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 AfricaI booked 6 rooms, and only 5 was available for check-in... I had to sit outside of the room for almost an hour being promised they will bring the key for the room, I had to call several times to get it sorted, and having to be up and down with the escalator just to sort out the room issue.. There is no sense of urgency or special care for pensioners and venerable clients... I understand the check-in time is 2pm but I was willing to pay for 2 rooms or even 1 for early check in as I wanted to put the pensioners to that room as they were tired from the long trip that we had, but that was also not granted.. And I understood that there were a lot of kids that filled the rooms and they had to clean.. But I only requested only 1 room to be prioritized, and that was in vain.. Having to see those grannies who can't even walk properly sleeping in those couches at the waiting zone was really not on.💔.. We ended up being called 13:30 to come check in, but only for 5 rooms🚫 The toilets that are downstairs they are not clean. You can literally smell the bad odor as you walk down the stairs🫢
Rooms are clean.. But room service takes long to come clean the rooms. I feel the hotel is very big and they have less staff, hence it takes so long. It's set up in a good location. Breakfast was top-notch. A big up to the guy that works the day shift who wears khakhi clothes. i feel he was the one who is most welcoming and assists with all the queries that the guest might have... From day 1, when we arrived, he was the one who received us. Even when we left, he was also the one who did our send-off... Even assisted with our luggage from day 1. That man deserves a better position in that hotel...

South AfricaCan be considered for the full breakfast price for kids under 5 years of age. They don't eat a full breakfast, even if they do eat, which is very unlikely, and yet they are expected to pay the full amount of R190. Also if you can cater for takeaway breakfast for those who are not able to sit in and have breakfast. The TV channels do not cater for kids cartoons. There were also cockroaches especially in the bathroom.
The food was nice and the room was clean every day with clean towels and hot water to take a bath.
