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 AfricaThere were ants in the room.
I enjoyed everything about my stay. The rooms were neat and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The views were really amazing. I loved laying in bed and watching the lake and ocean early in the morning.

South AfricaThe very noisy guests disturbing the peace and quiet of this hotel. Guests need to be more considerate. The slamming of doors and loud talking started at 6.30am on a Sunday morning! Sounds of the guests showering upstairs was so loud as if it was in our own bathroom. A heater and thicker blankets for winter is recommended.
Stunning views from this Cape Dutch styled hotel with an interesting history. We loved the large, spacious, clean and comfortable room with its king size bed. A buffet dinner was available at R280 pp. Breakfast was very good.

South AfricaBathroom towels are too old, need to be changed. Limited range of food to choose from. Rooms were not on the same standard eg. the other room has wifi and the other one has none.
The food and the whole service was amazing. The staff was very welcoming, thanks to Samke and her team. The area where a hotel is situated and it's nature is giving life.

South AfricaI would only ask that they trim the tree branches at the entrance to the Hotel off the main road, they are currently obscuring the hotel signage an its easy to miss the turn off to the Hotel.
The front desk staff are super efficient and welcoming. The Hotel location provides picture perfect views of the Estuary and Ocean. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The restaurant staff are pleasant, attentive and helpful, without hovering over you. We had a truly lovely stay at The Estuary Hotel and Spa and would certainly go back for another visit, especially since we did not try out the lovely spa treatments this time round.

South AfricaThe beach area is not accessible for people staying at the hotel.
The views from our bedroom were excellent. The rooms were easily accessible from the parking area which made it easy for me to manage with an elderly mum. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the staff was warm and friendly. Will definitely visit again.

United KingdomThe hotel is a bit 'tired' and old fashioned, but that is common on the Wild Coast. However, the linen and beds were comfortable and everything worked. The wifi was weak in the rooms, but ok in the public areas.
It's a charming old hotel in a beautiful location. The staff are very competent, friendly and welcoming. The buffet style dining was what one would expect of a country hotel, given the challenges with getting provisions in a remote location - a good selection of options, not adventurous but tasty. We would be happy to return.

South AfricaInternet, WIFI is almost not existing. Telephone reception not everywhere. The restaurant: old days tiny ,in diameter,plates ( for starters and for the main course), black table cloth, black nupkins and black staff uniforms in the rainy days make you beleive that you are at the funiral parlor... The menu items ,as well as the kitchen execution of it, is probably well recieved by the targeted audience. It was not our cup of tea though. But every staff member is friendly and very helpfull
Old Constantia style architecture, Beautiful, well-maintained territory with amazing view. very peaceful and quiet surrounding. It is 3-star hotel, so expect 3-star experience at its best
