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 AfricaStaff friendly, helpful and ready to assist with requests. We felt very at home during our stay and could access the property on foot and had onsite parking. The residence is in walking distance from the main centre and restaurants. Franschhoek is a very safe and quiet town. The breakfast was AMAZING. Fresh and local produce, made with love. Our room was well appointed with no need to ask for anything else. Spacious bathroom with large shower and natural light.

AustraliaThere wasn't much privacy for the room but luckily for two of the nights the residence was quiet so we were able to open the curtains of the french doors and the side window without concern for other guests looking in.
The staff are extremely welcoming and accommodating without being intrusive. The location is excellent - it's a short walk into town, making it perfect for enjoying the Wine Tram and other delights without worrying about driving. The bathroom is enormous - almost larger than the room itself - and is equipped with everything needed. Parking is off-street and secure. The swimming pool was being renovated while we were there (it being winter), but I can imagine it being the ideal place for a lazy late afternoon after a day of sight-seeing in summer.

South AfricaParking is a little tight for larger vehicles, fortunately not all rooms were booked so we could make a plan. Just a note to future visitors, this room over looks the hills and mountains, but also the solar panels. Fortunately they are neat so not an eyesore.
The room (room 8 upper floor) was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Electric blanket, aircon and fireplace to keep away the cold. Nice kitchenette to prepare basics with a minibar with good mix of drinks. Shower has good water flow and even a pair of robes to wear after. Within walking distance of some nice restaurants.

One of my best stays in SA! The location cannot be beat, the bed had a mattress’s warmer which I’ve never seen so that was life changing. The room is super spacious and the shower was also life changing. Hot and great pressure. The staff was kind
