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.).

The hotel is in a peaceful location a little away from the centre. It’s nicely designed with comfortable rooms. The shower was great. There was a lovely lounge just outside my room, which was perfect for some work I had to do. I chose the hotel partly for its super fast broadband & it didn’t disappoint. The roof terrace is a lovely place to hang out, with great views of Lake Victoria. The staff were superb, couldn’t do enough to help. I’d happily stay again when in Entebbe.

UgandaA quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. The view while having breakfast on the rooftop terrace overlooking the lake, the Afro-centric interior design and exceptional customer service were my key highlights.

IrelandI can’t really find any faults with it. It is a relatively short distance off the main road in a serene location but it is really easy to get to and from, with the right directions.
I liked the quiet and peaceful location overlooking Lake Victoria. The bedroom was big and comfortable, with some nice modern design touches. It had a huge bathroom with an awesome rain shower. There is a rooftop bar with an amazing lake view which is very cool. The staff were always attentive when I needed something as well.

South AfricaMy single room could had been a bit more spacious. Dinner could could have been prepared faster, but if you order an hour ahead you are likely to be happy with your meal.
The breakfast was good, and the staff very attentative and friendly. A very quiet area with a good view from the roof. Perhaps a little off the beaten path, but not far from the airport. Transport was provided as promised. The room and especially the bathroom was beautiful and had a private balcony. However, my single room was quite crammed, but perhaps the double rooms are bigger. I had dinner with friends at the hotel, and while the food was delicious the food took quite a while to get prepared.

AustraliaIt would be nice to have some indoor games for rainy days.
The staff was exceptional from pre-arrival to after the departure they made sure we didnt want for anything. They were also knowledgable and also very resourceful and kept us well fed and entertained. The airport transfer is thoughtful and a great way to kickoff the trip after a long flight.

I loved my stay and the staff was very welcoming and made me feel relaxed. They were communicative and provided a free airport shuttle. The supervisor Liz and Susan also helped me get a boda motor bike taxi to Victoria Mall which was about a five minute ride away. The hot towels and fresh fruit juice on arrival were a pleasant surprise. The interior decor is exquisite African and the breakfast was yummy. I also ordered for a whole fish which took about 40 mins to prepare, which was ok for me. I was in a single room. If I was staying for more than a night, I’d probably have gone for a double. It’s very clean and with lovely lake views. Not far from the airport.

RussiaDo not book! Grace, the director of the hotel (she also works at the reception), is inadequate and aggressive. 100 dollars per day is a very high cost for Entebbe , with a very low quality of services . when I went there, I had a cold and wanted to rest for a few days , which I warned at the reception. The next morning, I woke up to the loud sounds of repair work . When I left the room to the balcony (which belongs to the room), there were a lot of workers downstairs and one of them was climbing the stairs.( photo attached below ) . Very bad toxic smell in the room ( perhaps they Insect disinfection ) . After I moved out of there, my reservation was deleted and indicated that I had not stayed there. It was necessary to contact the support service in order to restore the reservation. I've been in 18 African countries, it's the worst hotel on the continent

The staff, driver and breakfast were all absolutely EXCELLENT! They had beautiful smiles were ready happy and able to help with anything and they made me feel so special! Breakfast in the roof was such a treat. Just really enjoyed my first stop from arriving from Entebbe airport I also want to note that my flight was seriously delayed and my driver waited HOURS for me and was still the happiest guy in the world ! Just awesome

South AfricaThe location is quite remote and far from pinned location at Okra House. I would not have booked this place had I known/looked at the exact location via the address. No amenities close by. The uber drivers struggled with location. No signage or directions. My bathroom flooded into the room everyday and I had to wipe it with the towels.
Great view of the lake from the roof of the building. My room had no view. Madam Grace, Elizabeth and Esther were amazing and made my stay pleasant. Greeted with a warm towel and fresh juice on arrival. Was invited to the inauguration dinner which was great. Wishing you all the success. Mosquito net was definitely a winner. The place is new with teething issues which will hopefully be resolved soon.

NigeriaI enjoyed my stay at Nimaro courts so much that I decided to stay there for my entire time in Uganda. It's close to the airport, the staff are very well welcoming and attended to my every need, the facility is clean and what I loved most was the peace and quiet in the area. Coming from all the chaos of the outside cities and neighboring countries, it's a breath of fresh air. Oh and they also have a rooftop you can pretty much sit and enjoy a beautiful view of Lake Victoria. Highly recommended!
