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.).

AustraliaThis was an awesome place to stay while we visited Kyoto. The staff were very friendly and easy to communicate with. The room and the gardens were perfect. Loved the fact there was a convenience store next door and we had a great view of Toji temple. We will definitely be staying here again during our next trip to Kyoto. 🇦🇺 🇯🇵🙏

We loved staying here. The room was spacious as well as being very clean and comfortable. We loved the breakfast delivery each morning. The food was delicious. Hairdryer, shampoo, conditioner, soap, dressing gowns and slippers were provided. There was also a kitchen area with a kettle and tea bags. We didn't use it, but there was also a washing machine in the bathroom. The hotel has a great rooftop, looking over Toji Temple pagoda, which is really special at night. I'd highly recommend this hotel and the bus stop is just 2 mins away.

ThailandThe location is fine, but its proximity to the main road results in some noise at night. In my view, the place lacks environmental friendliness. They excessively utilize plastic for breakfast packaging, prioritizing aesthetics over pollution concerns.
The venue boasts exquisite Japanese-themed decor, offering an immersive experience. The rooms are generously sized and come with all amenities included. Additionally, parking is complimentary.

AustraliaWasnt really anywhere to eat or not in the near vacinity anyway. A little away from downtown kyoto but only one stop to Toji station from Kyoto station. The tv could have more english channels or a streaming facility to watch english shows. Our room was on the ground floor and was noisy in the mornings as staff/people were up early and couldnt really sleep in if u wanted too.
Loved the traditional Japanese feel and traditional touches. Love the washer/dryer facility. Well stocked with toiletries,slippers and robes. Loved the size of the room and that there were cupboards to put clothes away and store suitcases if needed . Also liked that we could cook our own meals if we wanted to. Liked the bento box for breakfast option although i didnt end up eating it.

Stunning lobby/interior of a traditional ryokan. Large, comfortable rooms with a full kitchenette and washing machine/dryer combination. Separate shower room attached to the bathroom. Breakfast is delivered to your room and you get 4 choices each day (must reserve by 3pm the previous day). All options are delicious. We loved our stay, and the view of Toji Temple from the roof was a fantastic bonus!
