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 are 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 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.).

LebanonThe value for money. I believe that the overall experience and amenities they provide are not worth the price per night. Paying this much only gives the impression that experience and amenities are way better.
I had to change the room twice because of leakage in the bathroom. The breakfast is nice and the staff are really helpful. Location is situated in the Zamalek area where all the diplomatic entities are located which is a secure and good are to hang out.

United Arab EmiratesThe elevator was always late specially when one of the elevators is not working. The food and drinks are pricey specially hot drinks like mint or tea ordered in the room.
All the staff was super friendly and helpful specially Menna from house keeping team. Rooms are very spacious and comfy. Location is also good with a lot of nearby restaurants and the nile is a walking distance.

BrazilI stayed in the 407 room (which is the highest floor) and the space in the ceiling and in between the walls (both sides) was infested with rats who kept running, scratching and biting the wall all night. In the next morning we asked to change the room and they changed us without problems.
The hotel has a good location with many option around. The staff is very attentive to our requests and the restaurant is a good option. As bonus the coffee at ground floor serves very good deserts.

United StatesThe hotel was a little bit hard for our Uber drivers to find. It seems to be on a bit of a one-way side street. The hotel has a smoky cigarette smell. However, this is true of basically all buildings in Egypt so you quickly get used to it.
Found out the hotel we booked in Giza was a scam about 2 weeks before leaving for Egypt. Was able to book this hotel quickly and for only slightly more than the scam hotel in Giza. Zamalek is probably the best location for foreigners. Checking in was easy. The staff spoke English very well. We had dinner at the hotel restaurant the first day and it was very good and reasonably priced. There is security at the front of the hotel when you enter with a metal detector which is a different experience coming from America, but was appreciated. The hotel is nicely updated. The pictures really reflect the rooms. Of all the cities we stayed in Egypt, this one had the best shower with the most room. The beds were very comfortable as well. My husband and myself stayed in a double room. My sister, her boyfriend, and my mom stayed in a triple room. The triple room was nice because it had a main area with the double bed and a separate area for the single bed. After a bad experience with an Uber driver the first day in Cairo, the hotel helped us to contact a legitimate driver for our second day.
