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 AfricaThat the family suite did not have an additional bathroom. Would have been greatl if it had an additional toilet and a shower. Lighting in rooms during load shedding was absent. Would have been great if torches or some form of lighting could be made available. Could be handed to guests upon arrival and handed back to reception upon check out in order to keep record that guests don't depart with it. Fortunately, we had our torch with us to light up the room. I had a challenge with the wifi. Could not access wifi. Breakfast was ok, but not a variety. Limited variety of fruit. Had to ask for muesli because it was not amongst the cereals that was displayed. If we did not ask, would not have known that hotel had muesli. Consider serving baked beans with breakfast which most of hotel include in breakfast menu.
Room was clean. Bathroom very modern and the bed was very comfortable. Coffee was lovely. Will visit hotel again.

South Africain my opinion the hotel couldn’t cope with managing the hotel guests as well as the rest of their activities in connection with the festival. Dining hall breakfast buffet had no honey, no large serving plates, no sugar substitute sachets for a diabetic, no chutney condiments. The water and milk in the room wasn’t replenished after the first day. Standard answer given by staff was that these items were being used for the other functions which the hotel was catering for. I think that the hotel was short staffed over a very busy time in Oudtshoorn.
Convenient- situated in the centre of all the activities.

South AfricaI think they need to clean the pond so we can see the fish.
I liked that they had a package for all runners and had breakfast ready at 4am for the runners doing the Kango. Room was just what we needed. Loved the building and courtyard. Was close to everything we needed. Staff were very helpful and worked hard.

South AfricaCoffee at Breakfast was terrible.
Dinner restaurant was overbooked, staff made a plan, they were understaffed but did their best, food was 7/10 but tasty and on time. Breakfast was basic, coffee was terrible. Afternoon spent with a cold beer at the pool was great, also had a snack at the Deli downstairs that operated during load shedding and made a fantastic burger.
