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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

ThailandNot quite “didn’t like” but if you stay in this property, you have to understand the limitation of facilities which you can have bath only in the specific reserved time.
Very nice and friendly host. Beautiful flowers and green scenery during summer season around the accommodation were impressive. Air-con available and outdoor bath was wonderful.

AustraliaLocation to the closest convenience store or pharmacist was 15/20 minutes away and walking on the snow at night was no fun at all. On the other hand, there are a few decent restaurants nearby.
Located close to the free ski pick up point (i.e. Alpine Chalet and hotel owner (Mr Yoshi) is super2 friendly. If we ever go to Hakuba again, this hotel will be my first choice.

SwitzerlandRingo-Noki is the most beautiful little Lodge, with only around 6 rooms, in Hakuba run by the very lovely couple of Yoshi-San and his wife Kayo. Everything was perfect about this place, the decoration, the service provided by Yoshi and Kayo, the delicious breakfast, the cleaness, the beautiful onsen to use everyday after a full day of activities. When arriving you were directly greeted with tea and the stunning common area. All rooms also have coffee and tea for you to make and use at your convenience. Right next to the lodge is the bus stop for the free shuttle and within walking distance you have several nice and delicious restaurants, cafés and bakery and other shops. Can highly recommend this location.

AustraliaI would highly recommend anyone to stay here. Upon arrival, Yoshi and his wife made the place feel very homely. We were greeted so kindly and given some tea to sip on by the fireplace, as we were checking in. The whole house is super cute and our room was serviced daily and kept extremely clean. The shared shower and outdoor onsen is an amazing experience which my partner and I loved. We also added on breakfast each morning, made by Yoshi. I would highly recommend trying his breakfast! It was always super delicious, he would make his own bread. There was also eggs, with some salad, and some fruit, some yoghurt too and there was always some juice and coffee to help yourself too also. Super healthy and delicious! Overall we felt super looked after and cared for. On our last day, Yoshi even gave us a lift to the Hakuba station. Thank you very much for your hospitality Yoshi, you made our trip! We would definitely come back, and stay here again!

The hosts were the nicest people, very accommodating. The house and the rooms are beautiful and you immediately feel at home. Everything was spotlessly clean. There is a hot spring that you can use privately once a day. A very delicious homemade breakfast is served every morning. The location was great, in the center of everything and 1 minute to the bus stop for all ski buses.

AustraliaNothing- aside from maybe guilt about how hard the hosts work!
It was basically next to the bus stop to get to any of the 3 main ski mountains so very convenient. A private onsen that we could use daily. The hosts are next level amazing. Yoshi didn’t seem to ever stop from waking to sleeping (if he slept at all) and were so helpful and generous, even getting our ski gear up from the drying room for us. The property was always clean and warm and the rooms are all you need when you’re out most of the day skiing etc.

AustraliaRooms were extremely clean and maintained daily. Hosts were extremely kind and helped us immensely, making sure that we had everything we needed during the stay. Breakfast was delicious and the ambience in the morning was so soothing (before a big day of snowboarding). Also, I left something at the accommodation and the hosts drove out to provide it back to me. Really appreciate this and amazing stay overall!! I really recommend this accommodation to all travellers!!
