Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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.
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...).

New ZealandThey had construction being done during my stay. Originally I was on the 4th floor and the noise was SO LOUD i couldnt even think. so I asked to changed to a higher floor, which they did and they were nice. But this still had a large impact on the quality of my stay.
Free breaksfast was great. The staff were very nice and friendly and the rooms were very good with netflix and youtube. very comfortable. if it wasnt for the construction I would give a 9 or 10

Czech Republic❌ Things We Didn’t Like: Cleanliness could be better – While generally clean, some areas, especially in the bathroom, needed more attention. Hard pillows – The bed was comfortable, but the pillows were too firm for our liking. Window issue – Some rooms have no windows, and last year we accidentally booked one. We had to pay extra to switch, so double-check when booking. Passport issue – Both times we stayed, the staff wanted to keep our passports, which we didn’t allow. Not sure why, but it’s something to be aware of. Overall, Athena Hotel is a solid choice for both leisure and business travelers. With a few improvements, it could be even better.
We stayed at Athena Hotel twice and returned because of its location and overall comfort. Here’s what we liked and what could be improved. ✅ Things We Liked: Great location – The hotel is in a busy but convenient area, with plenty of food stalls, cafés, and restaurants serving delicious Vietnamese street food. Big C Hypermarket nearby – Just 5 minutes away, a Western-style supermarket where you can find almost anything. Comfortable beds – The beds were soft and cozy, which is always a priority for us. Spacious bathroom – Large, with a glassed-in shower. Nice room setup – Includes a big desk (great for work or organizing things), an armoire for clothes, and a small safe (handy for passports and valuables). Fantastic breakfast – The buffet on the 11th floor offers a huge selection of hot and cold dishes, sweets, and drinks. Definitely worth including in your room rate!

The overall quality of the hotel and service for the price. Location not too far to the airport. Breakfast was a great selection on the 11th floor overlooking Ho Chi Minh City.

AustraliaThe only drawback is that the hotel is in district 10 and most of the places to visit and travel to (including good resturants) are all around district-1.

Hong KongThe only issue was that the wind from the central air conditioning was pointing straight to the bed and there was no way we could adjust the direction of the wind.
The hotel is near my meeting place. Though it is not in the touristy area, there are lots of restaurants and shops around. The staff were very helpful.

MalaysiaIt's mostly good, but one exception is a rude staff on night duties. Also, be informed that only in this hotel, your credit card may have issues to be used even though you may have no problems elsewhere in the same city. Baffling.

AustraliaThe breakfast was average. The rooms weren’t bad but not the value of what we paid. There was no taxi service from the airport and we had the most challenging and difficult experience getting transport from the airport to the hotel. We accidentally broke one glass and the staff made us pay for it. It wasn’t much, and the money wasn’t an issue. But considering the price, paying for a broken glass didn’t feel very nice.
The staff were helpful and courteous on our arrival but on departure wasn’t so great.

AustraliaI had some issues with my reservation and the hotel had changed my room without notifying me of the changes. In the future, I would've liked to be notified of the changes particularly given how often I had visited this hotel prior.
I've stayed at this hotel 3 times now. It's location is a happy medium between the city centre and the airport for those that need to do overnight transfers. The hotel itself is modern, clean and the staff are friendly and attentive.
