How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe owner is really nice, smiling and accommodating our needs. We have booked a big room with an extra bed. That seemed a bit too small for fit the 5 of us - so I asked for an extra room, which was no problem at all and she even discounted that extra room for us. The room would have fit the 5 of us - but it would have been a bit too crowded/difficult to move around the luggages and so, that's why I asked for the extra room, which was a good choice. The breakfast was nice, although nothing that very special (maybe had a bit too much expectations after the reviews). All in all - good stay, extremely good value for money. I would not mind staying again. The hotel is quite well situated - close to restaurants and there is a lot of night life on the streets. However - the hotel is located in a second row from the street, so we didn't experience any noise discomfort and had a good sleep.

Verified reviewWe arrived early in the morning after taking the sleeper bus from Hanoi. Even though we were hours before check in, we were allowed to leave our luggage in the hotel and offered a welcome drink. We then went and got breakfast somewhere close by and then were able to check in earlier than the expected time. The staff were so helpful and friendly - they recommended an amazing tour of Bach Ma National Park and organised our ongoing journey to Hoi An. We ended up staying an extra night and that was no problem for them. The breakfast was a good choice and my two boys loved the banana pancakes and hot chocolate for breakfast. The location is perfect for exploring the city of Hue and for enjoying the entertainment at night as it’s within walking distance to the imperial city and river and it is close by to the main nightlife. Would definitely recommend.

Verified reviewWe thoroughly enjoyed our several-day stay at the Hong Thien Ruby Hotel. The location is outstanding, right off a lively street near the river with plentiful restaurants and shopping, but at the end of a peaceful alley. The owner graciously arranged transportation for us from the airport and then a personal escort from a main street because the smaller street was closed to traffic on the weekends. There are a number of vegetarian/vegan restaurants in the area, and Ruby Hotel provided ample choices and basically all you can eat for breakfast. The rooms are spacious with plenty of hot water and toiletries. I highly recommend Hong Thien Ruby Hotel!

Verified reviewHotel location was excellent — close to bars and restaurants but tucked away from the main street, so it was nice and quiet at night. Around 30min walk from Imperial city. The room was spacious and comfortable, though a bit outdated, but for the price, it was definitely worth it. Breakfast was good as well. They offered a small menu to order from, and the food was good. Overall, a great value for money!

Verified reviewThe husband and wife team at reception are very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the many options for breakfast, cooked when you order what you want. They accommodated my gluten free dietary needs very well. The room was nice and clean, and well appointed. Great location just off the busy pedestrian street (on weekends) with lots of restaurants and shops, but quiet since it’s half a block down an alley.
The wifi was not as strong as it could be in our room but fine in the lobby.

Verified reviewThe very hospitable and kind hosts of this little hotel is a reason for itself to stay there. It is located in the "happening" area of the city but in a small alley at the back to avoid most of the noise. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the breakfast very good and you can arrange excursions directly from the hotel.
WiFi could be better and one of the bed matrices called for a change, but perfectly fine for our 3 days stay.

Verified reviewVery good location, within walking distance to all necessities, the host provided us a map and explanation of the surrounding. Good wi-fi, good water pressure in the shower. All basic amenities provided.
The host was very overbearing and engaged in a lot of conversation trying to upsell us when we were really tired and just wanted to go to sleep. The breakfast menu is pretty unimaginative, mostly western dishes instead of local cuisine and with small portions. At first we were given a room with a clogging toilet and a leaking AC unit, but it was exchanged for a better room.
