A RECENT Travel Smarts survey conducted by Agoda.com has revealed that Russians are the most generous when giving positive hotel reviews, while travellers from the UAE are the most demanding, often giving the most negative reviews.
Conducted in July 2015, the study analysed over seven million Agoda.com hotel reviews from travellers around the world to see which nationalities tend to rate hotels higher or lower than average.
According to the survey, Russian travellers tend to give hotel scores 0.56 points higher than the global average. Irish, Polish and Egyptian travellers also give notably higher scores.
Travellers from the UAE on the other hand give scores 0.32 points lower than the global average. Omani, Indian and Japanese travellers also give review scores significantly lower than average.
