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.).

AustraliaI had a cold shower, but thinking today I might not have turn the water heater on. Plus bad drainage in the bathroom.
This was a good location for me to do my visa run to Lao. The room was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was ok. Staff were help full. When I arrived I had booked one night, then paid for 2 nights as I didn’t know how long it would take to do my visa run. But as it turn out I was back at the hotel by 10am so decided to move on. And to the hotel staff credit they offer to pay back the money I had paid for the extra night. And I was happy for them to keep the money.

United KingdomThe toilet flush didn’t work at all so we had to use a bucket and water and the bathroom wasn’t the cleanest.
We only stayed overnight to do a boarder run to extend our Visas, so we went for the cheapest option. Beds were really comfortable and the room itself was really clean. Staff were friendly and helpful.

United StatesThere is a disco below and it was so loud I could not sleep. Just as loud as being there. Disappointing no hot water maker in the room for coffee or tea. Bathroom was not very clean. No hot water for shower.
I needed a room for the night. Got just a room, nothing special.

United KingdomUnfortunately we were overcharged for the room and informed that we had not made a booking via booking.com despite providing the booking reference number and screenshot of the booking confirmation. On check in we attempted to explain to the receptionist that we had tried to change our booking dates on booking.com twice but had no contact from the hotel, & perhaps this was why the booking was not coming up on their system. We were not given an option to choose a room and were given the most expensive ‘VIP’ room on check in. We were unaware of this until checking out however.
The receptionist was very friendly & welcoming despite having limited English. The hotel took our motorbike into the hotel at night as per their safety policy which was very helpful.

United KingdomIt’s an overpriced dump that pretends to be fancy. The area is dodgy, the AC barely works, the bathroom is dirty. The ladies working there are INCREDIBLY rude. I was extremely shocked to find out that they don’t even offer ONE complimentary bottle of water. It makes you think that it’s free and then they charge you. Even the worst place in Vietnam offers at least one small bottle. Charging this much money for a dump like this and not even offering guest one bottle is an absolute joke.
Nothing.

GermanyWarning: Staff insults and threatens guests! By far the worst hotel experience of my Vietnam trip. I can only strongly advise against visiting the hotel. Please protect yourself from such an experience. I was just insulted and threatened by the staff (owner) at the Dao Hung Hotel. Facts: there was a strong smell of cigarettes in two rooms. In each room is a no smoking sign but in each room was an Ashtray. A room was than offered that smelled ok. However, the air conditioning there was broken during the night and had switched itself off again and again with an error message. It had nothing to do with the timer function. It was unbearably warm in the room. It was a very uncomfortable night without much sleep. I couldn't be helped. When asked for compensation, only a Pepsi can was offered to me. I told polite that I m not satisfied with that compensation. After I asked for a 30% discount (the bill must be paid in advance) the staff was indignant and insulted and threatened me. I told that by a behavior like that I ll let the police to get involved. But there was not enough time I left quickly to avoid a physical confrontation! Absolutely outrageous behavior. What ever the hotel will answer to my statement, be warned of that people who working there! I contact the customer service of booking.com and they supported me.
