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.).

South AfricaThe only things we could say: A Guest / staff member or contract worker (not sure) was talking very loudly next door for quite some time. Outside Decking needed a bit of work and had some screws sticking out. We totally loved our stay, it was amazing! Over all the villa and stay was exceptional <3
Beautiful and Perfect luxury Villa with wonderful attention to detail. Staff were so helpful and friendly. Communication from the lodge was very good. We would definitely recommend it and return!

South AfricaWe had such a great weekend at iKhaya LamaDube. The unit was magnificant, clean and comfortable. Everything you need is right there. The service from the moment you arrive until you leave is exceptional and personal. We felt like VIPs. You don't even need to leave the lodge. Just stay there and enjoy the surroundings. We look forward to our next visit there.

We loved that it was just outside of Pretoria and close to home. The special touches to detail were not unnoticed and so appreciated. The staff were super friendly and helpful. We loved our stay and will definitely be back to visit and recommend this stay to friends.

South AfricaWe would suggest better lighting when you go down the steps of the unit at night as well as at the boma area.
The location was ideal. Close to Arlington Brewery, The Slide and Veldjie Kiosk eateries. The staff were very friendly, we were received with a welcome drink, hot towels and big smiles. The unit was serviced every day, and firewood placed at the boma area.

We liked everything about iKhaya lamaDube, the tranquility away from the city's chaos was truly refreshing. Upon arrival we were welcomed with cold towels and mimosas and accompanied to our safari tent. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything one may need for a braai, hosting, etc. Very clean facilities with amazingly attentive staff. We loved it.
