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 reviewThe room was very spacious and was more like a traditional Ryokan. The food provided was really good. Welcome drinks and snacks/drinks provided throughout stay was nice.
The dinner was more like a french contemporary meal versus a Japanese kaiseki. They paired all our plates with a drink which was nice but we still felt pretty hungry after the dinner. Access to the private onsen is only for certain rooms. Overall it seemed pretty pricey.

Verified reviewWe went there to celebrate our 10th anniversary, and honestly, it was so magical I’m not sure words can do it justice. The food? Absolute perfection. Not your typical tiny experimental Michelin bites—this was real food, bursting with flavor, creativity, and joy. The wine pairings elevated everything even more. The chef was incredibly attentive and made us feel truly special. The service? Flawless. After dinner, we moved to the bar where—plot twist—you get to mix your own cocktail, all while smooth jazz plays in the background. Our room? Apparently, even Emperor once stayed there. Historical charm meets modern comfort in the best possible way. Breakfast was equally delightful, and the cherry blossom in the garden was in full bloom—pure magic. The atmosphere was quiet and serene. Only downside: the surrounding area doesn’t offer much to explore—but honestly, who wants to leave a fairytale anyway?
Thank you very much for staying with us and your review. Congratulation for your 10th wedding anniversary. We are so glad to stay with us such a memorable day. Our lounge has many kind of local drinks. The guest enjoy making a cocktail, coffee and tea by yourself as you like. I hope to this experience was good for you. I hope see you again if you have a chance to come Japan. Thank you very much. Ryokan Onomichi Nishiyama

Verified reviewHad an overnight stay with my girlfriend. From the greeting straight out of the taxi, the introduction to the grounds and our room (a whole second story with a view overlooking the ryokan and water!), to the friendly farewell, the experience was exceptional and the staff beyond excellent. The dinner was a surreal pleasure, the highlight of the stay. We could only wish we could stay longer. For us, completely worth it for the price as a special treat.

Verified reviewAuthentic,beautiful gardens and the best food in Japan. The kitchen is outstanding,the food is thoughtful and prepared before your eyes and then served superbly. I can’t praise the chef enough. The matched wines were also perfect. It is amazing value but whatever the price it is the quality that counts. Simply exceptional.
You need to travel to the town, a car would be the best option. But it is a beautiful place to visit and stay

Verified reviewFrom the moment we were first welcomed to this Ryokan we experienced an exceptionally warm, friendly and professional service from all members of the team. Rooms were beautiful and spacious. The private bathroom was wonderful. The restaurant really completed the experience - top quality food complimented (in our case) by a wine pairing. Dinner is strongly influenced by French cooking but with a Japanese twist. We were seated looking on to the open kitched with great interaction with the team of chefs. This was our last stop in our 28 day trip to Japan and was one of the very best. We took the breakfast plus dinner option and for the quality would consider it excellent value. A definite recommendation to anyone

Verified reviewWe liked everything! One of the best decisions we made to stay overnight at the Ryokan Onomichi Nishiyama. The staff was fantastic and went out of their way to make sure our stay was perfect. We were also pleasantly surprised by the high quality of the dinner and breakfast which were included with our booking.
Some outside seating areas would have been nice, instead of always having to be inside a building.
Thank you very much for staying with us. Also, Thank you very much again for your comment about your stay. I feel glad to you enjoyed stay here. I hope to see you again. Thank you.
