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):
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.).

IndiaI would have liked to see a gym and a machine to take fresh drinking water. I dislike using bottled water but had no choice as the tap water tin the washroom had a bit too much chlorine, at least it tasted like that!
Location of the hotel is great. Extremely convenient for all activities and at the same time very quite. The breakfast was good too. Though it gets a bit monotonous after two to three days. Adding some more variety will help.

The hotel is conveniently located close to all the fun shopping areas. Yet, it is not noisy and still maintains that peaceful/relaxed feeling. There are also heaps of restaurants around, and is only 5-7 minutes walk from the biggest train station in Kobe. This is definitely worth the money and has great value. I specifically like the fact that the room size is big (comparing to other Japanese hotels)

United StatesYou need more Correct signage in English for your non-Japanese guests. Some signage was incorrect English and most difficult to understand. Japan now is a well sought after place for foreigners to visit, so need much more signage in English for them is definitely needed. I understand you are more a business hotel- like facility but it would nicer if you could offer dome more assistance with luggage help when checking out. I called the front desk asking for help with luggage for checkout as I am a senior citizen and had 2 big suitcases that I needed help with but was told, I could only get help if there was enough staff. That makes absolutely no sense at all. You are in the service industry so assisting elderly guests with heavy luggage should not be a problem. O One more thing, there was a Chinese family on my floor who had a young child who was playing in the hallway, running up and down making quite a but of noise, absolutely unacceptable. Having a security guard monitoring the facility is a suggestion I would like to make. I can make several other suggestions but these were some that came to mind. I may come back to stay at your hotel and be grateful if some changes are made by that time. Don't get me wrong, I just want to help you improve your facility to be a place guests will want to return to. Overall, it's lovely new, well kept hotel and most comfortable. Keep up the good work and I hope to visit you again in the future! P.S. One last thing, the Entrance to the Hotel is VERY DIFFICULT to find especially at night so improving the signage definitely needs be better, by making it BIGGER and easier to see. I hope you will consider some of my suggestions.
The cleanliness of the room and the modern facility was awesome. I was a Concierge at the Hilton in Honolulu so am fully aware of how guests expect to be treated. Your staff was very professional but some were not as friendly as others.

CanadaDirections to find the hotel are a bit off. Sure it’s a 7-10 min walk from the station but that also depends k. What exit. In frustration we walked from shin Kobe to the hotel. We were able for it. Our legs were fine and the day was beautiful so it wasn’t a problem. We did eventually sort it out, but finding the line that we needed to get back to Shin Kobe was not exactly easy. We found it more difficult than Tokyo or any of the other 12 cities that we went to on our trip. The beds were extremely comfortable, the room was large, the amenities were wonderful as explained earlier. We had bottled water in the room and towels left fresh for us each day if we didn’t want people to come into our room. There were toothbrushes and toothpaste, as well as bath cloths, face wash, and moisturizer. I would definitely stay here again now that I know how to get there. It just wasn’t easy. This is also my seventh trip to Japan so it’s not as though I don’t know how to use the subway or to speak Japanese and ask for directions. As a final note, the Japan rail pass does not work on the regular line so we did have to pay around ¥240 total for the two of us each time we access it from shin Kobe. There was enormous amount of shopping directly across the street as well as two McDonald’s and all kinds of Japanese restaurants. The shops were open really late.
It was classy feeling. Staff was nice amenities were plenty. Something we had never seen before was mouthwash and leave in hair conditioner. The only annoying thing was that the hotel always makes us stop at the second floor where the front desk is. Even if you don’t want to it - it stops.
