Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

ChileBeautiful property, the rooms are enormous, excellent service. They prepared a delicious local vegan dinner for us 🤤. I love that it's a female-owned and black-owned business. More business like this should be supported.

South AfricaWe had booked two rooms, but because of renovations in the hotel complex, they upgraded us to occupy an entire 5-bedroom house ("The Residence", actually a different property next door, under the same management). Very spacious, with a huge balcony with a bit of a view of the Chobe River. Every morning, they brought breakfast up to the balcony for us! They also served us dinner (which we only had once at the property) in the dining room in "our" house. Activities (boat cruise, trip to Victoria Falls, game drive) were organized very diligently, at a very reasonable price.

Very beautiful guest house in Kazungula/Kasane. We booked a lot of activities with the structure at good prices (6h safari and boat safari, pick up at the structure). The room was very large, likes a suite! There Is a wonderful garden to relax. Boa was a very helpful host; She can arrange also short transfer to Kasane for lunch or other needs. For breakfast you have yogurth with fruit or muesli; in addition there Is a hot meal with bacon, eggs, toast...for dinner you can choose among 7/8 choises. Moreover Very good price!

United KingdomI was told by Booking.com that a transfer to the airport was included in the room price. However, this was not understood by the staff, so the driver had to take me to an ATM to get the cash to pay him for the ride. This was a little embarrasing and caused a little delay. Booking.com maybe should make it clear to the hotel staff what they have told the customer is included in the price.
For a very reasonable price, I had a suite of rooms larger than my apartment back home! All facilities were in good working order. Tea and coffee making facilities provided as well as complimentary bottles of mineral water. The breakfast was excellent. The hotel has extensive gardens attracting many birds. The staff, especially Ms Lelantle, and the cook [whose name I don't remember] were friendly and helpful.

BotswanaThere are few suggestions which the hotel can consider: 1. there is no telephone in the room and the staffs wont be around during the night time. So incase of any emergency its difficult to contact anyone 2. We couldnt find reception/office at the lodge. 3.Everytime we need the assistance we have to go and see the chef who will be there till 8pm. 4. There are no enough lightings for the lawn. On the first night there were lanterns kept in few places and rest of the nights the whole area was too dark.
We really enjoyed the stay at sunbirds and will recommend to others. The staffs are providing good service to the guests. The garden/lawn pool etc are well maintained

BotswanaCockroaches Very limited breakfast, which wasn’t satisfying - I left hungry No staff after 5pm at the premises; only a security guard. Additionally no number is given for emergencies (no phones in the rooms) There seemed to have been confusion over the fee chargeable, which led to delays over our checking in as the owner had to be called for confirmation No proper kitchen in the rooms (i get the sense that these are meant to be self catering)
Modern facilities Very spacious and clean rooms Very nice gardens Pleasant staff

You will have your breakfast with an amazing view by the swimming pool. As this is outside Kasane it is very quiet and relaxing, the perfect place to wind down.
