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.).

United KingdomThat we didn’t stay longer!
This was an absolute find. Exceptionally clean, room (twin and double) a generous size. Comfortable bed and thoughtful touches. A good breakfast, bear in mind they are trying to cater for an international guest. Location was fantastic, in amongst it all, with a hive of activity out the front and back of the hotel and station 5 mins away, but also tucked away so peaceful inside.

KazakhstanThe bathroom felt quite small. The lighting in the room is a bit dim at night. I didn't notice any other downsides of living there.
The hotel is perfectly situated. It's just a short walk to the riverbank, and you'll find plenty of shops, including a large Uniqlo store directly across the street. The area is bustling with a wide variety of izakayas and cafes. You also have easy access to convenience stores like 7/11 and Family Mart. The hotel provides a dedicated room for dining, and complimentary coffee and tea are available all day. They also offer special hot water for preparing instant noodles, which is a thoughtful touch. The breakfast at the "Il-Chianti" restaurant on the basement floor is excellent, offering a great variety of choices. The room has all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. You can pick up all the necessary hygiene products from special boxes on the first floor, which is a great, convenient system.

United KingdomThe whole hotel was almost 'too' cold. I had to wear a jumper around the corridors. The breakfast was odd. There is so much choice, but it is the same every single day, even the 'pasta of the day' was the same 5 days in a row. It is a shame they do not change it on a daily basis. After 5 days eating the same choice of food we were very bored of it. The hot food As often cold.
Very beautiful hotel, it smells so good and everything is super clean and modern but with a lovely touch of the 'old Japan' throughout the hotel. There were lots of beauty samples available, face cleaner, masks, hand sanitising towels etc which was also practical. There is a living space with free coffee, water, ice, tea, microwave, boiling water and sofas/tables which was practical for eating in or chilling. Staff was lovely, super helpful with keeping our suitcases in before check in and after check out. The room had a good space, well arranged, cosy and lots of equipment provided. You will not need anything there, even pajamas are provided! Towels are changed everyday which is not necessary but appreciated. The lighting in the room is great to keep it soft and cosy. Aircon was discreet and efficient.
