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.).

SlovakiaSolitaire has perfect location. Probably the best in the region for visiting Sossusvlei/Deadvlei within 1 hour (to the gate) for very reasonable price (lodges nearby Sesriem are quite expensive for us). The place is stylish with big rooms, hot water, wifi and beautiful cactus garden with fresh swimming pool in the middle. Bonus is the gas station at the gate of lodge, but the peace of cake is the best apple pie from local bakery (opens very early in the morning). The pie is a must! Restaurant has pretty good choice of meals for dinner, breakfast is very good standard.

EstoniaThe room was a bit dark, the light was needed during the day time. But perhaps it is for reason.
Spacious room with large comfy beds. Territory and facilities are clean, beatiful and relaxing. Good breakfast and amaxing apple pie in the bakery next door.

South AfricaWe had a fantastic experience at Solitaire Lodge during our overnight stay. The rooms were exceptional and cozy, and the freshly prepared breakfast packed to go was a delightful touch. The restaurant's delicious food and top-notch cookies added to the overall satisfaction. We're definitely planning to stay there again in the future.

United StatesThe property is much nicer than it looks from the road: the rooms are very nice, the landscaping is fabulous, and the staff is friendly and efficient. We really enjoyed the pool and the meals (dinner and breakfast). While the location is a bit more remote from the Sossusvlei park gate, it is considerably more affordable than those nearer the park. Before dinner, we had a chance to take a tour of the Cheetah Sanctuary. About 60-90 min long, the tour got us close to the five cheetahs (siblings orphaned relatively young). While petting the animals is not an option (at least for those of us who lived to write reviews), the tour gets close to the cats and is very informative. The cats are used to visitors, but still wild. Watching them from 10 feet away, from the safety of the safari vehicle, but with no obstacles in between is awesome.

It is a wonderful place in the middle of the desert. Great staff, nice room, good food. Everything is there, bar / restaurant, petrol station, tyre repairs, shop, swimming pool.

The staff welcome, we were given a nice refreshing cold drink, which was just what we needed. We hadn't come far on the C19 road, but it was good to get here. The room was great, 2 double beds, shower was excellent. It had a good swimming pool. The dinner and breakfast were excellent. We had some of the famous apple pie, it was very good. The WiFi was available all over the site even in the area where the vintage cars, etc, were displayed. I must admit I was pleasantly surprised at how great the site itself was. On our way to Swakopmund, so more travelling on the C19 tomorrow, I'm not looking forward to that 😕
