Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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 KingdomThe sofa bed in our villa could do with a new mattress as it wasnt very comfortable. The actual bed was great though.
The staff were great, no request was too small. The breakfast was amazing, and while the pools were small, the drinks by the pool were a great touch. The Monneaux restaurant was also wonderful.

United KingdomThe Suites are everything you want, comfortable, quiet & clean. Breakfast with its array of fresh fruits, breads & juices followed by an excellent omelette or poached eggs perfectly cooked is worth getting up for. The pool area is lovely, serving delicious lunches on the lawn. It is a restful setting with the wine train tootling past every half hour or so. The staff led by Bonetta are wonderful. Nothing is too much trouble. Monneaux Restaurant serves excellent food with tasty plates, leave room for pudding. Well worth a visit.

United KingdomAir conditioning unit in the bedroom was quite noisy. We had rooms in the building above the restaurant and it could be quite noisy early in the morning with lots of banging around from staff, even though breakfast isn't served here.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Franschoek Country House and Villas. The staff were all absolutely excellent, so friendly and helpful and a real plus point. The pool area was lovely and we enjoyed breakfast each morning which offered a great selection. We just had the basic rooms, which were very spacious, but as these rooms in particular are older, don't expect all mod-cons. They were perfectly pleasant though. We really appreciated the hotel shuttle service which was very efficient and made going out to dinner a breeze.
