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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

United KingdomSolar pannels were being installed on the roof during our visit - which had we known about - we would have planned our day differently as it was very noisy - but - that was a one off, so not worth making a fuss about.
The location - was just breathtaking !!! More than we could have hoped for !!! The room was beautiful, comfortable and had everything we could need, the patio off the room was gorgeous and the whole feeling of the guest house was just perfect !

United Arab EmiratesEverything was great. Only thing if I had to say, last time we booked the same type of room and paid the same price but this time our room was much smaller and we were a little sad to not have the larger room with more space. Ours was a little cramped with 2 big suitcases out. (We stayed in 5 last time and this time room 6).
Our second time staying at Cape Vue - we couldn’t wait to visit again and it didn’t disappoint. Gorgeous breakfast each morning with lots of selection. The most stunning views, well kept pool and pool area. So relaxing and stunning to sit out and relax. 10/10 comfort of the bed - we remembered this well from last time. Comfiest bed/pillows in the world! Hosts very welcoming and friendly. Gorgeous selection of high-end body wash, lotion, shampoo etc. All natural and smell amazing! Super close (literally a 5 min walk) to the main town where all the restaurants and shops are.

United KingdomNothing. However, the hotel is located a short walk (give mins) outside of the main town. This didn't bother us and in fact it was nice to be more in the countryside, but if you have mobility issues it might be a consideration.
Tasteful and smart building, lovely gardens, wonderful staff. Comfy bed. Relaxed environment.

Everything about Cape Vue Country House was great! The property is within 5 mins walk of the main high street and about 15-20 mins walk to the wine tram station. The staff were all so friendly and helpful and the cooked breakfasts were delicious! it's the perfect place to explore Franschhoek and the wine regions from, and also to relax and make the most of the lounge area and stunning pool.

South AfricaHonestly, I am hard pressed to find anything that was unsatisfactory. It was all wonderful.
The attention to detail was outstanding. Quality bedlinen, comfortable mattress and soft feather pillows. We had the most restful night sleep which is the highest praise I can give since I usually struggle to sleep without my own pillow from home when travelling. The fluffiest quality bath towels and bath sheets in the bathroom, and beautiful cotton bathrobes and my favourite africology bathproducts in the bathroom made me feel like I was in a spa! Quality finishes everywhere - bath fittings, wallpaper, furniture, carpeting, window treatments. A spacious shower with a generous shower head spray and thoughtful extras such as a non-slip mat, shower caps, extra vanity essentials, homemade biscuits, nespresso machine, a selection of Twinings teas, generous sized mugs, fresh milk, complimentary wine and water. All these extras and attention to detail made the stay feel absolutely luxurious. The views were stunning and the garden is beautifully maintained. Breakfasts were outstanding and the staff were all very welcoming and friendly. We will definitely be back again! Thank you!
