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 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 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.).

We stayed for one night only on the way to Railay so it was a short trip. But everything we needed for that night was there for us.

Germanybreakfast could have been available a bit longer than 10 am. But it seems to be standard in Thai hotels. Breakfast was really good 👍🏼
Nice pool, directly at the sea front! very clean facilities. Service is excellent, Staff is super friendly and helpful (in contrast to many other hotels in Krabi, according to my experience) The location Ao Nam Mao is very quiet in comparison to Ao Nang, however Ao Nang is only 15 min by car/taxi :)

IrelandThe only thing I didn't like was the day I had to leave. I will definitely stay here again if I'm back in the area.
The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. They made us feel welcome and they were very accommodating. The location is good if you want to avoid a busy tourist area and its quiet in the evening so you can get a good sleep. The beach is beautiful for walking. There was a scooter rental shop next door and we rented 2 scooters for the time we were there which enabled us to explore the area by ourselves.

CanadaThere is no beach nearby where you can lie down and relax. There were only four chairs in the swimming pool for all the guests. Transportaion to major cities was extremely expensive. Taxis will charge ridiculous amounts of money.
The hotel was in a quiet zone away from the madness in the city. Ideal for people who want to disconnect from the city noise. It was clean and comfy.

ItalyCons: not near Ao Nang, you have to get a taxi or rent a scooter. We had a problem in our room, water was dripping from barroom ceiling (probably a pipe was broken), it wasn’t possible to change the room the exact day. The problem was somehow fixed; we would have like some discount since we didn’t change the room (such as offering minibar consumption since we had to pay our room on arrival), but that didn’t happens unfortunately.
Pro: Great hotel with an amazing pool just in front of the sea, room with fantastic view and amazing breakfast. Location is next to Aonammao harbour where is possible to grab a long tail boat to Railey.

AustraliaProbably the best place I have stayed in Thailand. The hotel has an amazing pool and is located right on a beach, within walking distance to the dock that will take you to Railey Beach. The staff were incredibly lovely, checking us in early as they could tell we were exhausted. Our bed was so comfy and the bathroom was perfect. It was such a beautiful hotel with incredible staff and they helped us find tours, boats and transport whenever we needed.

United StatesI arranged pick-up from the Krabi airport with the hotel and received several confirmation messages. However, when the time arrived no one ever came to the airport (waited for an hour) and I could not reach anyone at the hotel. I had to get a taxi and the driver kept trying to get me to pay more. It was honestly a little bit scary because he was pretending to be lost at times and it was late in the evening. I ended up just paying him what he was asking in order for him to not drop me off in a random location. It really just kind of ruined that first night experience. When I arrived at the hotel I informed the front desk about no one arriving she apologized and took pictures of the confirmation messages. Even though she apologized there was no offer to make the situation right. Not a free breakfast or a room upgrade or some sort of compensation.
The staff was helpful with booking activities and a scooter. Despite the location of the property being a little far from everything it was cheap and fun to ride a scooter around and make the 15min commute.
