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.).

GermanyStayed in this hotel just 1 night (but 2x) and it's the perfect overnight stay for a Kaohsiung transit. 🛏 Nice, clean rooms that have large windows overlooking the recently rebuilt main station. All rooms have AC that you can control individually. 🍨Free snacks are provided all day (including 8 different flavors of ice cream!), coffee and tea also around the clock. Delicious and varied buffet breakfast with local and western choices included in the price. 🧺Has a self service laundry facility, and they even provide free bikes for the adventurous ones who dare to bike in central Kaohsiung:) 📍Location tip: ignore GoogleMaps directions from the station, just look with your eyes :). GMaps is not updated yet with the brand new walkways - the hotel is just opposite the MRT exit and is a 3 minutes walk. 💰Value for money is just outstanding! The only reason I am not suggesting the Kindness Hotel for an extended stay in Kaohsiung is - because I really think that if someone stays multiple days or longer (using Kaohsiung as a home base), staying at Yancheng district at the waterfront is the best experience. 🌊

MalaysiaI had a wonderful experience staying at Kindness Hotel-Kaohsiung Main Station. The staff was very wonderful and catered to my every need. The room was impeccably clean, and all the facilities were in perfect working order.Thank you for your excellent hospitality, and I hope to stay at Kindness Hotel again soon.

IndonesiaI would say the breakfast is average, just a regular buffet with nothing really special. The bathroom floors are quite slippery so it is better to use the provided bathroom sandals.
We chose this hotel because it is very convenient, located right in front of Kaohsiung Main Station. We arrived by car and although the hotel doesn’t have parking, we were able to park at the newly opened parking lot under the refurbished main station. We then took the train to Kaohsiung Stadium for a concert, very convenient. The hotel interior seems newly refurbished as well so it is clean and spacious enough. You can get a nice view of the main station with a city backdrop from the window. Breakfast is included and the staff are friendly. You can find fast food restaurants and convenience stores nearby!

Nice lounge area with 24/7 coffee, tea, and snacks. Free guest laundry was a plus. Right across the street from Kaohsiung train station & MRT so it was very easy to get around. The included breakfast was pretty good.

Handily located just opposite the station so all modes of transport around the city and beyond are readily accessible. The rooms were comfortable and breakfast was fine but the facilities of the guest lounge really make the hotel special. The ice-cream and daily beer were much appreciated.

ThailandBooked this hotel for 2 nights in Kaohsiung. The location is a 5-min walk to Kaohsiung main station for local trains and subway. Bed was comfy and I was particularly surprised by the bathroom shower heads that have multiple settings. The toilet was Japanese modern style, which is really a plus. Room was very clean and spacious, and super comfortable. Each room was entitled to a free bottle of beer or soft drink daily. This was really nice! There was also a comfortable lounge for all guests to avail of unlimited coffee, tea, ice cream and small snack items all throughout the day. Breakfast was of good quality and with lots of choices. Highly recommended this little gem in Kaohsiung.

BahrainThere is no late check out option regardless of us only being able to check in late due to the flight delay. I do wish that there were more fruit options in the breakfast buffet. Reception could be a bit more cheerful instead of looking bored but that's just a minor recommendation.
It is our first time staying in this branch and it exceeded our expectation. We are grateful for the entire staff/ team who have been nothing but friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The rooms (both triple room and double rooms) were clean and sanitized properly. The beds were comfy and the pillows were soft but firm. Though the room was on the smaller side it was alright as they offered great amenities like a work area (where you could study/ work), there was also a lounge on the first floor next to the snack bar (with free snacks, chips, juices, coffee and tea). They also offered a free coupon per room which offered their own draft beer. The breakfast buffet had a wide variety of food selections. We also appreciated the free laundry area next to the lounge. Apparently there's also the option to rent a bike for free but we never got to try this as our itinerary was quite hectic.
