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 KingdomI didn't have breakfast at the hotel because the restaurant was so busy that people had to queue outside. I had a "Sakurajima view" room but this turned out to be a waste of money as the volcano was shrouded in cloud for all three days that I stayed.
Compared to Sheratons I've stayed in in other countries, this one is especially luxurious, with a large room and a big comfortable bed. The hotel onsen is very pleasant with an outside section (though no view because it faces a main road). There is a choice of restaurants - I ate at Satsumagma which was outstandingly good.

United StatesThe customer service was amazing! My son left his wallet in a taxi and the hotel staff hinted it down from the taxi company and mailed it the same day to us in Kyoto. The onsen was very clean and warm. Rooms were large by Japanese standards and beautiful views. Would definitely stay again!

SingaporeNot as centrally located as preferred but the shuttle makes up for this
The room was very spacious for Japan standards, the foot spa was a great way to end the day and the breakfast was a good spread! Whilst its not centrally located per se, there is a free shuttle that brings you to and fro the main station so that's a bonus.

CanadaThe onsen was nice, though too busy and the noise from the restaurant terrace was noticeable in the outside pool which was a bit annoying. It's a bit too expensive.
Amazing view to Sakurajima, we were literally glued to the window 😄very comfortable bed, quality materials, enough packing space, spotless clean new room. Their Udon was my absolute favorite udon that I've ever eaten. Some employees can speak English very well and they were very kind and helpful. We enjoyed our stay very much, thank you!

SingaporeI wished the hotel would provide the appropriate gear like a yukata for guests than to ask them to wear their own everyday clothes to the “onsen”.
Being new, Sheraton Kagoshima has the latest in facilities. The room we were in was spacious and had a spectacular view of the volcano Sakurajima. Best of all, it has an onsen that uses genuine mineral water with enclosed and open pools.
