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...).

United States of AmericaThe shower drain was clogged in our room, which caused the shower to overflow into the room and make a mess. We told someone about it after our first night but it wasn't fixed while we were there.
The staff was super friendly and helpful. The location was convenient to many of the places we wanted to go, esp the CBD and V&A Waterfront. The breakfast was delicious.

United KingdomWhen I checked in I asked if I could have gluten free toast with my breakfast. I was told that they could get gf bread in but indicated that they often bought it and their guests didn't actually eat it. I assured the lady that I would eat it. The next morning I asked for it at breakfast and was told that they only had rye bread. Rye is a gluten so I wasn't able to eat it and no gluten free bread was ever obtained. While everything looks lovely and clean, the bedroom floor was actually quite dirty and out feet were always quite dirty walking around it. While I know that load shedding isn't the hotel's fault it would be really helpful to be told what the scheduled power outage periods are to be able to plan things like blow drying hair and charging phones.
It's a lovely modern boutique hotel that is 10 minutes walk from the Waterfront. The check in staff are lovely and friendly.

United States of AmericaMy room was below the breakfast area so I could hear chairs moving above me starting early, 7 am. Also the kitchen was right next to my room so I heard dishes clattering. It would be helpful to have some soundproofing for this particular room.
The hotel was very clean and the staff was exceptional. Nat and Faye were especially kind and helpful. No request was too big. My flight was cancelled and they booked me a room in their sister property last minute. The location is great and everything is a ten minute Uber ride away. There was a lot of security and I felt safe as a solo female traveler.

South AfricaNote that there are 3-4 parking spots just outside the entrance, if those are full you would have to park on the side of the road- but the area felt quite safe and there are cameras outside.
Excellent stay, I was suspicious when none of the reviews had anything to criticise but the location was good, staff very friendly and the accommodation spacious and clean. The shower in the king bedroom is not separate from the actual bedroom (not a separated bathroom) so just something to note for privacy if you’re not sharing as a couple.

Zest boutique hotel embodies the whole concept of a boutique hotel. From the decor, to the rooms to the staff, to the breakfast , everything is so tailored to satisfy the guests. The staff were really the highlight of my stay there, everyone was so warm and lovely especially the receptionists at the front desk. I would recommend to anyone visiting CPT. and the location is pretty central and safe

United States of AmericaCape Town has rolling blackouts. Made it very difficult to dress in the morning, or read in the evening or be able to use a sleep apnea machine. Of course this isn’t the hotels fault. It’s part of life in South Africa.
Wonderful quality and presentation of breakfast food. Lovely afternoon cake and tea (complimentary). Evening drinks at very decent pricing. Rooms have excellent mattresses and linens. Staff were incredibly helpful! They felt like dear family.
