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 reviewThis was quite an experience. You can see that everything is very well orchestrated to the last details and the day planning is strictly followed. But nothing of it gives a rush feeling or an unpleasant feeling. Our guide Vinnie (Vinh) was really very nice, had all under control and made our stay perfect. All the activities were fun and well organised. The food was super good, I didn't expect to get such a quality on the boat - but all was really tasty and nicely presented. We went beginning of August (low season for Vietnam) and chose the Signature for sailing the least touristic Bai Tu Long - we saw few boats on the way, but never had feeling the sea was too crowded...so it was definitely a nice choice. Don't know how busy this bay is during the high season - but we enjoyed the whole stay a lot. I am definitely very happy with the choice of our cruise.
We booked the transport from Hanoi (and back) - the first driver was a bit reckless and could have been a better (more patient) driver. We didn't like the sanitary stop on the way to Ha Long - at the pearl "farm/shop" - it was kind of massive and felt completely useless, I can't believe many people buy things there. After getting out of the bus - we were rushed by some lady "come here, come here"...for some explanations about the pearls etc. and after going through the mega big pearl shop, we had to go back in again to find the toilets. There was a similar stop on the way back - at least that felt a bit better, as this workplace is supporting people with disabilities.

Verified reviewAndy & his team were amazing! Andy was extremely informative, and it was great to learn the history and stories of the area. The attention to detail and the small details such as our country flags and the arrival towels and drinks made us feel special. The boat was stunning & it was incredible to be surrounded by such stunning scenery. Such a heart warming and memorable experience. Highly recommend.

Verified reviewI had the best time ever on the Signature cruise - a special thanks to Win for taking such good care of me and making the trip so memorable. I was unsure how the experience would pan out as a solo traveler but I was made to feel so welcome and the staff are very intuitive towards each guest’s individual needs. I loved the activities and the food was exceptionally delicious too. I was lucky enough to stay in the VIP suite with the whole back deck as my balcony - a real once-in-a-life-time opportunity that I did not take for granted :) Thanks again to Win and all the team - I cannot recommend the cruise highly enough.

Verified reviewEverything about our cruise experience was perfect and well organized. We were picked up from the Athena Lounge by our cruise manager Mr. Win, who was always kind and attentive throughout our stay. We felt very welcome and taken care by him. He also showed us our rooms and the facilities which exceeded our expectations. He was very caring and cheerful all the time. Lily, Ivy, Duong and Duck also took very good care of us throughout our stay from during meal times to the excursion. They are always available and caring. All the staff were caring and smiling all the time. There are more who I unfortunately do not know their names. But the whole crew was very welcoming and did a great job to run the cruise smoothly. Food was perfect for all meals. Win and Ivy also asked if we needed anything else and the menu was well catered to both non-vegetarian and vegetarian. The room and facilities were great and exceeded pur expectation. The excursion were also well organized and everything ran on time. There was no waiting at all. The cocktails by Duong and Duck were also delicious and memorable. I love the Happy Hour. I will come back on this cruise as a matter of fact the next cruise has been booked for December. I can't wait for it.

Verified reviewSUPER professional staff and arrangement! Really everything about this stay was perfect. I’d like to mention Win or «Winner» as just a brilliant guide and arranger. Made us feel like we were always comfortable and made sure we had the best time possible. Just from the very start of the trip where we met Vinny who talked us briefly about what is gonna happen next and etc we were in good hands. 100% gonna visit this cruise again in the future and then for an even longer time :) Thanks again to the staff and Win for such a lovely stay.

Verified reviewThe cruise was comfortable and clean. The staff were exceptional, they were so polite and friendly all throughout , they couldn't do enough for you. The bed was super comfortable and the room was spacious and tidy. The day trips were great, including kayaking and swimming.
The only complaint would be the shower, it was a big bath but there was nowhere to hold the shower head, it was just in the side of the bath and you had to hold it up over your head. But, this was very minor.

Verified reviewEverything was just perfect: the crew, the food, the service,… I also want to mention our guides: Win and Lilly; they did an outstanding job, 10 / 10.
During the transfer from and to Hanoi, the driver stopped for 35 min. in a souvenir shop. 5 to 10 minutes are more than enough to use the restroom or grab a coffee. It would be better if they skipped it, it is totally unnecessary for a 2 hour trip. Also, you can’t stay on the bus.
