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.).

United KingdomNo criticism of the stay at all. But I would recommend arriving before sunset, we arrived late, it’s a dirt road to the rooms, nothing visible beyond the headlights. Beautiful by day!
Gorgeous setting, tranquil, very comfortable rooms and Inge is a lovely host. The breakfast in the lodge was exceptional. Makes a perfect getaway.

NetherlandsWe stayed in Ikwanitsha on our way to Addo national park. This a former farm converted into a little peace of paradise: four lodges nested on the edge of the cliff offering a breathtaking view over the ravine and mountains; a herd of zebras on the ground, bushbucks and occasional impalas roaming the property; peace, serenity and privacy. Could you want for more?

United KingdomIt was very remote up a very long dirt track but was well worth it.
Just amazing. Unbeatable views and delicious food. Ingrid and the other ladies who work there were lovely and the chalet was comfy and had everything we needed, it was really nicely decorated too. It felt very quiet and private. Good location for Addo elephant park and other private game reserves.

United KingdomOnly a microwave in the kitchen may somewhat be limited for those guests who may want to bring their own food. Perhaps worth considering a small/single hob and an oven/microwave combi be added.
The location is truly amazing and unique. Perfect for full relaxation and reconnecting with nature. Only 4 chalets, with a lot of privacy.

GermanyNothing to complain about! The complaints here about the access road are greatly exaggerated. The road is very easy to drive on, even with "normal" vehicles. Most annoying is the last part of the (official!) road in the villagedue to numerous potholes, but thats only a few meter.
Extremly friendly hosts & staff, beautiful and calm located lodge, very nice and comfy chalets, good location for Addo/Schotia! -Wir kommen wieder:-)

Ingrid gave us a very warm welcome and was already communicating with us via WhatsApp ahead of the trip (esp for accurate directions). The lodge itself is beautiful! There’s only 4 of them which makes it quite special and they all have a balcony towards the mountains with a stunning view! The property is off the beaten track but absolutely worth the drive to get there.

SwitzerlandFor some, the accommodation might be a little too remote. There are not many opportunities to eat out. However, breakfast and dinner at the lodge are delicious.
The highlight was the tranquillity and nature of the accommodation. It is also very beautiful, stylish and cozy. We immediately felt at home. Ingrid is a brilliant hostess and gives good advice. She is very friendly and helpful. Both breakfast and dinner are delicious. Even though the access road to the lodge is a bit long, you can easily reach activities such as Addo and Schotia Safari.
