How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The service was great. Lady at the counter offered to answer any questions I had when she saw me staring hard at the brochures at hand when dropping off my luggage before check-in time. She also suggested a couple of options for lunch when asked, which included soba -- which was what I went for and it was delicious. ありがとう！（名前覚えてないすみません）

The amenities are very modest compared to the high price we paid during our stay. There's not even a welcome drink of tea on arrival. No other amenities like toothbrush or bath salt offered like most decent hotels in Japan. We wanted to support the hotel business by eating in, but the restaurant was said to be fully booked for dinner, although we hardly saw anyone at the time.
The building facility and the rooms were nicely designed. The hotel is modern, warm, and cozy.

The dinner was simple and good. We had Pork shabu... and a small buffet breakfast that was good.. a mix of western and japanese.. So its good to book with dinner and breakfast. Hotel is just 2mins walk away from a big drug store that sells everything... .glad I chose this hotel.. as i only needed a place to rest and stopover for my long driving trip from west to east of kyushu.

Very good. Spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated large room and bath tub. Right on the Main Street for food and shopping. The staff even helped recommend where to eat.

Minimum facilities - restaurant is v small so they cannot accept many for dinner (must book before arrival and even then you may get a table as there is not enough room for all guests - not great as there are few food options in the town at night on certain days of the week). Don't bother with breakfast - v few tables so often have to wait for one; Japanese buffet not great, identical every day; not cheap). Not really what we expected for the price. Hotel architect seems to have been more concerned with beauty than practicality for guests (there is an enormous empty space for the vestibule, part of which would have been better used by making the restaurant a bit bigger).
Well located in centre of town; comfortable rooms.

Very easy to find and near to 高千穗神社. The hotel is very caring that they provided cushion for us when we watched the dance in the temple. The hotel staff is very friendly and show us where to eat and which restaurants need reservations so that we won't go to somewhere that they won't serve.

The dinner menu in the restaurant is very limited. Maybe due to low season many of the surrounding restaurant around the hotel and eatery are closed or only take reservations. Hope the hotel has plans to increase the food selections.
Everything was good.
