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 AfricaThe staff were friendly and very helpful. My King size room was enormous, very comfortably appointed and had a good hairdryer, bar fridge, good coffee machine as well as free bottled water and tea. Breakfast was also very nice, fresh fruit, cold meats and hot food as well. This guest house is located a quick 12 min from the middle of down. Down 1 straight tarred road.

South AfricaThe estate is set in a lovely quiet spot not too far from Franshhoek. Breakfasts are really good. My room was not the best and needs some TLC. The bath spout is loose from the wall and points to the overflow and one needs to lift it a bit to pour water into the bath. The toilet paper holder is broken and I placed the broken part on the floor but it was simply inserted back when housekeeping cleaned the room for the 2nd night... Carpet is a bit dirty and stained, but that could be due to the grapevine directly outside the bedroom door... Luckily I got the room at a semi decent rate, and would have been super disappointed if I had to pay full price, because then I would have canceled..

BelgiumThe rooms and property in general need some freshening up. While clean, everything felt a bit outdated and perhaps not well cared for. The pool was quite dirty and pool area not very inviting.
Beautiful surroundings / grounds of the property. The rooms were spacious and clean. Staff was friendly and helpful.

South AfricaThe only thing that was a bit strange was breakfast in the mornings. There were two ladies, one of which said she was new. She seemed like she needed a bit of training. We got asked what we’d like to order for breakfast and had no idea what was available because there was no menu or anything to choose from. After the new waitress mentioned a couple items, I ordered an omelette. The omelette that came to me had the wrong fillings inside - the waitress didn’t write anything down which is probably why she got it wrong. On the second day, I ordered an omelette again with chilly, the other waitress took my order and repeated my fillings, but she left out the chilly. I then repeated “with chilly please” and she just smiles.. my omelette came without chilly. I’ve been to Val D’or once before and my breakfast experience was great! Unfortunately this time, it was not.
The location of the property is perfect as it’s close to the main street and the Wine Tram terminal. I loved the gardens, the fact that there were multiple pools and how clean and large the properties are. It is also very affordable and perfect for large groups.
