Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 KingdomFor a hotel of Raffles reputation and the price being paid, the service levels are not as attentive or proactive as they should be. However, the food quality and choices are very good and the breakfast was amazing.
The accommodation is spacious and the views amazing. Slightly dangerous steps in the bedroom though. All staff are very friendly and super helpful.

QatarThere are no water activities. There should be more activities available on the island. If you want to snorkel you have to pay extra which doesn’t make sense. Also even if you have half board they usually have an extra charge for themed dinner nights. The boat trips to the other islands are overpriced. Also, the pools need to be heated because it is too cold to swim in the morning we have to wait till after 12 for it to be warmer.
It is very quiet and remote good for 3-4 days. The staff are amazing and very friendly and welcoming. We had an extra late check out which was amazing and it was an overall very positive experience.

CanadaThat our stay was short
Since entering the hotel at the reception it was a good experience. The views are super amazing, it is a large resort and scenery views are everywhere. The staff were very nice, especially Andy the buggy driver. The room was exceptional, we really liked the facilities that covers all your needs and we enjoyed the private pool. The beach is amazing, calm waves and crystal clear water with beautiful scenery. We had a romantic dinner at the Pan-Asian restaurant where our waiter mohammed provided excellent service and was very kind.

QatarAt the moment there are no direct flight to Praslin Island where Rafelles hotel resides. Therefore, a pre arrangement must be made to reach the the island. Which was a bit difficult with me as it was raining heavly.
The staff were amazing, smiling faces all around. The establishment itself was equally impressive with all type of basic necessities that any tourists can think of such as a gym, a spa, a kids club...etc. The different type of cuisine every night made my stay even more unique. The Tandoori night, the Sushi Room, and The Arabic food all gave me a refreshing experience of what quality food can be. Furthermore, you can visit all the designsted locations within the facility with only one text to the reception and they will send a buggy within few minutes to pick you up and deliver you wherever you would like.
