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 is big and comfortable. Dinner and breakfast are both delicious. Staffs are very kind.
Toilet is a little bit smelly.

The private onsen needs some attention.

Verified reviewA conveniently located hotel if you are going hiking in Mount Hiko. The dinner and breakfast were definitely worth the stay. The room had a beautiful view (2nd floor) and, even though the futons were maybe not the most most comfortable ones we had in Japan, we slept very good. Staff, although limited in english, were very kind and thanks to google translate all went fine!
The onsen is very nice, but with not so many facilities as in other hotels we have visited on our stay (no sauna, no cream in the mens one...). Breakfast was purely japanese (delicious), but maybe a little fruit would be nice, for the simpler stomachs.

Decor of the room was a little bit dated, but that is probably the only tiny negative and it's quite subjective

Verified reviewLove it, peaceful and tranquil, big room with great facility, outdoor onsen was great, and excellent service by hotel staff. Special accolades to front desk Manager Ma Chang Yong who went out of his way to help us make dinner reservations at izakaya Fukuzo (as we arrived late and dinner at hotel was already fully booked). He also provided detail transport info to the izakaya. We thoroughly enjoyed the dinner, great service and food super oishi 😀❤️
Private onsen was below our expectations,

Hotel is on the old and dated side. Does not ‘feel’ comfortable. Air conditioner fridge were old and making a lot of noise, had to unplug/switch them off to sleep. Also walls a bit thin - you can hear your neighbours and sometimes smell them!

Verified reviewConvenient. It had a parking and the room was big. It also had a small onsen. We chose a western style room, which was comfortable, but looked as in need of refurbishment. In fact the whole hotel seemed due for modernization.

Verified reviewThe location was fine for us because we had a hire car. It would be a taxi ride from the station. Lovely views from our room down to the town. We had a superb evening meal included in our booking - around 7 delicious courses. Friendly, helpful staff. My one small criticism is that our room was a bit on the cold side. It’s unseasonably cold at the moment and we could have done with some heating!

The private bath should not go by time slot booking should be go by who want to use by label the door available or occupied. Cause not all will use 45 min. This can make full use of the private bath.

Verified reviewThe room was very spacious and the pillow and bed were comfortable. The garden at the entrance was very quaint and beautiful. They have free private onsen rooms with its own shower. Just need to book in advance.
The property was very old and the bathroom was extremely cold. It was not easy to have a shower without freezing. The water will also turn from hot to cold intermittently. The breakfast and dinner were ok but no WOW factor. Although the lake and floral street are within walking distance, it is still quite a walk esp when it rains or snows which was the case when we were there.
