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.).

AustraliaWe got an extremely warm welcome. Staff were so friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Fabulous bakery nearby. Great location near Nippori Station. Easy to get to from Narita Airport. The area isn't overly busy or touristy which was nice. Prepared beds for us while we went to dinner and cleaned when we were out during the day, including replacing towels. Room was compact but very comfortable and well-equipped. Would highly recommend a stay here.

SwitzerlandWalls are thin, but with earplugs it's okay. The bathroom is a cramped plastic cabin with a low ceiling (I'm 1.93m and it was just okay).
Very friendly and helpful staff, awesome traditional rooms and quiet neighborhood. Nippori (10 min) with airport connection and the traditional Yanaka quarter (15 min) are close by.

South AfricaThe service was excellent and the staff were incredibly friendly. We stayed for 2 nights. The room was a bit small but cozy and with air-conditioning. The location is not in central Tokyo so you will need to train around, however, the nearby station is within reasonable walking distance. Also, there is an incredible bakery that is a two-minute walk from here.

ItalyThe room and especially the bathroom/toilet were kinda small. The main problem I have with this structure is unfortunately not with the structure itself but the location: it's almost a kilometer away from Nippori station. The station is luckily served by Yamanote Line, but it is very inconvenient if you plan to use the subway (so if you plan to visit places like Shibuya, Shinjuku or Ginza often expect for every trip to take a while).
The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The room was a bit smaller than we expected and there wasn't a table or a wardrobe, but it was still very nice. Extremely clean structure with a daily towel change. Overall a very pleasant stay, the shared area was very nice and equipped with several amenities, but can be quite crowded at times.

United StatesNothing. Rooms are typical small but to be expected in Europe and Japan.
Amazing location 10 minutes from large nippori train station on Yamanote line, close to amazing coffee houses and restaurants. This place was so well cared for, clean modern and comfortable. The neighborhood is also quaint with nice restaurants and coffee houses nearby. We wished we could have stayed longer. Recommendation to new Tokyo visitors: don’t try to be right in Shibuya or Shinjuku, as long as it’s a stop on the key lines. It’s actually nice to get away from the crowds.

NetherlandsI don't have anything bad to say about Wagokoro. I guess that if you want a western style hotel with an English breakfast, and western furniture then this isn't the place for you.
Wagokoro guesthouse was a very nice Japanese style hotel that was a new experience to me. my room had Japanese Futons and a low table with pillows to sit down. The hotel was super clean and the staff were very nice and helpful. The Nippori area where the hotel is located is also a nice and quieter neighborhood that to me was nice to return to after a busy day in Tokyo.
