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.).

United KingdomThere is no window. Just a window you can’t see out of so poor natural light
Very good value for money. Near to metro station. Just a little out of the way but just means you have to walk a couple of blocks more. Hence good value I suppose. Good clean hotel. Spacious. Has washing machine in room. Good shower beds etc

ArgentinaThe sofa felt like very used and not in good condition. Had some stains. They should consider to change it. Also the apartment felt very closed and with not light.
The apartment is good but I think is a little bite pricey for the amenities and the sofa conditions.

New ZealandThere aren’t curtains on the windows, just a Japanese style screen, so a bit more light comes in in the morning but we got used to it pretty quick.
Tidy, well equipped apartment in a great central location for a reasonable price. The kids loved the bunk beds and everything was comfortable. It was great to have a fridge and laundry to keep on top of things while travelling.

United Statesa little far from the metro station and not many restaurants nearby. But it's in a quiet neighborhood, so it's a trade off.
The kids really like the bunk beds. We like the family style hotel room so the our family can stay in one room, which is much more fun and convenient. They also have a very small kitchen and in room washer. We didn't use those during our stay, but it would be very convenient if we stay longer.

IsraelNothing bad to say about the hotel - they really had everything taken care of.
Our family of five, including three young children, had an unforgettable stay at Mimaru Hotel Kyoto. The reception staff's kindness and helpfulness made us feel truly welcome. Despite the hotel's quiet location, it was conveniently close to Kyoto's main attractions, making it easy for us to explore with the kids. Returning to our comfy room with its thoughtful amenities after a day of adventures was a highlight for all of us. We highly recommend Mimaru Hotel for families seeking a perfect blend of tranquility and accessibility in Kyoto.

South AfricaWe didn’t mind cleaning every 4th day but when the room was cleaned the dishes were not washed and the bath was not cleaned.
Easy check-in. Beautifully decorated room- we had the Pokémon themed room. Well appointed amenities - really appreciated the washing machine with detergent, kitchenette and pyjamas. Best front desk service- all staff spoke and understood English very well and were super helpful making restaurant bookings, calling cabs, renting bikes. The room was very clean when we arrived. The 7 eleven was great to get eggs and bread to make a quick breakfast before exploring. We could walk to the manga museum, Nishiki Market and Nijo Castle but took transport to most places.

MalaysiaPillows were either too soft or too hard for me, but rest of my family members didn't have problem with it. Would have been good too if we could see out the room windows but it was locked and non-transparent.
Room was OK size for Japan standard, and it was super convenient to have the washer and dryer in the room itself. The hotel was very quiet and peaceful, and the front desk reception staff were superb with their service - always very patient and responding with a smile. Family mart and 7-11 were just within walking distance while the subway station was about 8 mins walk away on flat road.

United StatesLoved the Mimaru hotel apartment! Left Japan with a very good experience on two Mimaru properties. Had a Japanese apartment. Room is well done. A bit on the tight side once you open the three beds on the tatami, a bit hard to walk around. But it's great for kids. Beds are very comfortable and the rooms are well designed. The staff at the reception were very helpful. Special thanks to Kai for helping us figure out how to get concert tickets! Couldn't have done it without his help!!! Loved the area, convenient yet quiet and with lots of options for food nearby. Easy walk to subway and attractions.

AustraliaI had wish that the room was fully serviced everyday. Although the staff was very friendly i had wish they were more knowledgeable about kyoto’s point of interests, as when my partner and I had ask or some recommendation there were a bit unsure themselves. But other than that they have been very lovely
The location was top notch. Most of the sightseeing and shopping area was walking distance and there were plenty of public transport option around the area. I like the layout of the room as it provided us ample space in the living room for our luggages and space for us to eat dinner. The staff were very friendly and approachable too.
