Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. 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. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do 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 or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Everything was great there from beginning to the end. The photos and information about facilities were accurate. The room was spacious enough for a couple, comfy beds. There was a small fruit buffet for breakfast, plus some optional eggs and drinks. Centrally situated, near the river and wooden bridge.

Room services on requests. If you do not ask for cleaning services, they will not enter the room. Just put the sign, there is a staff to make up the room.
Our room was tidy, quiet, a bit dated, but nice and clean. The price matched with the hotel services provided, we were pleased with our stay there, it is not cheap hotel to compare with other places in town, but good value for money.

A small hotel, but the coziness made us feel more comfortable. Stunning mountain view to see sunset or sunrise was amazing. We loved it when we woke up and opened the windows.

I must share my own comment about this place to others because of a very fantastic hotel. Laundry was available and it was so clean, quick when I collected it. Reasonable train tickets and tuktuk to station were a deal for me. One thing is the delicious breakfast. Mountain view from my room is also amazing at all. In addition, great and kind hosts made the difference to other hotels I have stayed before. Room rate is cheap but I thought it is really valuable place, located near many restaurants and some bars , local morning market nearby so I could see how locals sell stuffs and how an interesting life is going. Thank you Mr Alex for a lovely conversation when I was there.

Clean hotel and helpful staff made Vang Vieng Camellia Hotel special. They worked hard to serve you the BEST they can offer. Look basic but valuable for my enjoyable stay there. Located near city center, and we can easily find a good restaurant to eat. Hotel was fully booked on the day we arrived but we were served kindly . We think this is a good place to stay in Vang Vieng for a short time. Alex and his brother are great hotel owners. Highly recommended.

The location is in the center of town, located near the famous Nam song river, night market in Vang Vieng. There is a local morning market, opposite the hotel, very interesting with walk around. The staff, maybe the host, Alex is a kind and gentle man. He upgraded our room without extra payment, and also managed and organized kayaking tour, tuktuk to train station with friendly price. The room rate was good and breakfast included, also good! Clean hotel, clean room.

Everything was fantastic at Camellia during our stay. The room, the breakfast or the hospitality of the owner, Alex did his best to make sure his guests happy and enjoyable. The hotel was located near a small local market, near Namsong river, just few minutes on foot to river bank. Good quality of some daily tours, arranged on request by the host, we had a lot of fun to join his group tours.
