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...).

NorwayAdditional charging for late or early arrival. We did not need to use this but it seems inappropriate to charge per hour for early departure when the only thing is just to open the gate. We received a gate opener the day before. Why could one not just drop the key in a box
Room, staff facilities. It's an incredible place close to the airport. Absolutely recomend

Great quiet, spacious and comfy b&b that was the perfect place for us to rest and digest after a long journey. Friendly and helpful staff. We were lucky enough to be there on a Sunday, when the restaurant on the property was open for a very tasty lunch.

South AfricaOur stay at Schoon Huis Manor was absolutely perfect! Alfred, who helped us during our stay, was incredibly friendly and helpful, which made us feel very welcome. The manor itself is so lovely and beautifully kept, with such a peaceful atmosphere. Our room was spotless and very comfortable. Breakfast was served right on time and was delicious. Everything about this place exceeded our expectations – highly recommended!

Singaporeour stay is already 10/10...it would have been 200% perfect stay if the room was warmed when we arrived... And as previous reviews.. the sound of airplane... sometimes, we do notice it.. it didn't wake us up from our sleep at all though..
It's a very comfortable stay.. the towels, bathroom, bed was so soft.. after a week in the bush... this is is a luxury! Pick up by Khumbu was on time and very efficient.. as we arrive late and hungry.. he was really kind to offer us a ride for a take away. He waited patiently for about 20 mins and didn't charge us extra for the detour. Really app

SingaporeThe proximity to the airport does mean you get the odd plane flying over however it didn't bother me much as it wasn't very frequent.
The room was beautiful. Some little broken spots here and there added to the old world charm without affecting the overall ability to use or enjoy the facilities. Bathroom fittings were new and tidy. Gardens are beautiful. Alfred was wonderful to deal with as was Dominique. Less than 15mins from the airport by car. Numerous restaurants close by to order delivery and Alfred kindly assisted in receiving the order. So much better than simply staying at a hotel chain.

NetherlandsThe loud airplanes that we had just used ourselves, so we have no right to complain really, especially since it’s such a short ride.
What a wonderful castle like place. The wooden stair case is beautiful, the decorations fit the manor perfectly. The staff and owners are equally friendly and helpful, even beyond expectations. Breakfast was precisely what we would have wished for. It was 5C when we arrived and the heaters had already been turned on. So welcoming. The shuttle service was very much appreciated. The beds were comfortable, the curtains were very good, everything was clean and well maintained. Just perfect.
