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.).

JapanHonestly nothing. I was very satisfied with the stay.
I stayed at this hotel a night prior to my Shimanami Kaido cycling trip. The room was extremely clean and comfortable and I had a lovely view of the river. The breakfast buffet spread was excellent with both international and Japanese cuisine, salads, and desserts. On day of my cycling trip, I woke up early to rent the bike I wanted and was able to park it at the hotel before finishing my breakfast and setting off.

United KingdomThe hotel is well located and the staff are excellent. We had a mix up with our room on arrival but they sorted it out very efficiently. The breakfast caters mostly for Japanese visitors. Parking is very close but you have to pay for it. For UK visitors, the hotel is similar to a Premier Inn in style but much nicer in how it feels to be there. Onomichi is a brilliant place to visit and the Sakura Hotel is a great place to stay.

AustraliaWhilst I loved this hotel (as above), it was the most expensive hotel (of six) I stayed at during my visit to Japan and I do not feel there was anything really significant to set it apart and justify this, so it is simply on those grounds that I rate it less well in this domain (as above) and this is why I score it an 8, it would otherwise have been a 9.
Great location. Loved watching the comings/goings along the quay/channel from the window. Close to station and temples walk, and if doing Shiminami Kaido cycle ride - close to ferry and bike hire places. Very helpful and genuinely welcoming staff. Good breakfast.

United StatesThere is only breakfast available which was very nice. The location was great for train travel and climbing the to the temples on the hillside walk. For dinner there is a very friendly Izakaya restaurant across the street. Parking is tenuous, costly nextdoor or cheaper with a longer walk, drop bags first. Our room had a fabulous view of the harbor.

CanadaThere was a strong mildew smell in the spotlessly clean bathroom, yet the bathroom looked like it had very recently been fully redone/refreshed! I examined the shower and saw that there was no caulking between the tub and the wall, so water would've been going right down into the crevice. I would've given this feedback at checkout, but I left early and used the checkout machine.
Great location! Great size for repacking my luggage to prep for my flight back to Canada after 3 weeks in Japan. Also, handled my luggage that I got shipped ahead with care and had it waiting for me at the front desk.
