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.).

Fantastic view and beautiful lodge. Attention to detail was very impressive. Breakfast was delicious and staff were very friendly. There was an option to pay extra for air con however the two fans provided were quite sufficient. Will definitely be coming back to stay at Hillhouse!

United KingdomWe loved everything, only wish we could have stayed longer.
The accommodation itself is beautiful, with amazing views over the bay and lots of rhinoceros hornbills in the trees. But the family who run the Hill house are the best part. They are so warm, welcoming and helpful. The food at breakfast is lovely and the family now also have a restaurant called bay view where you can get dinner which is delicious.

United KingdomI think there's only 2 negative points to mention. One was that the toilet was a bit weird, as the shower was not separated from the rest of the toilet so the whole floor became wet after showering. The other point is that the doors to the "house" had some spaces between the walls, so bugs could come in and out during day and night. Gladly the bed had a mosquito net, but it's something to consider improving in the future!
This was one of the best hotels we stayed, getting the real Thailand experience. It had amazing views, it was very quiet and it was quite unique as you felt you were almost glamping! The staff was really kind and helped us every day which made the experience even more special. They helped us to organise boat trips, rental bikes and itineraries and were always there to help with a smile. I highly recommend for anyone staying in Koh Yao Noi! (and if you're staying in another island, consider coming here ;D)

United StatesWhat a special place! We planned to stay on Koh Yao Noi for two nights and the Hill House but decided to extend our stay to four nights as we loved the island and Hill House so much. Don and family were extremely welcoming, kind, and helpful highlighting unique places to visit on the island. Breakfast is amazing with sticky rice and mango every morning and you get to choose what kind of seasonal smoothie you would like and eggs or Thai pancake. We chose to stay in a room with fam and had no trouble without AC, we were even slightly chilly one night! The bungalows are absolutely gorgeous with amazing views and well maintained. You can tell there is a lot of love put in to everything at the Hill House. Don’t miss out on taking an island hoping tour with Don. He took us to remote places to snorkel and we even saw monkeys! His boat is very quiet and comfortable. We were sad to leave the Hill House and hope to return one day! Could not recommend kk enough.

United StatesDon was the best! He helped us with every aspect of our trip from bike rental, boat tour, and the taxi and ferry back to Phuket. We loved the breakfast and the nearby restaurant. The room was so comfortable, we did opt for the AC due to the heat.

AustraliaNot really major but a blanket on the bed instead of just a sheet and a large towel would have been great.
Absolutely perfect place. Close on scooter to everything you could need. The view is obviously the best part of the stay but the room itself is perfect too. You can pay an extra $20 AUD for aircon but with two fans in the room it wasn’t needed.

GermanyThere were no ACs in the rooms, only Fans, which made it a bit hot at night and the shower was kind of just a showerhead facing the toilet.
The location was incredibly beautiful, the views breathtaking. The staff were friendly and the hotel was so close to the beach and a lot of nice restaurants. The room itself was lovely and really clean.

United StatesHillhouse was a dream come true. The staff were excellent and made our stay as fun and comfortable as possible. They often checked in with us and made accommodations to suit our plans. The location had a fantastic view, including a hammock facing the sunrise over the ocean. The room met all of our needs and the AC was well worth the extra fee. Breakfast was delicious and the scooter rentals available made getting around both easy and fun. Mr. Don was a wonderful guide and took us out on his boat to see the surrounding islands, this was the highlight of our trip!

United StatesEverything at Hillhouse was wonderful. No complaints!
I loved getting mango and sticky rice and a fresh fruit smoothie with breakfast every morning. The eggs were nice, too. The staff were so kind and helpful. Don took us out in his power boat for a little island hopping (we highly recommend getting a very early start to beat the crowds!), and we also rented scooters from him for the week. I spent a LOT of time on the porch, reading in the hammock and enjoying the sea view. So many hornbills flew past our porch, and the sounds of gibbons, birds, and frogs filled the air; it was magical! Island Yoga is right down the hill, and we enjoyed the sunrise tai-chi and a couple yoga classes. There's a great restaurant just a short walk away. The food was so delicious, we went there every night!

Everything was perfect ! Hard to find a better place to stay in... the view is incredible. There is no proximity with the other bungalows so you feel completely alone surrounded by the nature (many calaos during sunset).. The breakfast was one of the best we had in Thailand including a fresh smoothie made every morning. And the bungalows are really clean and comfortable Welcome to paradise! + of course, the family owning the place is truly lovely!

CyprusThe bungalows are up the hill, so be ready to climb to reach your room (yet that’s the price to pay for the beautiful view). AC is not included in the booking.com rate, and you can purchase it for 500 baht per day, which we found quite expensive.
Loved the simplicity of this accommodation, yet comfort and incredible views!! The bungalows have everything you need, and the most incredible balcony and views over the bay and vegetation. You will love waking up with the birds sounds and to that sunrise!! Don, the owner, and his family are lovely. We also enjoyed very much the boat trip with him!
