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.).

A very special place, we walked the labyrinth and enjoyed sunny dips in the happy dam. We've just emigrated back from the UK after 17 years. Andrea and Kobus's creativity is so inspiring.

United KingdomLoad shedding meant 6pm to 8pm with candles but it was very romantic. There can be a lot of wildlife in the garden but apart from birds we only saw tortoises !
Whilst these cottages don’t have all mod-cons ( think load shedding ) it is owned by an artist and is just the top place we stayed in SA. V close to the Franschhoek , the biggest treat is the swimming pond and the garden. Not to be missed if you have an artistic bone in your body !

KenyaIt was complicated to get the keys because we didn't ahev internet to stay in touch with the house manager. I'd recommend they put the keys in a box with a code and give the code in advance.
The room is very nice, personally decorated and painted by the artist owner. It was nice for a night but we would have enjoyed to stay a few more nights.

South AfricaThe only thing that made me uneasy, is that there was no gate to the property. It would have felt safer, as there is a lot of both pedestrian and car traffic going by.
The location was great and the place has a lovely ambience.

South AfricaLighter bedding would have been lovely in the summer. We would have loved to experience the Salamander Lounge and art gallery but they were both closed. These comments do not in any way detract from our beautiful stay
This place is a gem….in close proximity to all the attractions of the main village, while being sufficiently removed for a secluded escape. The mountain pool was a place of magic, with beautiful vegetation and incredible Mountain views. The elaborate and well thought out labyrinth was an extra special treat. The cottage was comfortable and suprisingly cool in the hot weather. We absolutely loved our time at this beautiful property!
