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.).

AustraliaMinor consideration---It's a little out of town but they have a fixed time shuttle service. Unless you like to walk or use taxi on arrival it is best to time your arrival with shuttle availability.

AustraliaIt’s not in the most glamorous part of town (40 years ago it was rice paddies, now shopping centres). But it looks inwards so not a problem.
This was the most wonderful place we stayed in our month in Japan. Three nights of keiseki dinners, each better than the last. We had a huge comfy tatami room, the onsen were fab, the staff were incredibly kind, dropping us into town each day and collecting us in the afternoon, making it easy to enjoy marvellous Matsumoto. Totally recommend it to anyone who wants a homely feeling ryokan with top end food.

United KingdomThis was a traditional ryokan, that is why we chose it. As such the futon beds although a bit challenging to two older people, they were as expected. What we hadn’t anticipated and found really hard though was the lack of somewhere comfortable to sit in our room. The seating arrangement provided, two legless chairs, was authentic but we found it hard to get comfortable. Don’t be put off by this, the experience was well worth it. Just be aware.
All the staff were attentive and helpful. The food was amazing and the building quite unique.. There was a free shuttle bus into and from the station which was really useful.

United StatesTatami beds can be challenging for older western bodies, but they do add to the charm of the inn.
Breakfast and especially the kaiseki dinner were both outstanding. Wonderful baths. The best thing was the hospitality of the hosts. They are some of the nicest people ever!

United KingdomThe only problem is the location is quite a distance from central Matsumoto. The property provides a shuttle to and from the station, which is handy.
The food here is outstanding. Breakfast is good, but the dinner service is truly impressive. We lost count of how many courses we were served and each night was something different. They even catered for one of us being a vegetarian - quite a challenge for Japanese cuisine - and did a fair job of it. But for the best experience, you'll want to be able to eat...well, everything. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The baths were nice - great for a soak after a long day exploring.

United KingdomNot a single bad thing to say about Fukashiso!
This was such a lovely place to stay. The staff were really friendly and attentive, even though we don't speak Japanese. Everything was personalised and we were made to feel very welcome. The food was amazing. The onsen were really nice, and we could book a private onsen at no extra cost. Really recommend staying here, every detail of the place is beautifully thought out. Also there is a shuttle bus to/from Matsumoto station which is really helpful as it is a little way out of town.

NetherlandsLocation is a bit far by foot from the station with heavy luggage. But they will pick you up from the station if you let them know: excellent service so no worries at all! 😁
Excellent and affordable (compared to other Ryokan) place to sleep. Lovely rooms, three baths (man, woman, family). Book dinner with them! Such delicious food, each dish a picture to the eye. The service explains in your own language what you are eating, using the phone. So cute. You can be picked up from the station if you consult with the Ryokan (is a bit too far away to walk). In the evening you can have a drink in a cute place inside opposite the reception, which is nice because there is not very much around.

United StatesMy friends and I stayed here on very short notice after the shinkansen service was suspended and we had to divert through Nagano. We're very happy we did! The building itself is very tidy and homey! The bathing facilities were very comfortable and clean! The breakfast was beyond delicious! The staff is exceptionally welcoming and very kind (they even gave us a ride to the nearby bus station to drop off our luggage, then dropped us off at Matsumoto Castle)! I could go on and on about the staff and their hospitality. We know VERY little Japanese but their English was amazing and they did a great job explaining the amenities to us! The surrounding area is very quiet and beautiful! They are tucked inconspicuously in a small, suburban neighborhood and mountains surround the area. I cannot recommend this place enough and hope to stay here again in the future! If you are in the area, please do yourself a favor and stay here :)

Czech RepublicExcellent traditional ryokan run by a family for 4 generations. As a guest you are cared for with great attention even if you do not speak perfect Japanese. The most amazing and delicious dinner and rice wine we had in Japan, all cooked by the owner's family and carefully served. Even Madame owner came to greet us personally at the dinner. The rooms are neat, in traditional Japanese style with futons and excellent tea. The owner gave us a ride to the train station when we were leaving and we had a pleasant chat. Thank you for this memorable experience.
