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.).

Onsen is open to public outside hotel guests and can become busy at the end of the day.

Verified reviewHotel which doesnt impress on first site. But it has a lot of great things going for it! Location: you can ski to the slopes and ski back to the hotel. There is a great onsen! Absolutely adored soaking in the hot water after a long day skiing. The breakfast is Japanese style with some bread possibilities. But it is healthy and good. The hotel is at walking distance to some nice restaurants in the neighbourhood. We stayed in a Japanese style family bedroom and slept on futons. It was nice overly comfortable, but nevertheless a lovely experience. Great value for money!
Pillows were really not comfortable.

Verified reviewFantastic location. Ski in ski out. Walking distance from Hirafu welcome center and in town. I loved my in room private onsen with a view of ski slopes in Niseko. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They held luggage for me when I arrived early so I could ski, they have changing rooms, storage lockers, ski lockers, and large wonderful public onsen that was never crowded.
The building is older and doesn't look like much from outside, but the rooms appear recently remodeled, very nice inside, comfortable and quiet.

Verified reviewHotel is very outdated with a below average breakfast . It’s cheap for a reason but the great location with direct access to the ski area .
Hotel needs urgent maintenance and updating . It’s very old, rusted and tired .

Verified reviewAmazing facilities and super convenient for access to the ski lift. Great location in the town and friendly staff who kindly gave us complimentary champagne for our anniversary. We had the “non smoking deluxe twin with private onsen” which was soo worth it for the private onsen! The photos don’t do it justice. We loved our stay and wished we stayed longer :) won’t stay anywhere else when coming to the snow in Japan now, will definitely be back.
Nothing, it was superb

Verified reviewWe loved the private Onsen - so nice to come into after a day on the snow. Our deal included buffet breakfast which I'd recommend. Staff very obliging and friendly. There's no longer a bar at the hotel (used to be), plenty of nearby options. We have stayed here several times and the main attraction is both the public and private Onsens.
Some extra hooks in the bathroom for towels would be handy. The Prince is starting to show it's age, but is very clean and comfortable.
