Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

South AfricaA memorable escape in the heart of the Devon Valley! We spent three blissful nights in the Dutchess room at Heerenhuys and loved every moment. The room itself is a dream - generously sized, tastefully decorated with elegant Dutch touches, and equipped with a pristine en-suite bathroom. Evenings were spent unwinding in the cozy guest lounge, where a crackling fireplace turned cool valley nights into pure comfort. Mornings began with Didi’s exceptional breakfast: fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with local flavours - an experience in its own right. Our warm-hearted host, Nynke greeted us like old friends, ensuring we had everything we needed. From start to finish, Heerenhuys delivered on charm, comfort, and genuine hospitality. We left feeling refreshed, thoroughly pampered, and already planning our return. Highly recommended!

An exceptional and inviting property located about 4 km outside Stellenbosch: the refined ambience, exceptionally tastefully furnished, spacious rooms, a well-kept outdoor area on a hillside with a wonderful view of the valley and, last but not least, a superbly prepared breakfast buffet!

What a wonderful find - beautiful farmhouse with fabulous decor thanks to the artistic vision of Nynke and Ernst. Spacious bedroom and bathroom, with amazing common areas whether that be the pool, terrace or living room. Super friendly hosts, relaxed atmosphere and awesome breakfast! The property is located outside of town set in beautiful gardens and surrounded by fields but only a short taxi ride into Stellenbosch. Highly recommend

The breakfast is fantastic and very diverse - simply the best we had in South Africa. . Thank you Nynke and team for making our stay so enjoyable. We will be back ;)

NetherlandsIn the room we had the guests next door could walk over our porch which effected our feeling of privacy. (This room had wndows on 3 sides, beautiful for the view by the way).After mentioning this to the owner he moved some plants to block this but still the guests would walk by.
The entrance after passing the gate is beautiful, with luck one can see 4 springboks and some peacocks, via the beautiful garden the road goes upwards. Once above a breathtaking view over the valley. Very friendly staff and tasteful interior. The rooms are spacious and clean, but to our tasting a little to much black, however very well done including the bathroom. Breakfast we liked, fresh fruits etc no complaints whatsoever. The dutch couple who run the place are friendly and helpfull.

SwitzerlandI had the absolute pleasure of spending several nights at Die Heerenhuys, a unique lodge near Stellenbosch, and I must say: it is a true hidden gem! Never before have I been welcomed so warmly and genuinely. The owners have mastered the art of creating an incredibly relaxed and inviting atmosphere, making your stay unforgettable. It feels like visiting longtime friends – all while enjoying the comforts of a high-end lodge that leaves nothing to be desired. The breakfast is simply exceptional. Everything you could wish for is provided, accompanied by breathtaking views of the three-hectare, nature-protected property. The frequent visits from wildlife make the experience even more magical and emphasize the connection to nature. The rooms at Die Heerenhuys are spacious and showcase one of the most stunning combinations of modern architecture and tasteful design I’ve seen in a long time. While the lodge is not located directly in Stellenbosch, it is the perfect base to explore the region’s many wineries, whether by car or Uber. All in all, this was one of the best stays I’ve had in years. I would like to sincerely thank the owners for their exceptional hospitality. I will most definitely return and wholeheartedly recommend Die Heerenhuys to anyone seeking the perfect blend of luxury, nature, and warmth.
