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.).

FranceBe careful with the Seaview option as we were quite disappointed to find out that our room led on the road and not the sea. The staff still tried to provide us another room that had a better view which was nice of them but we still ended with something different that what we thought we would have.
The room was spacious and the overall place is nicely accommodated with plants etc.. Nice location if you don’t want to stay in a too crowded area (like Sairee beach) where there is more life at night etc… It was calming but still really easy to go the Sairee by scooter or taxi Would definitely recommend upgrading for AC, it was very hot and we regretted it, the fan wasn’t enough

GermanyStaff was rude, we booked a snorkeling trip and one of us got sick the operater told us if we want to change the date or get a refund we have to talk to the hotel where we booked. The guy was not open to talk about it and yelled at me, rather then helping. After that it felt like he was overfriendly to me. Our room did not get cleaned after 4 days. Especially taking out the trash would have been really good since the bathroom smelled really bad.
Right at the beach, room was clean, you can find everything in walking distance, 7/11, doctor, restaurant, massage, scooter rental

IcelandThe restaurant did at that moment (May 2024) only offer half of it's own menu, which was a pity :/
The staff is super friendly, room big and cozy with A/C (even though most of the rooms are fan only, there still are a few with A/C), the location is beautiful next to the beach and with a lot of green plants in between. The restaurant is reasonably priced and offers delicious food. Overall we were very satisfied and would recommend it to anyone :)

SwitzerlandTwo small bottles of water are free every day. There is no place, where you can refill your bottles. Since Koh Tao tries to reduce the amount of plastic used, this seems not to work here.
The room was big enough, where we used the third bed for our clothes. The location was nice, as you are at a quieter place but still close to the center and the resort is directly at the ocean.

GermanyThe Ressort was located right in the south of the island were the best beaches are. If you want to be in the centre of the island, you would have to go for other Ressorts/hostels though. Would save a lot of taxi drives.
The Bungalows were great wir direct access to the beach. Was very calm as well.

SpainThere us quit a lot of traffic passing by, mainly motorbike. Only at night, it stops. I guess it's the same as for al resorts next to the beach
The staff are nice, the location is great, one of the good bays for snorkeling and walking distance to the shark Bay, both known for being visited by turtles and baby sharks. It is very recommended for snorkeling fans. We've been in the high season in February, and it was quiet and peaceful, with no a lot of people on the beach. Food is good and good price. Next to the resort, there is 7/11, exchange, a few restaurants in walking distance, all that you need. We spent 5 days there, and we didn't even rent a bike.

AustraliaIt would have been amazing to have some cushion in the heavy set chairs in balcony. Had a sexual remark from the manager. He receives boundary setting very well and was lovely after that.
I thought the resort was a place that had its day- felt like an old school place with little quirky decorations. Dark wooden panels and heavy chairs. Clear that guests keep returning. Old school feel.

Basic, worth money. Clean, friendly staff. Own small beach but not good at high tide. Many restaurants and massages nearby. Also laundry is easy to find. You need motorbike to get around the island. I guess they rent bicycles but the island is very hilly. Free water bottles every day. Good wifi at restaurant area.
