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 reviewA good sized room, clean facilities, nice area if you’re looking for a rural Japanese experience
Very ‘full-on’ experience, you need to be completely ready to let go and have someone in your personal space at all times. If you try to deviate from the plan there is plenty of resistance. Be ready to eat what you’re told at the time you’re told, in your bedroom - there is no restaurant. If you’re looking to be mothered and lose free will during your stay, it will be great. Going in summer may not be the best - no need for a hot spring when it’s 27 degrees at midnight.

Verified reviewI especially liked the Onsen both the private one in our room and shared one outdoor. The location across the street from a Buddhist garden path with shrines was one of the most magical sites I experienced in our 2 weeks in Japan - More serene and private than Kyoto. The meals were like a Michelin-starred experience. It is a full eversión into Japanese cuisine. But it was the Ryokan staff (Midori & Tomoko) that made this ryokan a memorable experience. We had never stayed in a ryokan before so they gently guided us through the proper etiquette and dressed us in yukatas for dinner which they provided. We traveled there with our adult children and this ryokan was one of our most memorable experiences.

Verified reviewHuge, beautiful, comfortable apartment. The staff & service was fantastic; very attentive. It’s expensive but the experience was fabulous. We were given traditional outfits to wear for the kaiseki style dinner in the room. The food was delicious & very plentiful. Breakfast was the same - so much food! The highlight was the private heated spa pool on the balcony. It was a lovely relaxing experience in the middle of a very busy tour of Japan - just what we needed!
Thank you for using our hotel the other day. Thank you also for posting your review. We are honored that you enjoyed Japanese culture and had a relaxing stay. We look forward to seeing you again. Thank you very much.

Verified reviewWe did not enjoy the stay at all - we booked for 2 days but left after 12 hrs it was not an enjoyable experience
Nothing the food was inedible there was no shower ( that we could see) so we ended up having to leave without showering…. We tried to speak to the hotel but no one spoke English and forced us to pay everything upfront it was a horrible experience I did not eat anything for 24 hrs
We apologize for not providing sufficient information about the open-air baths in your guest rooms. As you had informed us that you had no food allergies, we prepared the usual meals for you. Also, as your reservation was for a two-day stay, different dishes had already been purchased for the second day. We were only able to accommodate as many changes as possible on the day, for example to accommodate ingredients you dislike. As a result, we were unable to prepare meals that would satisfy you, and it is unfortunate.

Verified reviewFacilities were very clean and the onsen was functional. Staff were sweet and friendly with a high service mindset.
The pick up times from the train station could have been more flexible.
Thank you very much for staying at our inn the other day. We appreciate your perfect rating for the basic items. For the shuttle service, we use a single shuttle vehicle to go back and forth between the inn and the station. As the number of passengers is limited, we operate by reservation only and at set times. We appreciate your cooperation. Thank you very much. Tachibana Shikitei

Verified reviewSuch a wonderful experience unlike any other. We were the only foreign tourist at the time and felt welcomed with open arms. The facility is beautiful and serene and we felt like we were being doted on by a bunch of aunties. Loved every moment.

Verified reviewWe chose this luxury traditional hotel to end our two-week trip in Japan. We were not disappointed. Our room included half board. The room itself is spacious with an outdoor Onsen facing the greens. We were treated like the kings the moment we arrived. The diner and breakfast were delicious and gastronomic. We enjoyed it so much!
Nothing!
