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 ants were a problem. Even when there was no food left out, every morning there would be a swarm of ants in the kitchen.
Location was great. Lovely home for a large group. The home assistant (Rina) was great. Thanks Rina :)

South AfricaThe cutlery!
A very spacious home. It was amazing that each of the many rooms was en suite. The beds were very comfortable. A lot of thought has gone into ensuring the comfort of guests in the event of water shortages or load shedding. Thank you for a fabulous guest booklet, good communication and the info brochures.

GermanyThe place is easy enough to find. Google knows the entrance from the main road. The road up to the lodge is doable in a 4x4, but otherwise a challenge! Rina, the house keeper, took great care of us. The place is really lovely. Only one star subtraction for all the minor little details that just keep it from being great. Some stains here, a not-so-well-patched hole in the roof, the damaged pool table, etc etc. Overall great value for money but there’s room for improvement 😉

United KingdomWe had issues with ants in the kitchen and while it says there is a house keeping service, we didn't have the house cleaned while we were there. Also, note there is no washing machine that can be used by guests - if you want to wash clothes you must pay 175r per load to have it done by the house keeping which we thought was rather expensive, especially when the details list a washing machine on the property and not paid laundry.
Unbelievable value for money, it's a huge house and really well organised self catering accommodation. Absolutely stunning views out to the mountains with a beautiful garden overlooked by a great veranda.

Communication before and on the day was exceptional. Both the owner and host are extremely responsive and answered all our question. Sonja met us on arrival showed us around the place, answered all our questions and even sent us up to date info on road conditions. The house itself is immaculate and luxurious.

United StatesRoad or driveway up to the property needs improvement. A 2 wheel drive could get up the driveway, but if it was rainy and wet I doubt a 2 wheel drive would have gotten up the driveway as it’s red clay. Some of the ceiling areas show black mold and there were lots of little black ants in the kitchen and evidence of a mouse that tried, but wasn’t successful, to get into some of our food.
Great location, large and fancy on suite bathrooms for every room. It was out of town with a wonderful view over the town.
