How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewI had a wonderful stay at Bubbles Lodge. It's the perfect place for a hike up Mount Kinangop. I was particularly impressed by the helpful and friendly staff. Many thanks to Elisabeth and Charles for all their help and good service. The food on offer was delicious and reasonably priced.
The Wifi was quite slow
Thanks Michael for the rating and good comments. We assist our guests explore the whole Aberdare ecosystem and we look forward to your coming back.

Verified reviewWhen the night porter allowed drunk guests to party in the next door room at 0300 and despite my complaining in person, the noise didn’t stop until 0430
The food was unimaginative and very plain. Despite the disturbed sleep the first night, the staff tried to be helpful but you are staying in a primitive African village hotel, so don’t worry if there is no water, they will bring you a bucket to wash in, be happy with the food they offer. Best of all, they are friendly and hospitable, so you can forgive many failings
Thankyou for your candid and honest comments. Primitive is relative though. We look forward to your next visit and we will act on the issues raised.

Verified reviewGreat Accomodation and Location if you want to visit the Aberdare National Park, rooms are great size with balcony, food from restaurant delivered to your room, hot shower, clean, safe, and a fire place which is a very nice touch so bring fire wood, as we had our camping kit we could make Tea on the open fire place... And makes the room toasty warm... The fish and roast potatoes were excellent... And very good Price overall!!!
Didn't like that we had only found the place when we were leaving... Seems to be hard to find such a good place when on the road as a muzungo... Photos don't do it justice

Verified reviewThe room and evening dinner in the restaurant were both excellent value for money. The location was OK, and easy to find on the main road, although the very poor road condition into Aberdare during the time of our stay meant that drive took longer than we had hoped. Friendly and helpful staff. Secure parking.
The room was a little basic, but was good enough, given the exceptional price.
