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.).

NetherlandsFriendly staff and beautiful garden and great to have a house with an open hearth. The house was a bit dark and the toilet was not well adjusted to the floor. The shower was in the bath tub and a bit simple. The restaurant was friendly but the breakfast was mainly warm food and we are not used to that.

United StatesThe receptionist was not around and took about 15 minutes to help us check in. The restaurant staff are very few so took a while to order lunch and then the prices are a little high for the area. Breakfast was only available until 10am in which it’s the same food for all guests. It was a good portion and tasteful.
The overall area was nice, quiet and peaceful. The family terrace room was very spacious and had 3 needs so definitely can be for a family trip. Beautiful green garden where weddings are hosted at. Hotel nearby a choma restaurant if don’t want to eat at the hotel’s restaurant. Hotel is near Limuru with other activities to explore- gardens, tea farms and more.

We enjoyed our stay. The place has good bones, but needs some work. The staff made us feel welcomed. We also stayed during the week so it was so peaceful. Location is great, you can easily drive to other spots in the area for lunch and dinners.

KenyaWe arrived for check-in quite late, but the reception staff were incredibly helpful. Unfortunately, due to our late arrival, we missed dinner, but they advised us to book before 6 pm for future reservations. The breakfast the next morning was satisfying. Mr. Maina, the receptionist, kindly gave us a quick tour of the premises. Their grounds are ideal for intimate weddings and events like birthdays, and their buffet choices are reasonably priced.

KenyaCheck in took me 30 minutes despite completing the self check in on the portal. I was forced to sit in the lobby for 30 minutes on the night I checked in, it was chilly and I was exhausted. Poor management handover despite calling during the day, confirming my booking and expected check in time Requested for a Hot water flask at night it was not availed. Requested for a similar breakfast as on my 1st day, got something completely different without consulting me 1st. Eggs were overcooked & saltless, no vegetables as requested. It was very disappointing especially because I had requested the same breakfast for a colleague who had chronic ailments and was very specific about her diet.
