Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

AustraliaBe prepared to walk 8 minutes from the main Kyoto Train Station or 2 minutes to the local train stop (which is one stop away from the main line) On that note, it's a beautiful walk past the neighbouring Temple!
The aesthetics of the space was beautiful - a perfect mix of modern and traditional Japanese style. The beds were comfortable and the room was spacious. Hotel was located within walking distance to two train lines which was convenient. We must commend the staff on their outstanding service, providing a room upgrade and local recommendations.

United States of AmericaWe really enjoyed this facility with everything it has to offer. The hotel is located close to the subway line slightly north of Kyoto Station and easily accessible by public transport. The Higashi Hongan-ji Temple, which is right next to the hotel, is stunning and compared to all the overrun tourist spots not as frequently visited, making it a great site. The spa facilities and massage offered at the Kanra are a must!

CanadaOur room faced a major road which meant you could hear the cars driving by. I also didn’t like that when asking for a late check out they said it is only available for a fee of ¥3000 for the hour. I didn’t mind paying it, but either the room is available or not for late checkout. Trying to get $20 USD after spending close to $500 a night feels a little odd.
It was exactly what we were looking for with our hotel in Kyoto. The decor was exactly what we thought of for staying in a Japanese style hotel.

The reception and concierge staff were excellent. They were very helpful to provide maps of nearby attraction, recommendation of restaurants, even called for tour's opening hours as we did not speak Japanese. The hotel also made available e-bikes for the day and provide upon request Amazon fire stick to view streaming US channels. We will definitely stay at this hotel again for the excellent facility and the location near subway and Kyoto Station.

AustraliaIt is hard to fault the hotel Kanra in Kyoto. From the moment you walk in the doors the hotel feels luxurious and calming. The staff are helpful and made our stay seem less and easy giving recommendations and guidance. The rooms are large and beautifully fit out. The highlight of the stay is the bathroom fit out with the beautiful bathtub.
