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.).

AustraliaThis seems to be a businessman’s hotel and though it was more than adequate the atmosphere was a little sterile for holiday makers.
Very close to the Castle and many food options.

TaiwanThe sink in the bathroom was super low, even though I am not tall (155cm) at all, but I also felt it was really low to use.
It’s only 5 minutes walk to Kumamoto castle, and you can see the castle through the room window. They provides two types of breakfast: Japanese and westerners style for customers to choose. Parking just right by the hotel, but you need to pay ¥1000 for one night. (Not really sure if you can go in and out. )

NigeriaNo comment. Nothing to say really.
Staff was very polite. Breakfast is good. The dinner were very good. Great size room and bed. There was one minor mistake they did which was showing us the wrong parking space and they redunded us the money as soon as they realised. I had other experience elsewhere.

IndonesiaIts not about the staff or the property but the other guess (Japanese) the rude man who sit with his wife. I sit not far from them for breakfast. He talk to waitress with high tone, and complain to the other waitress about the food in front of the other guess. There was me and 1 man at other table. Its not just 1 or 2 times but more, he call the waitress with un normal intonation and arogant tone and attitude. I felt my face going red with angry toward his unacceptable attitude. When the food come i ask the witress if i can move to other table. The waitress so polite and lovely. And i sit at the table far from the man. I am not blame anyone, but i dont want to see or feel the same way again in the future. The rudesness of the man make my heart hurt, and if he is the regular guess of this property i think i will choose other property to stay. Thankyou.

TaiwanImpeccable service, large and very clean room. You really feel that the hotel staff want the customer to have everything they need. Geographically, hotel very close to the castle and busy shopping streets. Accessible in 25 minutes by tram and a short walk from Kumamoto train station. High-performance WiFi. Nothing to say, it was perfect ;)

AustraliaThe building itself is quite old, but all the facilities are modern and function well. I'm not really complaining.
Superb location, right in the centre of Kumamoto with the Castle across the street! They also allowed the top floor to be used for castle viewing for guests. The staff were excellent and helpful. The room was exceptionally clean. Overall great!

The location is nearby Kumamoto castle and the shopping street Kamitori & Shimotori. The rooms are very clean. The Japansese or western set-meal breakfast is delicious.
