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.).

AustraliaThere was construction happening on site as part of their expansion works, which was noisy every day from 8:30am or so, which disrupted my sleep! I know I was unlucky with my timing, but something to be aware of.
Spacious room, shower and bathroom were nice, bed was comfy. Balcony was nice too, but my view was somewhat obstructed by a tree, which other rooms wouldn't experience. Free breakfast was nice too!

SpainThe electric house close to it made it not pleasant to be out of the terrace which is a pity.
Everyone was súper friendly, organised us transfer. The room was nice with a great terrace BUT the electric house close to the hotel made it not so enjoyable to be outside. The location is good if you are looking to be out of the touristy side but close enough to walk. Laundry service & really nice breakfast with several options to choose from.

United KingdomUnfortunately we couldn't sleep that well as the walls are quite thin and could hear the neighbouring rooms and the rooms upstairs, there was also a very cute but noisy pack of dogs that bark most nights for a few hours and they are right on the road by the hotel. They also have construction at the hotel going on from as early as 8am so after not sleeping much through the night there is no chance of a little nap or peace during the day.
Very friendly and lovely staff. The room was spacious and clean and had alot of storage for our clothes. Lovely view of the sunset from the balcony. The breakfast was very good and there was lots of options to choose from. Pancakes, omelettes, toast, fruit etc. The location was great as it was very close to Sairee and a couple of minutes drive to Smile Mart & 7/11.

GermanyThere are currently construction works happening as they make the place a bit bigger. Still, they try to minimize the noise. Once, the owner even let the works stop during daytime so I could have a quiet day. I didn’t even asked for it 🥰🙏🏽
This is my second stay at this house (coming back to Koh Tao for 10 years now) and I would stay there again all the time! The rooms are very nice and the view is also beautiful. The outstanding (!!) friendliness of the owners and staff made the stay even better ☺️

United KingdomThere was a strange loud noise across the road, we were used to it after the first night but wasn’t sure what it was. Nothing to do with Life Koh Tao :)
Great room for the money, the bed and pillows were super comfortable and we had a great view. It’s about a 15min walk to the Sairee beach area we found this perfect! The staff were also so helpful with organising transport to the port when we were leaving.

IrelandPre arrival communication was very poor. Got delayed coming and let them know - no response. Contacted them about pick up from pier, they said they'd send someone but taxi never arrived. Also the hotel is undergoing some construction, it is very loud and starts at 7am. Keep this in mind if you're not an early bird!
Comfy beds, spacious room, good aircon, free water refill. Good breakfast, laundry service, really friendly staff. What more do you need? Location is good, about 10 minutes walk uphill from the main part of town but it is a nice quiet area near a gym, supermarket and some restaurants only a 3 min walk away
