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):
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.).

IndiaIt was an unforgettable experience with Ambassadar cruise. We went for overmight cruise with family, everyone enjoyed a lot. The timings were punctual, and check in/out process was smooth. Halong Bay location was beautiful, and wonderful experience of Kayaking, and boats. Rooms with balcony are luxurious, clean with compfy bed. The food was delicious, and exceptional. Being Indian Vegetarian, they really setup the food as per my request. Dinner was awesome with nice outdoor seating, fire place, and live music. Thanks to chef Dhansingh. The Manager and staff are lovely, and took care of us in all aspects. Would definitely recommend.

SingaporeShip is a bit dated. Room is a bit small for 3 of us, and the extra bed is a portable bed. Mattress is a bit too soft for me. Other than that, all is great!
I went through and compared with a lot of other cruises before finally choosing Ambassador Cruise. 1. One of the few cruises that lets you board from the dock directly. 2. Food (of course!) Chose the Western dinner with Lobster and Steak 3. Reasonable price compared to other cruise. (There are of cos some cheaper and some more expensive ones) 4. Private balcony. Its big enough (I do not like those where we can see the neighbours) 5. Size of the boat (not too big and not too small) 6. This ship accommodates 3 person to a room.

AustraliaFailure to supply free drinking water other than 1 small bottle in each room. For a 5 star vessel paying that amount of money, this small expense would be wise as the need to pay for water left a very bitter memory!
Great facilities, friendly and accommodating staff, well organised sightseeing stops.

IndiaHalong bay is gorgeous but it’s very touristy! Personally I don’t think it was worth the price we paid for!
It’s a gorgeous cruise with good facilities and staff really puts in a lot of effort to make you feel comfortable. Our room had a balcony and it was nice to sit and soak in the view. Staff had also made special arrangements for vegetarians even for the evening dinner. We were there for Christmas Eve and had a fabulous time!

AustraliaBecause we stayed only one night we couldn’t enjoyed the ship as much as we want because the daily activities are one after another and you need to rush a bit to get ready and hop on to the small boats. Which is very normal to organize over 50 people is not easy. I would recommend a 2 night tour to make it the most of this amazing cruise and meals also Ha Long Bay.
Thanks to the management and staff we had an unforgettable experience at Ha Long Bay. I have proposed to my partner on the longest night of the year on the cruise and the staff help me a lot to make it the best plan ever!! They upgraded our room and provide us a lot of extras. The room was one of the best rooms that we ever stayed. The dinner was excellent, it felt like a fine dining restaurant. We enjoyed it with an amazing life soft music and one of the most beautiful view. Thanks to them it was an easy “YES” for me :)

AustraliaSome of the dishes could've tasted better for dinner but for the most part, everything was great on the trip.
Accidentally booked the Presidential Suite as it was the last room available and it exceeded my expectations. The room is massive and has a vintage feel, and the size of the balcony was equally impressive. Most of the food was great, staff were so hospitable and the service was amazing. It was one of the best experiences I had in Vietnam. I usually get seasick on cruises but the water is very calm in Halong Bay that it felt as though I was on land. The little trips to the caves, beach, and kayaking were fun. Too bad it was over so quickly after 1 night.

United KingdomThere were only a couple of negatives one of which was we waited a while for our drinks to be served on the upper deck and the beers in cans were not cold so we had to wait longer for them to be put in ice. The weather was so hot that a cold drink was a necessity. Also we knew the ship didn’t offer live entertainment on a Monday so we chose a Wednesday but there was no-one playing. We could hear entertainment on all the other surrounding boats. I did ask a staff member but they said the band had become unwell so could not perform. It would have been a good idea for the manager to announce this at the meeting we all had to attend when we boarded as it was confusing.
The food alone is with the entire cost of this trip. The evening meal in particular is 6 courses if choosing the western option and all of it was delicious. There are so many activities on offer too. The ship is immaculate and the staff have everything organised perfectly. Everyone was so friendly especially Camille in the restaurant who catered for our food allergies with the chef preparing separate dishes for us. We would definitely stay again.

There is a lift on board for those of us who don't like stairs and lots of excursions (or you can opt to simply relax on board) It was a wonderful experience.

IndiaCan’t order much snacks except for the set meals they offer.
Very well maintained cruise. The sundecks are huge, no one can go without a seat. The staff is very courteous. We were vegetarians and were very concerned about options. But we had enough, and menu was specially curated for us. The food was very tasty as well. The live music in the night was a lot of fun. The rooms are spacious enough for a cruise with a private balcony. Would definitely recommend.
