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...).

United StatesThat I couldn't stay longer! It was heaven on earth!
There are no words to describe this wonderful haven perched on a riverbed where the wildlife come to drink and play! Not only did I get to watch elephants, hippos, impala, giraffes, crocodiles right from my deck, but the room itself was absolutely incredible! A scene from Out of Africa comes to mind. The luxury, the furnishings..... And the service was impeccable! You will want for nothing here, including gourmet food, incredible staff attending to all your needs, even escorting you to your rooms at night. The food is top notch and the dining area overlooks the riverbed, at night lit up so romantically with candles and oil lamps. And the game drives with Maynard! Twice a day!!! He made it so fun and exciting seeking cheetahs, lions, elephants, giraffe, hippos, buffalo, zebra and more! I cannot say enough good about this place! I hated to leave........

United StatesTho it’s all inclusive the selection of red wines and alcohol included was cheap considering the price we paid and the easy availability of delicious South African wines, gins, vodkas etc! No WIFI and no urgency to get it reinstated. The staff did drive us to Imbali as needed and I appreciated that.
Everything! The staff, the food, the game drives, the table settings, the plunge pool, the animals walking thro camp!

AustraliaOne of the best and most luxurious stays ever. Awesome safaris. Animals right on doorstep coming to drink from river. Cannot reccomend this place any more highly! Staff was so great. Each meal was a fine dining experience. We forgot our passports in safe and only realised when we got to Skukuza. They went through effort of meeting us halfway to give us the forgotten items. Literally going the extra mile!

United StatesI had messaged reservations that we would be there for lunch but they seemed surprised by our arrival. They quickly prepared a modified lunch and got our rooms ready in time for the afternoon game drive so in the end all was fine.
The rooms are beautiful with fine details and everything you could possibly need. The staff was incredibly friendly and took time to learn everyone’s names. We loved our game drives with Mynhardt. Just wish we had more time to spend enjoying the camp.

United KingdomAbsolutely nothing!
Everything was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The level of service was impeccable and the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable stay. The lodge was truly incredible, providing the perfect balance of a traditional colonial style and luxury. We were surrounded by so much wildlife from baboons wondering around the campsite to hippos and elephants on the river bank. The food was exceptional, consisting of amazing three course meals every day. Our safari guide Nicholas was an absolute star! He was so experienced and knowledgeable and went to great lengths to make sure we saw as many animals as possible. I couldn’t recommend Hamilton’s any more! We will definitely be returning!

We have been fortunate to have travelled to some beautiful destinations but this one is all by itself! Wish we could give it a 12! Thomas and his staff were over the top. Nick our guide was so knowledgeable and informative. The food was Michelin star quality. The “camp” itself was truly like an old time safari. Our “tent” (massive beautiful room) overlooking the river with elephant, baboon and hippo visitors almost on the deck. The amount and diversity of the animals we saw was an added bonus.

South AfricaFor the pricing .... the food served seriously needs an upgrade. I do not want to eleborate about this on this forum but elsewhere in the Kruger you get 10 times better with half the price. The wine selection was extremely poor and would suggest for the price per person per day they should hire experienced people to do their wine selection. The food menu needs a serious revamp. There is enough food but PRESENTATION is everything with a good glass of wine. This is not a compliant just a serious suggestion. Thank you.
WOW ;- this was one of the best wild nature experiences ever! The location in the middle of the bush was phenomenal. Quiet in the wild .... while surrounded by the big 5 and all the other amazing creatures. Wildlife drives were spectacular. Staff a huge bonus and will go the second mile over and over again to make sure you are spoiled and comfortable. Glamping gets a whole new meaning at Hamilton's. Best vacation ever.
