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 reviewThis was our second time staying at East Square Tokyo, we were there in mid-June for 4 nights. Our first stay was last December and we enjoyed our stay so much that it was a no-brainer for us to book a room at East Square Tokyo when we knew we would be back in Tokyo in June. As with our previous stay, the room was clean and comfortable. Location was convenient and quiet. Subway station is close by. Convenience stores and a supermarket are also within walking distance. We really like the residential vibe of the neighbourhood. Having access to a washer/dryer plus a kitchenette area in the room are big plus points for us. Last but not least, we really appreciate the friendly, helpful service from the staff, and in particular, Yu-san! The warm hospitality from Yu is what makes East Square feels like a home away from home. He remembered us from our first stay last December, and we were all excited to see him again when we checked-in in June. Really glad we got to catch up with him again on this trip. We look forward to future stays at East Square Tokyo!
A minor detail, but it would be really helpful if the hotel could provide a kitchen sponge (for washing dishes) in addition to the cloth that's currently provided. With only 1 small and pretty thin cloth provided for our use at the kitchen area, it's tricky to try to wash and dry dishes, as well as wipe down a wet countertop. Also, if at all possible, providing a small saucepan with a lid (stainless steel saucepan?) would also be useful. Right now, in terms of cookware, it's either a very large non-stick stock pot or a non-stick frying pan. If we want to cook one or two eggs (hardboiled or poached eggs) or a small serving of noodles, there's no smaller saucepan that we can use.
Thank you very much for returning to East SQUARE Tokyo and for sharing such a thoughtful review! Hearing that 'it was a no-brainer to book a room' truly made our day. We are so delighted to hear you enjoyed staying with us again. It was a pleasure to welcome you back, and we are glad the service made you feel at home. And your kind words for our staff mean a great deal. We will be sure to share your compliments with that staff. We also appreciate your practical suggestions. We will try to work on improving the kitchenette setup. We can’t wait to see you all and catch up with you all again at East SQUARE Tokyo!

Their washing machine has a built in dryer which was very convenient. They also have iron upon request. The location is quiet and clean. It’s great! Near convenient stores, the subway station, and a supermarket around 10 mins walking.

Verified reviewThe day and night clerks were so helpful and friendly! It was the perfect place to stay with our group of 4. Very clean, modern, and traditional Japanese. We did all our laundry using the washer/dryer machine. We cooked and ate breakfast there each morning. We enjoyed eating at several restaurants closeby and shopping at Lawsons. Train station was a 3 or 4 minute walk! We stayed there 5 nights upon arriving in Tokyo, and 7 nights in other cities, and our last 2 nights we spent at East Square. We felt so at home there!!
The pillows are a bit hard.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're truly happy to hear that you had such a comfortable and enjoyable stay with us. It means a lot to know that our staff could assist you any time of day and that you felt welcomed and at ease. We're glad the space suited your group of four and that you appreciated the cleanliness, modern comfort, and touches of traditional Japanese style. It also sounds like you had a great time exploring the local area—thank you for sharing your experience. We're especially honored that you chose to spend your last two nights in Japan with us. We hope to welcome you back again in the future! East SQUARE Tokyo

Verified reviewGreat accommodation with good sized rooms, living area and kitchen. Separate toilet and shower. Washing machine was super handy. Staff were excellent and even helped us with our luggage forwarding and translation at the nearby lawsons. Very clean. The Japanese rice snacks were a great touch. Very close to station. Highly recommend.
Only issue we had was finding places to eat in the area. Takes a bit of Planning but that’s not really a reflection of the accom but maybe worth noting.

None. But if you like more nightlife then this place is not for you. Morishita is a bit far from other main area like Shibuya or Shinjuku.

Verified reviewIt was a beautifully decorated, spacious, comfortable apartment. Excellent facilities, kitchenette, full dining table, separate toilet from the shower room which is great when traveling with multiple people, airconditioning, a small balcony and able to open windows in bedrooms which is great. It's on a quiet residential street, so great for getting to sleep. The staff are so friendly and very helpful, they really try to make you feel welcome and all the staff we saw spoke English. This was easily the nicest place we stayed at in Japan. It is within a few minutes walk to Morishita subway station, restaurants and convenience stores. It is a little bit further out from some of the main attractions in Tokyo, but well worth the little bit extra travel time.
Very minor but some extra towel rails or bath hooks in the bathroom would have been great.

Verified reviewEvery person that we came across at the front desk spoke English and they were all super friendly and helpful. Location was great, quiet but train station was just around the corner. Supermarket a few minutes away. Lots of convenience stores nearby but also lots of options for meals. Having the washer & dryer there was really handy and it actually dried the clothes so could easily set and forget. Heat pumps in both bedrooms and living area so well suited for all seasons! For the size and location, it was well worth the price. Having two separate bedrooms that weren’t overly cramped was really rare to come across during my search so really glad we came across East Square. Perfect for our family of two adult and two young kids.

Verified reviewThe hotel was amazing! The staff were all lovely and very helpful. I was in contact with Yu Mihara-san through Booking, and he always answered my questions in detail. He also welcomed us at check-in and even helped us with parking. Since we parked a bit far from the hotel, he walked with us all the way to make sure everything was okay. The rest of the staff were also incredibly kind and friendly. The location is perfect, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. Yu Mihara-san also gave us clear instructions about everything we needed to know. I highly recommend this hotel!
