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.).

SingaporeThis has to be the most beautiful hotel in Sapa. The panoramic view of the hills and rice terraces is stunning. The staff are very well trained and go all out of their way to make us feel comfortable. Their customer service is par excellence. The hotel is very clean and very well maintained. The outdoor landscape is very beautifully planned and feels like a tropical paradise. The food is very good and service is excellent. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Sapa.

ItalyJust breakfast I believe could be improved offering different selections of juices ( most of the Vietnamese places we stayed, we have been offered freshly made ones with great variety too, here was not the case) and the selection of breakfast food too, cause if you stay more than two days can be boring.
The property is a gem, beautiful views, great decor and clean environment and excellent customer care.

Every single aspect of my stay at Eco Palms House Sapa was excellent and it exceeded my expectations in every way. To start, the location of the retreat is directly on top of the terraced rice fields, and the views are magnificent - the retreat is some 15 min away from the town by car, but the staff can secure a private taxi anytime. The bungalow itself is very cozy and nice, with a breathtaking view. The staff are beyond kind and helpful, always smiling. The food is excellent (I'm now addicted to their cinnamon tea). I would definitely recommend an extended stay there for anyone who wishes to have a magical stay in SaPa

United StatesIF you have bad knees, the steps are difficult, but doable. The bamboo floors are nice but are a problem if you have any balance problems. If it was mosquito season, it might be a little uncomfortable. Mosquito net over the bed but the rest of the bungalow is vulnerable because of big gaps in the doors. We didn’t have a mosquito problem when we were there.
The staff is Wonderful, the grounds and location and view are great! Cozy lobby/dining room!

CanadaWe specifically chose to stay outside of downtown Sapa. If you want to be surrounded by restaurants and night life rather than enjoy the beauty of the area, this may not be the place for you. (taxi service is easily accessible and inexpensive)
Eco Palms House - Sapa Retreat was a wonderful accommodation. We stayed in a superior chalet that was clean, charming and had a fabulous view of the rice paddies and mountains. The pool was an added bonus. Wang and Linh were always smiling and were very helpful and eager to make our stay the best that it could be. Breakfast was great and we very happily ate dinner at the restaurant each night as the food was very good and the ambience lovely. If you want to be surrounded by beauty and be treated very well by staff, this is the place for you.

ThailandAmazing location. Staff were fantastic and very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble, they helped arrange a trek, taxi rides and were always on hand to answer any queries. We didn't want to leave. Our best stay so far in Vietnam. Would highly recommend, especially for couples as the views are amazing and it is a very romantic setting. Food and drinks were also superb.

The Staff at Eco Palms was super friendly, welcoming and helpful during our stay! We had a great time and enjoyed the hike that we also booked through the staff. The breakfast and general food at the hotel is also really good!

KyrgyzstanStayed at Eco Palms House for 3 days and I can definitely say that it was the best part of the entire trip to Vietnam. View from our bungalow was spectacular, the decoration of the territory is super nice! Every single corner was beautifully and thoughtfully designed. Breakfast was amazing, staff is very nice and helpful. Everything was so good that we are planning to visit Vietnam once again just to stay here longer.
