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 reviewWe had such a lovely stay, the staff were extremely helpful and the food at the restaurant was amazing. I’ve deducted a point for the restaurant closing at 4pm. We would have eaten here regularly if it was open in the evening for dinner. The room is incredibly spacious and the bathroom is of good condition. I have deducted another point because our bed was extremely firm, however the staff provided us mattress toppers to make this more comfortable. Overall we had a really pleasant stay.
Thank you for your nice feedback. We will improve everything and hope to welcome you next time very soon. Khobkhun krub

Room curtains are not sun block so in the morning i had too much light in the room since 6 am . Tv is very old model (but works so ok)
Dear Federico, Thank you for choosing Serenity Lakeside Boutique Resort. We are happy to hear your wonderful feedback about the resort. So sorry for your inconvenient about the curtains, we noted down about black out curtains and old TV, that we might enhance and replace for the near future. Thank you. Hope to see you again at the resort. Best, Serenity Management

Verified reviewThe name says it all! It is a very serene and quiet location – it is next to a picturesque little lake – and it is a resort (rather than simply a hotel) with enough facilities that you can happily spend all day here. The room was a good size, clean and modern with a great shower and my only regrets are that I didn’t check in earlier in the day to enjoy some pool time and that I didn’t stay longer. Although it is set back from the main road it is still possible to walk to the convenience store and some eateries. The hotel staff were all very friendly and courteous and when I returned after a late night the receptionist found me a safe parking space. Considering that it is still peak season I found the price very fair.
For privacy I would rather have a private balcony rather than a shared patio, but that was a minor complaint and not all of the rooms are like that.
Dear Ralph, Thank you for choosing Serenity Lakeside Boutique Resort! And thank you for sharing your wonderful feedback during your stay. Till your next vacation again in Phuket, please let us know us know so we can arrange your room in Bungalow with balcony-we noted down. Best, Serenity Management

Verified reviewSerenity is the right name for this place we had a river view bungalow with big balcony, very nice. The pool area is good. Garden nice and well kept. Service in reception fine. They had a pool jazz friday evening which we attended and was nice.
Cause this place is so out of everything and nothing in walking distance, they should offer some food in the evening also - not only breakfast and lunch it is not enough. I would rate this place better if the service and food offers were better :)

Verified reviewScenery within the resort is amazing, the pool is nice and not busy. We mostly had the pool to ourselves
Restaurant menu is limited and servings are small. Lunch stops at 4pm and the restaurant is not open for dinner. Unless you want to brave the hygiene standards of the local market or street stalls the only hygienic restaurant within walking distance is KFC. We were there on NYE and fireworks directly outside of our room at midnight woke my children up with a fright.

Verified reviewVery good location. Stunning view on the lake from the room and from the pool too which is amazing. Far from the traffic. It is the best spot if you're looking to relax a bit and enjoy nature. I'll definitely go back there if I come back to Thailand. Very clean and the staff were very kind and attentive to everything. 10/10 Definitely recommended.
