Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomNothing.
We loved our holiday at the Sylvan. The location was perfect for us. It is on a very pretty, quiet beach with easy access to nearby shops and restaurants. We did have our own car so getting about was easy. The staff were all wonderful and made sure our stay was very relaxing. We would absolutely recommend staying here and look forward to coming back one day.

United KingdomSome family stayed in the accommodation near the top pool & they felt the accommodation was a bit dated, didn’t provide conditioner in the bathroom or the body lotion that was in the accommodation at the beach.
Friendly but discreet staff. Beautiful location & facilities. Both pools are good, the beach pool has a lovely shallow area for young children. Accessible beach, shallow water but able to float & snorkel. Restaurants were both great with plenty of choice for food. Beach side room was really lovely. Spa day was great. Location close to village with great restaurants.

ThailandThe property decor feels a bit mismatched between the newly renovated rooms and older sections. The property itself is very large and hilly so you must get around by buggy. Many options at breakfast but food was just okay.
We had a nice and restful stay at Sylvan. We stayed in the newer room, which was comfortable. Staff were friendly.

FranceIt’s a bit hustle with the up and down the hill between the room to access the beach and facilities next to the beach. But there were options to facilitate the guests.

One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at - ever! The room was very spacious, very clean and well maintained, massive balcony with a sea view, great buffet with breakfast, swimming pools were clean, the beach was amazing… and the Rainforest Spa! We took a 3 hour treatment and it was absolutely amazing. Would definitely stay again

NetherlandsIf I really have to share one thing to improve, very very minor - it would be great to have a small children’s playground between the swimming pool and the restaurant on the beach :-)
The views were stunning. The combination of 2 pools and the sea were amazing. Also plenty of shade throughout the park.

AustraliaOn or second night we were eating in the restaurant on the beach my wife and sons food came out mine was nearly a. Hour later. So I refused to pay for it. Then at checkout they try to charge me $70 for a bottle of wine from the mini bar that I didn’t drink. They said the label was missing. You don’t expect that to happen in a 5* hotel when you’re paying $600 dollars a nights
It was a great location right on the beach. The staff were very helpful.

United KingdomSome of the stuff (cleaning) didn’t speak English. The food at the restaurant can be very spicy, so you need to specify if you want it less spicy. The dinner was very good, so we never went elsewhere to eat.
Very spacious comfortable quiet room with a fantastic view to the beach. Loved to be able to swim in the clean and quiet sea, also there are two very nice swimming pools for adults and kids. The beach is clean and shady. The breakfast is good and you can go there by a golf car or a funicular which is fun. The view from the breakfast room is amazing! Also, we appreciate that we were allowed a later check out for free. Massage was also very good! We enjoyed our stay so much that we dint leave the resort for the whole of our stay.

RussiaDisclaimer: all notes here are really minor. So, the road to Koh Chang is long and tiredsome - be prepeared. The hotel is not new - you can see old-fasioned tiles in bathroom - though they keep it up pretty well. To me, the style of massage is not really top-notch. And they want your credit card to see at the lobby, which could be a trouble if you used to pay through G-Pay like me.
The hotel is perfect for the family vacation - they have rather big rooms, some children activities. The beach is very slow going into water, and there is no currents, so it's very safe for children. Breakfasts are really awesome - even picky child can find some food for self. We were there during a jellyfish period in Thailand, and we didn't see any single one at that corner of ocean.

ThailandOne issue was related to internet. Our roaming (AIS) was not receiving in some parts of the hotel including our rooms (beach side rooms). Therefore we were dependent on facility wifi. It was OK but you need to enter your passwords several times during the day. Bit annoying at times.
Very nice hotel. Beautiful nature, beach, view. Staff were very positive, helpful and friendly. We were very happy.

SwitzerlandGoing to breakfast can be a bit annoying. The first day feels like an adventure and is fun because you have to take a small cable car. Alternatively you can call the reception and a golf cart will bring you to breakfast. The view from the breakfast place is beautiful tough so worth it.
It feels very private and peaceful. The hotel is located directly on the beach, the spa is a bit pricey but the quality of service is excellent and the massages are top tier. The food at the restaurant was excellent. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly. I suggest staying on the beachfront rooms or vila if possible.
