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...).

CanadaI love the excellent staff. Everyone was happy to help, despite being very busy. The overall vibe and design of the place is really that of a safari lodge. Enjoyed swimming in the refreshing pool and watching wild animals in the watering hole such as elephants, buffaloes, warthogs while having delicious breakfast. My husband and I also enjoyed the Boma Dinner and Dance show, what a night! We also appreciate their effort to promote public awareness in the conservation efforts for the vultures in their culture vulture show. 5 stars!

South AfricaI battled with the height of the bed, was way to high, consider offering a step. Prices are high but this was consistent with the whole of Victoria Falls.
Lovely room, with a good view of the water hole, excellent restaurant and bar. Good shower pressure. Lovely friendly and helpful staff

New ZealandOur stay was too short!
What a beautiful setting. Staff was very friendly and offered to assist without even having to be asked. We stayed in the Double Suite with Waterhole View. It was nicely decorated. You can either sit on the balcony, or in the upstairs bedroom, and watch the animals drink at the waterhole from the Suite. The view was worth every cent. Don't forget to bring binoculars! Unit had everything we needed. A separate toilet downstairs, and a full bathroom upstairs, which included a shower and bath. It also had a mini bar included. Breakfast at the restaurant was delicious. You can either eat from the buffet, or order off the menu, or choose from both. The main building has various levels, which includes the restaurant, swimming pool, and lounge seating, with all the levels having a view over the waterhole. The viewing of the Vulture feeding at 1pm was an amazing experience and I would recommend it to everyone visiting the area. The ranger was very informative and you could see he loved doing what he does. There is no charge for this, but a tip is always appreciated.

The territory, the views, the staff. Everything was of absolutely exceptional quality and surpassed expectations. Watching animals around the water hole throughout the day , wherever you were , your room or the pool, is as absolutely incredible.
