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 KingdomLocation means either take the free shuttle bus with stops almost outside the hotel or walk. The hotel is about a 20 minutes walk into town, so on colder nights you'll need to wrap up for the walk back as the free bus will have stopped running.
The location is just a short walk to the first chair lift (slight incline but it is a ski resort). Nice quiet place to stay just on the edge of the town. The hot breakfast every morning had variety and the staff are excellent and very helpful which made my stay even more enjoyable.

AustraliaIt was all satisfactory for us.
SImple but well organised and run hotel. Facilities were easy and helpful like the Snow gear storage area. We loved the shuttle to and from the lift area and town. It made the location actually enjoyable being out of the main village area.

AustraliaAmazing snow stay. Easy access to the main gondola with accommodation providing a < 5 minute shuttle. Able to ski right back to the accommodation if feeling adventurous. Little walk to the main part of town/onsens/restaurants but very doable (< 15 minutes). Great breakfast with a different hot option each day and a (limited) continental breakfast. Looking forward to staying again.

AustraliaThe towels were a little thin but at least they dried overnight
We found this accommodation fantastic. We booked a family room as that was the only option left available which had a queen and single bed in it. The rooms were so spacious compared to other hotels in Japan! We had a kettle, cups and a mini fridge, a small seating area and plenty of storage so we were able to completely unpack. The bath was small and deep which was just perfect after a day on the slopes. The breakfast consisted of one hot option made to order and different every morning and continental choices with cereals, bread, croissants, ham, cheese, fruit etc. The coffee was great with an option of percolated or pods (small charge), hot chocolate and mixed tea bags. This was available all day at no extra charge. The bar was open from 4-9pm which offered bar snacks enough for a dinner if you didn’t want to go out. The Kaarage Chicken and Gyoza were fabulous! The free shuttle up to the ski field and into town was a fantastic bonus and the staff even went out of their way to collect us when we missed the last bus down off the mountain. The staff were all young, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The whole Resort had a laid back, stress-free vibe and we just loved it. We just wished we’d booked for two weeks instead of one!

AustraliaA comment rather than a negative as it didn’t bother us: Staff were helpful and polite when we approached them but could be indifferent, appearing like they perhaps did not want to be there. Not sure whether that was because it was the start of the snow season and there was no snow when we arrived. We enjoyed the dinner recommendation from the Aussie guy!
The Altitude had amazing views from our window. The room was clean and a good size. We enjoyed the walk into the village. We enjoyed having a cooked breakfast (a different meal was available each day) although it could be small for males who are out on the snow each day. We also appreciated the pickup/drop off to the Nozawa bus stop. We used the shuttle bus once into town one night but walked ourselves other times.
