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...).

South AfricaThe breakfast was delicious and home made which is awesome, but we would suggest slightly bigger portions of the cooked part of the meal for people like my husband who ate of everything and was still a bit hungry. We would also suggest slightly better filter coffee for us coffee lovers who don't like the normal Jacobs tasting coffee (that's just us being coffee snobs, and this would not bother everyone😅
We loved the property, and we enjoyed seeing the wildlife while we had breakfast. We saw Zebras who came all the way to the breakfast table, saw multiple birds, and massive baboons! Roger is an excellent host who caters to all your personal needs. He is very friendly and helpful. He also gave some great restaurant suggestions. We've been to Champagne Valley a few times now, but he helped us discover a wonderful new restaurant that was perfect for viewing the sunset. Thank you, Roger, for the awesome weekend!

Josh our host was very warm and kind. His hospitality will never be forgotten. Communication from the time the booking is confirmed until your arrival to the property was excellent. His recommendation on activities and places to explore were spot on. Had the best spinach and feta quiche for breakfast.

South AfricaThe walls being slightly thin in our unit meant hearing the neighbours quite easily from our bedroom whenever they were in. But it was not enough of an issue to detract from the enjoyment of our stay
The location was absolutely stunning. A peaceful getaway for those looking to unwind from a busy lifestyle. Our host Rodger went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was as stress free and relaxing as possible.

South AfricaThe host Roger is an absolute legend. He is very informed and can list multiple things for you to do in the area. Breakfasts are very good and the coffee is amazing. If you're going as a group of friends or family friends, then this is awesome as you can all have breakfast together. Otherwise, you get to meet new people during breakfast. It's very cosy and clean and smells fresh inside and outside. It's really a welcoming experience and peaceful!

South AfricaOur room did not have an AC but a fan was available for use. The shower was also very difficult to balance the temperature with the tap machanism that’s there. Other than that we generally enjoyed our stay and the hosts’ hospitality made the experience all worth it.
Absolute delight being hosted by Roger. He’s such a kind and well informed host. Very hands on and makes you feel right at home. The property was also lovely and very neat with all the basic essentials available. The breakfast was also nice my sister thoroughly enjoyed the mushroom :)
