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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

QatarWe weren't given a lot of information about the facility by the front desk. We had purchased an all-inclusive package but did not know that there were several restaurants and that we were free to eat there as well. More information should have been provided upon check in. Restaurants were all very dark.
Grounds were lovely. Rooms were clean. Adventurers club was great. The kids enjoyed.

KenyaThe spa is completely under developed. While the staff exists, she is working under a really poorly lit room with no equipment. No resources have been inte ntionally assigned to her. The spa needs to be seriously reconsidered with much more staff, more equipment and way better location.
The staff at reception Candy and Faith, our room cleaner Kigen and the restaurant staff led by Urbanus John, Hellen and Phoebe, were all so warm, friendly and courteous. The assistance from the Adventure club and excitement that came with doing Art, beadwork etc. They all ensured our comfort. They went over their duty to see to it we were happy.

United StatesThey didn't have a massage/spa the first time we went there. But this time they had this option, but tbh, I wish I didn't get that massage. It was one of the weirdest experiences. The lady wasn't very friendly, and after the massage was done she just went away without saying anything so I ended up laying there not knowing what to do. (I think she was also one of the shop owners there.) Other than that, our experience was good. Oh, and one minor gripe. They have a pool but the water is very cold. I don't know why they can't heat it up. Otherwise you can only quickly dip in it and run out to warm up on the sun.
This is our second time coming here. The lodges were nice with an amazing view. Nothing to complain there. Their restaurant was nice with a good selection in their buffet and the staff were going out of their way to insure that we enjoyed our stay.

GermanyOur reservation could not be found (but I had a confirmation) and the staff at the reception was not so customer oriented as it should have been. We've lost more than an hour to discuss the situation and to get a room. That is not the standard I expect, especially not in such an expensive hotel.
Food (evening and breakfast) was nice. Nice rooms in a nice resort.

The hotel rooms are big and spacious, clean with comfortable beds. The breakfast and meals served at the hotel were delicious and mouthwatering. A lot of activities to do at the hotel and is perfect getaway from the hustles and bustles of the city for sports and nature lovers. The hot water bottle to manage the cold was a brilliant idea keep it up.

KenyaWhen we arrived we were told there was no booking made and that only ‘executive rooms’ were available without being told how much this would cost ; unless we had an email confirmation form grvl there was no accommodation for us. Fortunately I had the email and we were given a room that had no wifi or and therefore no working telephone and neither were the security lights outside working. We reported and were told a report had been made to the necessary technicians but nothing was done.After flushing the toilet the cistern would take forever to refill. This sound was not music to the ears as one tried to sleep. The next day We requested for early lunch since check out was 11am and we couldn’t just hang around in the grounds until 1.30pm waiting for it ( since we had paid full board ) and were promised that by 11.30am the lunch would be ready at the reception waiting for us to pick . We ended up waiting until almost 1pm when sealed boxes were handed to us . At the end of our travels tonight we discovered that we were each handed a packet of crisps, small bottle of water, juice, a quarter cheese sandwich , some form of dried cake and 2 pieces of very dry chicken. Not the lunch we envisioned. I Have been a fan of grvl for long having being part of a team that organized quite few conferences / workshops there some years back - sadly I don’t think i will be going back
The location and ambience was super but customer service was sadly not up to per.

United StatesCons: - Water in the swimming pool was somewhat cold. - The reception area needs some improvement. When we pulled up with our luggage, we had to go look for someone to check us in. It is also kinda dark and the heavy plexiglass doesn’t make it look welcoming. And the ladies at the reception weren’t very friendly. - They didn’t have a spa to get a massage.
The Great Rift Valley lodge was great :) There’s nothing else to add. We visited it in Feb of 2022 for the Valentine’s day and I couldn’t have had a better time. See pictures to find out for yourself. Here’s my pros and cons: Pros: - We had a really cool view from our lodge/room. This just beats it all. See the pictures. - The lodge had all the conveniences: fast WiFi, hot walk-in shower, small fridge, coffee/tea and water kettle, mosquito nets. It had no TV, but who needs a TV these days. The WiFi is fast enough for you to watch Netflix or YouTube. - Then the resort itself has a swimming pool, a golf course, two restaurants, bars. - You can also engage in outdoor activities, like animal watching (a “game drive”, I guess what they call it.) See the listing in my pictures. - We chose to ride bicycles. They have nice and safe paved roads around the complex. - There’s a lot of good food offered in their free (included) buffet, or in the Ala-cart menu. The service was great overall. (Except maybe one waiter that was too obsequious.) - It is fairly reasonably priced for the services and amenities provided. - It is not far from Nairobi. Maybe an hour drive by car. We went with an Uber.

Beautiful place with excellent customer care services. However the booking.com should stop charging Kenyans using dollars! The difference is quite huge basing on the fact that the shilling isn’t doing so well against the dollar.
