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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

AustraliaI feel for the owner's who have a grand hotel but hardly any guests. They have to invest in the property in respect to a complete makeover and ongoing maintenance.
Rather not say.

FinlandResort is old and everything is bit off. Cleanings could be better in the public areas. Older lady who runs breakfast were bit rude. Breakfast wasn't really worth it. Beds isnt very good. You can feel springs pointing your back while sleeping. But you get what you pay for, price is cheap in that area. Beach near the hotel ain't very good.
Room is huge. Pool is great and large. It has been luxurious place back in the days.

United KingdomOkay so it’s obvious this place hasn’t recovered well from Covid - it’s in need of a revamp and a lot of the areas which make it appealing aren’t open. Such as swim up bar etc. no lighting in common areas like lobby and in general need of TLC. Our room was fine and only there for 2 ‘nights so not much of an issue. Not enough sun loungers round the pool.
You can tell the property was once rather luxurious! Our room was clean and nice. Pool area was large. Overall a nice stay. Could be something special with a few tweaks. Bathroom good, both shower and bath. Working fridge and nice balcony, room was huge.

United KingdomWe agree with the general reviews about this hotel and went in not expecting much. You get what you pay for and in many ways the hotel was good. Only real sticking point for us was the room temperature. We knew the air con only went to 25C and had practiced at a previous hotel and found it fine. However I think other air cons overshoot the temperature and this one definitely doesn’t. Shame facilities such as the bar in the pool are not in operation. Our bathroom was not fully cleaned when we went in.
This is a beautiful property. Huge rooms. Large pool area. Our room had a separate living area and patio leading directly down to the pool. Perfect location close to the gorgeous long sandy beach of Ao Nang Much cheaper than a typical hotel of this type so you can’t expect a true 5* experience. Our room looked recently decorated and lovely (although on closer inspection a few bits had missed the paint brush)

United KingdomGrounds were not well maintained and toilet blocked. Mainly sad because it will take a lot of work to restore it and people who have paid very little to stay there are not kind or thankful to staff.
William, Thank you for looking after us. Your hotel is beautiful and we hope that you are able to recover after the impact of COVID. We can see there is lots of work to be done and that the staff are trying hard to keep up. We are sorry to see some people treat staff badly or shout. You have been helpful and kind. The handmade craftsmanship is incredible and it must be such a challenge to keep up with all the maintenance. We hope over time things will improve and that you can return the Palace to its former glory. Good hot water and air conditioning. Good response to requests for housekeeping and towels. The children enjoyed the swim up pool to the spacious hotel room. We did not eat at the hotel because so much available along the beach front. Location good and next to the tranquil National Park and beach. For the price, it is an excellent base to explore Krabi, the markets and the islands, without the sleazy bits of Ao Nang.

NorwayThey give a free coconut drink to guest who give them top rating on booking.com which of course is not good for the reliability of customer feedback. We paid a bit under 1000 THB/night and for that price we are happy. HOwever, if you are paying what they claim is the full price (which was substantially higher when I checked) then you are likely to be very upset with the quality you are getting.
The architecture is a bit wacky. The pool area looks amazing in pictures but in reality everything was closes and it all felt a bit, well.. abandoned.

IndiaHotel was not maintained well. Almost every room had a one or other issue. My rooms had ac water leakage problem and door lock was broken. There was no security as no one will be there to assist after 8 p.m. no security no reception. It will be like a haunted place. Breakfast was at the cost of 200 THB per person per day but it was not worth at all. You can get so many better options outside.

United KingdomWhen we started to look closer at things, it was clear the place overall was in need of repairs and painting. But the facilities themselves were still okay to use. The only disappointment was a very dirty floor towel in the bathroom that should have been binned. And never placed in a room in the first place. We mentioned this and a day later they were removed from the room. There was an air con leak, but it was fixed once mentioned. Another thing to mention was that they use two bedsheets instead of a duvet cover, so you do see the duvet itself (and any potential stains). I'd recommend getting proper duvet covers. I'd also recommend having a repair man check the rooms and everything in them. It would make things much better. Again. Could be much worse. I'm not complaining at all, just mentioning this so they know what to improve.
We loved the place itself, it was grand and luxurious looking at first glance. The room was spacious and the pool was huge! The staff is kind and polite, very helpful. And caring, they checked in several days into our trip. I can't complain too much, the staff made this stay better than it would have been otherwise. When we mentioned what was wrong, they fixed/resolved the issues.
