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.).

Howard met us upon arrival to hand over the keys and walk us through our cottages. The cottages are very comfortable, spacious and very well appointed; perfect for self-catering. The property has beautiful views over Prince Albert and is a short drive away for the main road and restaurants. This wasn't our first stay at the Karoo View Cottages and it won't be the last!

South AfricaA little noisy throughout the night that was disappointing, sounded like a generator somewhere . Perimeter fence is not yet covered by growing plants and is very visible at close proximity with a fairly busy road right on boundary. A little too far from town for older folk to walk.
Beautiful rooms with thought to detail. Perfect for winter or summer - outdoor patio and braai facilities, swimming pool, fabulous star-gazing hot pool, inside fire for fabulous winter evenings. Kitchen well kitted out Fabulous!

United KingdomIt was hard to find fault with this property. It was well equipped, I couldnt find a kettle, but other than that there was nothing to dislike.
What a lovely place! The room was superb, the staff very friendly and a great location and view. All for a resonable price given the quality of the property.

United StatesWifi signal prevented us from doing some of our work. The signal was great but limitations on speeds made it challenging (especially with multiple guests on it). The manager did come over and let us know they were working on it, so we appreciated that gesture, but it did not get any better during our short stay.
We stayed for two nights in cottage 4. Huge accommodation that was spacious, clean, and very well equipped. The view was amazing! Also- we loved Cheyenne, the property dog!

United KingdomThis was an exceptionally well equipped property. We enjoyed the large room, with plenty of space to move around. It was lovely to have breakfast on our outdoor space. We were very happy that our breakfast supplies (and port) were generously topped up every day by Greg. The bathroom had a great shower and the large bed was very comfortable. It was a great stay. We got a good tip of where to dine and loved it. Prince Albert itself is a beautiful small town with great places to eat and plenty of interest both historically and pottering around the gallery and shops.
