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.).

GreeceThe room was at the back side making it dark and the walls in many parts were damaged most probably from luggages.
Well located hotel in Kyoto, the staff was helpful and helped us to send our luggages to the next destination without a problem. The rooms was spacious enough for 3 people with big luggages.

PortugalOur room was really small. It would have been ok if we didn’t have a large bag with us. We had to jump over it every time we opened it and we would either block the bathroom door or the room door. Keep this in mind if you’re traveling with a lot of luggage and book a larger room than the standard.
The hotel is well located, close to the metro line and several bus lines. Breakfast was well served and the room had everything we needed.

AustraliaThe breakfast was decent but maybe add cereals to the menu. Cereals are normally on every other hotel breakfast menu. The bed also could be more comfy (personal opinion - i prefer a softer mattress, this was bit firm).
Short walk to Shiju Station, has a great lil restaurant next door (must try), the bathroom facilities of the room were amazing - really powerful shower and high tech toilet. Airconditioning & cleanliness was good as well. Easy checkin & checkout process. Friendly staff.

IndonesiaThey don’t provide a mineral water inside the room. We have to buy it on the vending machine (cheaper than the one in store, it’s 100 JPY for one bottle). One night when their vending machine’s water was out of stock, I called the receptionist and asked them any solution for this problem. The male receptionist said I can buy it in the reception desk on the 1st floor, he claimed that he couldn’t assist to go up and bring it to my room. And the bottle water they sell in reception desk is smaller than the one in the vending machine with the same price.
Very strategic location, as it near to subway station and a lot good restaurants. Near to anywhere by walk, subway, taxi and bus. Very clean.

MalaysiaPerhaps the bathtub water outlet could be made better so that the water doesn't overflow out from the drainage area, causing a mini 'flood' in the bathroom floor
Great location. Located not far from Shijo station (Karasuma line). Very easy to commute from the Kyoto station (just 2 stops away). A good thing is that this section of subway line isn't very busy too, so it was really good for bringing luggages. The hotel's location is quite strategic with tons of convenient stores nearby to choose from (lawson, 7E, etc). You can even walk to the famous Nishiki Market from here (just a 5-10min walk--depending on your speed). Easy to get on subway and commute to famous sites. Check in process was a breeze and glad to have so many freebies to take to the room -- tea, shower towel, bath salt, amenities, etc. Room was superb and very comfy. Breakfast was great too with a variety of selection.
