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 KingdomNothing could be faulted.
Friendly, professional staff in a beautiful countryside setting - only a short drive from one of the main entrances to Addo. Dinner and breakfast were exceptional and the library and lounge terrace area were wonderful for post dinner drinks,

United KingdomNothing. We were very sad to leave at the end of our stay.
The food was very good and the menu was imaginative and varied which was nice for those on a longer stay. Both management and all the staff team alike were warm, efficient, kind and caring, and nothing we asked for was too much trouble. The atmosphere is relaxed and we felt very much at home. We were self driving in the Addo park each day, and it was only a few minutes drive from Woodall so it was great to have some time game watching and then come back for a swim or spa treatment and laze in the lovely garden or on our private terrace.

United KingdomWoodall is such a charming and stylish property. From cleaning the car without any fanfare to a glorious breakfast on the terrace overlooking the weaverbirds nest building, this property is just a delight. As ever though it is the wonderful staff who make it a 5 star experience. This was our second visit and we’ll definitely be back again.

HungaryEverything was perfect for us - so different and so special, so nothing negative to say
Woodall Country lodge has exceeded our expectations, honestly. Hidden in Addo and close to Addo elephant park, you reside on citrus farm, enjoying spacious rooms with the option of interior and exterior shower. The interior has been managed with love and dedication by the owners, one example which makes South Africa so special. Freddie, the friendly hotel manager arranges everything for you, the parking, the check in, the breakfast and dinner. When he recognized that we were interested in the birds at the breakfast veranda (weaver birds, red bishops, ducks, kingfishers) he arranged a breakfast table directly under the weaver tree. For dinner he played the piano and accompanied the excellent food (lamb shank) with a bottle of South Africa red wine. We never will forget about this unexpected experience.
