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.).

CanadaNothing! Everything was wonderful :)
We loved everything about this hotel. The host was warm and welcoming. He was very thorough in explaining all the features of our room. We stayed in the Oudo (Ochre) Room, which was beautiful and very comfortable. The location of the hotel is fairly central, and we were able to walk to all the sights we wanted to see in Kanazawa. We cannot recommend Hanaakari enough. Many thanks to our gracious host for such a wonderful stay!

CanadaThe host was super sweet—greeted us with welcome gifts and drinks on arrival, making us feel right at home. Tucked in a peaceful Kanazawa neighborhood, just a chill 10-minute stroll from the station and near Omoide Yokocho. The room? Spacious and comfy, plus bonus points for having in-room laundry—total game changer!

United StatesThe host was very friendly and spoke excellent English. He took the time to explain how everything worked. He had a book that explained everything in the room and walked us through everything from the door lock to the washing machine. The room has a blend of Japanese and Western style that leans more Japanese. Everything was perfect, in our opinion, and we would highly recommend it.

The accomodation is in a very quiet and peaceful part of town. Things are very clean and new, room is Japanese style low to the floor but beds are raised. There are a lot of electronics, window shutters to make the room dark, controls for bath, shower, toilet, ventilation etc. There's a book to translate the controls written in Japanese. There's no breakfast nor is the place continually staffed but the owner who speaks English is around quite a lot and is very helpful. Short, peaceful walk to the fish market and sites

The owner is really nice and can help you with recommendation. 10 min walk from station, good restaurant on the way, plenty of Coffee shop, near touristic area (all can be done by foot)
