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 reviewThe breakfast had a special touch of 'warm welcome' with a nice home-prepared jam, whole-wheat bread, fruits, and yoghurt, which already put visitors in the calm, natural spirit and atmosphere of Cilaos. The names of the rooms which reflect the natural beauty of Reunion: Piton des Neiges,... written on the table were like a special customised invitation.
An access to a microwave would have been nice for eventual heating up of dishes for dinner.

Verified reviewVery clean, great aesthetics, bed mattress and pillows were comfy. Hair dryer available. Onsite parking available. Great wifi.
Our room had a connecting room upstairs. Walls are thin and conversations can be heard clearly through the walls. Room could use a fan as it was quite warm at night even with the window open. Perhaps the comforter was abit too thick.

Verified reviewThe location was magic , when you wake up there you feel like you're in a movie, the room was very clean and neat and the staff were very nice
we asked for a late checkout several months before going there without having an answer and the day we went there they only told us it was not possible , leaving us with desperate to find another solution to get some sleep before our big event. Being more reactive even if it was a negative answer would have help us to have a solution earlier during the year

Verified reviewThe location in Cilaos is perfect there is parking inside the premises Breakfast was very nice with good coffee baguette yogurt fruit and croissants
First - when we arrived after a long day we found a notice on the door requesting to call for assistance. We called but nobody answered so we left a message on the voice mail. The lady only came 15 minutes later to check us in. During the check in we re requested to deposit our passport or 550Euros in case something is damaged or stolen from the room. I have never encountered such a request. we were then asked to sign an inventory list of everything in the room, and when we left someone was sent to check that no pillow cases disappeared... this doesnt give a very friendly feeling the room itself looks relatively new and has a great potential, but missing very basic things for example glasses for drinking or even a toilet paper holder (maybe they are afraid that it will get lost...)

Verified reviewGreat trailer in the middle of the center of Cilaos, perfect for going around the town as well as a good place to start hiking. Very nice personnel that explained everything very well and were very welcoming. The trailer was a great deal for the money, with basic amenities, hot water and good wifi.
It's not the newest trailer and the walls are thin, but it's still good for the price.

Verified reviewBedroom comfy. Nice view. Clean. Close to L60 bus stop. The staff helped to make some calls for me as I couldn't connect to the french telephone system. Close to the centre through a nice shortcut. Can use the main kitchen which is fully equipped.
I was asked to leave a cheque in case something is broken or stolen! Quite unusual for me who travelled lightly and visited quite a few locations. I was the only person in the whole premises which was a little weird and scary being new to the place.

Verified reviewWe got a welcome from the guy which was ok. An effort was made to give us breakfast under terrace
Breakfast was just ok. However location was not at all to expection. Dirty with spider webs, no towels as per description, no amenities. False pictures. Explanation was that booking.com directed us towards the poorly crafted place. Cheers
