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.).

It was incredibly clean and well kept, easy to get to all the main spots in Luang Prabang. The host is one of the kindest people we have met during our time travelling, he goes above and beyond to ensure everything is perfect with your stay, including assisting with any travel, internally and externally, that may be needed. The laundry service is a massive plus, but the room itself was so comfortable and was a lovely place to spend some time.

I don't usually write reviews but I am writing one now because I thoroughly enjoyed everything about my stay here. Our room was clean and tidy with a powerful AC and a hot shower (the first truly hot shower I've had during my month in Southeast Asia). There is a little patio area that overlooks the river, and the hotel is two doors down (toward the end of the peninsula) from a restaurant that serves delicious duck and cold beer and seemed to be very popular with the locals. Breakfast was simple but delicious, with fresh fruit, your choice of entrée and a drink (the mango shake was my favorite). The owner went above and beyond in being kind, helpful, and accommodating, and had a very lovely family.

The breakfast was delicious (fruit smoothie, plate with fruit and a dish of your choice), the place very clean and the location is like 10 -15 minutes walk to the museum/night market. The owner is always smiley, speaks English and he's happy to help with anything you need. We also rented a scooter there, leaving our passport with the guesthouse owner, not with the motorbike agency.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Villa Ouis. The room was spacious, beautifully clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable – we slept so well! Breakfast was a highlight each day, with several delicious options to choose from. A big thank you to Robert and his lovely family – they went above and beyond to make us feel at home. We also really appreciated the water fountain available for guests. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Luang Prabang!

The chairs outside (with view to the river) are less comfortable than they originally look
I had a perfect stay in this guesthouse in Luang Prabang where in the end I stayed 6 nights (after originally booking fewer). Host is very kind and breakfast (various options: cooked egg in various ways with bread, plus fruit, plus fruit smoothie) was very good. The chairs outside (with view to the river) are less comfortable than they originally look, but there’s other normal chairs and the outside area is still very good to relax) Big spacious room with AC and fan, safe, fridge, … I would definitely stay again if I ever come back to Laos :)

The rooms look beautiful. The Host was the friendliest and most helpful person I’ve met so far on our journey. Cooks a nice breakfast and happy to help with everything, booking tours, transport etc.. We had a problem with our air conditioner at the night, he came straight out at 9:30pm to try and fix, when he couldn’t he organised a different room for us.

Amazing value for money! The owner Robert and his wife run the whole hotel together and do an amazing job! Breakfast was lovely and anything we needed was done for us promptly and with a smile! They also offer laundry service, motorbike rental, tours, mini bus and train tickets making it very convenient if you like to plan only a day or two ahead, like us. Thank you so much for a lovely stay 😁

Exceeded our expectations! The room was cosy and one of our favourites we’ve stayed in during our 3 month trip in SE Asia. We were always greeted with a warm and friendly welcoming at the reception. Breakfast was great with plenty to choose from. The location was perfect for us, a quiet area with plenty of cafes and restaurants and everything in walking distance. We rented a motorbike through the property and it was the most comfortable and reliable one we’ve rented during our trip. We wish we could’ve stayed longer!
