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.).

Verified reviewI loved the location, the rooms, the fascility, the japanese breakfast
Although the staff were really nice, no one really spoke english so it was difficult to communicate. we weren’t informed at check in that the rooms are only cleaned if you notify it leaving a card at the door, so our room wasn’t cleaned. We couldn’t get recommmendations for restaurants as the staff didn’t really know any.
Thank you very much for staying with us and for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed our location, room, facilities, and traditional Japanese breakfast. However, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused regarding our limited English communication, the lack of explanation about the room cleaning procedure at check-in, and our insufficient restaurant recommendations. We will work to improve our multilingual support, ensure clearer guidance at check-in, and enhance our staff’s knowledge of local dining options to provide a more comfortable experience for all our guests. Thank you again for your valuable comments. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future. SOKI KANAZAWA

Verified reviewThe location is fantastic, right across from the fish market, and we were able to walk almost everywhere during our stay. It’s a great base for exploring the area. The rooms are small, but the beds were comfortable. We had two rooms for our family of four (with two teens)—and that was definitely necessary. I wouldn’t recommend trying to fit a family with older kids into one room unless your children are still quite young. The onsen was a nice touch, though not very large, especially when busy. Still, it was clean and a relaxing way to end the day.
One room we booked—the corner king—had an odd layout. A large, low table took up nearly all the floor space and couldn’t be moved, which made it difficult to walk around the room. Some of the other design details in the room felt off as well, with functionality sacrificed for aesthetics
Thank you for taking your time to leave your feedback. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused despite the fact that you had chosen us from amongst many others this time. We will take your feedback seriously and review our service to be SOKI ('SO' means "bare", "simplicity" and "plain", 'KI' means "vessel") to every guest. Thank you again for leaving us your feedback.
