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.).

CanadaWalls are thin, and I could hear people talking late at night. A bit far from the central area.
Very clean facility and good size room. Friendly staff. Nice Japanese-style breakfast. Onsen was awesome.

AustraliaThe place is great and features a traditional onsen. The staff are friendly and helpful. It’s a bit of a walk from Yubatake, but it’s nice and quiet. Also, there’s a convenience store located right across from the property.

AustraliaThis was hands down one of the best stays we have had in our three different trips to Japan over the years. The staff were amazing, the room was huge and so comfortable and the breakfast was incredible. The private onsens onsite were gorgeous and great for my partner who is quite heavily tattooed so often has a hard time being allowed into onsens in Japan. Note, the rooms don’t have showers as it’s expected you’ll use the public onsen but they do have a toilet and a sink. Only thing to note is it’s slightly out of the center of town, but we had a rental car. Will absolutely return - highlight stay of our trip.

United StatesReally nice small Ryokan away from the crowds. Breakfast was a very tasty Japanese breakfast. The room was quite spacious and modern. They also have private onsens which was really nice. We stayed for 2 nights. The first night, the room next door was quite loud until late, but the next was fine. Highly recommend this place.

AustraliaSoundproofing between rooms was non-existent, and we could clearly hear TV/talking/etc from the next room.
Beautiful Ryokan with a great host. The private onsens were great and because there aren't many guests, we never had to wait for one. Breakfast was lovely, and our host even allowed us to take some food back to our room when one of us was feeling unwell. Fantastic experience.

United StatesEverything was amazing! The size of the room, the private onsen, the breakfast, it was all so good and above expectations. The room is quite large, has the small living room space and two beds which is more than enough for me and my mom. The onsen downstairs is private and just what we needed to relax and unwind, they provide yukata to change into. The traditional Japanese breakfast was amazing! Everything was fresh, the variety was amazing and it was all so delicious. The location of the hotel is about a 15 minute walk from town center so it's not bad but just something to keep in mind if you want something a little closer to town center. There is a 7 eleven across the street if you need. By far a highlight of our kusatsu trip!

AustraliaA short walk (10 - 15 mins) to the center of town. Not unmanageable but some people may want to be closer. Knew this going in, so not a factor in my scoring.
Lovely Ryokan on the fringe of Kusatsu Onsen. Nice quite location but has a 7/11 across the road and a couple of eateries nearby. In house onsen is a great addition, and the Japanese breakfast was filling and delicious.

CanadaThe on-site Onsen is bit on the hot side.
The breakfast was excellent! I think it was a very traditional Japanese breakfast. The location was good. There is a 7-11 across the street and a few local restaurants nearby. It’s within walking distance (about 15 minutes) to Yubatake. AC was good even in the hot summer we were experiencing during our stay.

Superb small family run inn that is perfect in every way. The personnel are lovely, helpful and friendly. The inn itself was beautiful, super clean with quite large rooms. Our room had both a sleeping and separate sitting area, all of which was very comfortable. The beds were the best of our entire trip, firm but still soft. And the breakfasts were superb, flavorful, filling and home made. We loved all the different touches provided and will absolutely come back to stay again! It was easy to park in their offsite lot and walk into town for the onsens and restaurants.
