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.).

BelgiumThere is nothing to reproach, really. If I really have to find a point that could be improved, the communal spaces are quite limited: there are a few seats in the lobby at the ground floor, but little else. The microwave oven is also located at the ground level, so if you decide to dine in your room, you have to walk around the lobby with your food. Still, these are small details, I would not count them as problems.
I spent there 7 nights. The hotel location is very convenient, a short walk from Karasuma Oike metro station, which gives access to both metro lines. Close to various kombini, it has an in-house Matsuya outlet, in case you want to eat something. Service is very friendly, and I could communicate effectively even with my limited Japanese. The room was immaculate, and correctly sized -- this is Japan, after all, and rooms are small in general; that being said, this one was very reasonable and quite comfortable. I enjoyed every day of my stay. Personally, I think it is very good value for money.

ChinaI didn’t check the window? When I went in it was already so dark. I forgot to set an alarm, so I overslept( 1000%my fault). I didn’t complain at all.
Their room size is roughly as small as other hotels, but their room is just so well-designed in a way that the space is utilized much more efficiently. The shape of the desk is unconventional so that we have more desk space. The couch even has a little table for your drinks. The bed is so comfortable that I overslept lol and missed half day of my trip lol. I love the bathroom too. Anyway, this hotel is perfect for solo travellers. The only overall downside for me is perhaps the location(8/10 still) But the closest subway station is also a major subway station, which empowers a lot more possibilities. Check out time i believe was 12 noon, which was nice.

NetherlandsBreakfast has 4 options, each like a menu, with a few things. And most of those things I didn't touch, so I thought it was a bit of a waste. But it was a good breakfast.
The staff was very nice and friendly. The amenities were also quite nice as is standard in Japan. The room was as they described it in the options and pictures. The hotel is located at walking distance from train and subway stations which is very handy.

United StatesThe room is really really small. Staff didn’t provide extra services like helping me make a reservation at restaurant.
Good location, a short walk to the subway. The bathroom is modern. Facilities are nice and clean. There’s on-site washer and dryer which worked great. Staff is friendly enough. There’s a cafeteria adjacent to the hotel which is very convenient when restaurants turned me down (table for 1 at 6pm) because I didn’t have reservation.

LithuaniaThe room was a bit dusty and smelled bad. Actually the whole part of the hotel where we stayed smelled bad. The smell did not vanish during the 4 days we stayed there. It decreased a bit if the window was kept open, but the maids used to close it and at night we couldn't leave it open because the wind blew straight to our heads and mosquitoes appeared. If you choose Western style breakfast, they give you 1 enormously thick toast! It would be way better if they sliced it in 2. When they prepare your breakfast they call your number in Japanese, although you are the only one waiting for the meal. But they look at you anyway.
Spaceous bathroom, a lot of bathroom amenities, rather conveniently placed to visit Kyoto (some 450 m. from a non-JR metro station), breakfast included (Japanese option with salmon and a raw egg was really good😉). Free water in the hallway. The room is cleaned everyday (even the cups are washed!), free robes.

IndiaWe know that in Japan rooms are small but it was too congested. Although I was alone, it was difficult to open a big suitcase. Compared to this, my hotel room in Tokyo had much more space. There are many things kept in the room which is not needed by every traveller. Some should be removed to make space. I couldn’t understand one thing, I had to leave the hotel at 5 am and was little worried whether I would be able to get a taxi so early in the morning or not. Despite my repeated requests, the hotel staff couldn’t book a taxi for me. Anyways, I got an Uber cab in the morning.
The property is in a quiet area and well maintained. Teramachi street which is a huge shopping area is just 7-8 minutes walking. Even Nishiki market is less than a kilometre. It’s just 300-400 metres from the subway so very convenient. Rooms have all the facilities needed for a comfortable stay. The best part, I was supposed to stay there for five nights but because of some urgency, I had to cut short the visit and I could stay only three nights. I was unable to modify the booking because I was already at the hotel reception and the cancellation time was over. The hotel staff itself modified my booking and charged me for three nights only. I am really thankful and grateful to them.
