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.).

GermanyWe stayed here for a few days to explore the area around Ninh Binh, but also to relax and chill. It was the perfect location and we loved everything about it! It is quiet, surrounded by beautiful mountain scenery, and also the resort is not too big (we think about 13 rooms/houses). Staff is lovely, super attentive and speaks some English. The resort is brand-new, both rooms and the "garden" were beautiful. We loved the pool, it is big and very nice for swimming and we had it for ourselves most of the time. Food is of course a bit more pricy than in town, but that is okay and we even expected it to be more pricy. Local dishes are still cheap, while Western dishes are obviously more expensive but we haven't eaten those anyway. Breakfast was amazing! Great variety of Asian and western cuisine. Would definitely come back and recommend to everyone who would like to enjoy Ninh Binh outside of loud and touristy town of Tam Coc.

AustraliaStaff: The staff are amazing. The service is the best we have experienced. Liam and Mrs. Linh are so kind and very thoughtful. It was my birthday and they noticed by seeing the date on my passport and got me a suprise cake. They always ensured that we were comfortable and assisted us with anything we requested. Upon check-in, we were told about the area, including sights and things to do. The other staff we had contact with were also so kind and helpful. Food: The food was great. We ate at the restaurant and got room service a couple of times. The staff were so kind at explaining what sauces go with what as well. Breakfast was also very good, with many items for people with dietary requirements. The juices and coffee were so delicious. Grounds: The gardens and pool are absolutely beautiful. The view of the mountains is just stunning. It was like we were in a tropical paradise. There are plenty of sitting areas around the retreat. Room: The best hotel room we have stayed in. The decor and furniture are just perfect for the room. The bed was huge and super comfortable. There was a bathtub in our room which we enjoyed as well. They also have robes and slippers for use. Everything was so thoughtful. The room also had daily complimentary water. Others: The retreat has complimentary bikes, so we went on a lovely ride one morning. The staff also booked us return transfer from the airport and to Hanoi. This was very helpful. We wish that we had more time there to enjoy the retreat. I highly recommend this retreat. It was the highlight of our time in Vietnam. We will certainly come back, especially because the staff are so kind.

Tam Coc Retreat was one of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. The location is incredible, both surrounding and inside the villa which has a lovely garden and pool area. The staff were very accomodating and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. The villa/room was a generous size for our family, beautifully furnished and comfortable, great AC and aspect. The breakfast was ample, and the dinner I had in the restaurant was some of the best food I ate in Vietnam. I would highly recommend this Villa for a trip to Ninh Binh or Tam Coc, our only regret was that we didn't stay a couple more nights. Thanks Liam and Lin.

ChinaA few hiccups from the waitstaff at the restaurant but probably due to the fact they only recently opened. Nothing that can't be sorted out. The pool could be cleaned a bit better as well, but nothing too bad.
Linh is an absolute keeper! She is absolutely wonderful and her attitude and service are simply outstanding. The resort location is to us the best area to stay in to explore Tam Coc and the surrounding area. Overall we had a really great stay and would stay there again without hesitating.

We loved everything about this place! It`s a new resort, incredibly beautiful, and the house we stayed in was just perfect. The garden is lovely and the views are a dream. Most of all, the staff were so nice, we would like to send a big thank you for that. The restaurant is also really good, we ended up having all our meals there and were very happy. Breakfast with a view was an experience to remember, we felt so lucky to be there. Perfect place, great value, highly recommended. Wish we could be there again

VietnamThis was a great place to stay. The villa we had was perfect, a lovely little complex with the most helpful staff, they couldn't do enough for us. It is a little out of town, but I liked that, it was easy to get a taxi into town and we hired motorbikes through reception at the hotel.

CanadaVery little if anything to say that could decrease the overall impression.
This is a recently opened retreat built with style and attention to design detail; set in a beautiful garden landscape. The location is away from the hustle and bustle of the town but the perfect distance to access everything by bicycles provided by the resort. The individual bungalows are tranquil, private immaculately appointed with an exquisite bathroom. The pool is pristine and in the center of the gardens. A virtual oasis!

The swimming pool clean and really inviting. great choice of food with huge portions (pay attention when ordering) we also took the free bikes to ride in the surroundings rice fields and to the close temple.

AustraliaMy only comment would be a cleaner pool if I had to pick on something
We appreciated the peace this resort offered. Newly opened, but working very hard to make our stay so so comfortable. Some distance from the Ninh Binh restaurant buzz, but if you are looking to relax this is the place. The grounds are lush, tropical with mountain back drop. It's green and stunning. Our room was an individual unit, very comfortable , large king size bed, no TV, air conditioning struggled, but with a combination of fan and AC the room was cool. Bathroom well appointed, rustic viet style. Lovely pool area, although the water a little warm so cooling off was a challenge. Restaurant facilities were very limiting, so would recommend heading into town for options. The resort offers bikes for hire or take a taxi. We would come back for sure .

United KingdomThere was building work which was unfortunate. The hotel is small and at one point it was overrun by some very loud and boisterous French children whose parents did not check and this changed the whole feel of the hotel. There were small ants in the bedroom and it was irritating that the hot water ran out in the bath after about 5 cms of water.
Staff were nice and friendly and the location outside of Tam Coc made it quieter

FranceI recently stayed at your hotel seeking a peaceful retreat, but unfortunately, my experience was less than satisfactory. The construction works near the pool disrupted my mornings, beginning at 7:30 am, and continued during breakfast. Despite bringing this to the attention of the reception on the first day, there was no resolution, and the noisy works persisted for the next two days, even starting early on the weekend. This inconsistency with the advertised tranquility was disappointing. The could have done it during the day when the guest are out but not in the morning. Additionally, the recommended bath tub didn't work, and there was insufficient hot water, further diminishing the quality of my stay. The hotel's location, coupled with the inconvenience of needing a taxi for 100k VND to reach the main area, added to the overall dissatisfaction. Regrettably, based on this experience and considering the price, I would not stay at this hotel again.
