Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Small boutique hotel - beds and pillows best ever. Large room. Own Onsen although small - had to ourselves so was great. Close to bus terminal and easy walk to places to eat. Nice Japanese breakfast - lots of choice - plus croissants.

New ZealandThe breakfasts were a great start to the day. Location was extremely handy to the town and a short walk to the Yu Road to access the Hikage ski area. Helpful staff. They provided discounted ski passes and rentals. The snowy view from our room was amazing

United StatesThe room can be cold (winter), though they provide gas heaters. Also not much hanging space for ski gear. No lift to 2/f though unsurprising for this kind of building.
I loved the almost traditional feel of the building with some modern parts. During winter time it's pretty cold, luckily the tatami and duvet kept us warm. The bathroom was clean and pretty standard. The Japanese breakfast was amazing, though not for everyone. I love that it was nearby the main bus stop (chuo) and close to downtown food/shopping area. The staff was also very nice and helpful, remember to use the shipping to airport service (Min. 2days). In terms of noise, it felt quiet, though most likely our kids were more noisy. If you here for skiing etc, then be warned there is a 15 min uphill hike to the Yu road, which is effectively (Luckily) a long long up hill escalator. If you do stay, remember to pickup discount ticket and use their rental and to keep it up the mountain rental at the Hikaga stop. Of course after skiing onsen was great too.

AustraliaIt is Japan so not a deal breaker but storage, hanging space a little limited for 2 people with ski gear & 2 suitcases. Only place to sit was on the bed. It would be nice if there was somewhere for a chair. Ski lifts a decent up hill walk away, would be advisable to get driven up if carrying skis.
Staff fantastic, very friendly, nothing too much trouble. Great view of mountains. Good sized rooms for Japan. Dinner was excellent. Good location at bottom of the village close to main bus stop. 5 minute walk to shops & restaurants. Would definitely stay again.

CanadaThe price was high in comparison with other similar properties in the area. Also, the property did not have an elevator so it made moving the luggage up and down the stairs inconvenient.
The property was in a good location, about 150 metres from the heart of the busy centre of the village. The room was very clean. The suite we had could accommodate up to 5 people, even though we were only two. It would have been tight and would not have offered enough privacy even for close friends if there were 5 people with boots and helmets and ski clothes. The property offered a public onsen for hotel guests and there was even a private onsen that guests could rent if they wanted.

Poland- the price was quite expensive - futon was a little too short, barely covering legs - it was japanese-style room with tatami, but would be nice to have some little chairs to sit on the mats
- great location close to the bus stop and main street, about 10-15 minutes walk to the ski area - very polite and helpful staff - 30% discount for ski lift tickets and rental! - onsen and sauna can be reserved for private use - tasty breakfast - room was clean and had very stylish design, the equipment was new - great view from the window - good shower, separated bathroom and toilet - check-in procedure was convenient - enter all data online beforehand and after arrival just input the code on tablet, no need to fill forms by hand - welcome snack
