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...).

JapanJust the construction- but it’s not their fault & was not noisy & didn’t detract from the view or experience.
Lovely young owners. Great little fishing town perfect after a hike. Shame there is construction out front for a new sea wall. Hope it will be finished for them soon. Still can see the Bay. Great seafood & fishermen to talk with. Great to get up early & enjoy the sunrise. Onsen behind at a discount was great! Nice breakfast & local products for sale.

United KingdomThe walls are on the thin side, so you can hear guests in other rooms at times.
The view was wonderful, staff were friendly and helpful, and the cleanliness and attention to detail were great. Would absolutely recommend a stay here.

JapanIt is noted everywhere but the structure is old so sound for noisy guests travels fast. Not Tagore's fault of course and they do provide ear plugs. The showers are tiny. Definitely bring an eye mask.
Great wee spot right on the harbour. Very comfortable beds and most of the staff are friendly and helpful. Nice cafe bar with good drink selection. Good shampoo, conditioner and hand soap.

We loved the transformation of this old harbour building into a airy, supercool hostel. The rooms are lovely and have a splendid view over the bay. The food and coffee are brilliant, as are the friendly staff. We were sad to leave and will hopefully be back.

SwitzerlandNothing much really! If I had to say something I would say the walls are a bit thin so if your neighbours are loud you might hear it! On the 7 nights I stayed there it happened once that it was a bit too loud. So nothing to complain about!
The room was super nice and had everything you needed! The view is absolutely beautiful and the sunsets are amazing. The best part for me were the super friendly people. One of the best experiences I had on my travels throughout Japan! Thanks again to the Tagore Team for making the stay so enjoyable!

ThailandThe room creeks a lot, so my husband was worried whether he would wake up other guests at night when he walks around
The staff are very helpful when I have questions and they try their best to answer me. If you are into a secluded sunset harbor then this is the place.

Denmarkit was such a beautiful and peaceful location, with great staff and people in the city, we felt very welcome and at home. after some days in bigger cities it's nice to slow down in this charming town. the hostel is great with rooms that are clean, nice and all have a beautiful view of the sea and harbor. there are different things to do here, my friend and i enjoyed renting bikes to get around and go to the beach faster. there’s a lot of space in the café area as well, perfect to sit and read a book or play a board game with friends. we had originally only planned to stay for 2 nights but ended up booking two more nights because we liked the place so much. we will definitely come back!<33

FranceWhat an amazing 4 day stay at Tagore ! The staff was very welcoming and helpful from start to finish. The dorm room is clean, cosy and bright with a gorgeous sea view (check sunset view below). I befriended my roommates and staff. Location is super convenient, bus stop and 7 Eleven are literally around the corner, 15 minutes walk to the shrine/beach. I rented bike for 500 yen and tried home roasted cafe latte. Great place for remote work as there is workspace inside the room and in the cafe. I have been backpacking in Japan for 2 months staying at hostels, Tagore is easily in my top 3. Looking forward to my next stay !
