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...).

United KingdomSmall signs of tiredness in the fabric of the building - damp patches on the walls. But it’s an old building so not surprising but everything else is great.
The setting. The fact that they could accommodate a late room change. Shows a care for their guests. It was our third stay there over a period of several years returning to Franschhoek

United States of AmericaThe pool was not well maintained it seemed like. I did not feel comfortable going in, and it's rather small as well. I didn't have time to swim anyway, so it was fine for me, but keep in mind if you're looking to have the ultimate relaxation.
The room was large and lovely, very much winecountry decor. The breakfast is the same day-over-day, but it was delicious. Easy to get cabs from the stay, so it wasn't a hassle getting around. If you're looking for extreme quite, then this is your place.

South AfricaThere is nothing to NOT like!
Beautiful, spacious rooms and bathrooms with gorgeous views of the property. The complimentary wine tasting was wonderful, and we enjoyed it with some of Paulina’s wood fired pizza. Breakfast at the guest house was truly one for the books (the butternut and Chèvre omelette was exceptional!) To top it all was the wonderful hospitality and fantastic service from all the amazing staff at Basse Provence.

United KingdomThe houses were beautiful and historic with views of the equally beautiful and historic Franchshoek valley. Within the house the accommodation was modern and very comfortable. The staff were all delightful and checking in and out was very smooth. There was a small but very welcome swimming pool. An added bonus was the wine tasting at the Rickety Bridge cellars was included in the price.

United KingdomThe complimentary wine tasting. This is at the adjacent Rickety Bridge vineyard but the wine offered was very poor. The next day we took the tram to do wine tasting but avoided Rickety Bridge!
Large room. All facilities good. Nicely set back from the road. Good breakfast.

GermanyThe sound insulation could be better. We encountered a minor hiccup with a hidden cricket in the room affecting sleep quality. Despite efforts to locate and resolve the issue, it remained elusive. Additionally, the Wi-Fi signal was not robust
Our stay at this hotel in Franschhoek was highlighted by the complimentary wine tasting at Rickety Bridge, a thoughtful gesture that set the tone for a memorable visit. The service was exceptionally attentive, with the convenience of being able to contact them anytime via WhatsApp.Nestled in the picturesque surrounds of a renocated farm, the ambiance was charming.
