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...).

Comfortable room & enjoyed the afternoon use of the rooftop pool & bar with those incredible views of Table mt. Great staff, very helpful & friendly. Delicious breakfast and easy walking distance to V&A waterfront. Booked this as our first few nights on a trip to explore the cape and felt well rested from the jet lag after our stay here.

AustraliaThe location was fantastic. An easy walk to the water front and plenty of restaurant choices close by. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. We loved the roof top bar with a great view of Table Mountain. Excellent bar food. We would definitely stay here again. The bed was super comfy, and the room was mostly quiet.

South AfricaWe really missed an early morning coffee with a rusk in the room as we just slept there and had to leave very early due to an early appointment. Please!
We did not have breakfast because we had to leave early (06:30) again, but would love to enjoy a nice breakfast.

DenmarkOur room was a little noisy as it was right next to the stairs to the bar. Also, the windows in our room were screwed shut. This meant it was impossible to ventilate and get some fresh air.
The location is perfect - right in the heart of De Waterkant. The breakfast was superb - there was a full menu with some truly delicious options. The room was nicely decorated and the bathroom included some really nice smelling shampoo and shower gel. The bed was comfy and overall it was a great stay.

NetherlandsMost of it was really very good.
The staff is incredibly nice, flexible and very very helpful. We checked in nay to midnight and the night staff arranged for us to have some bottles of wine after a long flight. The staff had helped us make reservations at restaurants we couldn’t reach and even helped change the reservation later on.
