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...).

South AfricaI did not like the fact that there is a carpet in the room and the room could use a bit of an upgrade. Especially the TV.
I like the aesthetics in the reception and the African decor. I like that there's a variety of restaurants aswell. The rooms were clean

South AfricaThe staff service could be a bit better, (more attentive & friendly) at the hotel restaurant. Housekeeping also didn't leave the allocated towels and water as required in our room, however it was rectified after calling them.
It was such a beautiful stay, so serene. Our room had a garden view and was just perfectly situated. Loved that it was so clean and the bath was a spacious area.

South AfricaGrace at reception was excellent. She upgraded our rooms to more modern rooms without hesitation. Our stay was great and the Mowana Spa the next morning is greatly recommended. Breakfast at the spa and treatments were excellent. The wine and chocolate pairing at the Taste Room also met our expectations. Supper at the Kings Boma was not great. Maybe because it was during the week and a bit later in the evening. The waitress was amazing, but the variety was not what we expected and experienced at the same restaurant on previous visits.

South AfricaI was initially allocated another room when I got there there were ants in the bathroom and the lady at reception was very great and allocated me a different room that was nice and big. In the room there is a coffee machine and unfortunately it was not working and I could not make it room coffee or tea because there was also no kettle in the room.
The property is overall recovering well from the last time I was there. The room I stayed in was clean and spacious- could do with a sofa but liked everything.

South AfricaThe hotel's airport shuttle wanted to charge R750 one way and would be picking up other passengers, so I think that was a bit excessive. I had a comfort uber from the airport for R550, all to myself, without any trouble and uberGo back was R300. TV reception was poor and not a lot of choice.
I had a lovely dinner on the deck listening to the birdsong. The fish and chips was good but not great. It was the beautiful garden setting and a decent sized mojito that made it special. Nice big, clean room. Comfy bed. Coffee making fascilities and had a hot chocolate.
