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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

CanadaThe staff does not enter your room during the stay, which means you need to set the futon bed up yourself. The place seemed dated and in need of an update. It wasn't really dirty, but worn. There were a lot of flies in the bathroom. There was a note about flies in the welcome booklet, but it was written in such broken English that we did not understand what it said, something about calling the front desk I think, but we ended up killing all of them ourselves. If you come here, get the dinner too, because there isn't really anywhere nearby to get a meal. We tried going to a place next door, but it was closed early without notice. Had to eat cup noodles as a last resort.
We arrived very late, at 11:30pm, but the reception desk was still open and accommodating. There are 2 different baths, both with indoor and outdoor pools, and they switch between male and female depending on the time of day, so you can try out both. Enjoyed a free popsicle after the bath and played ping pong in the games room in a yukata. If you're planning to walk to other attractions in Nikko like Edo Wonderland, this was one of the closest affordable hotels. Breakfast was a buffet, but make sure you get down there on time.

AustraliaOk so the down side this is a traditional Japanese Hotel and the bedding reflects that , my suggestion would be it’s time to upgrade their sleeping mats as they were rock hard the floor was better. The distance from Nikko’s temples is a little further then I thought so that was on me.
The food and the staff were amazing and it was clean, the onsen was marvellous could’ve stayed in there all day. We unfortunately did not get to take advantage of all they had to offer which was quite a lot.

AustraliaHotel is a bit dated and the 10 minute walk from Tobu World Square Station might not suit everyone. Slightly older facilities and a walk didnt bother us (we sent our luggage ahead).
We really enjoyed our stay. It appears to have a predominantly Japanese clientele, but staff have a bit of English. We had a great view over the river, breakfast buffet was delicious, onsen was great, private onsen (no extra cost) was easy to book. 400 metres to a supermarket. My daughters thought sleeping on tatami mats was like having a big sleepover in the loungeroom.

IndiaThe room was clean, also the staff spoke hindi so it was easier for me to get by. 3 to 5 alcohol and local delicacies were there which was great. Even the buffet was good, apart from the tempura which lacked flavor the rest of the food and alcohol was very good. Also the view from the room was magnificent. Overall good experience

ThailandThe way to bus stop going back to the kinugawaonsen station is confusing, because the bus has to make a U-turn to pick up. The hotel staff must be careful to tell the detail of the bus stop more than this.
nice dinner and breakfast, some staff are very nice and kind.

United KingdomThe hotel is nice and i realy liked that we could have a private onsen.Theres a massage chair with books to read down stairs as well as drinks you can get at certain times. The staff were plesant and helpful. Dinner was lovely and i realy enjoyed it along with breakfast however i only managed to have 2 of the 4 meals for our stay as unfortunatly i became very ill.My partner requested to bring me some fruit when he went to get his own dinner as i couldnt move more than a couple feet without vomiting and this wasnt a problem for the staff. On check out i apologised to the staff as im sure other guests must have heard me vomiting much to my embarassment. They were naturaly concerned and asked if i was ok. I still felt ill but managed to get to kyoto that day without any emergency stops ( i did have a sick bag all the way there😅)

United StatesI saw hair on the futon when I was putting the covers. I guess that's why you put covers on it but I hope they at least disinfected the futon. 😬

United StatesThe futons are a bit thin, so sleeping on them was uncomfortable.
The location is a 10 minute walk from the train station. With heavy luggage this can be a bit tough. The staff is very kind and converses in Japanese (not English). Breakfast was wonderful. Onsen was wonderful. Booked dinner buffet as well, which was very tasty (must reserve at front desk ahead of time). Enjoyed the game room they had on site. Front desk staff very helpful and called us a taxi.
