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.).

IndonesiaI was charged extra by the hotel. At other hotels in Booking.com I have never paid for extra as tax is included. I think booking.com needs to inform us in advance about this. It would be nice to have some coffee at the lobby while waiting for check-in.
Great location as it is just across the Kyoto Station and Airport Shuttle Bus Stop. Smooth checked-in and checked-out. The bathroom, toilet and wash basin are separated so it makes it easier for each of us to use it as no need to wait for other to finish using it. Nice shampoo and soap. We love the bento breakfast although it is simple.

AustraliaConsidering the price, I don't feel the skin care package was good value for money. Probably a translation error on my part but I thought there would be more to it.
Hands down the nicest staff. Every time I made a mistake they were able to fix it! Loved the dinosaurs. Great location if you want to catch a train to temples before the main crowd. Near lots of shops too. Room is bit more basic and less homely than other rooms I stayed in but still functional and clean. VR headset was awesome but factor in time to set it up and figure out how to change the language to English. Also the free games are a bit difficult to find. I enjoyed the free breakfast bento after an early morning temple hike.

SingaporeOnly one long desk. No table and only one chair. The bed has no head board to rest on. My head keeps on hitting against the wood sticking out, so quite uncomfortable. Should try to change the bed design.
Clean and tidy. Good location. Transport shopping and restaurant nearby. Affordable. I like the self service laundry.

United States-Had to get breakfast ticket each night from staff. -Robot receptionist didn't work well. -Wife thought mattress was two firm. -Morning breakfast was limited on costumers at a time, so meals are staggered. Arrived late first evening (and didn't check email to request time),so all our breakfasts were scheduled at not most preferred time.
-Comfort- Had the foot massager in room was nice after a long day of sightseeing on foot. -Storage- Day of checkout stored our luggage all day until ready to leave town. -Staff- Robot receptionist didn't work well so real people were very helpful. -Digital help- Had a help desk with local stuff to due with short description and QR code to Goggle Maps. -Location- very close to Kyoto Train station by 7eleven and a donkihote. -Security- needed key card to get elevator to floor.
