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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

GermanyDidn’t like anything as I stayed only 1 night
I did really enjoy the super kind atmosphere and the size of the resort, the snorkelling and the kinda private beach, the rooms and the food provided! And the super kind manager helped me with some currency related visa issues. Top stay!

EgyptThe beach area is some how small, however we always find a place to sit. The rooms need some renovation for the bath rooms, and the AC conditioner.
The beach is so good, amazing for those who love snorkeling, quite beach, excellent attitude from the whole staff especially Ahmed Ghoniem from the restaurant & and Mohamed from the water activities center. The Staff is always smiling at you. Highly recommended, and definitely will visit it again.

ItalyEverything was ok, nothing exceptional. I was in the beach cabin which is a bit old and warm. Is a good option if you don't want to stay in big resorts. There is a private beach, restaurant, excursions desk, etc. Reception and staff from the restaurant were very kind

TurkeyI would definitely tell they need to provide better cleaning.
The staff was very friendly. I felt safe and comfortable. The beach was great. Perfect run away from the crowd. But also it is not far from the attraction points. You can easily go around by taxi. The food was OK but they could offer more options.

SwitzerlandThe damage done to the surroundings by the wild development of resorts and compounds. The house reef is still beautiful, though, let’s hope it remains protected.
Good breakfast. Food was simple but always very tasty, with fresh products.

TurkeyThe location was perfect. The people are very kind and friendly. Mr. Rıfat from reception helped us during all our stay, he gave us lots of good suggestions, about where to go, what to eat, and where to eat when we went to old bazaar. Umbi is very close to the sea, and a wonderful beach, the rooms are very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and fresh, with many different options to eat, 4-5 extra cheese every morning, bread and pastries fresh and delicious, fresh eggs and omelets, very kind staff, nice and comfortable breakfast room inside or garden looking to the sea.

EgyptIt was more expensive than Hilton Sharks Bay! The area is logistic trap; taxis in Sharm generally VERY bad service and trying to ask tripple price. Ask reception to call taxi for you. Nowhere ti buy fruits. Only place you can reach by feet is SOHO complex (by empty non-lit car road so take torch and thar way is not for solo young female) - out from gates, to the right, not right road into hill to some Sharks Bay hotel but road on left from it).
Historically that area is for divers and snorkelers and still not AllInclusive - so its still about RedSea and is still free from lovers of unlimited cheap alcohol. Also Bedoine Tent restaraunt is still very good (not cheap, but reasonably priced). And there is excellent capyccino+pastrues nearby in next hotel (il Porto cafe, but food there not worth attention). It is independent hotel with owner-not-so-far-from-business, so, overally service is MUCH better than in large network franchise hotels of Egypt
