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 StatesThe hotel is older so you can see that the rooms are a little worn. The room amenities could be more generous. The onsen is well stocked so the expectation is that you'd use the amenities there but if you don't go to the onsen - there isn't much in the room. We had a sliver of soap and shampoo/conditioner in a tiny packet. Hotel is perched on a hill so it's an uphill walk from the bus stop. Not a problem for us but someone with mobility issues may find that challenging. Wish they provided some area/attraction information/maps in English.
Conveniently located next to a bus stop (Hashiriyu) and across the street from Shirahama Beach. The room was very spacious and the view was amazing. The futons were comfortable (you can get extra padding from the closet). The onsen was fabulous and open until midnight. I went at 11:30pm and enjoyed it by myself. Breakfast buffet had an extensive variety of items so you can surely find something you like. The 2nd floor has an amazing area for kids as well as a full "beverage station" with hot/cold drinks and tables/chairs to relax in. Staff does not speak much English but they always greet you when you leave and return and will do their best to try and answer questions and held our luggage after checkout time. Housekeepers were quick and friendly.

Hong KongOnsen floor has new renovating which looks cool and chill (2/F) However those Japanese style rooms looks very old and dark, especially the bath tube looks creepy but the room charge very expensive with usd400/per night.
Staff are very helpful breakfast not bad the location is close to the beach they have free parking on your stay

Chinawill be better if room can be cleaned, ie. collecting used bottles and tea set when putting the beds.
