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 StatesThere is nothing negative to say. As with most accommodations throughout South Africa, it is good to be mindful of hot water usage.
Villa Bianca is gorgeous! It is furnished beautifully, with comfy beds and impressive bathrooms. Breakfast was excellent each morning. The property is full of historic charm inside and out, has an excellent location with easy on-street parking, and our host Chad could not possibly have been any more fantastic. He even procured specially requested guava juice for my friend during our stay.

NetherlandsIt's an old house so you can expect creaky floors and more noisiness, which kind of adds to the charm ;-)
The house is located max 10 min drive from the busyness of downtown, while also having good access to camps bay. This makes it an excellent spot to discover Cape Town. Chad was hosting us and he'll make you feel very welcome. Breakfast was extensive and hot breakfast included. The house itself has a charm from the victorian times.

United StatesRoom 5 is very small.
This is a gorgeous historical house with all its authentic features in place. The view of Table Mountain through the ship hole window in room 5, and from the back deck is just gorgeous. The pool was very refreshing after a hot day! Even though room number five is very small, the bathroom is modern, updated and beautiful . The cherry on the cake of this extraordinary accommodation, is its host, Chad. Chad has very elegant sensibilities, and the breakfast in the morning is an absolute highlight, with charming views and breezes through the windows. Chad’s taste in art is impeccable. Everything is beautiful and cozy. The house is close to all Kloof Street amenities, and we felt pretty safe walking in the neighborhood.

It was a treat to see a view of the Table Mountain cable car from the upstairs terrace outside. The breakfasts were absolutely fantastic.

Could not recommend Villa Bianca enough. It’s a beautiful old house, very clean, and Chad goes above and beyond to be helpful and welcoming! I was out and about during my stay in Cape Town and rarely at the B&B, but it was a lovely place to come back to each evening. I had a few other hotel options and I am so glad I picked this one.
