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 is a great place to stay in Luang Prabang. Our balcony overlooked the Mekong. An absolutely amazing view. The room and the whole hotel has a 'heritage' feel. The woodwork in the room is just beautiful. There is a waterfall shower with plenty of hot water. The room has lots of outlets. The wifi worked great. Our included breakfast was excellent, I especially enjoyed the banana pancakes. The woman who manages the hotel really went out of her way to make us feel at home. There's a little restaurant/convenience store just next door, which was very convenient. The bed was very comfortable, the air conditioning worked well. Luang Prabang itself is a unique place. It's perfect for walking and bike riding. The whole place has a historic vibe. The morning and evening markets are both a lot of fun. So this is a unique and relaxing destination, and the Mekong Charm River View is where you want to stay.

Verified reviewWe stayed two nights at Mekong Charm. The rooms are spacious and very clean. Amazing air conditioning during the hot season. Solid breakfast and the most amazing staff. The hotel manager, Ms. Lynn, was absolutely incredible in making our two days in Luang Prabang fun and memorable. She offered us recommendations for things to do and places to eat, set up our train and transport, and was so pleasant and accommodating to work with. Everything she recommended was spot on. I highly recommend this place!

Verified reviewVery nice location next to the Mekong. Also two minutes walk to the main street. The host was speaking english, and was very kind and accomodating (helped us with buying train tickets for example). The rooms were clean and a nice bed. The room is cleaned daily with fresh towels. They have a small menu for breakfast including eggs, pancakes, fruit with yogurt. We came back for a second time when we stopped by Luang Prabang!

Verified reviewThis is a very nice and comfy place to stay, very friendly and helpful, and we would particularly emphasize the helpfulness of Ms. Lynn, the manager, and her assistant and night watch, Thong - all being very kind people. The location of the hotel is very good and quite, off the Main Street but within short walk to many smaller and good restaurants

Verified reviewThe manager was very helpful and caring. Location right next to the river
The hotel is not a 4 star hotel. May be a 2 star with basic services. Breakfast was just ok. Room had issues with the TV and AC that started leaking. You are supposed to remove your shoes before entering the property but the hotel does not provide sleepers and other customers took our own. We had to dispose them

Pay attention and be careful on the stairs; I was handling my bag and slipped and fell because of wearing socks. But we loved the place!

Verified reviewI loved this place and feel so lucky to have found it. As a solo traveler, i found this whole place charming, welcoming and supportive. Lynn was such an amazing host and she really made the stay. She is so welcoming. The room was great, she had kindly upgraded me to the river view, what with it being the low season, which was very kind of her and i loved waking up and seeing the river or sitting on the terrace at night. It was incredibly peaceful there. Breakfast was delicious and very filling and even as a vegetarian there were choices for me. I took advantage of their low season offer of a free sunset cruise if you stay two nights. The river cruise was a highlight of my trip, it was a perfect way to spend an evening and so relaxed. Lynn also helped with the booking of my train tickets which was a huge help as it was a big nerve wracking wondering if you would get tickets or not! She helped organise the transport back to the train station at the end of my stay too. Basically, she was incredibly accommodating and you can tell she enjoys meeting all her guests. The location was perfect for me, i wanted to be off the main strip, near the Mekong but in a quiet location and this was exactly that! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.

Verified reviewLOVED everything about it here! The staff were BRILLIANT, went above and beyond to help us multiple times! The location on the river was perfect and breakfast was delicious (you ate waterfront which was so nice!) The rooms were lovely, spacious and had comfy beds. As it was down season our booking included a river cruise along the Mekong and we had such a great time ! 10/10 would absolutely come back here and definitely would recommend.
