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...).

FranceTree House, as with its sister hotel Zest Boutique Hotel is well placed in Green Point and exceptionally well run. In addition to the individual atmosphere that a luxury boutique hotel brings, the staff are very friendly, helpful and informative. I have stayed at both hotels many times over the last few years and recommend them wholeheartedly.

AustraliaFirst room I had faced the road. A bit noisy. Second room was great.
The rooms facing the harbour are obviously the best. The ones facing the road can be noisy. Staff were fantastic. Elton and his team do a brilliant job. The breakfast was great and the chef does a great breakfast.

This hotel was a lovely little hideaway after our safari and hiking adventure! Incredibly welcoming staff, cozy rooms, stylish interior, delicious breakfast, and walking distance to the waterfront – for us, it was perfect, and we would definitely book again on our next visit. We had a room with a view, and it was peaceful and quiet.

United StatesWe thought the location was a good one - right between the V&A waterfront and CBD. However, we were told it was not safe to walk even a short distance at night. This is clearly for our benefit, but we kind of felt we had to stay in the room once it was dark (probably easier in Dec. than May when it starts getting dark at 6). We did not understand the issues at night, having freely walked in major cities elsewhere late at night or early morning hours, but the staff kept us safe. They truly could not have been kinder, and made our experience better. We should have done more research ahead of time. Use their drivers. Listen to their advice. Booking through hotel is for guest safety, not to pad a bill. This is a reputable, kind establishment. If you are a light sleeper, ask for a quiet room.
Staff was incredibly kind. They were attentive to all our needs. There is breakfast every morning (delicious), cake in the afternoon, a gin bar (local gins), wines, snacks, etc. They have a driver to take you places (add on to the bill), and can call a back up driver if needed. My friend got a massage and said it was fantastic. There are walkable areas during the day. Hotel is beautiful, clean, and has a wonderful lounge and pool area. Staff was easily the highlight, and they go out of their way to make guests feel welcome. Every single person we met whilst there was friendly and kind. Truly wonderful people who want to give you a fantastic experience.

South AfricaThe parking isn’t great especially for large vehicles. We felt the breakfast room could have blinds or an awing of sorts - it was very hot and blinding with the sun beating down on us in the mornings.
Lovely location. Delicious breakfast. Really clean but most importantly the staff were beyond exceptional!! Well done each and everyone.

A very good location close to restaurants, bars, the waterfront etc, but set back enough to be quiet and peaceful. Everywhere was so accessible from here. We were so sad to leave.
