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 AfricaThe drive into the place requires an elevated/4x4 vehicle especially if it rains. The game is limited.
Great staff, the bar had good drinks and is nice and wide, the walk to the cottages is also in the wild so you still get the experience, the game rangers know a lot about nature and teach you on the drives, the game drives are included in the package, the food is definitely 5star and delicious with options to choose from, the outside pool at the Rafiki cottage was as expected and lights up in the night. No regrets

South AfricaThe rooms at the main lodge needs an upgrade, there is no air-conditioning in a heat prone area with mosquitoes, the showers not suitable for tall people.
The staff was amazing. Charity the hostess, Daniella the Student Game Ranger and one lady who is responsible for turn down were my absolute favorites. The food was the best.

South AfricaThe place was very hostile, and staff and management were rigid and did not go out of their way to make us welcome We were required to pay extra money just to get a television in our room🥲🥲, what happened to upgrading customers to a comfortable room? I wouldn’t recommend this lodge to my friends and my family, it didn’t offer any value for the money we paid, unfortunately

South AfricaHad such an unpleasant stay at Zwahili lodge. The images you see online are misleading and the lodge has not been maintained in a long time. Room had a spider web inside the shower, and basic essentials like hand wash gel, shower cap, gown or slippers were not provided. Fruits in the room were over ripe. You are not provided with complimentary water in your room, if you want water you must pay. For the exorbitant price one paid, it is honestly not a 5 star experience and I would not recommend this lodge. Sent owner an email to communicate the quality of service received and her response was, "I am sorry we did not deliver what you were expecting."
Charity the Manager really tried her best to make our stay pleasant in the midst of all the challenges we witnessed. So definitely grateful for that.
