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):
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.).

New ZealandA little noisy from corridor and upstairs morning breakfast chairs scraping - easy solution is to add soft pads to the legs of the chairs? The pillows were a little too thick. We were in room 701 and you can quite loudly hear the next door neighbours pipes turn on with the shower which can be jarring.
Lovely spacious room. Balcony was great! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Right in the perfect zone in old quarter. Would happily stay again!

United StatesWe really enjoyed our stay at Esplendor Hotel. The location was excellent near multiple sites and attractions. The front desk person Chris (sp?) was so helpful, especially with local vegetarian restaurant ideas, transportation, and laundry. This was our first time to Hanoi, and staying at the Esplendor was a perfect introduction to this vibrant and fascinating city. I highly recommend!

United KingdomWe loved this hotel. Upon arriving via a taxi, staff immediately greeted us and helped us with our bags. We were provided a welcome tea, and then helped to our room. All of the staff were very kind and welcoming. The room itself was lovely, with plenty of storage space and it larger than expected. Despite being in the busy centre, the room was very quiet and we didn’t hear any noise from traffic etc. The hotel is situated in an ideal location, within walking distance to everything. We also enjoyed the breakfast too. Overall we’d definitely recommend this hotel and would return!

United KingdomLovely hotel in a quiet location, and easy walking for old quarter sightseeing. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable, and had a lovely ensuite bathroom. The whole place is tastefully decorated. There was a good selection available for breakfast buffet. Very friendly staff, especially Ms Lena Pham. They let us check-in early without charge, and also stored some of our luggage whilst we went on a week's tour. In total, we stayed 3 nights and we were very happy with this place. They also organised a transfer to Ninh Binh for us.

United KingdomFrom arriving to leaving, the hotel staff could not have been any more helpful or do enough for you. The room was very spacious and exceptionally clean. The breakfast area was very nice, food plentiful with a good choice. The Esplendor is in an ideal situation within the old quarter of Hanoi, providing easy access to Ho Hoan Kiem Lake, the Red Bridge and temple, Train Street, the water puppet theatre and the Hanoi Hilton (the old prison), all within 5 to 15 minutes on foot. We would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone wanting to stay in Hanoi.
