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...).

FranceThe internet was not strong but we appreciated the relaxing calmness.
The house is so beautiful and the lady is so nice! It's a whole little house on a calm street. The interior and exterior are very authentic Japanese style but it has all the modern comfort that's needed. It is not far away from the ferry port. The beds were really comfortable. The welcoming was also such a great experience. The host is kind and thoughtful!

The house and the stay were perfect. Greeted with smiles, tea and snacks from the host. An impeccably restored traditional Japanese house, finished to an extremely high standard. The host goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome and show you her beautiful house. The automatic bath was amazing. On a peaceful street just off the Main Street of miyajima. We loved it, Thanks so much!

United KingdomWe stayed at Shintatsuan for 2 nights in Miyajima, and it was the nicest accommodation we stayed at during our entire trip! Our host welcomed us with a lovely warm welcome! The accommodation is a beautiful traditional Japanese home with lovely artwork, furniture, and a comfortable atmosphere! The bed was extremely comfortable, facilities are great and it's located very close to the main attractions on the island. Amazing experience, would give more than 5 stars if possible!

GermanyNot a feedback just an advice. If you come in cold season don‘t forget your woolen socks! The heaters work very well but you can‘t wear slippers in the living room so feet would still get cold if you are not used to it :)

IsraelThe stairs to the upper floor were a bit tricky to climb, but aside from that, the place is even more stunning and authentic than in the pictures!
From the moment we arrived, our host welcomed us with so much love and even surprised us with handmade honeymoon gifts – such a touching gesture! There was also a heartfelt note that truly moved us. The place itself is beautiful, well-equipped, and incredibly clean. The bathtub was excellent, and the beds were very comfortable. We also appreciated the thoughtful snacks, coffee, and water. We wish we could have stayed longer – it was such a lovely experience. Highly, highly recommended!

CanadaThe property was a traditional Japanese home which was such a privilege to get to experience, it was absolutely beautiful. It was a great location and the host was very helpful and accommodating, she gave us tips for activities we had planned and let us know when all the times for high tide, low tide, sunrise and sunset were. She also let us leave our suitcases before and after the check out times so we were able to arrive early and leave late without having to take out suitcases around the island. Will recommend to everyone we know traveling through Miyajima!
