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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

The only thing I can say the food wasn’t that good as usual and the choice was low coz most food wasn’t there. The food was also too salty but the omelette guy was a star in the kitchen and so nice

South AfricaThe rooms have become slightly dated. There was no bottled water in my fridge which I usually get. The selection of TV channels is outdated. Should at least have Netflix login. The coffee station also needs updating with a proper place with kettle setup. Right now its a mission to make coffee.
I love this hotel and have been staying there for many many years. I used to get a welcome note with a bowl of snacks etc in my room to welcome me back. This has sadly gone. But it always continues to feel like home away from home.

South AfricaHospitality in the casino, breakfast, they don't want to provide us with different size of coffee cup, they only have small cups, their cold breakfast doen not even have biscuits to eat cream, with but they provide cream for what
The staff at the casino, are not helpful especially the cashier's, they don't want to help a client in terms of withdrawal, and they are ignorant, they need to be trained how to handle the guest especially us coming outside their country, we go the not only for accomodations, but to play slots, 80% of staff in the casino are rude, and if that is not addressed it will affect the hotel booking as well, that is why the turnout is so poor, is because of their attitude

South AfricaWhen I arrived I was given a room what was far smaller than what was advertised on Booking.com. According to the property the rooms are incorrectly advertised and the room I booked doesn't event exist! The rooms are quite old but clean. The room doesn't have basics like spoons for tea (despite requesting on all days for these) and the iron supplied was broken and missing buttons. The final nail in the coffin was the hotel debited by card twice for the booking and despite me calling them multiple times the money has not been returned yet.
Food was good- Botswana generally has good fresh food. Some staff was very friendly and helpful.

South AfricaThe batteries of the locking system in both the first two rooms I was given were not working. As a result I could not open the doors. They kept on giving me tha cards, but they could not open. What I didnt like in second instant was that the person , who assisted with the room, still expected to come and collect the card downstairs, instead of apologising and sending someone else to bring the card. I had long driving from SA and I expected to rest but i could not as it was going up and down with locks that were not working. The basin drains in the bathrooms are not working properly as the water takes longer to leave the bowl.
