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 AfricaI would have preferred a more flavored breakfast i.e. I am used to adding herbs and spices when making eggs, mushrooms etc.
1. Location is perfect and gives you ability to: - Walk by the beach front - Walk to the city center 2. Safe location: - Walking at night was not an issue 3. Rooms size: - Room was for a family but still it's very spacious - Nicely furnished with all amenities

What a beautiful property, in a beautiful location right opposite the beach. We had a fabulous welcome, nothing was too much trouble, and the room was outstanding. The sunbeds outside our room on the terrace was just what we needed when we arrived after a long flight.

We had such a lovely two night stay at The Manor. Highlights were the welcome from our hosts which was exceptional, the views from the outside terrace and the enormous, comfortable beds. The air con (which we only needed for a short while in the night), was the quietest unit on our stay and the room was large and comfortable. We had superb breakfasts each day in a lovely part of the house, again overlooking the small bay. The room was beautifully decorated with high quality furnishings. We walked into the village, a safe, easy walk on a footpath by the beach and had a fantastic meal at Zest, so much so that we returned the next night. We also visited the book shop, huge place to get lost in and a great little bar next to the book shop. Very friendly locals. We then drove down the coast to Betty's Bay, a stunning drive, to see the penguins and visited Harry Porter Botanical Gardens which was absolutely lovely. We would definitely return, thank you.
