Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Hong Kongthis is not a bad point, As the hotel is the restaurant at the same time, actually, I want to try the food there. However, somehow it is difficult to know the opening hours of the restaurant.
Location perfect, close to the bus station and convenient store, the room is clean and new, everything is new and comfortable, if I go back to Hakuba in future, I definitely consider this place first.

SingaporeA mirror in the room would be a nice touch, but there are mirrors in the washroom and cleaning areas, so it's not really an issue. Toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, and shaving needs were not provided. But it's okay; there's a 24/7 LAWSON nearby.
Exceptionally hospitable and helpful staff. Very convenient location - situated near Hakuba Happo Bus Terminal and many good eateries. Spotless rooms, washrooms and common areas. Has a drying room for all ski equipment and an in-house onsen. Love it. You can also request for a Yukata.

Lovely home vibe and friendly owners who made me feel right at home. Ringoya had everything I needed for a comfortable and enjoyable snowboarding trip to Hakuba. I would love to stay here again.

AustraliaBath is a bit small so avoid during peak bath times. The pay public bath is only a short walk though.
Great location being only a short walk to Happo bus terminal. Had a small but hot bath, which is amazing after a day of skiing. Great coffee on site too. Room was really comfortable with everything you expect from Japanese style room. Hardly any noise from anywhere and slept so well every night. Comfortable common area for meals and just relaxing. I didn't use the kitchen but looked like there was plenty to prepare small meals if needed. Has a drying room and place to do minor tuning but also near Woody's if you need professional service. Clear explanation of facilities in English and Japanese. Staff were amazing!

New ZealandI loved staying at Ringoya. A lovely Guest House with very kind and welcoming hosts. The rooms are lovely Japanese rooms with tatami mats and futon mattresses, which I found very comfortable. The shared men's and women's toilets are close to the rooms and very clean. The shared kitchen and dining, lounge are is great too, allowing you the option to cook your own meals and catch up with others. There is a men's and women's public (shared) bath area. A lovely hot bath to relax in after the day. It is small, and while I was there I was the only one in it each time I used it, but could seem a little cosy if there were a few people using it at the same time. There is a private bathroom and shower too. The japanese breakfast and the evening resturant meal with their hand made soba is incredible. Absolutely loved staying there a day would definitely stay there next time e I'm in hakuba. Location is a 3 minute walk from the shuttle bus terminal in happo.

JapanWhile the kitchen, dining, and lounge area was sufficient during my stay, I felt that it could be expanded to accommodate more guests during peak times. However, I personally had no issues during my stay and enjoyed meeting with other guests from various countries.
The hospitality of the staff was outstanding—friendly and welcoming. The famous Japanese soba served for lunch and dinner at Ringoya was delicious and exceeded my expectations. The kitchen, dining, and lounge area for in-house guests was cozy and comfortable. The location is excellent, especially due to its proximity to the Hakuba bus terminal, other shops, and restaurants.

AustraliaMy boots didn't fully dry in the drying room, but my brothers did, so maybe mine just take more to dry.
Very friendly staff, they were kind enough to refund a night of stay when our flight got delayed by a day and were happy for us to leave our bags with them before check-in time so we could hit the Happo-One slopes after arriving and also let us leave our bags after checkout till the afternoon. Everything was clean and tidy. Drying room in the basement for boots and gloves, etc.

JapanI wish the room had a small table lamp for extra comfort, as it only had a ceiling lamp. But that's it.
Lovely room, very comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helping. There's a brand new common area for cooking and eating, a nice 'onsen' which is great to relax after a day of snowboarding, and a basement room for rentals.
