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...).

GermanyThe location was perfect. So many wonderful coffee shops and boutiquey shops, galleries, and practical offerings (groceries, access to other neighborhoods, etc.) within a block or so. We also loved the unit we stayed in and enjoyed the balcony. Our room felt very secure and the neighborhood seemed safe. The owners are fun, funny, engaged, knowledgeable, and committed to making their guests’ stays delightful. Ours was.

South AfricaCould not leave the doors/windows facing the outside wall open during the night. It would have been nice if they had hooks to secure them when there is wind.
Extremely clean, good lay out. We were upgraded for free. Hosts are very friendly and helpful.

South AfricaI loved everything about the room. I have nothing to complain about.
The room is very clean and modern, better than in the pictures. They even bought a baby cob for our infant which made our stay more comfortable. The coffee was delicious and we loved the sparkling wine they gave us on New Years. We had alot of towels in our room, enough for the entire weekend..

United KingdomThe apartment was great but the unique thing about the place was Stephan, the owner. He can unlock what you want to do, where you need to go. You just won’t get that kind of insight into a Cape Town from anyone else.

BrazilVery nice and welcoming staff, available when we needed. We could also leave our luggage after check-out, and could go for a last nice walk around De Waterkant. André and Stephan gave us great tips and did everything they could to make us enjoy our stay. We were very near nice restaurants and cafés at De Waterkant, walking distance from downtown Cape Town (museums, squares) and the WaterFront (shops and Aquarium).
