Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

AustraliaDidn’t love the brekkie, pretty basic but still fine. Don’t expect anything spectacular.
I chose this hotel firstly as we were being dropped off by the bus from Sapa at 10.30pm and it literally was 100mtrs away. Location great, not much after hours noise. Comfy huge bed.

United StatesI had issues with consistent hot water. The staff was really helpful & fixed it but it still didn’t stay hot for as long as I’d have liked but was better. (It was cold in January.) They offered to let me switch rooms but didn’t want to repack all over again.
Great location by the lake & old town. Easily walkable. Helpful staff. Rooftop view is nice. Free breakfast - order the pho or off the menu for best options.

AustraliaI had an amazing stay at Authentic Hanoi. The hotel's location is perfect, nestled in the heart of the Old Quarter, making it easy to explore Hanoi's vibrant streets. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to assist with a smile. Sandy, the manager, is a gem! She greets you with a warm and genuine smile, making you feel right at home. The hotel itself is spotless, with clean and comfortable rooms.

United StatesAir conditioning situation - might been bad luck across three separate stays. Seems to reset to a higher temperature in the middle of the night even with the timer, so not consistently cool or cold. If windows or doors aren't tightly sealed, noice and air from the outside can come into the room. Rest of family didn't have issues with keeping their rooms cool.
Breakfast buffet. Convenient location - easy walking distance to restaurants, shopping, attractions. Helpful staff, for example with booking transportation.

The staff was AMAZING! Always helpful, courteous and they speak English well. The facility was modern & clean. The breakfasts were nice-definitely things to choose from. They upgraded our room to a suite- it was large & modern with a private balcony. It was always cleaned well with many toiletries available.
