How guest reviews work
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 use a weighted review system which means that 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewThe hotel is a beautiful old hotel. Facilities are old but excellent. Breakfast was unbelievably good. The place is over 200 years old, and has hidden underground tunnels which made it feel like an adventure in a haunted hotel. The onsen facilities are numerous, huge, and well worth it. The town is cute and probably amazing during the season.
The town was a bit abandoned since it was only a few weeks after the ski season ended. I would probably go again and stay even longer if I went during the Summer, Fall, or Winter. My timing was just not great (early April).

Verified reviewGreat onsen , location , good food & good access to Ski area & restaurants
No hot water in an ensuite room & kerosine heater smell. The hot water boiler has been broken for years & never fixed.

Verified reviewIf you're skiing in Myoko you can't go wrong with this place. It's a hybrid western/japanese style hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable. 3 of us shared a room with 2 beds and a good sized tatami. It was a little pricier than some basic Ryokans we stayed at, but considering the quality of breakfast, the number of hot springs on sight, and the free shuttle from the door, it ended up being pretty reasonable. Avoid trying to eat western style foods at the breakfast or you will surely be disappointed. We are advanced skiers and enjoyed Kanko for 4 days straight, 2 on the mountain after 108cm of fresh pow, and 2 skinning up above the top chair once that fresh snow was skied out. Despite what the web indicates, there are tonnes of touring options from the top of Kanko. We could have just bought a single up pass the last couple days, though being able to use the top lift to extend your ski down is pretty useful. Be careful trying to ski back to the hotel at the end of the day, it's very easy to overshoot the town by quite a long way and add a 45 minute hike when your legs are already rubber. If you get it right you can ski pretty much right to the door of the hotel. Ping pong table was great. We were feeling pretty cheap at the end, and had a few suppers on our table in the room, followed up by hot springs and ping pong. . . no need to leave and spend more money!
Wifi kinda sucked, but we were in the annex (cheaper) area of the hotel. There are many networks around the hotel and none of them went very far. Western style food in the breakfast was bad, but the japanese options more than made up for it. Try everything!

Verified reviewQuirkiness of the artwork and decor. Staff were so friendly. The BEST Onsen - to sit under a cherry tree with snow falling was magical. So handy to the ski lifts and village
It was a bit tired looking and in need of some upgrades. Heating was a bit noisy and you couldn’t drink the water.
