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 AfricaAlthough it was a bushveld/lodge unit. The cleanliness was not quite up to standard in my opinion.
The absolute most beautifull scenery and bushveld feel. The beds were very comfortable and the unit well laid out. The outside shower was amazing.

Absolutely wonderful place, wish we could have stayed longer. Cobus and karen are the most amenable and accommodating hosts. We had a beautiful room which overlooked a garden frequented by warthog, wildebeest and other fauna. We walked the trails on our own and saw giraffe, nyala and many other antelope. It was amazing to have the bush trails to ourselves as we like to be independent ( you can have a guide if you like) the meals were delightful and cooked to perfection. We loved staying on this reserve and it deserves all the success.

South AfricaThe gravel road is a bit tricky, you must take it easy.
The breakfast served at Belvedere Game Ranch was truly amazing and delicious, fit for champions. Breakfast is my favourite meal of the day, and this one did not disappoint. I appreciated the fact that the ranch was located far from the bustling noise of the city, allowing me to relax and unwind. Karen and Cobus, the hosts, were wonderful and welcoming, making me feel happy and at ease. On my way out, I made a quick stop at their Game Meat and Abattoir and Butchery, where I bought some amazing biltong, a South African delicacy, for the road. I highly recommend stopping by the butchery before you exit the property. I wish Karen, Cobus, and the rest of the staff all the best for the future. I will recommend this place to my friends.

AustriaThe Belvedere was just amazing and better than expected! This lovely place has everything you need. We had a big game drive with Andries where we could explore the african bush. Klara cooked us a wonderful dinner and Karen prepared our breakfast. It was a very nice time and we learned a lot about the (wild)life in south africa. I hope we can come back again. :)
