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...).

CanadaI thoroughly enjoyed my time and stay at Elephant View camp!! I stayed for two nights in the wonderful glamping tent! It was very clean, lots of space, and thoughtfulness to small details such as a night light beside the bed, a chair beside the window and a hand towel in the bathroom. I appreciated the snacks and water left for me. The private pool was clean and refreshing and it was spectacular to be in the pool or in the chairs beside the pool and watch elephants stroll by. Morning sunrise listening to the gibbons was marvellous! My day trip with Best to the national park was a highlight! All the staff and the owners were very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast very tasty! . I would definitely recommend a stay here !

United KingdomNothing not to like. However if your looking for a lively location this may not be the place for you. Suited us perfectly for some relaxation. We stayed 3 nights, this allowed a visit to the Wfft a short walk away and a day chilling in own private pool watching the elephant and bird life. I would say stay 2 nights minimum, not sure 1 would be worthwhile to get maximum use of the area.
The location was amazing, tents were very private and the elephants passing by each day was fantastic. Lovely greeting from Best, who was very knowledgeable about the elephants. He was also extremely helpful with organising a taxi for us as we arrived from the night train Hua Hin. We greatly appreciated how accommodating he was in allowing us into out tent earlier than the check in time, after a fairly sleepless night in the train. Also took advice from Best and stayed in Ampwawa at the end of our trip, without his knowledge we would have missed this beautiful location. Service was amazing, drinks bought to tent and food was excellent. Everything was really well prepared, breakfast was amazing too.

SwitzerlandThere was absolutely nothing we didn’t like
Our experience at Elephant View Camp was simply breathtaking. The view was spectacular, and the encounters with the animals were magical. The staff and owners were exceptional in every way – from start to finish, the service was personal, professional, and effortless "feeling like home". A special highlight was our day in the national park with the manager, “Best.” His guidance was informative, warm, and engaging – we couldn’t have imagined anyone better. The food at the restaurant was incredibly delicious and homemade. The two staff members were extremely friendly and helpful, making the whole experience even more perfect.

ItalyNothing, all was great. The only recommendation is to bring some earplugs, as all the animals in the sanctuary get a bit lousy during the night...but it is all part of the experience after all!
Great location in the middle of the local Wildlife Sanctuary. The right mix of "glamping" and sustainable tourism, a few kilometers from Hua Hin and the Kaeng Krachan national park. The staff is also great, highly recommended.

DenmarkWe did not se elefants outside, apparently they come mornings around 10, we had to leave 10am for the tour checking out 9.45 indstead of 11 which was bit stress. Thought it was more in the middle of the “park” than at the edge. 7 years ago, we visited same elefant refuge but thier cottage belonging in the middle of everything. This place is still better than the cottage of the refuge. Also We misubderstood thinking we could be showed around upon arrivel, did not understand glambing is its own buisness. So knowing this, i recommend min.2days to fully enjoy.
Really cool tent, good qualitt, very clean and cozy nice out door bath toilet. Nice pool. Good breakfast, Very nice staff and owners. Calm sourondings. Everything was so nice, despite misunderstandning about tour and placement of Clambing tent, I would absolutely recommend already recommend for friends and Will come back, but at least 2days.

Recently spent two amazing nights here. Warm welcome on arrival from Best. Glamping tent was amazing so comfortable and clean,with every thing you need. Best was fantastic the other staff were also very good.. The food was outstanding, I also received a homemade birthday cake during my stay. To sit outside your tent with the elephants so close,was the best birthday present ever. Nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend elephant view camp and a two night minimum stay is a must.

ThailandIt was a bit difficult to find at first. Google maps sent us down the wrong road at first. Ended up in the middle of nowhere ( though it was a little adventure :). If the road "feels" wrong, then you are probably on your way to the middle of nowhere :). Go back and take the next street...about 30m further.
wow! Beautiful location in nature. Quiet. Surrounded only chirping bird and ....monkey sounds :). It was great to see the animals there in an open space and being well taken care of. Got to see many Elephants close up ( No touching or feeding ). The hosts / owners were very friendly and helpful as well. Next time I am in HuaHin, I will be staying there again.
