How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe hotel is 2-star, nothing more. Having said that I was able to relax and getting around wasn’t a problem. The room was spacious and functional with plenty of natural light. The bed did the job although, I suspect some would find the mattress too hard. The safety deposit box is big enough to secure a laptop and other valuables. The air-con did its job and wasn’t too loud. I can’t really comment on the street noise as I was there during a Buddhist holiday and the bars were shut. The swimming pool is a good size but the seating area is very limited for the potential amount of occupants in the hotel. Plenty of places to eat nearby and a Mini-Big C for other purchases.
There isn’t a bedside lamp or switch to turn on/off the lights. Budget furniture: inadequate for more than one guest at a time. The single white plastic chair and white plastic coffee table were serviceable but I would have preferred something of better quality. The fridge is too small for more than 2 bottles of water. There is only a small fridge in reception for any late-night soft-drinks and no restaurant or cafe at all in the hotel.

Verified reviewLarge rooms with a large balcony and views over Hua Hin. Good location to bars and restaurants in soi 94. It had everything you needed, but everything was getting a bit tired. It is quite a walk to the beach. Staff were very helpful and friendly.
Can be noisy at times from other guests.

Verified reviewThe room was spotlessly clean, with silent and efficient aircon, good water pressure and temp, great bed (though hard) and pillows, exceptionally quiet, beautiful views. The staff was extremely nice and helpful. The location was better than it looked from the map: the hotel's Soi (94) continues straight to a quiet part of the beach (15-20min walk) and Soi 94 to 88 north of railway turned out to be the best night life area in Hua Hin, with a good mixture normal bars, lady bars, large bar complexes like Wonderland (6min walk), locals/Thai nightclubs, and a huge night food/drink market; far better area for a night out than the red-light touristy Soi 80 and Soi Pintabaht.
The room had been partially renovated (new bed, floors, bathroom tiles) and partially not (the most worn out curtains, closet, desk and bathroom door I've seen). The overall style was classic/neutral but then the chair and coffee table were white worn out plastic outdoor furniture and completely out of place. Two clothes hangars. No hand soap.
