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...).

I have back problems and often have pain in the morning. That was not the case for the beds here, i woke up pain free! Very comfortable after a long day of walking around.

AustraliaLocation was perfect - a short walk to the station and right in the middle of the Asakusa tourist district. Heaps of food and shopping options right out your front door. The host was super friendly and accommodating, and the rooms were very comfortable and quite spacious - the futons were very comfy too! One of our rooms even had a stunning view of the tower! Would definitely stay again.

AustraliaThe weather was a bit warm the week I was there, so my room was quite warm being on the 4th floor. However there was an aircon I used sometimes. Also, there was only a main light in the room (and separate light in the bathroom) Perhaps a small lamp could be placed in the room so the main light does not need to be kept on when reading etc.
I loved the location. So close to the sights of Asakusa which were quite busy during the day but then were peaceful at night. The room 'felt" more spacious than a regular hotel room, I guess because there wasn't much furniture. I also had a great view of the Skytree from my window! It was easy to get to other parts of Tokyo by train or walk to some other significant areas (eg. Sumida City). Some of these places could be crazy but it was nice to 'come home' to Asakusa and although the ryokan was literally around the corner from Nakamise Shopping Street, once you entered it, it felt so removed. The owner was lovely, she was always smiling and helpful and let me check in early at 1pm as the room was ready. I was happy to just leave my bags but it was nice to have a rest before going out again. I used the bathtub a few times (after a few busy days of sightseeing) which also had these great armrests built in. There were many shops and eating options nearby too.

GermanyThe toilet paper is very thin. That was my only issue. I cant find anything else that needs improvement.
Ryokan Mikawaya is very close to the market and shrine but still completely quiet at night. You have direct access to a huge variety of restaurants. The owners talk to you in Japanese by default but can easily switch to English so it’s a great place to practice Japanese without getting stuck. The free tea bags and coffee get refilled every morning. The bathroom had body soap, shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, a comb and a razor. All you need to bring yourself is showergel and toothpaste.

VietnamRyokan Mikawaya in Tokyo is a charming traditional inn that offers guests an authentic Japanese experience. Located in a convenient area, it provides comfortable tatami rooms, warm hospitality, and a glimpse into Japan’s rich cultural heritage. I appreciate its cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and proximity to major attractions.

I had an amazing experience at this location during my previous trip to Tokyo. I loved how central it was, making it easy to explore the city. It's just a quick walk to the subway.. The staff were outstanding; they made me feel comfortable and at ease throughout my stay. When planning my return to Tokyo, this place was my first choice because of the wonderful service and great location.
