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...).

AustraliaNothing to really complain about, was perfect for what we wanted.
Glen Afric provided a very family friendly location for complete immersion on a game reserve, we had giraffes/elephants/ zebras calmly walking around the property. Definitely would recommend. Note: Elephant feeding is only on Sunday lunchtime.

United KingdomNothing really.
Charming and interesting location. Traditional but well maintained hotel, huge restaurant with lovely views to a duck pond and garden below, then out to a marvellous vista leading to nearby hills. Zebras and Giraffes came good and close to the property fence at times. Staff friendly and helpful, especially our guide Nadia and the bubbly young lady serving dinner then breakfast on 8 and 9 November respectively. Nadia also took us to the "Wild At Heart" house set, which we loved. Interesting and fun game drive, seeing nearby elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, warthogs and (in enclosures) lions, cheetahs, leopards and (pet rescue) tigers.

South AfricaThe service at the restaurant for our dinner was a tad sluggish took long to serve us and did not check up on us if we wanted to order additional drinks ect.
The staff went above and beyond, being exceptionally helpful in guiding us to our room. They made our anniversary truly memorable by adding a special touch, with no additional charges. They adorned the bed with delicate flower petals and skillfully crafted towels into swan shapes forming a heart.

AustriaOnly thing I could point out is the hot water. For some reason the shower in our room didn’t work that well and only one person was able to shower with hot water. The second person would have to shower in cold water which isn’t ideal in winter.
The lodge was very clean and beautiful. We had the Livingston room which had an amazing view!!! The restaurant was good- we ate there every night. The staff were very friendly and helpful! I would definitely recommend the game drives- very personal and interesting.

United KingdomAccommodation was poor overall. Netting around the beds would be good as this would stop bugs falling from the thatch onto the beds. We don't mind insects but a bit of dusting would be great. There were house spiders everywhere even under the sofas. All the fixtures were basically covered in dust and cobwebs. The lighting was poor and the place could do with an upgrade. My wife unfortunately was stressed and did not sleep on either night. I would go back for the Safari but not sure if we would stay in the Lodge.
We found the staff really friendly and the service was really good. The safari experience and sunset drive were amazing. Nadia was amazing and knowledgeable. She was friendly and very interactive with us and the group.
