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 KingdomThe tiniest room we've stayed at throughout Japan. Literally had no where to open our big suitcases. Considering the price of the hotel, it was disappointing. The baths were continually filled with guests, so we couldn't enjoy it. They were not open throughout the day but only during certain hours (during breakfast and dinner time) The staff refused to ring local restaurant to make reservation for us which was disappointing considering it was the weekend and everywhere was busy. Would not stay again.
The hotel was close to public transport / station. Breakfast had nice local / western options.

United KingdomThe hotel is what it says on the tin. It does feel a bit corporate. It was annoying how the only guest area was closed down immediately after the breakfast service.
Location was okay. As with anywhere in Kyoto, plenty of interest never too far away.

Australia- The bed was alright, on a stiffer side - The room is very small, especially for 3 travellers - The staff called us because the conversion ($) is wrong by $0.10 (100 yen) ... they called my friend to come down and settled it immediately lol. - 10 mins walk to the main shopping area.
- The public onsen that is part of the accommodation was so cool and great size! - have free water stations and paid laundry area on level 2 - the shower in the bedroom was amazing! Love the pressure! - The TV system is pretty cool as well - Wifi works great. - have free amenities and Yukata (Japnese bathrope) for all sizes on the ground floor - The staff was helpful and on point. - 10 mins walk to the main shopping strip. - 5 mins walk to nearby chemist. - 2 min walk to this really yummy jap franchised store at the corner!!

SlovakiaWe loved everything and hope we are back one day.
Beautiful hotel with a very helpful stuff, they provide an amazing service. The room was spacious with a huge bed for a very comfort sleep. We loved the onsen, and free drinks every evening provided by the hotel. Amanek is just few steps from Potoncho Alley, amazing path packed with traditional restaurants and we were able to walk everywhere around the city. It is only up to 20 mins walk from the main Kyoto station as well. Perfect hotel 1000%!!!

GermanyThe rooms were a bit on the smaller side (but still reasonable for Japan). The bed could only be accessed from one side, so with two persons and two suitcases, it can be a bit of an organizational struggle to move around the room. However, everything else in the hotel completely makes up for this: the beds were super comfortable, the staff very friendly and helpful, and the hotel comes with a nice public bath - excellent to soak in after a long day of exploring and strolling through Kyoto. The hotel has convenient access to public transport, the bus stop is directly in front of the door and various train lines can be reached within 5-10 minutes. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hotel Amanek Kyoto Kawaramachi Gojo!
