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'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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

The villa is quite a distance from the train station. While you can take a bus from the train station, I recommend taking a taxi if you have luggage, as the buses are often packed and don't come very frequently.
The neighbourhood is quiet and peaceful, providing a perfect retreat. A shopping mart is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk away, making it easy to pick up essentials. The villa offers a private onsen, which was a fantastic addition to the stay, and they have an efficient system to know when the onsen is occupied. The free breakfast was a great start to the day, and the cozy shared area with complimentary coffee and tea was a nice touch. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and the free toiletries provided were a nice bonus.

Lack of eateries for night time dining within walking distance. But there us a well stocked Lawons Food Store about 700m away
This accomodation has a warm and homely feel .The rooms were comfortable but having the shared lounge dining area added to the space you could occupy and a chance to catch up with other guests. The two private onsen bathrooms were a luxurious after a day on your feet visiting temples or walking in Nikko National Park. The breakfast of delightful tasty pastries was excellent. The only down side was that it is hard to find restaurants to eat at night, close by and the buses from Nikko town (2kms) stop at 7pm. Most cafes and small eateries seem to close by 3 or 4pm when we were there in April. We highly recommend this lovely place.

Be aware that the hotel doesn't serve dinner, and there were really few options nearby at the time we were there.
Very cosy place to stay in Nikko. The common area is very nice with lovely furniture in a cosy atmosphere. The onsen is really enjoyable after spending the day discovering Nikko's area. We really enjoyed the yukata rental for free. They were beautiful and comfortable. Great breakfast with a nice choice of sweet and savoury pastries. We enjoyed our stay in Nikko very much

This place was beautiful and has a lovely private onsen for guests to use. The room was a great size and breakfast was simple but enough to start the day off with a bang. Lovely property set outside of the town, but close enough to get the bus in, has friendly staff and a soothing vide. Would recommended and so glad we stayed here but 1 night was not enough.

Google Maps brought us to the beach of the building instead of the front entrance…. That’s literally our only complaint. This place was great.
The property was right on the main road and offered a private onsen. The room was spacious and the beds were comfy. Exceptionally helpful and friendly staff.

It was quite a way from restaurants in Nikko, and taxis were not available.
It was a charming b&b, with a nice sento, the lounge area was very nice and inviting.There is a wonderful walk behind the hotel to Kanmangafuchi Abyss which is a must to see the cemetery and the jizos lining the river. It was stunning.

Location is a little far out from the Nikko town area and the nearest supermarket is a bit of a walk away. If you're driving however, it wouldn't be an issue.
The hotel had a very cozy and homely feeling. I liked the lounge area with the small fireplace. Onsen was very spacious and clean. There were daily necessities (shampoo, body wash, facial wash & skin care) and a hair dryer. Room for a solo traveler was big and comfy. The receptionist was very friendly and I liked the information booklet that showed dining options around the area. I also liked how we could choose from a variety of pastries for breakfast, coffee and tea was also provided. Overall, I really liked my stay and would definitely come again when I visit Nikko!

The onsen was great because the whole family could go in at once and the lounge area was really nice for the little one because of the play corner. The breakfast was mostly pastries which was a nice change of pace from the Japanese style breakfasts we had at other places we stayed on the trip. Overall was great and no real complaints from me.
