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.).

You can really relax in this hotel. The staff is very polite and discrete at the same time. They surprisingly managed to change the content of the breakfast(Japanese) each day during my stay. Much appreciated!

This boutique hotel is super stylish and comfortable. Super large room with tatami mat flooring as well as wooden floors. Excellent bathroom. Located close to Kyoto Station and downtown Kyoto, so an easy walk everywhere. There's a metro station a short walk way too, so easy to quickly reach further away places.

AustraliaGreat place. Nothing to not like
This is one of those nice hotels that you come across not often enough. Great service (they knew my name), bed and facilities/products - super good and generally a really pleasant 4 night stay. Staff really does make a place and here they made us welcomed. They were eager to help and with a smile. I would stay here again when I am back in Kyoto. We found the location really good - 10 minutes to the train and 15 minutes to some main tourist spots. Also the hotel is on the designer and fancy side - very classy and intimate place.

Staff members were all just so nice and warm and helpful! Hotel is very small but the entire ryokan is Japanese contemporary. Room was nice, clean, spacious and very relaxing. Can hear lots of birds in the morning when sitting and enjoying the Sun in the large balcony in the morning. Hotel is perhaps 10-15 min walk from Kyoto station - not totally convenient but they have very very good instructions on their website so made it easy to find and locate it.

AustraliaAbsolutely nothing!
We visited Kyoto few times in the past and this was by far the best place we stayed. It's conveniently located to public transport, shopping and dining areas and convenient stores. It's also in a quieter area. Staff are very helpful and provide very good information about Kyoto and surrounding areas. Room was spacious and loved the fact it had both modern and traditional characters.

This hotel is a little gem... It is a 10 min walk on flat pavements in a quiet area from the main kyoto station.. There are numerous eateries and shops and cafes within a five min walk. The hotel was spotless and staff were so very friendly and courteous.. I would strongly recommend this hotel to anyone wishing to visit kyoto.. We stated for 7 nights and we're more than happy with our choice.

BrazilThe only thing that was surprising was that there was no hooks in the bathroom (apart a small one above the sink) for hanging anything: wet towels or washed socks. There is no place for hanging anything. And i also wished they had a laundry room. They offered to wash our laundry but I found it expensive.
Friendly staff, very good and spacious room with a lovely balcony. Very good tea was provided in the room.
