How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. 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, 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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

This was unfortunately the worst service and least humanity I have ever received in a hotel, which is why I feel the need to explain in detail. I was on a stopover in Cairo, traveling alone back home with broken ribs and in severe pain. After missing my connection, I arrived at the hotel at around 4:00am completely exhausted, just looking for a few hours of rest before continuing my journey. By mistake (understandably at that hour), my booking was made for the following day instead of the night I actually arrived. I explained my situation patiently to the reception staff my injury, the lost flight, the mistake in the booking hoping for some understanding or even a small gesture of empathy. Instead, the staff were cold, unhelpful, and seemed intent on taking advantage of the situation. The only option they offered was to book an additional room for that night at double the rate I had paid through Booking. This meant I was forced to pay for two nights, even though I only stayed from 4:00am until checkout at 12pm. To make matters worse, I even received several annoying calls from reception at 12 sharp, rushing me to leave the room, despite the unfair charges. This lack of empathy, fairness, and basic humanity from the front desk was truly unbelievable. Given the circumstances, their behavior was not only unprofessional but felt exploitative.

Verified reviewWe had a great time. The staff were amazing and very helpful specially Azza (cleaning lady), Youstina (customer relations), Ahmad and Abdalrahman (swimming pool lifeguards), Marwa (service lady), Mustafa and Fareed (waiters) and finally Islam on the front desk. All in all, it was a very pleasant stay and we enjoyed it thoroughly. We will definitely be back again. All staff in general were amazing and extremely helpful. Well done, everyone 👏
The breakfast was repetitive and not a lot of varieties.

Verified reviewGood secure location, not far from the airport. Spacious rooms, great facilities.
Terribly slow service at restaurant. I found the meals expensive, not tasty, with nonchalant staff. Customer service from security to reception to catering can be improved.

Verified reviewI really like the way the receptionist (Mr. Youssef) meet the people. He always smiles, makes the check-in process very smooth and very helpful. The breakfast buffet is very good, several items are offered.
I ordered dinner from the room service at night - it was not good meal at all. The meat was very sticky and hard to eat. The rice seems to be cooked a week ago. plus it is very expensive. I would recommend having the lunch and dinner from any restaurant outside.
