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...).

United KingdomVery small but aircon was on full blast but still very hot at night, apart from that it was absolutely fantastic.
It was a beautiful central location - The room was spacious, clean & quiet. Had a fridge which was a great touch and bed was extremely comfortable. The rooftop was an amazing addition to the accommodation, we sat with a glass of wine watching the sun go down, surprisingly very peaceful given how central it is! William was fantastic too.

NetherlandsThe size of the room on the back of the appartment, was a bit small and the road at the back can be noisy when sleeping in that room. The building next door is being renovated. Expect serious noice after 8 AM. We were not that bothered since we woke up early to explore beautiful Cape Town.
Place is perfectly located in a nice, safe, centrally located neighbourhood. Quiet area with some nice shops and restaurants on walking distance. The appartment was nicely decorated, clean and complete. Secured parking at the back of the hotel.The staff was very helpful and friendly! The rooftop terrace with plunge pool and table mountain view is fantastic.

GermanyWilly is the best host ever - he helped us to organize some trips and called whenever and wherever we needed information from. The breakfast was awesome! I loved the croissants! When we came back from our day of hiking and sightseeing there was always a little chocolate on our bed which made my day :) The area was safe and it was only a 20 minute walk to the waterfront. The rooftop area with the pool has a great view and we just loved relaxing there. Thanks for everything - we would always recommend staying here!
