Reviews and Complaints

I had such a horrible experience with booking.com this past vacation that I would def not be booking with them ever again!

We drove 16 hours to our destination with 3 kids just to get there and find out that booking OVERBOOKED us.

I tried calling and they said I should start the process of relocating. So I did. This was around 8:30 pm….at MIDNIGHT I had nothing! No one would do anything, all the representatives from out of USA, WOULD DO NOTHING! Jjust tell me to wait for the email with a list of properties for me to choose from. Its been 7 days I did not get that email!

By midnight I was driving around looking for hotels ON MY OWN because of a booking.com mistake! I finally found one but it ended up costing double what I had pay to booking.com

This ruined out first day, our kids were miserable after a long day driving, our budget the trip was ruined and booking.com DON’T EVEN CARE! They will never see my money again…..

I made a booking as early as April 23 on the Booking.com platform and was dully sent the confirmation thereof, after enquiring with the property I was informed that the property could not confirm the booking as it seemed that their (booking.com) platform was used fraudulently to list an existing property, therefore the real property had no record.

My real frustration is that booking.com is stringing me along making all kinds of promises (it’s being investigated, I will accomdated etc)

It’s now 3 Dec and no response from them.

Pathetic service in resolving problems.

I booked an apartment named Hyde Residences in Pattaya, Thailand through Booking dot com

The advert said wifi is free of charge yet upon arrival we was advised it was basic wifi only and we had to pay additional fees of around 400 baht per week to upgrade.

After checking the apartment policies these additional fees were not mentioned anywhere.

We decided that we felt we could not trust this apartment and so we found somewhere else and left.

They refused for some time to give us our deposit back (we did eventually get that back) however to date we still lost £281 for the two week stay which we didn’t proceed with.

We have exhausted with booking com as we either get generic messages or they say the terms and conditions mean we don’t get our money back.

Technically the terms and conditions I feel have been breached as we were mis sold a property.

I don’t think I’ll be using them ever again not that they care.

J'ai réservé une voiture (C4 grand picasso) via Booking.com à LIsbonne.

J'ai payé pour cela 245.93 € 197.28 de location + 48.65 d'assurance complémentaire) à Booking. Lorsque nous avons pris la voiture à la coompagnie OK Mobility à Lisbonne, il m'a fallu payer 451.95 € (ok premium cover, fuel charge, etc). Je pensais avoir payé la location.

D'autre part nous avons eu une Dacia Logdy à la place d'une C4 Gran Picasso Citroen et enfin la caution de 200 € a été débitée.

They have stopped responding to my messages about a booking which had incorrect information, but which was only available after making a non-refundable payment.

Cascina cattabreghetta claims to have a shuttle service from milan airport - but that costs more than the room! Night of 5 to 6 dec 2023 booked sept 2023.

I have messaged customer service multiple times, who tell me to contact the property, which I did via booking.com, and have not received a reply.

And customer service reply to each of my messages in the app saying someone will reply within 24 hours - which has not happened since sept 30!

I am student from University of Westminster and I had booked the round trip flight from London(AI162) to India

(AI887) on 29th Nov and 5th Dec 2023 respectively. The purpose of coming was to appear for an exam however it got reschedule and in this situation I had to cancel my tickets. My Airline reference no is RRH5R9 and I was cancelling the ticket within 24 hours of booking the ticket, still 15000 INR was getting deducted. As per policy if the tickets are cancelled before 24 hours of booking full amount will be given and I am very disappointed with the customer handling service.

My family arrived at a rental location I booked on booking.com (routes car rental) when we arrived at the counter was greeted by the rudest agent in the world. She stated that they don't rent to local residents in which was not disclosed in my contract that has been confirmed. This ruined my family mini vacation in which we had to cancel. There is no one to contact they also charged my credit card for insurance services that I did not receive. This should be illegal. This is a form of discrimination.

We booked a hotel stay in Santorini, Greece back in September 9, 2023, and we thought we booked with free cancellation before Sept 27, two weeks before check-in. Two days later we cancelled the reservation, but we found out that the confirmation was non refundable. We lost over US $1334. We contacted Booking.com customer service and it was not help at all. We think the website was cliched or not reliable and what the result from their website.

We attached the screenshot file that was similar when we booked the rooms.

Now we don't recommend anyone to book any travels through Booking.com and you can check other website like, Expedia, Kayak or direct from the hotels since the price at Booking.com was not cheaper than other sites mentioned. Other website might be easier to deal with customer service.

host beware. don't use booking. They straight up lie and don't care. they tell you to setup direct deposit then there is no direct deposit. you have to accept cash at booking which it doesn't tell you that on the site. who can be at your house every check in. like everywhere now.

government that condones bad behavior. criminals know this rent your house destroy it then leave. thanks book.com The people at booking.com no clue total different stories but all agreed that this is scam. they didn't agree because the website should be shut down until fixed. The call desk didn't even try to fix they just agree its a scam. first time for everything.

Hello, I booked at this apartment on booking.com for 30 September 2023 upon arrival the place had no electricity and the pictures of the place where totally different place was smelling everything was very dirty could not sleep phoned host no answer and phoned bookin.com they took complaint upto now when I phone them for my refund they tell me host has not come back to them I want my refund as we ended up looking for another place to sleep which was now very expensive. I have realised everyone who has booked there has never slept in that place the advertised property is not the one physical and the property is disgusting I feel booking.com is letting this host get away with fraud/scam as they still let people book under that host have a look at the reviews
