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.).

IrelandAll the instructions on TV about how to behave if you're a tourist ( how to walk on the road, not using your phone when walking etc..)and hard pillow.
This was the biggest hotel room we had in Japan. It was very well equipped with super comfortable large bed and cool dressing gowns:) The location is good, however it's half hour walk to the center and 20 min walk from the main train station. It was nice and quiet though. The staff was very nice, stored our luggage, as we arrived early. The highlight was breakfast with huge variety of delicious dishes and drinks, definitely the best breakfast we had in Japan. I recommend this hotel for comfort and convenience. Would definitely stay again.

AustraliaThere wasn’t anything I didn’t like. I just found the walk from Gojo station a bit far with luggages and you had to go up and down a bridge to cross one of the main intersections. I would recommend those travelling with big luggages to catch a bus from Gojo station instead of walking. On a nice day, it’s a pretty easy stroll though! Also, there was no sauna at this APA property.
Very close to bus stops which made it very easy to get to the closest train station and to get the buses to wherever I needed to go! The property was very clean and staff were very helpful! The buffet breakfast was fantastic too. It had a range of Japanese and Western breakfast options.

United StatesTotal disregard of customers needs on check-in. Room was not even ready and cleaning staff was gone. Reception didn't even know how to handle this situation. My request for manager to assist was flatly denied. Had the nerve to offer putting me up in another room, check out and check back in the next day when my reserved room for 2 days becomes ready. Total lack of common sense, and inconsiderate. Contrary to advertisement, staff doesn't speak English and relied entirely on cell phone to translate. Awful experience for my 3 days stay.

United StatesNothing, I enjoyed this hotel stay completely.
The location is fairly close to Kyoto station (about a 30 min walk - a scenic experience) and also across the street is a convenience store. Very close to the hotel are restaurants for dinner or lunch options! The cafe in the hotel for breakfast is delicious, definitely recommend buying the addition! They have laundry machines available for use and provided toiletries as well as yukatas. The staff were super friendly and the hotel itself was very nice and clean.

United StatesWindows were frosted so no view outside, room was for handicap so weird layout, no daily housekeeping , checkout was at 10am, had to pay extra 1,000 yen just to get it until 11am. That’s way too early of check out, only ice machine was on 1st floor for entire hotel
Clean, fairly spacious , nice to have self serve laundry facilities downstairs, very good

United KingdomEverything was fine and service was efficient.
The room is great value for money, well organised, clean, with a spacious and comfortable bed. The bathroom is clean , modern, with a nice bathtub. I enjoyed all the amenities in the room and the beautiful robes. Breakfast also offered a good selection from continental to Japanese options. It is conveniently located in a quiet neighbourhood that however remains quite central and easily connected to many of the landmarks.
