Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

South AfricaThere was an unfortunate incident whereby we had purchased a bottle of wine off site but required a corkscrew bottle opener. We called reception for one and was referred to the restaurant on site. We were told by Reception that the Restaurant would assist us and we could even sit outside and have our wine. All good, so family and I decide to go downstairs and decided to grab dinner at the restaurant whilst there. When we got the Restaurant (around 8.15pm), we were met by some extremely upset staff. We asked if its ok, recounted our phone call to Reception. The response was, "We don't do that here but Reception said so, there is nothing we can do." The waitress proceeded to open the wine whilst the manager stormed off to Reception. I offered to pay corkage, hoping to just leave this behind.. but no. I was refused. By 9.30pm (Restaurant closes at 10!), no one had so much as come up to us to even take a food order.. all the while, the Manager is walking up and down, screaming at staff about our wine, pointing to us etc. Very unprofessional to say the least! I eventually flag down a waitress, explain the events to her and she agrees to assist us with an order. The order comes, and its wrong to what I have ordered. I go up to her and explain this and her response was shocking!! She pulled up the order as per the room number, and shows me the name from the menu and the order is the same. She then tells me, "I am not stupid, I captured your order correctly!" To which my response was, I did not call you stupid, I am basically saying as per my order I should have received Chicken Strips, Jalapeno Poppers, Chips and Boerewors. I received, Pork Ribs, Pork Bangers (I don't eat pork), chips and chicken wings. Basically the kitchen had given me the incorrect order. Still stood there for about 5min whilst waiting for the Manager to fold cutlery in the napkins before she instructed the waitress to collect the basket and bring me the right order.
Prime location!! The canal is next to the hotel, so if you bought the City Sightseeing Canal Tour, you could get to and from the V&A waterfront for the day! Coffee in the rooms is lovely. Rooms are spacious and comfortable
