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.).

New ZealandFor foreign tourists it might be good to have the guide information on the TV in other languages like Mandarin, Korean and English.
I often come to Kagoshima and this is my favourite mid range hotel in the Tenmonkan area. The rooms are spacious for a Japanese hotel. As well as comfortable, clean and well appointed with crisp white cotton linen. No polyester bedcovers. The touches in the rooms are nice, attractive and clean with quiet air con. No lights shining from anything in the room at night. The lighting options were great. The location is excellent.

Ease to come around: checking in and checking out is one of the funniest and smooth experience I ever had. The place is quite central and near the night live of Kagoshima no need for a car to simply go around there.

AustraliaHaving reception people literally behind a closed door where you have to ring them, then repeat yourself 8 times, because they don’t speak English, then they hang up and walk out, is ridiculous. Just have a front desk to save the hassle. The room only has green tea, no coffee and no glasses.
The hotel is right across from the tram stop and is easy to get around. The area across the street appears to be lots of nightclubs and men’s bars, from what I could gather. But the rooms were quiet. The parking is next door, but it’d help to know.. you have to park first, then take your ticket up to reception, check in, dial 9 on the nearby phone, then pay for your parking. Also have everything ready to quickly take out of the car. The room was a good size and comfortable bed.

IndiaThe hotel uses electronic check in and minimal staff - on call. The check in desk has a holgram of a samurai and you self check in. My check in took some time and I needed to call for human help. The front desk staff sorted it out, but it was not as easy as having a person to do it in the first place.
Location was great - very great location for shopping Its a location that you can walk (1-3 km) to the central station, ferry to the volcano.

New ZealandI often stay in Kagoshima so I've stayed in a number of mid-range hotels here. This one is my favourite in the city centre and I usually try to stay here if the price is in my budget. I appreciate the quirky and easy check-in experience. The rooms are quite spacious for Japan and always clean. Their toiletries are organic and smell great! And their sheets and covers are cotton. It's also handy to Tenmonkan but in walking distance to the station.
