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 reviewIt's close to Hoan Kiem and there are many good restaurants nearby, so it's good. The staff is friendly. In particular, a staff member named Andrew took great care of me during breakfast and gave me a cute key ring as a gift. I felt good when I checked out. I'm satisfied. I'll use this hotel again next time.

Verified reviewThe Hanoian Central truly impressed me. My room was cozy, clean, and modern. But what stood out was the food at Bell Pepper Restaurant absolutely delicious! Every dish was full of flavor, beautifully presented, and made with fresh ingredients. I especially loved the traditional Vietnamese options. I didn’t feel the need to eat anywhere else. Highly recommend!

Verified reviewI stayed at Hanoian Central Hotel for just one night, but everything was perfect. The location is ideal—just a short walk to the Old Quarter and Hoan Kiem Lake. The room was cozy and spotless, with all the amenities I needed. The staff were welcoming and even helped me plan my next day in Hanoi. I’ll definitely come back if I return to Hanoi.

Verified reviewHanoian Central went well beyond what I expected during my stay. The staff stood out as some of the friendliest and most helpful I've ever met. Their English was excellent, more than I anticipated, which made it easy to get travel tips and directions around the city. My room was spotless and cozy, perfect for resting and relaxing whenever I needed a break. The breakfast was delicious and varied, and the breakfast staff were always attentive and cheerful, making each morning a pleasant start to the day. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Hanoi and would like to receptionist and restaurant team for everything they did to make the trip so special.

Verified reviewA nice hotel in a great location. The service was impeccable, with every staff member going out of their way to ensure we felt welcomed and attended to. On my second day, I casually mentioned at breakfast that I missed having some local vegetarian dishes. The next morning, to my surprise, the chef had added vegetarian spring rolls, stir-fried tofu with onion, and oven-roasted tomatoes to the buffet. I felt so seen and valued. This is not just service, it’s care. I’ve stayed in many places, but few have listened this closely.

But to my surprise, the next morning the staff brought out a small cake at breakfast and sang me happy birthday! I was so touched, it made my day feel truly special.

Verified reviewI felt completely safe and looked after here. The staff always greeted me with a smile, helped me with directions and even checked in when I got back late from exploring. Reception staff are very knowledgeable and able to help with literally anything (we asked them to call a restaurant for us and make reservation as I was having trouble with my Vietnamese Sim). This was also the only hotel where we used the in house spa during our 3 weeks in Vietnam as we normally went outside for massages however this was so worth it. Our deep gratitude to all the team

Verified reviewHanoian Central Hotel was the perfect home base for our adventures in Hanoi. We arrived quiet early, and were greeted with tea and cakes with our luggage whisked away so we could explore until our room was ready. The hotel is wonderfully located within the old quarter a short distance from the lake. As would be expected within the old quarter, the rooms are not the largest Despite this, we found the room to be clean, comfortable and well-appointed. Breakfast is a buffet with a good selection but you can also order from the menu at no extra cost. The staff is super polite and very helpful, extremely kind and professional and they spoke English well with us. 100% would recommend staying here

There was so much attention to detail, we were truly impressed with the level of service. We had lunch and dinner at Bell Pepper restaurant many times, we kept going back because everything was so amazing.

Verified reviewAs a vegetarian, I'm always a bit worried about food options when I travel. But the staff here really impressed me. Tiffany took the time to recommend several nearby vegetarian restaurants, even marked them on my map and helped me say key phrases in Vietnamese. I ended up having the best vegetarian Vietnamese food of my life thanks to her help. Even at breakfast, I was pleasantly surprised to find several vegetarian friendly options like veggie stir-fry, roasted potatoes, pasta, and even a simple but tasty pizza. It's clear they made an effort to cater to all dietary needs. Amazing service for plant-based travelers!

Verified reviewHanoian Central Hotel is in such a convenient spot, just a few minutes' walk to Dong Xuan Market, Train Street and the weekend Night Market. The Old Quarter is busy and a bit chaotic, but that's part of the charm. I love exploring the nearby food stalls, then coming back to the hotel for some quiet and comfort. It really felt like the best of both worlds
