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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

We used this just as a comfortable spot between flights. The place was gorgeous in a safe and lovely area. The building itself was very fancy and the staff incredibly helpful. The food served was amazing and included in our booking. We were the only ones staying for the 2 nights and the staff could not do enough for us. Wish we had more time to relax and enjoy the place.

There was a great choice of breakfasts, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the location was great. It was only about 20 minutes from the airport, and an easy drive to Rosebank and Sandton.

South AfricaWe did not receive coffee with breakfast, and they were uncertain when we could come for breakfast since I had to be at the university early in the morning. They did not seem eager to assist me with an early breakfast. But in the end, breakfast was nice.
Staff were very friendly, breakfast was delicious, in summary we all enjoyed our stay and wish we stayed longer.

United StatesI can't think of something I didn't like.
The staff was super friendly. They always greeted us and were very interested in knowing how our stay was and what they could do better. The meals were delicious, and the chef was always present to talk with us. The hotel ambiance seems like a small antique palace, which makes you feel like a prince. Upon our arrival, we were received with a non-alcoholic cocktail.

NetherlandsThe pool right outside the restaurant window. The water is heated, and I would definitely have gone for a swim in the mornings, if I did not feel so looked at by the breakfast people in the restaurant :-)
The hotel is a true boutique experience. You have the feeling you arrive at someone's large home. The service was impecable, across all area's. Special mention for Luke who made me feel so welcome, and if I did not have time for breakfast in the morning, he would bring me a complimentary cappucino on the veranda in the afternoon. Overall, all staff were very friendly and no request was too much. One day we even had some pies delivered from outside for one of my meeting guests and they were served for us, as if they came out of their own kitchen. Wonderful, I am definitely coming back.
