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...).

SingaporeOnsen closes a little too early at midnight. Would be better if closes slightly later.
The interior of the room was a bit old but functional. Shuttle service from Arima station was really helpful as its a 10 minute walk from the station. There is actually 3 onsen that you can access by staying here which is quite decent.

AustraliaNote that the entire Arima Onsen area doesn’t offer much to eat at night so if my advice is to either purchase their food package which gives luxurious food offerings or get something to eat before you head up the mountains.
The hot springs was great, having both outdoor and indoor hot springs that gives our different vibe and are all extremely enjoyable. Having the ability to share and use the hot spring facilities from their sister hotel next door is extremely helpful in giving you more options to bath and for a change of pace. Room is good and staff are extremely polite and caring making it a very enjoyable stay.

I chose this ryokan because of its public and private onsen, and I wasn’t wrong! Both onsens were so amazing! The cost of the private one is very affordable and even more if you come with group. The locations also very convenient from Arimaonsen station.

IrelandIt seems that single room booking is not allowed to book the dinner in the restaurant. (Can only order food to the room). I respected the rules, and no complain with the value price for single room really. But it would be great that is an option in the future. :)
I have been travel around many places and I would still say this is one of the best hotel I ever stayed. From staff, services to the Onsen, everything is amazing. It is very hard for solo traveler to enjoy onsen inside the hotel, this place provided this option and best one for solo traveler. Onsen is amazing with the mountain view. I would rate 10 and I would defo go back again.

United KingdomNot really a negative but something to be aware of: dinner and breakfast need to be ordered ahead of time. This holds true even for the buffet breakfast in the sister hotel that is connected via an accessible walkway.
Had a standard, Western styled room that was very clean and comfortable. The hotel staff was very accommodating. The highlight are the Onsen, there are three separate ones, all very nice.

United States of AmericaThere aren’t much accommodations for children as they explained not too many people bring their kids to their property. However, it was enough for a short stay.
It is very spacious and not too crowded. The area is very clean and has many onsen choices so it doesn’t get boring. The view of the mountain is gorgeous and very relaxing.
