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 reviewExtremely well situated, fantastic view of the bay. Very kind host, cafe open late (midnight). Traditional house, renovated. If you're allergic to hearing the other guests, avoid. If you like soft and whispering ambient, go for it.
Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the view. We look forward to seeing you again.

Verified reviewAn amazing location in an amazing city. My favourite place that I visited in my 3 weeks in Japan. Onomichi is a must. Very beautiful, interesting, authentic place. The Hotel has a bar and some light meals at times. Great view. Traditional large clean rooms. A bit more minimal but I liked that.
Thank you for your review. We are glad to know that you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you again in the future.

Verified reviewBeautiful views and a traditional setting. Very comfy but will depend on who is in the rooms around you. Nice cafe and good breakfast options.
It's a big hill up there which is worth the view, but no dinner options up the hill, so stock up at 7-11 before you head up the hill and treat yourself to a bento box or some noodles on the lovely terrace (although remember the bug spray)!
Thank you for your review, and some tips for next guests. We look forward to seeing you again.

Thank you for your review. Did you enjoy the cycling? As for the location, it's true that you need to climb quite a few stairs, but that's precisely what allows you to enjoy the beautiful view. We believe that the view is what makes our hostel truly special. Esperamos poder veros de nuevo.

Verified reviewDef the one of best view hotels we’ve ever been. It’s next to the Senkoji so it gives nice peaceful energy. Very unique experience.
Maybe the stuffs can be more friendly and positive, sometime they act a bit disinterested.

We have also sent you a message, but we would greatly appreciate it if you could share more details to help us improve. We look forward to your reply.

Verified reviewWas within our budget and staff are really friendly and helpful.
You can hear everything bc of the thin walls, so def bring some earplugs if you're a light sleeper! It can also be hard to get to this guesthouse location because you must go up a flight of stairs to reach it.
Thank you for your review. It's true that you have to climb stairs, but we believe it's worth it for the view and the atmosphere. We look forward to welcoming you again.

Verified reviewBeautiful view from our room.
Our daughter got bit up by mosquitos at night.
Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We apologize for the mosquitoes. Although we have placed mosquito repellent vaporizers in the room, the building is old and located on a mountainside, so there may still be some mosquitoes. We look forward to welcoming you again.

Verified reviewAbsolutely loved the location of this Hotel, situated at the top of a mountain overlooking all of Onomichi. It was absolutely as stunning being able to see the sun go down over the city from your room and see the sunrise the next day.
Make sure to bring a small towel with you, as you will otherwise have to rent it. The room in summer gets really hot and it takes a while for the AC to cool it down.
Thank you for your review. We are happy to hear that enjoyed the view. We look forward to welcoming you again.

Verified reviewAmazing location, awesome sunset and great views. Lovely breakfast, good coffee and thick toast with jam. We would stay again if in the area.
Unfortunately we had noisy neighbours, not the guesthouses' fault, and we also had to get up to turn off the hallway light at night as it was keeping us awake. The toilet didn't have a bidet, so we used the public toilet opposite the guesthouse which was just as clean, this is Japan after all!
Thank you for your review. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the view and breakfast. We sincerely apologize for the noise. We look forward to seeing you again.

Verified reviewThe property is located in a very cute and historic part of the town, it has a very authentic feel. The staff is very very friendly, there is also a bar, a kitchen, showers and a terrace. We were quite sad we only got to spend one night there, wish we could enjoy Onomichi and the Guest house a few days more!
The house is old and made in Japanese style - as you can imagine the paper door aren’t sound proof, some guests weren’t very mindful about it and made quite a bit noise in the evening. I suggest you bring ear plugs just in case.
Thank you for your review. We sincerely apologize for the noise. We do inform all guests to be mindful about the noise at check-in, but as you mentioned, the building is old, so soundproofing may sometimes be insufficient. Thank you again for your stay and we look forward to your next visit.
