Thailand’s recovering accommodation sector has received immensely positive community feedback, according to a recent TripAdvisor ratings study.

The average review rating of Thailand’s hotels and B&Bs was as high as it has ever been at 4.12 out of a possible 5, above the global average of 4.01.

Thailand was also recognised as providing the cleanest accommodation, with a rating of 4.24 out of a possible 5, toppling Asia-Pacific competitors Indonesia (4.22), Australia (4.16), India (4.09) and Malaysia (3.95).

Thai hotels and B&Bs garnered similar average ratings, 4.09 and 4.10 respectively.

“One recent challenge Thailand’s hospitality industry has faced is the flooding that occurred last year. As we see from the TripAdvisor ratings study, Thailand’s hotels and B&Bs have bounced back and many are exceeding their guests’ expectations,” TripAdvisor for Business commercial director Lewis Ng said.

Floods ravaged Thailand late last year, causing infrastructural damage and massive revenue reductions.

“Thailand is a beautiful and resilient country with so much to offer to travellers,” Tourism Authority of Thailand Governor Suraphon Svetasreni said.

“We are honoured that the TripAdvisor community has given Thai properties such positive ratings - some of the highest in the world.”
