Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

South AfricaI did suggest that they leave a risk or biscuit for one to have with one’s tea, which was gratefully accepted and was immediately taken into consideration. I asked for full cream milk and it was supplied without question. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious.
I was impressed by the cleanliness and comfort and especially the very personal concern for one’s well being.

BelgiumFantastic location to relax and “feel at home”. It is a nice and quiet place to stay after a day of full action in the wine region of Stellenbosch and surroundings. Special attention for the fantastic breakfast with the best omelette “ever”. Ask for it and the staff of this B&B will make it, bring it with passion.

United KingdomI was extremely unhappy before I left the hotel. I appreciated they allowed me to leave my luggage and came back to retrieve it. But when I was back and tried to tidy up myself in the breakfast/living room, the gentleman host gave me an unfriendly look and it sounded to me that I should not be sitting there and I was ruining their business, had to have their dogs locked because I was afraid of dogs. This last little thing completely ruined my experience here.
Location is close to the town centre, breakfast was nice and accommodated my needs. The ladies were very friendly. I would recommend for families than a single traveller.

South AfricaDuring our stay we didn't have any problems at all because the owners and the staff were very good at preventing and solving any problems we might have had. So I'd say there's nothing I didn't like about 10 Alexander B&B
The staff and owners were very friendly. The breakfast was amazing 10/10. The rooms were so tidy and clean. The location is so convenient if you are looking to walk to the shops instead of driving. And I'd say it's a walkable distance to the university as well. Would definitely recommend 10 Alexander B&B

United KingdomNothing, we really liked it and would stay again.
Breakfast was amazing - so much choice of gorgeous food! The owners were really helpful and made sure each morning that we had all the advice we needed about where to go each day. The pool was lovely and perfect for an end of day dip. The room was great - clean, big enough and had all the basics you would need from a room, including a mini kitchen for self catering. The B&B felt safe and secure.

DenmarkI was there during a cold period in winter. The buildings (that I heard also from my friends there) in Stellenbosch are not adept to such cold therefore, the isolation and heating system are not as strong as we know in other countries. The AC could only be used for a short time so that the energy could be used by other guests too etc. So for me the only concern, and it was a concern, was how can I make myself feel warmer while I’m trying to sleep. If you’re visiting to Stellenbosch in the winter bring very thick clothes! As the guesthouses etc are not equipped to provide that warm temperature. Again, it’s not this place’s fault, it’s all over perhaps in all country as my friend in Cape Town was staying in Marriot and still froze every night. For winter, bring very very warm clothes for the night if you’re travelling to South Africa.
The staff is welcoming. I felt as if I was visiting family relatives. Cosy and great breakfast. Lovely staff members. The fireplace makes it especially cosy when you’re there during the winter time.
