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.).

New ZealandThe traditional style curtains don't block much light.
Lovely breakfast with great coffee and juice machines, pastries, scrambled eggs, corn flakes, yoghurt and a few other extras. Free arrival drink, free washing machine usage! The tatami mats in the room are a nice touch too.

NetherlandsOur room was next to the elevator, we could (too) easily hear when someone arrived late at night. The room also is about as small as it gets.
Great location, public transport and convenience stores next door, clean and comfortable, room is small but has everything you need for a short stay, great value for money.

JapanThe room was small for comfort but good for a short stay. The amenities are available on the 2nd floor (reception desk) and not in the room.
Easy to find with a good location. Close to Gion street and Kiyomizudera. The staff are friendly and speak English. Continental breakfast with limited choices. They keep your luggage after check out and you can also borrow umbrellas for rainy days.

United KingdomWhen I was here last, breakfast used to be japanese traditional style breakfast (2019) now it is contentinetal. Whilst the breakfast is good as it is. The old breakfast used to be far superior.
I have stayed at this hotel on three occasions and everytime it meets the standards I have come to expect. The staff are always making the best effort to serve and make sure that everything is correct. It is very good value for money and is conveniently located near convenience shops and a very good ramen restaurant nearby.

BulgariaWe arrived late in the evening after a very long day. Although we booked a room for three, there were only two beds fitted with sheets and blankets. The breakfast is very basic and practically the same each morning. Once we asked the reception to help us with Japanese to make a reservation for a restaurant, but they refused.
Laundry machines available free of charge (only detergent cost).

NetherlandsI have a spider on my bed or anywhere in my room. I do not care at all because it is kind of happy and wealth bringer as my mother says. However, it is still a bit wired. I keep it alive until I left.
Perfect location; lots of facilities more than other 3 stars hotel, such as shoes dryer, handy maps, free welcome drinks, bath sponge, hair brush rather than simple comb. Very comfortable small sofa besides tatami cushion.
