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.).

SwitzerlandIt seems to be a bit dated. Still clean though...just not very shiny new and modern anymore.
Like in all Candeo Hotels the rooftop Onsen is a plus. Location is perfect to explore Kumamoto for a few days. We stayed there as a family of four with two toddlers in a large twin room. Everything perfect as long as you don't mind to share the bed. I especially liked the fact we had room with two side facing windows with great views!

FinlandWe found Candeo hotels to be a little "style over substance" - everything was made to look flashy, but there was not an emphasis on customer service. Having the reception and breakfast on the 12th floor meant that you always had to wait in line for the elevator. Breakfast was a bit disappointing, and the system meant there were long waits.
Location and room was clean and spacious.

AustraliaI found the beds truly hard and uncomfortable, also the pillows.
The location was great- right around the corner from a covered mall with dozens of food and shopping choices, than 5 minutes walk to tram stop to the train station; also only a short walk to Kumamoto Castle. Good sized room, and the onsen was appreciated at the end of big walking days

AustraliaThe arrangement for breakfast when there are large groups booked in is not good enough for guests paying for breakfasts. It sounds as if being given a 45 minute time slot for breakfast would be enough, but with the queues snaking along the buffet, it was 20 minutes into our allotted time before we sat down to eat. At least there are no restrictions when bookings are less. It seems they need to start serving breakfast earlier and run it later to avoid feeling like we were in a boarding school or a canteen.
Good location with many little restaurants and bars nearby. Good deal with the adjacent car park too (1300 yen per 24 hours). Breakfast OK - many Japanese options, but not so many western ones if that is what you want. Enough vegetable and salad options to satisfy a vegetarian I would think.

SingaporeThe onsen crowd level displayed on the TV was inaccurate. It showed as unoccupied, but in reality, it was slightly crowded. This could be disappointing for those who are shy about using a public onsen, as they might expect an empty space but find it crowded upon arrival.
- We paid extra for 1 day of breakfast, and it was delicious. (The Takana Rice and Dago Soup is a must try! ) - The shared onsen on the top floor was enjoyable. - The staff was friendly and welcoming. -The hotel is located near a shotengai, making it convenient to walk to Don Quijote, pharmacies, and other shops. A famous tonkatsu restaurant and a nearby mall add to the convenience. -Kumamoto Castle is just a short walk away. - The hotel is also only four tram stations (about 15 minutes) from Kumamoto Station. - Onsen is open from 3pm all the way to 11am next day meaning you can use them in wee hours too!
