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...).

United StatesWe would have stayed forever but stairs were difficult for us to manage due to problems of advanced age. We felt totally safe and well cared for.
Just lovely. Out of Africa feel. Lovely place on hillside with gorgeous patio for watching amazing sunsets.

AustraliaNothing! Lived it all!
Amazing accommodation in the beautiful Bantry Bay. The room was massive with a huge bedroom and chairs looking out onto the decking with ocean views. Then there was also a very large couch space and large bathroom. The location was amazing. Felt very safe and could easily access Seapoint or Camps Bay. Plus when we arrived there was a bottle of champagne waiting for us! Just a lovely touch. I would definitely recommend this stay and hope to return!

GermanyNothing, everything was tip-top.
We had a wonderful 10-day stay in this luxurious en-suite room. Everything was exactly as promised – spacious, beautifully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. The sea view from the balcony was breathtaking, especially the sunsets. We felt truly spoiled by the thoughtful daily treats, and the hidden kitchenette was a brilliant touch. A special thanks to Rita and the staff for looking after us so well – their care made our stay extra special. Highly recommended!

United KingdomWonderful views and lovely decor / facilities. Excellent welcome. There is an essential lift on the premises which (especially for luggage) is a prerequisite given location. A couple of times the lift wasn’t working which was unfortunate but soon fixed.

Well thought out space, making the most of the seaview. The breakfast options and snacks in a self service, in room set up really works and were really tasty. Spacious, clean & well taken care of. Kind, friendly, attentive host, nothing was too much for her.

United KingdomThis is not a room or a studio it is something far more expansive and sumptuous. The views are exceptional: the sea the sunsets - incomparable. The host was really lovely too and I arrived hours earlier than check in and was allowed to.. well check in! Short walk into town (Try Jarryds I still dream about that place) or to the sea.

Beautiful and pristine property overlooking the gorgeous Bantry Bay and within very close proximity to Clifton (15-20 min walk) and Camps Bay (30 min walk) beaches. Ideally located near to Green Point, the V&A waterfront, City and airport - all of which are just a short taxi ride away.

United KingdomThe property was stunning. The owner has it decorated to high standards and you feel you’re living like a millionaire for your stay. The views are as spectacular as the photos show. The cleaner was lovely. There’s a small breakfast in your room daily. You can park your car in a secure garage so no worries there. The beach is 5-10 mins walk. We’d recommend it to anyone staying in Cape Town

AustraliaThere was not one thing I did not like!
The breakfast was delicious and replenished each day. It was lovely to eat on the balcony over looking a beautiful expanse of ocean. The host Linzi was very attentive and discreet at the same time. Such a fantastic place with a gorgeous view and as a single traveller I felt very safe, secure and happy. Admittedly, it would have been quite nice to spend with someone else, but maybe next time! There will be a next time! The beaches close by were lovely and I enjoyed walking to Camps Bay for lunch also the opposite direction to the Viaduct for a spot of dinner.
