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.).

United StatesBummer that the lobby massage chairs were only turned on in the afternoon and evening. Luggage storage was also out in the middle of the lobby - it seems a more secure location could be used.
Comfy rooms and pajamas, good breakfast. The manga library and lobby massage chairs are fun bonuses, and providing HDMI cables to easily connect laptop to the room TV is a nice touch!

United StatesWould be nice if the hotel wasn't covered in signs warning you not to take more than 1 of things. I understand it, but the warnings are a bit much.
Everything you'd expect from a business hotel. Very close to the station. Free curry rice on weekdays at the moment.

Fantastic location for me as it’s only 2mins from Takayama train station, 4 mins away from the bus station, and less than 10min walk to the Miyagawa river (and morning market) and Kamisannomachi. Directly across from the hotel is Geo Takayama Showa, which is a massive store offering thousands of Manga and DVD’s. A Daily Yamazaki is another 2mins away and the Boss Food Supermarket is just a short walk west of there. The room was very clean and modern, plenty of amenities on offer. I never got to try the public bath only because I was so busy getting out each day. My room bath was perfect and I loved the natural light that shined into my room. The hotels offer free curry (one plate per person) every evening until it runs out then a free drink after during happy hour. Definitely recommend staying here.

United KingdomYes, small rooms are a feature of Japanese hotels, but some use the available space better than others. This one was not so good, it was very difficult to find space to put everything, no storage under the bed, no little corners to leave stuff.
Well located hotel close to the station, with many places of interest within walking distance, and easy access to buses for those further afield such as the excellent Hida no Sato open air folk museum. The hotel itself offers lots of free extras such as a food and drink happy hour in which guests can have one dish (for as long as it lasts - be quick!) and one drink for free. The breakfast offers a wide variety of Japanese dishes plus a few western items such as croissants and cereal, and a bonus is a little dish of Hida beef and tofu in a delicious sauce which is brought to your table for you to cook over a mini barbecue! You also get a free drink (beer or a soft drink) if you are staying more than one night and choose not to have your room cleaned.
