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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

AustraliaBreakfast was a bit limited but adequate . Difficult to find a restaurant open in the town for dinner - lots of closed establishments - maybe just the time of year. Cigarette smell in bathroom although a non- smoking room.
Location, view from lakeside room great. Very helpful and friendly staff. Lovely gift of sweet buns at check out.

FinlandNo complaints, all good.
The room had a beautiful view over lake Akan. The hotel is situated in the middle of the town, so there's only a short walking distance to the Ainu Kotan in the west, and the natural trails and hot mud pools ("bokke") in the east.

United StatesQuite dated facility but clean; the room bath was bad and with very inefficient set up for Japanese standards. Little to no English but manage communicate. A bit on the expensive side with no meals included in the price. No much in the onsen as other places
Great location, view from windows- was in old wing unfortunately; stag is very nice and trying their best. They helped us buy 2 tickets Kamuy Lumina. Gave us 2 bread gift on check out. Privatized yukatas and towels generously. Large fridge. No meal included in the stay but lots around. Lake boat just I front of the hotel. Good onsen facilities. Would stay again

United KingdomWe were not directed to the correct restaurant for breakfast on first morning. We are in a basic refractory style room with big tables and no waiters. Found next day we should have been in the nice lakeside restaurant.
Location on the edge of Lake Alan. The onsen. The kind staff at reception. Recommendation and reduced ticket prices for Kamuy Lumina light and sound show nearby. Free parking. Close to gift shops and convenience stores. Pleasant lakeside resort town.

United StatesWe were here two nights and the first night in the West building. No AC basically. Smells smokey. We then paid to upgrade to a lake view room in the newer building. AC! Lovely view. Still an older set up. Onsen isn’t great. Didn’t get meals here which I’m guessing is a good choice. Can use the neighboring hotel’s onsen 2-6pm on weekdays only for a fee. Unfortunately we were here on a weekend. All in all ok for the price.
Located right on the lake. Walking distance to everything.
