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 AfricaNothing. Everything was above par
We had lovely hosts and felt welcome immediately. Not only are the rooms spacious beautiful and comfy but everything we needed was provided for. Extra blankets, a swimming pool with extra towels, body wash and a lovely homemade muesli, yoghurt, fresh bread and homemade jam. French press coffee. Overall we had an amazing stay with the most wonderful people. We were also fortunate enough to see an eagle in their garden and whales in hermanus. I'd recommend a snorkel at Davies pool if you're in the area. Thanks so much Fiona and Bob and Zola, We will be back ❤️

Naturally warm and welcoming hosts. Felt comfortable and totally at home. Plenty of safe parking. Quiet area close to everything. Tasty warm fresh bread for breakfast and a help yourself vibe. So relaxing. Lovely enclosed pool area. Instead of the nasty little commercial coffee sachets there was a little jar of good coffee in the room. And plenty of space for stuff.

GermanyThe hosts were super kind and friendly, and really made us feel at home! For us one of the best hosts we ever hand - giving us lots of tips for restaurants, hikes, and things to do at our upcoming destinations. The place is also very nicely located right at the river and the bed was amazing - we slept perfect!

We had a wonderful stay! Fiona and Bob are the most lovely people. They gave us very good advice on what activities to do or where to go eat and drink based on our interests. The location is perfect: a nice and quiet neighbourhood and still close to everything. Their dog is calm and very friendly. Hermanus and surroundings is a beautiful place and a must visit even if it is not whale season!

South AfricaI would have liked a welcome gift of a bottle of water & a small chocolate. I would have liked more interaction from the hosts. We were celebrating our 25th anniversary but there was little interest in the reason for our stay.
The location was lovely. My husband connected with Bob. I loved interacting with Fiona, who was altogether lovely. I appreciated the effort to accommodate my vegan needs. The finishings of the room was of a high quality. A 4 star, high end location.
