Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their 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 arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise 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 else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
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, and 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 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 may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United StatesThe restaurant was nice, but had limited choice of Lao dishes.
The manager and staff made us feel welcomed and taken care of. The hotel definitely deserves a 4 star rating. The pool was nice and had a good view of the river. It is definitely worth staying there for two nights to break up the trip to Luang Prabang.

IrelandThe hotel is situated on some very very very steep slopes. Getting up and down to the main building was a bit of a haul. You can call the little bus to pick you up but to use the restaurant or other facilities. There were also a lot if steps, not always with handrails so if you have difficulty walking be advised.
The view of the Mekong was spectacular at dawn. Nice rooms, clean and comfortable. Restaurant was adequate.

CanadaShower temperature was hard to control and there was a bad smell coming from the drains in the bathroom. Both easily fixed, I suspect, so these are probably temporary problems that would not be experienced in all rooms.
Excellent staff. Great restaurant and fantastic breakfast. Room was very large and comfortable with fabulous views over the Mekong River. Outdoor space adjacent to room also offered great views over the valley below.

PolandThe location is quite far from the town, so going exploring or looking for a restaurant other than the hotel one is a little bit of a hassle.
Amazing hotel, the rooms are just amazing. And the views are nothing short of spectacular. We were greeted with flowers floating on our little pool/jacuzzi and in the bathtub.

SwitzerlandEverything! This Hotel is a gem in this remote village! Stay more than one night so you can fully enjoy the Pool and soak up the beautiful nature around the Hotel. It's not just a Hotel, there's much more behind the scenes. Read about the Hotel on their website. I had an inspiring conversation with the owner, Mr. Ket , who is a great person. I absolutely recommend this beautiful place!

AustraliaNot a problem for us but the hotel is on multiple levels which could be a problem for people with mobility issues.
Spectacular views over the Mekong River. Rooms are big and comfortable. We dined at the restaurant which was also very good. Unfortunately we only booked for one night as we were doing the slow boat cruise from Luang Prabang, I would recommend staying longer. The staff were very good in picking us up and dropping us back at the boat.
