Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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...).

The room was stunning, beautiful furnishings and newly built. The standout was the bathroom and the bath tub. Breakfast was lovely each morning, the staff were extremely friendly. The lavender had started to bloom which made for a nice outlook each day. Thanks for making our stay so wonderful.

South AfricaIt's a short drive out of town, so consider renting a car. No restaurant on-site — a microwave in the room and small vending kiosk would be a great addition — especially for guests who prefer not to drive out again after settling in. Overall, Lavender Farm offers excellent value for money, and I would definitely stay again!
The property is surrounded by beautiful gardens and a serene environment that immediately calms your mind. It was my second stay at Lavender Farm Lodge. My sisters and I got connecting rooms 5 and 6. The rooms were spacious, clean, and offered a great sense of privacy — perfect for relaxing and unwinding. I especially loved waking up to the stunning views of the mountains framed by endless rows of lavender fields. It offers excellent value for money and delicious breakfast. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway with natural charm and comfort, I highly recommend Lavender Farm. We'll definitely be returning!

United KingdomI booked a room with a view of the lavender farm however our room had an interconnecting door and we could hear every word of the people next door (they weren’t being loud). Ronel was very helpful in moving us to another room. I have read some other reviews on here about noise from adjoining rooms.
The location is absolutely stunning, and Ronel’s service was outstanding! The room had excellent heating (it was quite cold in the evening) and the added bonus of a heated blanket - divine!

United StatesOutside of the concierge staff, some of the restaurant staff, although friendly and well intentioned, do need a bit more training on how to take requests from guests and also when clearing the table. Sometimes they were too eager and although trying to be helpful, often made us feel like they were shuffling us out of the room.
All the staff were warm and friendly. The room was nice and spacious and the view of the lavender farm was memorable.
