How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewGreat staff, close to gate for Massai Mara, good value conservancy
It was suffering from water ingress through the outside of the property whilst we stayed, but they were working on repairing the road access as we stayed. I'd have expected it to have been resolved by the time this review is published.

Check in and out process was an absolute disaster, also, they changed me to another room in the middle of my stay; packing up my things without my approval and changing rooms just like that. At the end of the stay, they wanted me to pay more!
Dear Jaime, thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are delighted to hear that you found our staff to be friendly. You checked- in past 10pm and our staff patiently waited and served dinner, and escorted you to the room with no issues but we are sorry to hear that we didn’t meet your expectations. Most of our rooms are in the category of Superiors with a few similarly upgraded to Deluxe Cottages which you had booked, and with late check-in somehow communication didn’t flow to Reception to immediately conduct room move to match your booking. The following day you were out on an excursion whole day and apparently all Superior rooms had been booked with a different group and our team knowing you were anticipating and aware of a room move they went on to transfer your luggage, we apologize for moving your luggage’s perhaps it could have been handled better You had booked a Deluxe Cottage for two nights and we ended up charging only for the services provided and we are glad it was amicable resolved that you were not going to pay anything extra. We have taken note of raised concerns and we will endeavor providing our best quality service as we look forward to hosting you next time

Verified reviewThe Staff is very friendly. We got a very warm welcome and booked a game drive to the Park. The driver was very nice and we had a wonderful day. It is only a few minutes to the entrance of the Masai Mara. The pool is nice with a wonderful view.
The shower and bathroom are very big but the shower was not really good working. Poor water pressure. There is no wardrobe or clothes rail to store things. No possibility to hang up the towels after showering.

Unfortunately Maasai Mara is a kind of super tourist place and the prices are sky rocking. That destroys the value of that place.

Verified reviewProperty is well placed, not much away from the gate. Tents are well spread and maintained. They have a well maintained garden - worth a time spent from the availability stay.
They seem to have some challenges in their restaurant because we didn’t find much varieties in cuisine. For Vegetarians, please try to avoid non-veg items. We were served beef, saying it’s a dish made up of lamb. That’s actually the worst part of it for Hindus who don’t eat beef.

Verified reviewPleasantly surprised with the tent, had running hot water and comfortable bed, for such great value! We watched the Milky Way galaxy in the dark and had great sunsets from the pool. Sadly both of us were unwell, but what we did taste of the food on offer was delicious. All staff are very helpful. The game drives through the Mara were also great and a once in a lifetime experience.
On the game drives, we had a couple of issues with our guide. There was alot of pressure to visit the Masaai village and at no point were we told about entrance fees and other purchases we’d be encouraged to buy. It felt like it was a bit of money making scheme. We absolutely wanted to support the local community but the way in which it was done made us feel uncomfortable. The other issue was at the park gate on our last day where there seemed to be a bit of confusion as to who we were paying our park fee to. Note, if you’re flying in and out of the Mara, you must have receipts for your park fees for all days your there as they will be checked by the rangers as you’re waiting to depart.

Verified reviewThe food was always lovely and the chefs even went out of their way to carter for dietary requirements. Felix is just an amazing host in the restaurant and Nelson was around and swift to help whenever needed.
The front of office wasn't well equipped with information about the Camps operations and the Manager wasn't very helpful when needed.

Verified reviewThe food was not well prepared and the staff were not clean. You will eat there only because you are hungry and there is no access to food outside the camp.
The owner and his son were taking videos and pictures of the guests without their permissions, and when they were notified that this is not professional they laughed and said it is for advertisement. It was very uncomfortable to be followed by a camera all the time
Hello Peter , We had expected your negative review after you threatened to portray our Hotel poorly. You must be honest with yourself and reveal the main reason why you are angry at us. You recently visited our property and engaged two safari guides from a neighboring village to show you around ( not our employees ). You then severally invited them to our restaurant where you instructed our waiters to serve meals to them. When our staff issued you with a bill for the extra meals you have ordered, you ‘ went through the roof ‘ ,angry for being charged for an extra service your friends received on your request ! You claimed that you have been told that the extra lunch for your friends was free. For heaven's sake, where in the world do you travel to hotels to get free lunches ? The food served in our hotel is of high quality and the standards of cleanliness of our staff are above reproach, quite the opposite of what you are claiming. As you try to spoil our hotel to bring it down, you spare no frivolous accusation to complain about photography done at the Hotel. By the way, a hotel is public property and both guests and staff are free to take photos of any events at any time ! How do you think a hotel shares its images for marketing and communication purposes if not through photography and videography? When you chose our property for your stay, didn't you go through the internet and looked at the pictures? Are those pictures not involving other guests and events around the hotel? When did it become a crime for the owner of a property or its staff to take pictures of their own space and place? Why didn't you also complain about the CCTV cameras which are also monitoring all the public spaces of the hotel? Is that not photography too? People visit properties and places on holiday to take photos to share with others and to remember. You claim that you couldn't recommend our hotel to your enemy due to a claim of bad food and service. What made you then stay for 4 nights without demanding a refund and consequently changing hotels if ours was not meeting your expectations? You stayed on because everything was OK with our property ,and the only reason why you decided to malign our name is because you did not want to pay for meals you ordered for your friends who were not residing with us ! How so strange !
