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.).

South AfricaWe had a very welcoming stay at Andes Guesthouse. The place was clean, the staff friendly and the owners are very kind people. We enjoyed breakfast at Andes Café, which was delicious. What a beautiful guesthouse in a gorgeous setting. The place is breathtaking. We hope to visit again soon!

Beautiful farm that is near to Clarens. The accommodation was 5 stars. Comfortable beds, stunning decor, cosy at night, peaceful surroundings, clean rooms, modern bathroom and overall just immaculate. Host was very friendly and was ready for us on arrival. We were offered drinks and made to feel at home. There is a lot more I could speak about this property but I'd be here all day. Highly recommended and I will definitely return soon with the family.

South AfricaThere was absolutely nothing to dislike about the place. It was an entirely pleasurable stay, and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it.
I had an incredible stay at Andes Clarens Guesthouse, where every detail was meticulously attended to. The rooms feature a unique vintage-modern aesthetic and are fully equipped with everything one might need for a self-catering experience. This guesthouse truly stands out and can easily rival some of South Africa's most renowned hotel chains. The customer service was exceptional, particularly the manager, Brenda, who was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Additionally, the café's food was outstanding—definitely the best I had in Clarens! Overall, I rate my experience a solid 11 out of 10, and I will absolutely be returning in the future.

South AfricaThe place is beautiful both inside and outside. I was travelling with my daughter and was pleasantly surprised to find that there’s a play area for kids. My sister went for a walk and fell into mud, she then left her hiking boots on the porch and we were again pleasantly surprised to find that the housekeeper had washed the boots clean, a service that was not expected at all. The attention to detail is totally unmatched, snacks are refilled everyday. Towels are changed daily…. Truly exceptional value for money. I’d be lying if I were to say there’s anything we were not happy with. & there’s a restaurant on the property which was an added bonus

South AfricaUnfortunately due to the heavy rains there was a few roof leaks with one directly onto our bed. This was the only blemish for an otherwise outstanding place. The host did promise to get the leaks repaired.
Pristine grounds, 5 star amenities with the kitchenette being a great touch. The host was very warm and welcoming. She went out of her way our needs were taken care of. We felt extremely special and will definitely return!

South AfricaOur stay was far too short!!
Beautiful country setting in close proximity to Clarens, with abundant birdlife, lush gardens and perfectly manicured lawns Quiet, peaceful and secure. The bedroom was large, very clean and comfortable, with a walk-in shower and full en suite bathroom with a separate loo. Bedding and linen were crisp and clean. The patio overlooking the garden was private and peaceful. Tastefully modern with all the facilities which you may need. We have found a new favourite place [for us] in Clarens and will certainly return. Highly recommended!
