How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Would have been nice to have somewhere to refill water bottles.
Fantastic location, walking distance to many sites. Subway a short walk away and a number of bus stops opposite the hotel. Good food options around lots of small restaurants and the day market a short walk. Reception area smells amazing and they put out a basket by the lifts filled with toiletries you may have forgotten. There was face masks which were very popular. Room was basic, we were able to fit 2 large suitcases open on the floor.

Only one pillow per person on the bed, it's not a deal breaker but we're used to sleeping with two.
Great location with easy access to bus stops for cheap and easy travel around Kyoto. Lots of restaurants and attractions within a 5-20 minute walk. Super helpful and friendly staff with great amenities such as face masks, herbal muscle pads, toothbrushes and more.

Quite small room (however, still functional and well designed). Also, there is no spa/onsen which would have complemented well the hotel's relaxing vibe.
Extremely tidy hotel with a nice atmosphere. Very good location. Helpful staff and nice selection of amenities available free of charge in the lobby.

The staff is okay, not super friendly. The room is quite nice, the only thing to complain is that the room a bit dark, making it hard to find things sometimes.
The cleanliness and the location is great. But you have to take out your own garbage and give the used towel by the door to comply with their environmental policy. For me it’s okay, you don’t get disturbed.

The smell in the bathroom - although there was a fan, it smelled like mold
Very stylish and new looking hotel just off the Main Street in downtown Kyoto. Close to all major transportation links and walkable distance to other parts of the town. The room was a bit small but well-equipped. The hotel is quiet and the smell in the lobby is very nice :)

I had 1 large and 1 small suitcase which did not allow for much room to get around the bed etc. There is a coffee machine downstairs in the guest area however cannot be accessed all the time. I was there at 7am to make a coffee and it was not available until 7:30am. The foyer where the elevators are and guest area to make coffee was absolutely freezing all the time. The air conditioning temperature was set to very cold and the fan was on full blast. Several people commented on it- not sure why it was set that way but it was not necessary.
Beautiful little hotel in an excellent location set back on a main street of Kyoto. They have a mini museum/gallery on site. Bus stops out the front, cafes and restaurants on your doorstep. The room was furnished with lovely quality furniture and felt like a luxury accommodation. Nice touches of traditional Kyoto style with a tea pot and ceramic cups in the room. The body wash etc was so nice to use. The hotel provides an assortment of products that you can take from the foyer which includes skin care, face masks and toiletries.
