The second bedroom didn't have hot water and the bathroom was leaking. One literally didn't enjoy the bath cause the water would just keep running out. There were also spider webs and the walls were mouldy.
The place looks really beautiful, not too big of a yard for people who love nature and exploring. The Thanda Tau Restaurant is top star! Enjoyed the food and the service. Collin, the waiter was sooo amazing! He is definitely for keeps!

South AfricaAbsolutely terrible experience. I really thought it would be great. However, lots of things were a complete mess. Reception service was slap-dash as if they could not wait any longer for our arrival even though we stipulated a time. We arrived in the evening to a repainted (the interior) chalet with closed windows made it a nightmare of fumes which I could not sleep through and got a headache from it. Absolutely no WIFI coverage which the hosts did tell us as we arrived, however, there was no alternative! Totally dark walking into the chalet. Breakfast was a huge mess, the manager had to close the kitchen after we waited for 2hrs two scrambled eggs with eggshells in it, to say the least!
The location was good for our drive time but that was about it. Nothing really good about it besides the nearby Spur restaurant.

South AfricaThere was confusion regarding the vouchers for breakfast in terms of how and where it could be used. We were told one thing on check in and another when trying to use it. One of the 2 rooms we stayed in was due for a revamp, but was not done. This meant there alot damp on the walls ( flaking paint) and shower. There was also alot of spider webs in both rooms implying that higher parts of the rooms are not cleaned. This was not a nice sight. The play area for the kids are only for toddler and most of the items are damaged or weather beaten
The rooms are modern and spacious. Access to netflix and wifi is a plus ( although it was not working when we stayed, but i was informed prior)
