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.).

AustraliaMay have been the season but the hot water was a bit limited 😉
This intimate gorgeous cottage is in a great location just up from town with stunning views over the valley and to the mountains. Dieu Donne winery is right next door for wine tasting or catch the wine tram pink line and finish up there for an easy walk home after visiting a few others. Was a little too chilly for a swim in the pool but it would be wonderful in Summer. The included breakfast was delicious and the staff were so friendly and helpful. Couldn’t speak more highly of Ryan who went above and beyond when friend’s forgot their passports in the safe!

NetherlandsWe also rented a self-catering chalet, which was good with breathtaking views as well, but not as luxurious as the hotel rooms. Relatively small bedrooms and bathroom.
The hotel rooms were massive and luxurious, the location in Franschhoek and the views from the hotel were amazing.

South AfricaThe guest liaison found out its my husband's birthday when we requested flutes and surprised us with a bottle of bubbles and chocolate brownies. We were upgraded to a larger room which was so special. The views are spectacular, stunning location, staff were all so professional and lovely breakfast served in an intimate space with a roaring fire.

United KingdomA lovely semi-detached cottage (number 1) with a veranda overlooking the vineyard, and beyond that the manor house and the mountains. We were there in autumn, so nobody else was staying and it was really lovely and quiet. The staff could not have been more helpful in every way.

NetherlandsThe smell of fireplace when you entered the apartment. Looks like people before just had fire and the smell was horrible. The smell was almost gone the next day when I complained about it. Then if you stay in the cottage, you have to walk up 10 minutes with kids on the same road people are driving to go to the breakfast and swimmingpool, there are not a lot of cars driving that road, but still, they should do something about that. We prefered to have breakfast in town instead. Uber works in Franschhoek, but not at the cottage, so you first have to walk up the hill or drive the car to the parking lot and then call Uber. Especially if you are taking the winetram, you don’t want to drive your car later on… So yes, beautiful place, convenient mwah…
The view is stunning, beautiful! The apartment really nice and well equipped.
