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.).

Verified reviewI had a wonderful stay at Galileen Heritage Inn in Nizwa! The hotel perfectly blends traditional charm with modern comfort, offering a truly authentic experience. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure every detail was taken care of. The rooms were beautifully designed, reflecting Omani heritage while providing all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The location was in the center of Nizwa’s historical sites and markets. If you’re looking for a peaceful and culturally rich stay in Nizwa, I highly recommend this place!

Verified reviewThe owner of the hotel was extremely kind and nice to us, he welcomed u and showed the rooms to make sure they were to our expectation and also asked for our feedback as he is willing to make the place a jewel for his guests. It is well located, however, not very straight forward to find the place. The best option is to follow the map to gate to the Past Museum, otherwise there's no location for the hotel in Google Maps yet, as it always diverts to a school.
The bathroom tiles have some holes on them that go to the back street. One of the rooms we rented did not have the remote to switch the air-conditioning on. The other room had the remote and air conditioning was working perfectly.

Verified reviewWe really loved the old style of the room, it felt authentic and on top our room had a view of the wall which we didnt realize at first. The location is perfect, everything is walking distance from the fort and the souks. Friendly staff who took good care of us!

I booked 2 rooms at Jalileen. They only kept one room for us so they moved us to a horrible cheap place. Not the place I booked. The bathroom also smelled very bad.

Verified reviewLocation is within 3 minutes from Fort, Souk and the Wall
When we first arrived, we could not find anyone or contact anyone to check us in and after asking for help from the museum nearby, they brought us to the company’s other property where the reception was. We ended up staying at another property by the same company less than 1minute away as our property wifi was down. They offered us free breakfast to make up for it. The receptionist gave us their Whatsapp after check in, for any requests or queries. It would have been good if they contacted us via Whatsapp before check in since the Booking.com messages were not working.
