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 StatesI do wish they had more than two washer dryers. The snacks were a bit disappointing and very small. I wish the snack coffee machine was also available during the breakfast buffet. Those are pretty much the only issues I had with the hotel.
I loved this hotel and I was so sad to leave! No other hotel which claimed to be the same caliber and quality stood up to this hotel. The room was huge, the facilities nice and updated. I was grateful for both the iron and ironing board. I do wish they had more than two washer dryers. The snacks were a bit disappointing and very small. I wish the snack coffee machine was also available during the breakfast buffet. Those are pretty much the only issues I had with the hotel. It was directly next to a subway line, a 7 11 and a lawsons. I wish i had been able to find the equivalent of this hotel in Tokyo and Osaka.

Loved this hotel- great location for tourist areas. We had access to the VIP lounge which offered a great afternoon tea and evening cocktails. Nice way to relax out of the room.

United StatesOnly a slight complaint- the washer dryer combo doesnt dry the clothes well. It was 3 hours and still damp.
A beautiful modern hotel. The architect/designers put great thought and skill into every element. The breakfast was excellent and in a lovely setting. The Iconic Lounge was a great treat for an afternoon tea and pastry- No charge so the guest feels like a guest. Dont miss the bath- a beautiful and relaxing time ! Also we rated the pajamas that are provided as the best and most stylish of our trip in Japan. Very chic and comfortable

Irelandno fitness room, the reception area doesn't feel like 5 star, the bar is really like a lobby / waiting area and not a specific bar area. None of these things had an impact on our stay and I would stay here again. we liked it so much = we cancelled our hotel in Osaka and booked The Royal Park Hotel Iconic there also
Lovely hotel in a good location, lounge access was a real bonus - with afternoon tea and a nice place for a drink before dinner. Fabulous shower and toiletries, good sized room - corner twin suite with an extra bed (we were travelling with our son) great room with a balcony and a good size.

AustraliaWe loved our stay at this hotel. This hotel healed our souls after we had to leave a different accommodation where we had an awful experience. This hotel exceeded our expectations, the beds were huge and very comfortable, excellent pillow selection, large rooms for Kyoto. The view was stunning, absolutely amazing afternoon tea and evening drinks. Excellent connection to public transport, many restaurants close by and about a 15min walk into the city centre. I will be recommending this hotel to all our family and friends

South AfricaThey leave little to no room for any dissatisfaction. Although we had the room without a view it didn’t distract from an epic stay. The complimentary high-tea and canapé/drink service each day became a highlight for us, something we haven’t experienced elsewhere while traveling Japan. Lovely attentive staff, substantial breakfast, great location, good onsen and comfortable (albeit tight with luggage) rooms.
