How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

The water temperature of the public onsen was not hot enough for my liking.
The room was clean, comfortable and spacious with a wonderful view. It's a little out of the way, but they provide free shuttle service to and from the closest train station. The food was excellent and the staff were wonderful and attentive.

- • Japanese-Style Twin Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
I had serious issues with the wifi in my room. Most of the time it didn't work and I had to use data on my phone, which wasn't very good due to the location of the ryokan.
An absolutely excellent ryokan. The sea view was breathtaking with spacious sitting area to view it from. The room was also spacious, though a bit dated. However that's to be expected in a ryokan. They had private onsens for an extra 2000 yen but I never made use of them. The public onsens were large and spacious with indoor and outdoor onsens. Men were on the 5th floor while women were on the 6th floor. The outdoor onsens gave a view of the ocean. The rooms had plenty of provided amenities, though I wish there was an extra towel or two. The beds were comfortable as well. The kaiseki dinner and breakfast were spectacular and featured a wide variety of dishes. A shuttle to and from the station was provided, but it was only about a 5-8 minute walk from the station to the ryokan anyways and it was all downhill. Izu-atagawa station made it easy to go to the izu pennisula and Atami.

I hope it has a longer check-in time, 3 pm-5 pm is quite a rush for travelers who take trains to come... the train system is not so good because it is not in a big city like Tokyo.
I like the dinner, although it is quite expensive the service and food quality is super good! The staff is very lovely, even though they are not good at speaking in English, they will help you using different methods.

- • Family with young children
- • Japanese-Style Room with Sea View
- • Stayed 1 night
Morning sunshine is directly to the room and if you do not use air conditioner (or forget to use / forget to close the separating boards) then the morning could be very hot in the room. Also we felt the dinner cost was very expensive. The building and facilities felt like it was designed in the 60's (they are clean and working but old designs). No restaurant in the hotel but only breakfast or dinner served in the room, so you cannot have a bigger group to enjoy together a meal (max. 4 person).
The view from the room was amazing when we arrived in the afternoon. The onsen on the 4th floor has free usage and is great and it has both internal and external parts to enjoy. The traditional breakfast was good and contained local specialties too. There were free buses going to the railway station regularly in the morning. The staff tries their best to help your stay to be as pleasant as possible. The beach is in the front of the hotel.

The ryokan is certainly showing its age and some of the wallpaper in the room look dirty and stained. It doesn’t match the great reviews I came across prior to booking.
The ryokan provides shuttle service to and from the train station but only for a certain timing. The staff are friendly and warm and they also have Chinese speaking staff to attend to us. The full sea view from the ryokan and the beach just at the door step were cool.

There were stains on the wall and the inner side of the wardrobe. The top of the coffee table was damaged, and the table in the room was dirty. The facilities are outdated and require upgrades.
The outdoor public Onsen had a lovely view of the beach. The room too had a great view of the beach. Having POLA in all the bathrooms was a nice touch.

The facility is quite dated. Also, the hallways are open to the outside and anybody can access and walk around freely. This gave a sense of lacking security, especially when returning from the onsen.
This hotel is close to the station and to the beach to take a nice stroll. The view of the sea from the room was great. Breakfast was amazing!

Bad smell of cold cigarette in the room. Extra fees and taxes to pay on top of the booking for baby mastress and onsen (that we did not have time to even use) that were not announced at the booking. Staff a bit stressful on the check out timing: at 10am sharp, as we were about going down to check out, we both received a phone call from the reception with a tough tone of voice and a staff rang at the door at the same time to kick us out. Its is stressful for the family, especially when you have a baby boy.
