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.).

DenmarkFood was a big let down, and the reason for my down-rating. I came to Namibia to experience everything Namibian but the food overall was bad, apart from one night with grill. The night with grill was really great. Each night offered a five course meal. The food was without taste, not local or authentic. To say the least it was disappointing! Breakfast is as breakfast will be with limited options but dinner was bad!
The property was in Beautiful & tranquil setting.The swimmingpool was perfectly situated with exceptional view of the landscape. Perfect opportunity to connect with nature and relax. The overall design of the property and location fitted the surrounding Nature. The concept and design was perfect. It all matched well. I had a great stay. The tours/excursions available at the property are great. I did all of them. They were beautiful and worth it. A must do for all. I spent many days there, and I had a great time.

SwedenNo wifi in the rooms, only around the restaurant and reception area, but that was not a big issue.
Excellent staff. Eriksson and Kai most helpful and service minded and with outstanding knowledge about birds and animals. We saw a lot of wildlife from our patio: oryx, wildebeest, springbook, jackal and many different kind of birds. Dinners in the evening under the stars. Food was very good.

AustriaVery few lodges have a view like Naukluft Lodge. It is located about 45 minutes from Sossusvlei, right by the Naukluft Mountains, precisely on the border between the Hardap and Khomas regions. The panorama and tranquility are overwhelming. From the terrace of each room, you can gaze across the vast savannah and a striking mountain backdrop on the distant horizon. Sometimes in the evening, a large herd of wildebeest comes right in front of the lodge to drink from the water. Oryx are scattered in the wide steppe grass. The lodge is very well-equipped. The brick bungalows are comfortable and stand out for the breathtaking view from the private terrace. A small pool with a shaded seating area provides cooling. The breakfast buffet is rich and sufficient, and the dinner is an excellent 4-course menu. The lodge offers shaded parking spaces for vehicles. The staff is extraordinarily friendly and attentive. We spent two nights here, and I will definitely come back.

GermanyWe had a family room which was ok, but we thought it would need some renovation i.e. could be more modern and comfortable for the price.
The lodge is in a very nice location next to a small rocky hill looking into the beautiful dessert countryside. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful with all questions. The served menu was delicious and it was also possible to order it in a vegetarian version.

United KingdomThe setting of this property is outstanding, beautiful sunset and sunrise, views of a waterhole and the plain with different animals. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The manager gave us some great advice about activities to do and pointed out lots of different animals/birds to us. There are walking trails around the property too. The food was great and all included with the room which was extremely reasonable. Highly recommend this property, we stayed as a stopover on our way to the Dune 45 wished we had had time for one more night here😊

South KoreaStopped for the night on our way to Swakopmund. Room was nice and big for a family of 4. Excellent wifi and water pressure which is a huge plus for such an isolated place. Food at the lodge is also very good. From our verandar we were able to see animals roaming the plains and wildebeests drinking from the waterhole. Sunset rock on the property is also a nice spot to see the surrounding area and makes for great pics and viewing. The best part about the property is the way the staff treat and care for you during the stay. Only regret about this lodge is that we only stayed for a night.

BelgiumRooms and swimming pool are getting old and we missed atmosphere. Breakfast was very simple. Worst we’ve made a half board reservation paid upfront. Unfortunately for the owner half board means only breakfast, and he asked us to pay for the dinner again which was a very unpleasant experience since this lodge was already pretty expensive price-quality in comparison with other places we stayed. In the end he said that he will pay for the dinner himself and left us with a bad feeling.
The location is very beautiful. The dinner was one of the best we had in Namibia.

United Arab EmiratesWifi and electricity kept cutting out with no provisions to make guests more comfortable (I.e no warning that the generator would be switched off at 11pm, could not charge devices, no torches or candles handed out.) A bit expensive for a place that had no electricity, wifi or aircon half the time I was there.
Beautiful scenery. Very friendly and helpful staff. Lovely quiet location and enjoyed the hiking and birds.
