Agoda.com and the Agoda mobile app are available in 39 languages and supported by 24/7 customer support. Headquartered in Singapore, Agoda is part of Booking Holdings (Nasdaq: BKNG) and employs more than 7,000 staff in 27 markets, dedicated to leveraging best-in-class technology to make travel even easier.
Most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Consumers frequently highlight that the booking process is straightforward, allowing them to easily secure competitive prices for their trips. Many people also appreciate the prompt confirmations, wide accommodation choices, and overall convenience of managing their travel plans in one place.
Some reviewers were not happy with customer service, pointing out major difficulties in reaching human representatives when unexpected issues arise. Additionally, travelers expressed deep frustration regarding lengthy delays, unhelpful AI chat systems, and serious complications when trying to obtain refunds. A few consumers also mentioned encountering unexpected website errors, misleading information, and missing accommodation details upon arrival at properties.
Second issue in a row with these guys, and this time they actually broke UK CONSUMER LAW, and has not addressed it in my complaint so therefore seeing if they react here.
They refused to disclose with whom I booked my accommodation with (3rd Party) It’s a long story and it’s to do with a booking for a hotel in Copenhagen. I will not post booking reference here, for obvious reasons. Nandita at Agoda is the one responsible for this complete and false claim about not being able to tell me.

DO NOT BOOK IN AGODA, WE BOOK THROUGH KLOOK INSTEAD
ALL, I checked AGODA and for every post the have in FB there are unclaimed refunds. Same thing happened to us and its roughly 200usd that havent paid back.
AGODA STAFF IS VERY VERY RUDE AND OUR MONEY WASNT REFUNDED. TO AVOID WASTING MONEY “DO NOT BOOK THROUGH THIS COMPANY”
THIS IS THE REASON WHY WE MOVED ALL OUR BOOKINGS IN KLOOK
This COMPANY IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING
I will make sure that this company gets the review it deserves to avoid gaining more victims. I am highly infuriated ny how disgusting this company steals other people’s money including ours

Misleading Accommodation Listing and Unresolved Deposit
I booked accommodation through Agoda for a 2 nights stay in Manchester, relying on my previous booking experiences and my trust in Agoda as a recognised booking platform.
When we arrived at the address provided in the booking confirmation, we were unable to check in. The management of the Property subsequently confirmed in writing that the development has never offered short-term accommodation. After reviewing CCTV footage and the concierge report, they also confirmed that we had attended the property and were turned away because of the illegitimate booking confirmation.
Before check-in, the host requested a deposit payment directly to them. As I had concerns about the security of the payment, I contacted Agoda's Customer Service team to verify whether it was safe to proceed. I was reassured by Agoda's team and proceeded with the payment based on that confirmation. However, the accommodation turned out to be inaccessible, and despite providing supporting evidence, I have yet to receive a satisfactory resolution from Agoda.
I have provided payment records and independent written evidence from the development management, yet Agoda continues to send repetitive updates stating that it has not received a response from the accommodation partner and that the outcome depends on the property's decision.
How long am I expected to wait? If the accommodation listing is suspected to be fraudulent, why is my complaint being left indefinitely dependent on a response from the accommodation provider?
I booked through Agoda because I trusted its platform. I expected meaningful assistance when something went seriously wrong, not repeated generic emails without a resolution.
As of the date of this review, my deposit issue remains unresolved. I hope Agoda takes this complaint seriously, investigates how this listing was allowed on its platform, and provides a proper resolution.
I would urge other travellers to exercise caution and carefully verify accommodation arrangements, particularly when asked to make separate deposit payments.
Charged Twice After a Declined Payment — Appalling Customer Service
Extremely disappointing experience with Agoda. My wife attempted to book one room at Sunborn London Yacht Hotel. Her first payment was marked as “Declined”, so she paid using another card. However, Agoda charged both cards and generated two bookings, resulting in an unexpected £180 charge.
Customer service was appalling. After lengthy holds, repeated audio issues during calls, and numerous emails, Agoda offered no resolution. Instead, they insisted we obtain written refund authorisation from the hotel, which the hotel could not provide under its policy.
The hotel acknowledged that similar issues with Agoda had occurred before. Despite repeated attempts to resolve this, Agoda has shown no accountability or willingness to help.
Customers should not have to pursue chargebacks or threaten legal action over an apparent payment-processing error.
Unreliable booking system, terrible customer support, and complete lack of accountability. Avoid Agoda!

Nice place - quiet hotel. Staff lovely - food good. A few quirks like random towel distribution and only toilet around the pool is in the reception area. I'd hate to see the place in the busy season!

Agoda is so easy to navigate even when changing a booking. Always competitive pricing often lower than other sites. Would be nice to get personal rewards for using often and loyalty.
Presently Agoda is my favourite site for booking hotels.

My experiences booking through Agoda have always been good. Easy to cancel if for some reason you can’t complete the trip.
