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.).

BrazilThe beds are a bit hard, though it's hard to find a place in Japan where that's not true.
Breakfast buffet wasn't out favorite, though the dinner buffet was great! The kids play area was also a nice touch.

AustraliaThe hotel is a little way out from the station and the check in is quite unusual as you just do it through a machine no reception. I found the ambience a little cold. The room was lovely & clean too. The restaurant was like a huge hall with so many families especially but we did notice it was a Japanese holiday weekend. The food was absolutely amazing & such a selection for everyone & the staff we couldn't fault.

Excellent customer service!! I prebooked 19:30pm dinner however the spent longer time on the trip than I expected and arrived the hotel 9:06pm. The reception is very nice and advised the restaurant is going to close at 9:30pm but because I did have Dinner plan then she called the restaurant staff and let me get in quickly pick up my food (it is like a buffet )while check in later. Then the restaurant staff helped to place my plates with me into my room :)) very friendly and professional highly recommend

MalaysiaTV channels. Don't have any cartoon for kids, don't have any MTV for teens, don't have any HBO for adults. But if don't watch TV then It won't bother you at all.
The highlights was the buffet dinner n breakfast and 3 times complimentary entrance pass to the Yunessun hot springs that come with the room.

United StatesThe hotel was great! The Yunessun was just OK. It probably needs a face-lift. Mori-no-yu was lovely.
The hotel was renovated last year and was clean and tastefully decorated. Although the ceiling (hallways) was low because the structure was built long ago, the beautiful wood panels made it less imposing. I loved the large window in the lobby and the beautiful garden. The public bath on the top floor was a great treat as well. The dinner and breakfast buffets offered a wide selection of Japanese and western food. Alcohol was included in the dinner buffet, which was generous. Lastly, we appreciated their free shuttle service to and from a few stations. We took it to visit the Hakone Open-Air Museum.

United StatesThe breakfast food wasn’t good at all and although the staff tried to help, there weren’t many staff that spoke English. Had I known most of them don’t speak English, I would’ve booked elsewhere as I felt like a burden on the staff since I don’t speak very good Japanese.
Free drinks, staff were very accommodating, and the rooms were very nice and spacious.

United KingdomFood was great, but personally I found the buffet-style stressful as very busy. I'd happily pay a little more to order from a menu to the table. Was delicious though with a huge range for all.

AustraliaCheck out time was at 10am with a late check in time of 3pm. It would have been nice to have a later check out time like 11am or 12pm to allow time to enjoy the facilities. Also, the luggage service is cash on delivery which most means you pay the cost at your next hotel which all hotels do not accept. Whilst there was another option to go to Family Mart next door to provide the service, it was a bit inconvenient. Perhaps improvement can be made with check out time and luggage deliver service
This was a newly renovated hotel. The ambience created was relaxing. The onsen on the top floor with amazing views of Hakone was a plus along with passes to the water park Yunessun located across the road. The buffet offerings were wide.
