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...).

KenyaOn site transportation when it is raining. We had to wait a long time to get a ride to our room with several bags as it was raining so perhaps investing in a few golf karts for such days to make wait times shorter
The views from the lodge are phenomenal but even more impressive was how consistently attentive the staff was throughout our stay. Loved the food as well and was appreciative for the accommodations made for us traveling with small children. Highly recommended

United KingdomThe fact that every night you stay incurs a full day's park fees, currently US$60 per person per 24 hours for non-Kenyan or EAC residents. I feel fees should be discounted for those who stay in the park.
Excellent, inclusive, large buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner, catering to local and international tastes.

United StatesYou have to pay to enter the national park- an additional $60 USD per night for each night you will stay at the resort. Then, the drive is 20 km (~45min) over bumpy roads with large puddles, so ensure you have an appropriate vehicle. There is no wifi in the rooms and very spotty (at best) wifi in the shared areas.
The staff couldn't have been friendlier- they truly welcomed me and helped make my weekend special. The views and facilities were fantastic. The food was delicious.

KenyaI enjoyed the location, it's exactly what I needed to unplug from my usual city life. The views are panoramic views & relaxing, the food is delicious and the staff are very caring. It was as though I was home away from home. I also appreciated that they have an in-house clinician within the facility. I would definitely come back again. Thank you team Sopa for an amazing experience.

KenyaSuch a fantastic lodge, contemporary and yet in keeping with the Kenyan style of lodges. Absolutely beautiful cottages with the most amazing views of Lake Nakuru and the surrounding hills. Beautiful views from the cottage, poolside, bar and open dining areas. lovely staff, especially in the dining area. Facility headed by a warm-hearted caring Manager, Mr James Mwema. The head chef, Joseph, and his team create the most amazing meals. Their chef for Indian vegetarian food, Caroline, prepares delicious homestyle Indian food. I would highly recommend staying at this lodge

United Arab EmiratesDespite that it is strange the water (other than the complimentary 2 bottles in the room), fresh juice, soft drinks and bottles juice are all chargeable separately in a supposedly full board package, but we were not informed by the waiter when we were placing our order.
View was really good and rooms were clean. Receptionist (Halima) was exceptionally nice and friendly. The reason to significantly increase the rating on this platform and others.

United KingdomThe upholstery in the room was stained so it gave you the impression that they were not as clean (the room was very clean though).
Huge rooms with panoramic view of lake Nakuru. Very good food and coffee. Excellent staff, especially the ladies at the restaurant and Kelvin who shared his knowledge about the animals around - he shared more details than our game driver did across 6 days (we booked a game driver via a different hotel we stayed at in Nairobi), so we really appreciated Kelvin’s time and knowledge sharing.
