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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

Most of it! Happy to have a big TV that you can screen mirror your phone. And can see how long the laundry facility be available thru the tv as well, saves you time from going up and down to check the laundry area. Friendly staff, very clean facility. Hotel provided umbrella as it was raining so much when we visited Kyoto.

ItalyUpon entering the room, we noticed that it had not been thoroughly cleaned. Dust was visible near the bed and in various other areas of the room. We displayed the "Please Clean Room" sign, hoping that the issue would be addressed, but unfortunately, there was no noticeable improvement in the cleanliness of the room after housekeeping had visited. While the overall condition of the room was not unbearable, it did not meet the standards we anticipated from a hotel of this caliber.
The hotel's location is ideal for those planning to visit other cities, such as Nara and Osaka, as it is conveniently situated near Kyoto Station. The staff members are proficient in English, which made communication easy and efficient. The hotel itself is modern, and we found our room to be a reasonable size, contrary to some reviews that mentioned the rooms being small. One convenient feature is the ability to check the laundry status directly from the TV in your room.

PhilippinesTheir check-in time is so late at 3PM considering the very early check-in time. They just follow the guidelines by the book and will not entertain extra requests. I requested for a later check out or early check in since we'll be transferring rooms within the hotel but was not granted even if I have my toddler with me.
I like that the location is just a few minutes walk from Kyoto station. It's very accessible especially when you have so much luggage. There's also a convenience store beside the hotel so you can buy your essentials.

SingaporePaying accomodations fee at the kiosk to dispense room key was not expected. Staff was not very friendly at the beginning when I was checking what did I booked. When I asked to confirm if I booked twin bed rooms instead of double bed. she replied that but you book twin bed at the point of booking. Didn't expected that from a customer service line.
The location is great. The place was clean and bright too. Ability to leave your luggage before and after check out is a plus. Breakfast was nice and fresh with lots of variety of japanese food!

SlovakiaI didn't like only two things. The first one was the location of the room, it was on the second floor (or first depending how you take it) and directly above convience store below. The wall is basically all glass, which normally means a lot of light and nice view. In this case it meant street full of people going to shop and having a great view at us inside. So the whole stay we had to had curtains on unless we would like to be observed 24/7. You might think no one would look, but we quickly found the opposite to be the true. The second thing was the bathroom door from inside had some large lightly brown colored stain (honestly it kind of looked like someone with stomach issues didn't make it on toilet in time). I didn't really explore the stain in detail, but I tried to wipe it with wet tissues and it was possible to remove it, so the staff just didn't wipe it before we came.
Perfectly located close to the Kyoto station, yet peaceful. The location is absolutely great, you can access Kyoto station in like 5 minutes by feet and even take elevator if you have large suitcases. Check in was smooth, after check in you can take any free ammenities you want including completely free drip coffee bags. The room was spacious compared to other hotels we experienced in Japan. There was a small couch, comfy bed, standard Japanese bathroom, fridge, basically everything you expect in order. Mostly everything was ok and as expected, the staff was polite, the room quiet and nice, the free ammenities generous. There are vending machines, shops and station very close.

MalaysiaSmall room and laundry. The room is small but that’s what we have expected. Tried to do our laundry but the clothes couldn’t dry. We put in dryer more than an hour on the dryer but clothes were all still wet. We washed it during day time around 11am. No much queue. For evening time the machines were all occupied.
Cleanliness and location. Room is clean & cosy. Very near to Kyoto Station, Airport Limousine Bus Station and Kyoto Tower. There are many restaurants and mall nearby. The hotel provides necessities such as shampoo, conditioner, body soap, toothbrush, hair dryer and pyjamas.

Fantastic location about 3 mins walk from Kyoto station and there is a 7-11 downstairs as well as numerous restaurants around. This is the best hotel we've stayed at in Japan in our two week trip. Quick check in and check out. Good facilities such as coin operated laundry, microwave in laundry room and luggage storage. The room was spacious and very clean. We really enjoyed our stay here.
