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.).

CanadaAngala is paradise. The location, attention to detail, and exceptional beauty of the surroundings is breathtaking. The staff are lovely and extremely accommodating. We arrived late and were greeted warmly despite it being passed 10:00 PM. The chef had prepared a delicious, beautiful vegan platter for us which we enjoyed in our room by the fire that had been thoughtfully lit for us. The room was exceptional and we can’t say enough about the amazingly kept grounds and garden. We will definitely be coming back here on our next trip to Cape Town.

United KingdomThe only negative was the iron in the room as it didn’t hold water inside so was hard to iron the clothes without steam. But I’m sure if I called the reception they would have brought me one that would be compatible with water, also they did have a laundry service that I could of used.
Our experience at the hotel was nothing short of remarkable, largely due to its tasteful and inviting decor. The design was a beautiful fusion of simplicity and elegance, with thoughtfully arranged seating areas that offered captivating views, making each moment a delight to the senses. The hotel's spa facilities were fantastic offering steam / sauna / 2 pools / Jacuzzi. What made our stay truly unforgettable was the prompt and attentive staff, who catered to our every need, ensuring a hassle-free experience. The peace and tranquility that enveloped the hotel was the ultimate cherry on top, creating a serene retreat from the outside world. A truly memorable stay!

South AfricaExpected a more premium experience for the price. For the steak dinner, we weren't asked about our preference for how it should be done - although it was delicious nonetheless. No guarantee of being able to use the wine-tasting voucher at Rupert and Rothschild when they are fully booked during peak times. Angala should recommend to guests beforehand that they should make a reservation in advance if they want to make use of the voucher during peak times.
The location is truly superb, including the proximity to excellent wine estates. The various pool options are excellent, and the room was very comfortable. Sauna is great. Beautiful sunset views. The complementary wine and Nespresso in the room are great.
