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 KingdomPlease note this is located in the historic district so slightly far (30 min walk) from the high street, if you want to go out late at night this may be an issue for you (it wasn't for us)
Large, clean and comfortable room with a small garden view, in a quiet street from the historic district. The staff was very helpful and accommodating.

CroatiaSpent only 1 night. We should have stayed for 2-3. 😁
The district itself is beautiful and so was the accommodation. The interior is a mix of modern and traditional which we like. We wish we had a longer stay and would happily come back again.

FinlandGreat location and the area was peaceful during evening and night. Beautiful historical buildings and streets. The room was excellent and it was renovated for modern comforts but they kept the traditional vibe. Lots of great tourist spots close by and within walking distance. Breakfast was good. Would totally recommend to anyone who would like to experience a night in an old Japanese house.

BulgariaI wish there was a common bath like in other typical ryokans (but there's a bath and shower in the room, so no big deal); also - there is no dinner served (but they can recommend and reserve good places for you nearby - I recommend the tempura one!)
Perfect location in the heart of the Higashi Chaya geisha/old town district; very helpful and accomodating staff, with good English; very comfortable room and bed

United StatesWould like to have had a regular coffee maker in the room, but this is a very minor item.
The size of the suite was amazing even by American size standards. We stayed in the "Sen" room upstairs. The location was phenomenal, being in the heart of the walking district and actually on a narrow alley with no vehicles. It was like going back in time. The bed was large and comfortable, and it was nice to have the full kitchen with washing machine as well as a large tatami room for sitting while looking down the alley. It was a very quiet area of the neighborhood. Operations of the HVAC and other features were all well explained in English. The front desk hostess was very friendly and spoke excellent English. She prepared a wonderful breakfast that more than satisfied our western appetites. My wife was born and raised in Osaka, and we've visited Japan eight times in the past 20 years, but this was one of the very best experiences we have ever had. We wish to return in the future with our adult children and rent all three guest rooms of the house.
