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 States of AmericaPerhaps we missed something but we assumed we were staying at the main building, not across the street. We have always admired the main pool area and booked for that very reason. It was slightly disappointing we weren’t in the main building. Overall, even that wasn’t enough to deter us from returning next time.
The breakfast was very pleasant and of course, offered stunning views! We booked here because the pool is simply stunning!

United KingdomWe couldn't stay longer!
Everything, from arrival to departure the team were amazing. We stayed here a year ago and it was as good if not even better. Rooms are well equipped, hot tub is a perk- I'd only say the balcony wasn't totally private so neighbors would walk by us or dip hands in. Location is spot on with beautiful views and breakfast is delicious- simple but perfectly executed with a variety available on the continent buffet too! We will be back again soon!

South AfricaMy stay at Harbour House Hermanus was simply delightful. Nestled in the heart of Hermanus, its location couldn't have been more perfect, offering easy access to all the charming shops and delectable restaurants that the area has to offer. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel incredibly welcome. Kevin, the manager, stood out with his exceptional hospitality and genuine eagerness to ensure that my stay was nothing short of excellent. His assistance and helpful recommendations truly enhanced my experience. The rooms were both comfortable and pristine, providing a cozy sanctuary to unwind after a day of exploring. The attention to cleanliness did not go unnoticed, and I appreciated the care taken to maintain such high standards. Breakfast was a highlight of my mornings at Harbour House. The delicious spread offered a variety of options to suit every palate, and each dish was prepared with care and attention to detail. It was the perfect start to my day. Overall, my time at Harbour House Hermanus was memorable, thanks to its ideal location, attentive staff, comfortable accommodations, and delectable breakfast offerings. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a truly enjoyable stay in Hermanus.

SpainMy only criticism would be the bed in the primary bedroom was so hard a mattress topper or softer mattress would have made my stay even more comfortable but maybe that’s just my personal preference

The room was very spacious, and we had a balcony which looked out over the bay. It was close to many good restaurants, and all the local amenities. A fantastic breakfast was taken outdoors in the garden, which also looked out over the sea. The swimming pool was a good size and beautiful. All the staff were really friendly and helpful. A lovely start to our holiday.

United KingdomThe bed was very hard like sleeping on a board! So we didn’t sleep very well. Our room was facing a restaurant across the road, so everyone could see into our room if we didn’t have the net curtain closed! Breakfast was good but food a little cold and sometimes my poached eggs were not soft as requested.
Excellent location in town. We loved being able to sit outside for breakfast. Good selection on breakfast menu.

IrelandOur bedroom was very comfortable but required a walk from the building we stayed in to the main hotel which at night is not ideal and can be a slightly confusing route though short.
Property and overall product is excellent as you would expect in this price range.
