Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Was very cold in the second bedroom overnight despite having heat pump on and internal doors open, however it was the middle of winter and we were in a tent so the kids just slept in their puffer jackets.
Cool experience being in a tent but still having creature comforts. Loved the four post bed and the restaurant was yummy too.

Why a bedside table on only one side of the queen bed? Annoying! Plug under the bed hard to access. Advertises a restaurant but only open weekends.
Bathroom very good. Heating worked well

Loved the whole tent experience thing ,very quiet and close to the zoo location and great to hop in the pool.The shower screen leaked water under and around the shower screen so that water leaked around to the toilet area which is a safety risk issue. Otherwise a great experience.

We dined in at the restaurant. There was a great atmosphere and the staff were very friendly but the two pizzas we ordered had burnt bottoms, with the pizza supreme overly cooked and dry on the top, and the two schnitzels we ordered were over-cooked - were a dark brown colour and very dry.
We loved the accommodation and the staff.

The quality and cost of breakfast at the lodge could be improved. But the convenience of being able to walk from the tent to the lodge restaurant is superb.
The family tents were superb with all the comfort requirements - air conditioning, en-suite, bar fridge, TV. The venue had all the needs for a family including the lodge restaurant and bar, pool and playground. The venue offers a unique experience of sleeping in a tent but with all the amenities that can be found in a hotel - a super comfy camping experience in a way.

We had dinner on-site which was okay but could have been better.
We had a wonderful stay in this unique accommodation which exceeded our expectations. The interior of the tents was fantastic, really high quality which made for a great stay. Would absolutely recommend this to others as it was something we won't forget.
