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.).

South AfricaAn outstanding destination near Solitaire. Upmarket, yet unpretentious. Efficient and friendly staff who go out of their way to make guests feel welcome and cared for. Superb catering and delicious food. I recommend Solitaire Mountain Lodge without hesitation.

United KingdomThe room has a long passive-aggresive list of house rules, which was hidden on a side table and not referred to in the introductory tour. There are fines for eating in your room or laundry done in the room, presumably including even rinsing out quick dry outdoor clothing. It was unwelcoming and seemed excessive. The room was big, but only had a small double bed with no headboard. We'd booked a twin, and when we mentioned that we may have been given the wrong room we were told it was correct. The shower drained very slowly and filled up whilst using it.
Staff were all very welcoming and attentive. The property is beautifully landscaped and had wonderful views of the surrounding countryside. Rooms were spacious and has a nice outdoor veranda. The outdoor bar and seating area were comfortable. Dinner options were varied and enjoyable. Breakfast had a reasonable selection. Unlike many similar places, there was WiFi in common areas and rooms. Overall great for a day or two.

United StatesWe were looking for a stop between Sossusvlei and Swakupmond and this is the place to be. Real cute town, excellent apple pipe and guaranteed to see Cheetas in the nearby reserve. The lodge is beautifully decorated and the staff very friendly and helpfull. They helped us to book for the sand dune trip at Sand Harbour, so this was all arranged when we arrived their the next day. Stargazing at night is amazing.

GermanyThe lodge is conveniently located near Solitaire and served as our starting point for exploring Sossusvlei. It’s truly a beautiful oasis in the middle of the savannah, where the boundary between the wild and the lodge grounds practically disappears. The design of both the accommodations and the entire property is very authentic. Dinners and breakfasts were exceptionally delicious, and the staff was attentive and welcoming.
