Each 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 are 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 Wi-Fi. 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

South AfricaThe location doesn't come across as completely safe, and the gates are not electronic. Someone manually opens and closes the gate.
The place was clean, quiet, with decent parking for my vehicle. It was a perfect stop for a couple on the move.

South AfricaThe hotel was being renovated, the room smelt like a construction worker was working inside. The hotel doesn't have a proper place to serve food. The staff uses the Cushions from the chairs to sleep on the floor. The chicken Alfredo had no mushrooms or chicken fillets but more like chicken sausage. When we asked the chef he insists that it's chicken fillets. But wait the best is yet too come. We left our room at 3pm and arrived early hours of the morning to find out someone came in our room, took a shit & a shower, used all the bathroom accessories, my wife's bag was handled and yet they still go too reception and get another room, they hotel did nothing to notify us about the situation, only when we arrive at 2:45am we find this out. Blessing the guy at reception doesn't know what to do, they have no manager on duty, no security, absolutely nobody else but the guy at reception. Noman "The manager" phone was off but we spoke to him prior and he says he needs to see cctv footage and he'll get back too me. Still waiting up till now. But wait there's more..... the key I had for my room opens all the doors in the hotels. Just ask room 102 & 114. My absolute worst stay of my life in a hotel. They need to be closed down. They do not saying they are currently renovating their property they only have signs of no refunds all over when you enter. Outside of the property looks diminished & this supposed to be a 4* hotel.
There was actually nothing to like. It was my worst accommodation that I've stayed in. Yet I've stayed there previously and it was 20 x better than this stay.

South AfricaDid not get the rooms that was booked(Ground floor) No room service as advertised. Reception couldn't allocate payment. We had to open the gates ourselves for the parking area. Parking area is in bad condition. No mini bar as advertised. Strugled to allocate facilities (pool, spa and restaurant)Other guest left doors of their rooms open, any person walking in hallway could see inside the occupied rooms. Reception didn't explain where to locate our rooms. Only one lift was working. Staircase wasn't accessable. The room didn't have a coffee machine as advertised. The kettle cord was to short to reach a plug(I had to place the kettle on the carpet) there was no scissors to open the coffee and milk sachet (I had to use my teeth)
The sheets was nice and fresh. Cleaning crew kept the room in perfect condition. The aircon was great during the heat.

South AfricaThe room had few issues, constant trip of electricity and plugs as a result we weren’t able to charge our phones over night. The bathroom of the room also had a problem with the shower head, water was spraying out of the shower to the floor and also leaking out of the shower. Room was cleaned very late and had to make arrangements for staff to clean.
The location is well placed relevant to the centre of the City. Very welcoming staff and receptionist. Very efficient staff maintenance staff

South AfricaThe location is in a very bad area. There is a funny smell in the hotel. I expected to find a fully operating restaurant, which was not the case. No bacon is served at the buffet breakfast. There are no shops close by and you have to drive through a very sketchy area to get anywhere.

South AfricaOur room TV was not working, when we informed them about it, we were told maintenance is not available to assist they will only be able to send them the next morning, we checked out at 10:45 the next morning and still waited. When we phoned for someone to assist with luggage, they said they are sending someone, we ended up waiting 30 minutes and still no one has pitched, we ended up carrying all luggage ourselves. Maintenance team is grinding and working with power tools while you are there, very noisy and dusty smell all over the hall due to the work they do. We pay for a stay and facilities is out of order, noisy environment.
The room was clean, receptionist that check us in was very friendly.
