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.).

BulgariaNothig to add here.
Our only regret is that we didn’t spend more time here. Super clean room in an extremely stylish and cozy house. The location is as perfect as it gets — very relaxed and quiet area just a few minutes away from the Royal Citadel. On top of everything, our hosts helped us immensely by literally organising our day tour around Hue — from car and boat transfers to food and sight recommendations. Fully recommend!

GermanyNothing. I couldn’t afford it as solo traveler but found another to share. But you have to like each other as it’s one bed and one blanket 😅
Looks and feels like a fancy hotel. Big shower. Comfy bed. Within the old quarter. Host wasn’t present cause of private issues but was reachable any time. Very nice. We came with the overnight bus and could come and leave our luggage at 7am. Even could take a shower in their privat bathroom or hang in the living room.

United StatesBeautiful room! Lovely hosts. The location can be a pro or a con depending on what you are looking for. Very close to the citadel and Imperial Palace, but quite far from the main drag/new part of the city. I liked the location, quieter, local restaurants with very few tourists. No issues getting a Grab ride.

United KingdomWhilst the homestay is lovely, the location is maybe a little strange (and hard to find, even with Google Maps). There is no signage on the Homestay so make sure you've taken note of the pictures of the house from Booking.com. We found the local area slightly lacked any mini-market style shops large enough for basics, and it's a decent 30min walk into the new town area (majority of restaurants and bars), even though it's only a 10-15min walk to the Imperial City entrance.
Pleasant homestay on the 'Imperial City' side of the river in Hue. The room and bathroom are very modern and have been decorated with nice taste, and the family that runs the homestay are very friendly and helpful, arranging taxis and tours for us. It's very much a combined entrance onto the downstairs floor of the family home, just as fair warning - didn't bother us at all but this has a very genuine homestay feel in that regard.

United KingdomWe had come to stay as we weren't feeling well enough to travel so spent the day in bed and it was quite noisy at times due to the nature of it being a family home and then again in the morning as everyone got up and the house was cleaned for the day however we did still have an overall peaceful stay and were able to rest and recuperate. It is also a little difficult to find the property as it is a bit hidden with no signs - if you come from the side with the lake/pond then you need to go down the road to the kings platform structure. Once there turn right and walk over the grass/path to the far corner where this lovely property is tucked away! (We ended up phoning and it was answered straight away)
The room was clean and well presented with a huge glass window looking out over the grass which was lovely. Our hosts were super friendly and welcoming and helped arrange our onwards bus as well as giving us an excellent bakery recommendation!

AustraliaAlthough the location was conveniently close to the Imperial City area, it was somewhat isolated from other attractions and lacked nearby ATM machines. The homestay itself was fantastic. Excellent place.
The Purple Hue Homestay in Hue is an excellent place to stay. The owners are incredibly friendly, offering plenty of recommendations for places to visit and delicious food to try. The accommodation is delightful, impeccably clean, and matches the advertised pictures perfectly.

Beautiful spacious room, good walking distance to the imperial city. The highlight of the stay was how friendly and hospitable Tinh and her family were. From recommending places for food to organising motorbikes she was on hand for all queries and went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed hue. They were especially helpful when my partner was unexpectedly unwell-allowing much later checkout so he could sleep, helping us find pharmacy, taxis etc. Thank you so much!
