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.).

NorwayI absolutely loved my time here!!! The whole staff, especially Keishe-Lee and Armand, have gone above and beyond and helped me so much! They made my stay absolutely incredible. The dinners were so delicious and so varied, never had a bad meal. The ambience the whole team creates was just magical, dinners were so lovely - talking about all the daily sightings. The view from the deck and my room was absolutely amazing and you can spot animals all day/night long. If you're wondering if you should book, just do it!

SpainThe staff was super friendly and kind, and did everything that was in their hands to accommodate our needs. The tent was big and clean, with a deck with astonishing views to the river. We saw 8 hippos, 2 elephants and plenty of antílopes on the first night from the deck The dinner and breakfast served were generous and very tasty. Prime location, we will repeat if we are back in Kruger. Be aware that you are in the nature, you shouldn't mind having frogs as your pets :)

AustraliaNot a big issue, but maybe offering afternoon tea would be good. Also an expresso machine for some good coffee would start the morning well.
Room overlooking Crocodile River, beautiful sunset looking over towards Kruger, 5 minutes to the entry gate to the Park, 10 minutes drive to town for cafes, fuel, supermarkets. Great breakfast with ala carte choices, same day laundry service. Bonus of game viewing from your deck, including elephants, hippos, giraffes. Highlight was the food for dinner cooked over the charcoal braai.

Communal tables for the evening meals added to the experience- meeting travellers from around the globe and sharing sightings! Mostly thank you to all the staff and especially Anton and Charmaine for your good company, sharing your knowledge ( identifying birds from our photos was amazing) and being so kind in accommodating our food needs. Hope to be back.

GermanyIt was an amazing experience. We had a really good time at this place. The accommodation is directly at the Crocodile Bridge Gate. The view over the river is amazing and you can spot all the animals that come down to the river. The dinner is super tasty. We had dinner with all the other guests from the lodge and we were chatting about our experiences in the park. We can highly recommend this place.
