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.).

AustraliaThe main side of the resort (hotel room side) could use some upgrading around the grounds- fair amount of wear and tear around pool (loose boards and cracked tiles) and beach umbrellas were really stained and tattered, and pool lounges are pretty worn down plastic too. however the villa side is gorgeous and much better maintained so we weren’t affected!
beautiful beach, lovely and very helpful staff. complimentary buggy service between reception and villa side of the resort. complimentary upgrade to pool bill from garden villa (thankyou!). Karkinos serves some of the best Italian food we’ve ever had!

Switzerland- prices for bikes, surf boards etc were very high compared to other places in Thailand. We managed to rent a motor bike from another place for a fraction of the price. - Far away from the town, so you need a bike, shuttle, ... to explore the town
- Excellent breakfast - Nice beach and beautiful area for long walks at the beach (not so interesting for snorkeling though) - We discovered an excellent authentic Thai restaurant (where the locals go) a few kms away and had the best dinner there - We enjoyed the views from the pool and the beach.

Hong KongTwo things. 1. I’m not sure if their accounting system does not work properly. A few times we asked for our account statement and every time there was something on that was not supposed to be there. For example: one time 5 nights accommodation were added even though all nights were paid for the day we arrived. Later on the transport fee from the airport to the hotel was added a second time even though we already paid it on the day we arrived. so just double check your account in case there are items that should not be there to avoid double payment. The employees immediately fixed the mistakes when found so they were efficient. 2. The hotel is quite far from Khao lak centre. there is a shuttle bus available during the day, but the last bus is at 5:30. If you want to go to the night market you will have to get a TukTuk at around 400 Baht.
lovely property. Clean. lovely swimming pools and right by a nice beach. also just a few minutes walk to the elephant home. All employees were very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The restaurants in the property are amazing. Probably one of the best pizzas I have ever had. there are only one or two other restaurants nearby so selection is a bit slim if you want to try a different restaurant each time. Then you will have to make your way to Khao Lak centre which takes around 20 minutes drive each way.

Australiaone reason why we went there was the surf break but a) there was almost no waves (check the season) and b) renting the surfboards was quite expensive, just like almost everything in the resort we had a pool hills but the water was so full of chlorine that it was almost unusable.
beachfront, pools, although it was 80% booked it didn’t feel crowded

We love the Apsara it is our second visit and will definitely not be our last. Love the quietness of the area, yes remote but suits us perfectly and there are taxis and tut tus outside hotel to take you wherever you want. Staff are beautiful and so willing to help and take care of you. Beach is beautiful and hotel is on the beach. Food is delicious and lots of it.

GermanyThe only unpleasant situation was that we found a tiny piece of plastic in the lasagna. Nothing major but not nice! You need a car or hire private driver services if you wanna visit something nearby.The beach itself is very nice but very shallow. Good for kids!
Everything was better than expected. Staff is very polite and helpful. The dinners were just amazing. The options of buffet plus different beverages ( different processador of course) is really great. We were there for almost a week and each day they had something special (seafood and meat bbq, Pad Thai, Mongolian food). Breakfast was also really nice with loads of variety. Pools were amzing, Massage was great for a very affordable price. They offered entertainment in the evenings with Thai typical dances, pyrotechnic shows. Good to see a place with that standard that do not offer overpriced services/food/beverages! Excellent job! 👏

AustriaThe restaurants and all activities are very pricey. The vibe of the Italian beach bar is awesome but prices are like back home.
The sea is flat and perfect for (small) children. The beach is beautiful. Main pool is nice and open till 7, that allows you to enjoy the beautiful sunsets from the pool. The pool itself needs more attention. The room is clean, big and nice. The glass front to the bathroom a bit weird. King size bed is comfortable. Cleaning staff does a good job! The elephant home is in walking distance.
