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.).

United StatesThe rooms that don’t look out towards the castle back up to a wall with no view.
Location is great, in the center of Kyoto and a short walk to the subway.

JapanNot many restaurants and convenient stores close by so some people might find it rather inconvenient compared to staying in the city center. The room lighting was a little too dark personally.
Located near Nijo castle and along one of the main streets but it was very quite. The bed was big and comfortable, the bathtub had a nice bathtub as well. The cafe lounge in the first floor was also nice to have a cup of coffee and chill out. It’s a great location if you want to stay away from the crowded areas in Kyoto.

United StatesThe boutique hotel lighting is my one real note. Set to dim doesn’t work for all times. Sometimes you need to see what you’re doing.
The breakfast was not included, but so good and so worth it. Was a really nice meal to start a big day of exploring.

United StatesThe entire hotel was absolutely gorgeous. Really enjoyed the room. The bath room in the room was very comfortable with an extremely good shower/bath and a very nice bidet. The various front desk employees were extremely helpful. They helped us book local events, forward our luggage, and inform us of events going on in the hotel.

United KingdomThere's no laundry on site but a 24hr launderette round the corner. There are no food options in the hotel that I'm aware of.
It's got a great vibe, cosy & chill. Location is opposite a castle and near the gardens. There's subway stations a short walk away. The bath and shower in the room were wonderful and the space is good.

United Arab EmiratesNot really a dislike, but having even limited in-house meal options would be a bonus. Personally not a fan of glass toilet doors even when traveling with close family members.
Boutique style hotel with lovely decor located right across from Nijo Castle. Options for places to eat located within walking distance. Great customer service and very nice bar lounge area. Stayed in a deluxe double room which was very comfortable with good amenities.
