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.).

JapanThis hotel does not have terminals for paying by credit card, so guests have to pay online. I found it difficult to do the online payment on my iPhone at checkout. The first time, the credit card authorization failed, and I had to redo it. If there had been a credit card terminal, the authorization would have taken about 15 seconds. Instead, it took 15 minutes. I wondered why the hotel didn't have a credit card terminal (I've never encountered this situation at a hotel before). The clerk's explanation was that the Hakuba Group operates many properties and would need "about 30 terminals" if they used terminals. Her explanation sounded dubious to me: Many businesses have multiple outlets, but they have credit card payment terminals at all of the points where customers make payments.
It seems that the hotel was recently renovated, and everything was very clean and attractive. Good location. We arrived a little after 7:30 pm. The restaurant had already taken last orders, but the staff were very helpful about locating a restaurant that was still serving dinner and provided shuttle transportation, which made it very convenient. The hotel's restaurant, Gio's, has great food and a pleasant atmosphere.

AustraliaThe Happo was our second hotel location within the town of Happo and it was stellar! The convenient location of the hotel puts it in walking distance of all hot spots within the town and for locations that were a bit too far to walk, or when the snow was too heavy, the Happo team were incredibly accomodating in organising shuttle busses for guests. One of the town’s bus stops is conveniently situated at the hotel’s entrance too, so getting to different ski fields was hassle-free. Having Gio’s and The Clubhouse located within the building was incredible - immaculate vibes at all hours of the day/night. I can’t wait to return!

Location was perfect. Ski rental equipment outlet Rhythm was just outside the hotel. You could also return the equipment on site in the ski locker section. Complimentary shuttle services to Evergreen Ski School also made it so convenient. Rooms were comfortable, clean, functional and so well thought out. Absolutely love the cosy vibe of the property. Onsen in the property provided a perfect ending to any ski day!
