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 location in Hakuba was good and close to the mountains we were traveling to. They have good onsen outdoor/indoor with a sauna, rather small in size, nothing special.
The staff knew zero English. There were absolutely no food facilities available. Even though our booking said we could have pay-for breakfast at the facility, they said it wasn’t available. Also no dinner available even for pay. We drove around the city for an hour looking for an open place to eat. All the places listed on Yelp and Google maps as open were not. It was a ghost town and staff was completely not helpful and not considerate of that.
Thank you very much for choosing to stay with us and for taking the time to share your valuable feedback. We sincerely apologize that we were unable to meet your expectations in several aspects during your stay and for any inconvenience this may have caused. Regarding dinner service, due to the procurement and preparation process, we operate on a “reservation-in-advance” system. However, we deeply regret that our explanation was insufficient and may have led to misunderstanding. Concerning language support, we will continue to enhance staff training so that our international guests may also feel comfortable and at ease throughout their stay. Hakuba Village, while blessed with rich natural surroundings, has limited dining options depending on the season or day of the week. We will therefore strive to provide more accurate and helpful information on nearby restaurants for our guests going forward. We take your comments to heart and will use them to further improve our services. Thank you once again for staying with us. KAYANO

For over $A2000 per night, this was an absolute rip-off. It’sa very nice place, but they did not clean our room once during the week. How absurd! Location was far from ideal.

Verified reviewSuper nice staff and very very nice onsen that you can use for free. We even came back to use the onsen when we stayed in a different hotel. A bit outside, so you need a car but very quiet and nice area. Rooms are simple but definitely enough. I would always come back again, mostly for the nice staff and onsen. Room was a bit too pricey for what it was,

Verified reviewHorio-san and staff were exceptional- nothing was a problem during our stay - On check out they offered a lift to Escal Plaza when a large maxi taxi wasn’t available - the combined staff helped us pack and waved farewell like a family departure. You will be well looked after. Warm rooms - comfortable beds…After a day’s skiing settle into what is regarded as the BEST onsen in the district. Very good restaurant serves Barbecue and Shabu Shabu - Wide choice for breakfast - very very short 40 metre walk to shuttle bus stop to skifields - Very close to local shops and two other restaurants (Ramen) Ryujin are currently adding a new accommodation wing with a number of new luxury private onsen rooms. Its intimate - private - not crowded. You get very personal service. I plan on returning in future.
perhaps the only issue for some people is the location requires catching the shuttle buses to Goryu slopes - Ryujin is close (takes maybe 3/4 minutes drive to reach Escal Plaza) - Buses come 30min and hourly intervals - but dont miss the last bus back from slopes at 5:30pm. In any case taxis are usually easy to call.

It would be tough to get around without a car here. Most of the bars/restaurants were a bit away from the hotel. If you can't sleep on a firm mattress I definitely wouldn't recommend staying here.

Verified reviewThe Onsen being on site was a very nice touch for relaxation. It has a lovely outdoor portion and with the snow on the ground, it is hard to beat. The staff were also very friendly and helped us make multiple reservations including dinner and a taxi to depart.
The location was mediocre if you want to go skiing or snowboarding. You can either walk 20-25 minutes uphill to Goryu resort or you can take two separate busses that don’t seem to have a regular timetable. Also, there is not much evening dining in close (less than 15 minutes) walking distance.
