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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 shower in the bath is not ideal. Not all staff understand English or can speak English properly. Carpets in the foyer had stains that looked like it was not washed in a long while,
The hotel is situated close to the town within walking distance. Staff was extremely helpful and friendly. It has a homely feeling about it.

United StatesThe taxis they did business with were a little expensive. Other hotels were cheaper with taxis. I suggest finding your own or getting a tuk tuk. Treadmills don’t work that great but it was still functional. Lastly, as a solo parent we received less service at dinner and breakfast compared to a bigger party. I know usually bigger party of people may mean bigger tips, but it didn’t feel good to occasionally be ignored. Lastly, I didn’t know the policy of paying for the drinks right away. I thought it would just be charged to the room. It felt embarrassing to be chased down by a staff member, mind you who ignored us most of the time, to tell us we needed to pay for the drinks. I suggests letting your customers know the policy when you sit them down since things can be different in different countries so no embarrassment happens.
The room was wonderful, very spacious. The housekeepers were great. I liked the location of the hotel. It was close to many things. The gym was small but functional. I enjoyed the in room dinner service food menu. They also have a foreign money exchange bank inside the hotel. The pool is kept clean everyday. I enjoyed being able to eat outside as well.

United KingdomIt’s the perfect place to go before starting Safari! We arrived very early after a long flight and Erick the nice receptionist managed to give us a room where we could rest! The staff are what make this place special! Everyone has a big smile on their face and is so polite and genuine. A special shout out to Adam who served us delicious lunch by the pool and David at dinner in the restaurant. We had by far the best paneer curry we’ve ever had. In general the food choice was amazing and great vegetarian options as well. The room was very clean and comfortable. When we checked out two of the housekeeping staff offered to take our bags on the way down. The level of service was incredible and many other 5 star hotels could learn front hear guys. Asante Sana :)

FinlandFirst we got a room with a faulty AC but luckily we were allowed to change rooms. The second one had the same layout as the first one. Maybe it was a bit more worn out but most importantly the AC worked like a charm. After the long hot day on a safari this was just what we needed to get some rest.
A nice hotel in a good location, friendly personnel, very functional for 3 adults. Good value for money.
