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.).

IndiaShower area can use a bath mat. Informed Jackie about this and I'm sure it will be addressed promptly.
Beautiful property and well appointed rooms, great experience from start to finish. Special mention for the staff at the hotel - reception, restaurant, management, everyone was extremely helpful and always smiling. Good air conditioning, comfortable beds, convenient work desk, good amenities, coffee and tea provisions in the room. Breakfast is on the top floor, and is a la carte with a good variety to choose from. Truly deserving of the high ratings and praise this hotel gets. After 2 years of little to no tourism and closures, many hotels in Vietnam have suffered from the lack of upkeep and general maintenance. I experienced this at another hotel in Hanoi at the beginning of my trip when I stayed for 2 nights. While the hotel was rated above 9, it was close to a 6. But I am happy to report that La Selva is a wonderful hotel that has been refreshed and works hard to give its guests the best experience possible. Highly recommended. PS: Thank you for phin filter and coffee!

IrelandCannot say anything negative, overall great experience and good value for money.
The hotel is in a great location in the middle of the old quarter, everything you need is within walking distance. The hotel itself was lovely and clean, rooms comfortable and very well sound proofed from the bustling streets. Shoutout to the staff, especially hotel manger Jackie, he could not have been more accommodating. He helped us plan our trip outside of Hanoi which was a great help and when we were checking out of the hotel early, he even organised a packed breakfast for us on the bus which was much appreciated. I would highly recommend staying here and booking your tours with Jackie. It was very reassuring to have him as a point of contact during our trip.

NorwayExcellent service from the whole staff. We made our reservation at the last minute, but everything we asked for was organised for us on a short notice from airport transfer to one day tours with a good price and quality. The breakfast has a good variety, should be something for everyone. Nice atmosphere and great service. We had the room with balcony. The room is OK, and the bed is good. The bathroom is not big, but clean and the shower is spacious.

AustraliaDidn't realise that not having a window in the room would be such a big deal as our natural body clock was shut off due to the lack of sunlight entering the room in the morning/daytime. We had to accept this as it was something we were aware of upon booking the room. We would stay here again, although we would book a room with a window next time.
Staff pay a lot of attention to detail, especially in helping you plan your trip. The room was big enough to move around and bed comfortable to sleep in. Rooftop restaurant was a nice view of the city for breakfast, felt the French inspiration.

AustraliaShower is a bit small but clean.
Good little hotel . Excellent location in the old quarters, easy to access to the whole of things to see in Hanoi. All within walking distance of 3-4kms. Furthermore, We found out from the locals that the old quarter houses the best of the best food in hanoi. Love the room concept. For their size, its comfortable. Beds great.The staffs are good. Very accommodating. They are welcoming and good English skills. Get them to organise taxi pickup and drop off to avoid hassles. Again, good value. Dont forget to leave tips for room cleaner. The lady is very sweet.
