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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

SingaporeThe innkeepers are a lovely elderly couple who went the extra mile to make the stay pleasant and comfortable. They kindly provided transport to and from the bus stop on check in and check out, and also have scheduled transport runs to the nearby Goryu ski fields.

United KingdomNothing! The stay was perfect.
I can’t write enough positive feedback about Inn Wataboshi. Tucked into the forest but just next to the ski resort, we really got the full Japanese experience with the best hotel hosts we’ve ever had. The couple who run the Inn couldn’t have been more helpful, with an excellent shuttle service to and from the very nearby slopes (walkable if needed), going above and beyond to help us get ski rentals and go to other resorts, and even packing us a picnic lunch when we left! The facilities were always absolutely spotless and the rooms where cozy, clean, and comfortable. The Inn is also close to lots of great restaurants but in a very quiet, residential area. We will recommend Inn Wataboshi to anyone coming to Hakuba- staying here truly made our stay an unforgettable experience.

AustraliaInn Wataboshi was a fantastic place to stay with amazing hosts. There is convenient transport to and from the location, you can walk to the ski lifts or get a shuttle up from the owners. The beds and facilities are comfortable and food was delicious. I couldnt ask for more gracious hosts, would stay again.

the place was clean and cozy. facilities and items were designed and placed purposefully to ensure that the entire stay was seamless - from the automatic lights/toilets, heater placed right outside the shower, to the small amenities. shower and bath were amazing and warm, perfect for winter. our hosts are exceptional!!! they ran the inn for many years and were very helpful and kind in giving us recommendation and helping us with the navigation even though we can’t quite speak japanese. we were very well taken care of by them. breakfast and dinner are available only if you let them know beforehand. free pickup/drop-off service is also available to and fro wataboshi and goryu escal plaza (only for specific period of time - let the hosts know beforehand if you need). our hosts were kind enough to drop us off at kamishiro train station on our last day early in the morning, and even gave us onigiri and apples to bring along our way. immensely grateful. 10/10 would come back here to stay if i were to come back to hakuba.

South AfricaYou don't get a towel with the room. You can rent one at the front desk which worked well but in the future I'll make sure to bring my own. Also in the shared accommodation showering times are only in the afternoon, the shower room seemed to be closed in the mornings.
The staff were very friendly and welcoming. They went above and beyond to help me out, picking me up from the train station and driving me to and from the slopes every day. Accommodation was also very clean. They also helped to organise a lift pass. The self serve coffee and tea station was nice too.

United StatesLet me start by saying that the staff were dear and kind throughout my stay. They were attentive to every question and request, helpful when providing information, and showed great kindness to me over the week I spent at Wataboshi Inn. The location is a 10 minute walk from the slopes, but has the added benefit of being in a quiet are surrounded by trees and other small inns and houses. My room was small, simple, and cozy in ways that surpassed my hopes. I had a great week of solitude and peace in the snow and evergreen trees. I recommend the Wataboshi Inn to anyone looking for a balance of action and quiet, or a mellow stay at a unique and comfy inn surrounded by mountains. 素敵な経験だった。亭主は優しすぎた。おすすめですよ!11/10❤️
