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.).

SpainThe rooms have some flaws such as the wooden floor raised in some corners or the door that opens by itself if you don't have the latch on, but nothing remarkable that doesn't allow you to fully enjoy this fantastic place :)
These islands are paradise and the Sala Done Khone Hotel is the perfect place to stay. Beautiful, very intimate and beautiful pools. The staff are very friendly and helpful.

We all had cabins on the river which was fun. They are actually larger than they look in the photos. The staff were amazing!

SwitzerlandExpensive for what it is (50usd the night), with an overrated exchange rate if you pay in kip (all hostels do this though...). The tickets to get back to the mainland are also sold 20% more expensive than what was proposed down the road, beware of this.
Good location. We had a studio by the water, the place was clean and spacious. Breakfast was good. The swimming pool was nice too, despite having a greenish color which makes it look "natural"; I guess we aren't used to not having the smell of chlorine in a swimming pool

United KingdomSome of the chairs in the restaurant were not very comfortable. The pool was not that great and looked like it needed a clean.
Really lovely, quiet hotel, overlooking the river. The staff were exceptionally lovely - Mr Katai and his wife, and Mr Kai couldn’t have been more welcoming or helpful. The heritage room was really nice, if a little dark. The food was fabulous and sitting overlooking the river was wonderful.

So fantastic to be right on the water. We really enjoyed watching the night fishermen from our balcony!

United StatesWater pressure was horrible in both the sink and shower. Breakfast was limited. Wall with neighbor very thin.
We had a floating bungalow so loved being on the water and watching river life. Large room, beds were decent. Air con worked great and the ceiling fan was nice to have. Pool was nice to cool off in after a hot day exploring. Staff very nice and a few spoke English and were very helpful.

United KingdomThis hotel, like many others in Laos, has just opened after the long lockdown of COVID. Funds to improve the hotel infrastructure need to be generated to bring the hotel back up to par. I am sure over the coming months, the management team will be able to make necessary repairs and bring the standard of the hotel up to what it should be. Good luck
Staff were really accommodating and attentive, room was cleaned regularly and breakfast was very good. The location is spot on overlooking the river.

NetherlandsNothing actually. If there's anything to improve, it would be breakfast. It was ok, but a bit more variety would be nice.
The floating villa we had was better than expected. Comfortable beds, hot shower and all facilities worked properly. Beautiful view on the Mekong, both with sunrise and sunset. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The whole place was breathing tranquility. I would for sure recommend it!

CanadaThe bungalow is rather in bad repair and with poor soundproofing. Contrary to what is mentioned in Booking, there is no effective Wifi. We needed to go elsewhere at a restaurant to be able to get wifi. Scanty breakfast. We recommend you a place next door that is better. In addition, breakfast is not opened at 7AM (even if they tell you so) but at 7:30 AM. Ramshackle and ageing bicycles that need to be fixed.
It is well located in Don Khon. The floating bungalow on the river was very pleasant. The bicycle rent was useful although the bicycles are in bad shape and need to be changed. It was quite easy to organise the trip back with the hotel (even if they have higher prices than elsewhere).
