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.).

SingaporeWe booked 3 rooms, one of the toilets had a musty smell
Hotel is located in the center of old quarter, making it easy to travel to most tourist attractions. Local food and cafes are abundant within walking distance. Staff speaks good english and are extremely welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was on the rooftop restaurant which had amazing views of old quarter

SingaporeDrinking water is not readily available / accessible in the restaurant at the 9th floor. Another thing we do not like is the absence of a possible cover to the big window in the bathroom of a family suite 701. Somebody in another room can accidentally watch you naked. Maybe installing a curtain inside the bathroom is a good idea
The hotel location. The hotel staff are friendly and are always ready to accommodate your queries. They are ready to inform you of all the good place to eat and all the tourist place to visit. They even waive my fee for the transportation from the hotel to the airport. When you avail of the breakfast in the hotel, it is not a buffet but a set meal. However, you can order all the breakfast offered in the menu until you are full.

Saudi ArabiaThough the hotel is small, we still enjoyed our stay coz it is close to restaurants and shops.
The staff were all helpful and accommodating. We arrived earlier than the check in time but they let us stay and accepted our luggages while we shop around the area. They managed to find us last minute day tour.

New ZealandThere are 3 La Selva Hotels in Hà Nội, just be careful which one you book and where you go. We met friends from Australia there and we accidentally booked different La Selva hotels, but Hackie the manager sorted it all the following day so we were all in the same hotel
Great location in Old Quarter, the staff were so friendly and helpful, nothing was a problem for them. Jackie the manager communicated well with us thru WhatsApp before we arrived and made everything easy.

NetherlandsActually nothing, it’s all good. But you should be prepared for this kind of small hotels as they are usually not purpose-built hotels but renovated (shop)houses. Very nice atmosphere but can feel a bit cramped at time and using the stairs means watching your head for low beams.
Overall a good experience. There are numerous similar small hotels in the old quarter and around Hoan Kiem lake and I have stayed in several. La Selva is one of the better ones. Nice rooms, friendly and helpful staff and a nice rooftop breakfast area.

United KingdomDue to the evening markets, the roads can be closed which means taxis can’t enter the road! However, the team will support you by either giving you a lift on their motorbike or arrange a vehicle if it is feasible at the time.
The hotel manager contacted me couple days before our arrival to welcome us. I was able to communicate with him over WhatsApp and ask any questions regarding the location etc he was incredibly helpful and so welcoming! Everything was perfect! They were soooo accommodating and supportive! The most helpful staff I have experienced in Vietnam so far! Jackie and his team are really lovely! The breakfast menu is also nice! There’s good variety of options and prepared fresh and quickly! After returning from Halong bay, I contacted Jackie to ask if we could leave our bags at the hotel and he immediately replied to my message saying it’s not a problem at all. He also helped me locate some vaccume bags as my luggage was full, and the team provided a hoover for the vaccum bags. I am very grateful for everything they have done! The room was clean and tidy! Whatever it is, just ask the team and I am sure they will try their best to help! Location is also fab! I booked a grab to the airport, but the team booked me a car for much cheaper!

OmanBreakfast Probably , we just had it once and the kids didnt like it.So cant judge from one experience.
Location was great , Right next to the Lake and Shopping Streets , The manager Jackie was Very Helpful and was in touch with us way before we reached. We were looking for rooms which were connected as we had two families and both had 2 and 3 kids respectivly. We cheked the hotel before choosing and we knew the rooms were small and narrow , any hotels in and around that area will be like that i suppose.It falls in most of the tours pick up area which was a blessing .

United StatesExcellent hotel. Central location. I would love the chance to come back. Room was quite comfortable, but the real difference here is the staff. They were helpful with preparing plans long before I ever arrived to the hotel, and continued to assist after we checked out. I have never worked with a staff so friendly! Highly recommend.
