Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Hong KongNO LIFT: We stayed at the top (4th) floor which is a challenge after a long hard day of snowboarding. There is no instruction on how to operate the gas heater. We stayed in room 405 which had 5 beds, those who sleep furthest away from the door and gas heater might felt a little cold in the middle of night.
Simple but nice breakfast; very important before a day of snowboarding. The beds are soft with enough support, duvets and blankets are thick and warm. We all had good night sleeps. Washing machine and dryer are easy to use with clear instructions. Toilets are shared between rooms so it is very important to stay clean, I am glad the staff did an excellent job on that.

United KingdomA lift would have been nice, but I was only on the third floor so can't really complain ☺️
It had quite a chilled vibe, was more like a hostel rather than hotel which was fine. Shared toilet and Japanese style bathroom facilities which was as described in the booking but not really my preferred choice (as a shy Brit). Although it was no problem in the end. It was a long uphill walk from the bus station but then ideally located for several slopes, restaurants, bars and ski hire. It also had a large communal space including food making facilities, vending machine and coin operated laundry. The room was warm with a nice view of the slopes. The one member of staff that seemed to be running the operation was helpful.

TaiwanIt's about 12 minutes walking from the bus terminal station. But it's very close to the Best rental shop and the cable station.
Breakfast is very delicious and starts at 7:30 AM. They offer yogurt, soup, bread, rice and curry, bacon, sausage and salad. You will find a lot to eat! The room is very clean and tidy.

United StatesBreakfast was ok. Same each morning. But I'm not a big breakfast eater so it was fine. Lots of coffee. Shared kitchen/ common area if you wanted to cook orleave food inthe refrigerator/freezer.
The location was perfect. Right next to the gondola, a short 1 minute walk. I skied to the G Square entrance after an awesome day on the slopes. There's a few bar/restaurants right next door. My room overlooked one of the runs. I could see the lifts and gondola from my room. Spacious bedroom with shared bathroom and sink just outside. Onsen downstairs. Dry room to leave my boots and snowboard overnight. Walking distance from the Bus terminal and the shops.

Singapore- The location was quite far from the Zao Bus Terminal (~750m) and with the snow, my friends and I struggled a lot just to bring our luggages up. - Found a live spider in the room - You can only refill your water bottles during breakfast. Otherwise, you have to spend about 140 yen for a plastic bottle of water at a vending machine in the hotel.
- Helpful staff as one of them helped us with the kuroneko yamato waybill for shipping our luggages to our next hotel in Osaka. - There were dedicated areas for you to collect your delivered luggages or put your luggages for delivery (with the waybill) in the lobby. - Clean toilets despite it being shared. - Room was also quite spacious. - Location is next to Zao Heim Ski School. - Ski area is in front of the hotel.
