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 KingdomUnique experience. Immerse yourself in the Japanese culture and traditions. We really enjoyed our stay here. We appreciated the fact that we had our own private onsen. Room was very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was delicious. The staff at the reception/restaurant very polite and helpful. Easy access to the accommodation. We took a ride by bus from Odawara. Very scenic! Beautiful place! We strongly recommend this ryokan.

SwitzerlandThe beds and futons were quite hard for us, as we’re used to much softer bedding. The “lounge” where we played card games with the kids lacked style and had no view — the windows were blocked. It has potential to be a much cozier and more inviting space.
Wonderful Place in Beautiful Nature! We stayed in a room for four with a private onsen and truly enjoyed the hot spring water. Both breakfast and dinner were included in our booking — the food was fresh, delicious and abundant, and the service was genuinely friendly.

Really lovely retreat in hakone, the area is quiet and less busy. It’s right beside the bus station which makes it very convenient to get around. I would say there are only a few walkable stores/restaurants but we enjoyed them all. Staff were really kind and hospitable, ensuring you had everything you needed.

FranceThe beds weren’t comfortable, I had a backache when I woke up but the onsen solved this problem in a minute. The service at the restaurant was so so, we came at the table and we did’t understand quite well what should we eat first and how to do it, the waitress explained it once but that was too fast and too much information at once. We only realised at the end of the meal that there were a paper than was explaining how to eat everything, the waitress should have say it to us. Also they forgot our drinks, we had to ask them twice.
Big and spacious room with private onsen, in the middle of nowhere so it’s very quiet, Japanese diner and breakfast with unlimited drinks included. There’s a bus stop next to the place, it’s a bit out of the Hakone loop but a bus will get you there from Gora in 15 minutes.
