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.).

AustraliaMake sure you turn the fridge on when you put food it it. We assumed it was on but realised the next morning that you have to turn it on at the PowerPoint (they leave them off to save power).
Great location, lovely breakfast and we loved the complementary cookies in our room on arrival. We also appreciated being able to leave our bags after check in so we could spend extra time exploring Nara. Good value for money.

SwedenHowever since the bathroom was on the smaller side, you had to stand in the tub while you showered. Which would've normally been completely fine if it wasn't for the fact that they hadn't cleaned the drain properly so you would have to stand in the water with the dirt that you'd just rinsed of...
The breakfast service was nice and quick and the meal itself while not the biggest, was still satisfying enough and the lady handling all of the orders was lovely and greeted you with a friendly smile even while under peak rush hour. There were a large variety of restaurants nearby to chose from, and you were also a 5-10 min walking distance away from the Nara deer park! The room was definitely sizeable enough for someone traveling solo, and there being a bathtub bathroom was welcoming surprise for sure!

AustraliaIt was all good. Internet wifi was perfect, breakfast was simple but very good.
Great location, so easy to locate from Nara Kinetsu station. Then only 5 minute walk to see the deer over the road at the park. Also the street area has so many options for dinner, and the street scape feels so inviting. It’s like a little China-town feel with lights, shops, cafes and restaurants but not too noisy.

MalaysiaIt certainly met my dreamy story-book notion of living on top of a Japanese bakery! It is a small boutique inn located along a charming pedestrian street lined with a few other cozy little cafes & shops selling souvenirs & pretty art pieces. We enjoyed the complimentary cookies & the simple breakfast of salad & a thick slice of pillowy shokupan bread with your choice of scrambled eggs, strawberry jam or red beans. Location is ideal - about 2-3 minutes walk from the Nara Kintetsu train station & a 20-minute walk from the Nara Deer Park. Once you step through the squeaky entrance door into the warmth of the cozy lobby & dining area, you are greeted by friendly staff who can speak English. While the room is basic, it is clean, cheerful, comfortable & big enough to fit our family of 4 with 4 carry-on luggage opened up. We also appreciated the luggage storage service & being able to borrow the hotel umbrellas, so that after check-out, we could further spend our slightly rainy day exploring beautiful Nara.
