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 staff was not the friendliest nor were they very welcoming. On our last morning at Caledon we were awaken by maintenance men working right by our window (they were varnishing the window of our room and talking very loud). This made us very uncomfortable. We were also required to pay a “tourism levy” (for each day that we stayed) that we were unaware of.
The facilities were good. We really enjoyed the hot pools and had no complaints about our hotel room. The breakfast was the highlight of our stay.

South AfricaMore information needed to be given. I constantly asked questions. For instance the number to dial for reception, the restaurants didn’t have halal food and the fact that we had to ask for another blanket and there was no iron.
The breakfast, the hotel pools and accessible the spa facilities were.

South AfricaI was disappointed that there was only 1 restaurant that was open for lunch and supper and the bar was also closed. It just seemed like there was a lot of wasted space that could be used for various forms of entertainment and activities to create a fun atmosphere for everyone.
Stunning view and scenery, really enjoyed the pools. The breakfast was great, a nice variety and over enough food.

South AfricaBathroom was weathered ( door and toilet seat ). There was no soap only a shower cap. Could smell fresh paint. At telephone in room , no booklet or info guide if anything needed from reception. Was told on Sunday morning we must book for breakfast, unacceptable. When we got there on Friday afternoon, there was a trolley near the staircase with a bowl of finished food. Was still there Saturday morning , unbelievable. More fresh fruit at breakfast would be nice..
The views, staff was hospitable. Place was clean. Pools was very nice.

South AfricaGeneral upkeep and maintenance needs attention, but we did notice that this is happening. There was a dripping sound outside our room on the first night. But contractors were on site the next day to resolve the issue. There is also a trolley stationed as you go upstairs to the rooms and this would have dirty plates on it for lengthy periods during the day.
Staff at the hotel are extremely accommodating. Buffet breakfast is top notch. I also loved that they have a towel service - deposit of R200 per towel, but you can change your wet towel for a dry one as many times as you need to. Deposit refunded at check out.

South Africa-Room had a damp, musty smell, was not pleasant, particularly the bathroom. Extractor fan was not working -Shower was a bath shower combo, and took forever to change temperature after adjustment. Pressure seemed low so took ages to get clean. -Whole room seemed run down apart from the bed
-Hot springs was 10/10 (except during load shedding when they stopped) -Da Vinci restaurant was 10/10, big portions, reasonable prices, cheap drinks, great taste -Bed was 10/10, massive and comfortable and clean -Buffet breakfast 10/10, great variety and constantly replenished

South AfricaThe hotel feels like it needs a revamp. Curtain had a big hole in it. We did not feel safe in the Hot Springs at night, men were harassing us, and we had to leave the area. I reported it to reception - more security is needed for guests at night.
Good breakfast, pleasant helpful staff, hot springs are always good but unfortunately due to loadshedding the pumps don't work.

South AfricaThe buffet breakfast was chaos, no order to it. Should be managed better and not let everybody storm the hot food section at the same time. The children should not be allowed to serve themselves, it is unhygienic because they touch the food that other people must still eat.

South AfricaEven though the check out states 11:00 to 11:30, the room key stopped working at 11:00 and had to go to the front desk to query. We eventually had one of hotel staff open the room door so that we could collect the rest of our items.
Excellent buffet breakfast included in the stay at the Blue Crain. However, the food at the Black Sheep and Di Vinci restaurants were not that great.

South AfricaBetter parking. More variety with regards to restaurants to eat at.
Breakfast was good, but you got to go early, because it will fill up quickly and it is very badly organised.. Go early or you will need to wait in a queue just to get a table. The hot thermal baths are amazing. As you are a guest go late to the baths, less people. Really worth the trip for this.
