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.).

We were so lucky to have found Nachiya- such a beautiful place in a quiet, beautiful area of Kyoto. Our host was so helpful and accommodating. He recommended local restaurants local and areas to visit. We were lucky enough to visit one and had the most incredible meal. We loved the traditional Japanese style of the accommodation; the peace and quiet; the location; the facilities and the space it had to offer.

Wonderful four nights at Nachiya. Mamoru-san is a kind and helpful host who really cares for his guests. He communicated quickly, answered our questions, provided info and recommendations and forwarded our luggage for us upon our departure. It was great to have so much space after small hotel rooms in other locations. Lovely location - walking distance to Kinkaku-ji and just around the corner from Kazariya (which you simply must visit for grilled mochi with white miso sauce) and really good access to buses and metro. Full kitchen, comfy beds, lots of amenities, beautiful furnishings. Highly recommended.

AustraliaBeing a local residential area, it was hard to find restaurants within a short walk.
The host made us feel very welcomed upon arrival. He recommended some local restaurants and places to visit, which we appreciated. The property was beautiful, very traditional Japanese-style home with modern amenities. Local streets were quiet at night so we slept well. It was also located in a convenient location with access to many buses. The host also helped us to book a taxi as we had quite a bit of luggage, which was very kind of him. Would definitely book again!

The house was very spacious, clean and nicely decorated. Individual air conditioner in each room so it is easy to adjust temperature for different room. Especially love the rock garden around the house where you can enjoy the view while having a cup of tea. Mamoru san was a very helpful and welcoming host. We would definitely come back when we visit Kyoto again.

United StatesThe owner, Mamoru-san was extremely helpful. I had a health complications on our last day and he even took me to the clinic. He gives you a tablet that has all house appliance manuals and many sites of interest around Kyoto, including good restaurants and his recommended places and restaurants. I stayed in 4 places in Japan and this one was the best, by far. Extremely recommended, especially if you're looking for that old style Japanese house experience.

United StatesNothing really.
The property was absolutely amazing. The house was kept in impeccable condition and it just felt incredibly authentic. Outside of the property, the owners Mamaru and Masako were honestly the best hosts that I have ever encountered in all the times that I have stayed abroad. The two of them were extremely attentive and friendly during the entire duration of our trip, with Mamaru sending me messages if there was anything that he could do to better accommodate us. At the end of our trip he even called us a cab so that we wouldn’t have to deal with Uber or the city bus. We had an excellent time at Nachiya and will definitely try to book this place again when we do inevitably return to Kyoto.

Nachiya is located in a quaint Kyoto neighborhood with easy access to public transportation and near some of the city's premiere tourist sights. The traditional Japanese furnishings were stunning and the facilities are very functional. The photos don't do it justice. Mamoru went above and beyond to assist us during our stay. Highly recommended.

AustraliaOnly one thing was the lack of a hand rail down the three steps from the bathroom to the bedroom.
We wanted to stay in a traditional Japanese accommodation called a Kyo-machiya, and the three of us loved the ambience.We had space and privacy. There were ample amenities and kind touches, making it feel like we were in a home rather than an accommodation. The mossy gardens and the giant mossy rock in the inner garden (tsuboniwa) were a joy to look out upon, especially when it was raining. After our initial consultation with our host, we never saw him again until we were leaving. He was also only an email away and ordered a taxi for us as we were leaving.

United KingdomNothing everything was amazing and clean
Lovely traditional style japanese house, beautiful setting and only a 5 minute walk from the daisen-in and daitoku-ji temples. Lots of bus stops near by so you can get places. Buses are also quite cheap only 230 yen flat fee for a one way trip (approx £1.50 gbp at time of writing). So even though this place is about 30 mins bus journey from kyoto station it doesn't matter because it won't necessarily cost more.
