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.).

Hong KongThere is nothing that's dislike about. A little suggestion. We were staying on Mother's Day. It would be good if my wife being a mother will receive a small gift except for a note for celebration of the day.
Location is excellent and convenient to visit the tourist spots. We didn't take breakfast in the hotel and cannot make comments.

United StatesThe only "complain" I have may be different from room to room. The toilet seat was too hot and the bidet was too strong even at lowest level, and the water jet was a little cold.
Great location, next to Kyoto with TONS of food options, plus trains, buses and taxi to many parts of the the city. Comes with western style and Japanese style breakfast! We tried both and they were great.

Hong Kong1. Choices of Japanese style breakfast unclear. 2. Long queue for coffee machine in breakfast. 3. No laundry service. 4. Not much view of sight from room. 5. No covered access from JR Kyoto station -- clumsy if this is raining day. But these are very very minor points. I still love this hotel very much. Smart choice.
1. Excellent location, 2 minutes walk to Kyoto JR station 2. Zen style design. 3. Adequate space. 4. Quiet and reflective environment. 5. Choices of breakfast -- both Western semi-buffet and Japanese style set. 6. Staff are nice (when compared with those working in Century)

United StatesThe Western style breakfast could provide options of greek yogurts, low-carb granola, nuts, and berry fruits. The Cafe could opens sooner for those who don't have a breakfast option, or those who want a small breakfast option. An included visit to the Spa for guests with multi-night stays would be nice.
Very well located next to Kyoto Station (main transport hub), nice area of city with lots of places to shop and eat, and convenient to take underground, trains, or buses to major sites. Hotel offers two types of breakfast, Japanese or Western. The Japanese breakfast is definitely best in my opinion.

GermanyBreakfastroom at three of three mornings very crowded and loud. Waitingtime until we got a table up to 20 minutes. Breakfast itself was good, but in regard of the roomtax less in choice. Could be a bit more western style food in the western area - the hotel offers a separate japanese Buffet. Rooms are perfect and we would stay again but without taking Breakfast.
Very comfortable large rooms with fantastic beds and layers. Perfect located to get very easily everywhere.
