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.).

South AfricaBreakfast was basic - it could improve more in terms of variety- at least one more option It was very cold in February we had to ask for extra blankets but were given duvets. The heater of the aircorn was not working so that did not help. This hotel would be great in summer. Remember to give your room key to reception in the morning so that they can clean your room - we didn't realise this on the 1st day.
The location was excellent. Walking distance from a lot of shops/restuarants, the nile, cairo tower, Egyptian museum etc. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. They understood english very well. The hotel organized our tours for us at a good rate although expect to pay more for the Giza pyramids when you get there. The beds were very comfy. They arranged an airport transfer for us at an additional charge. I would recommend doing this as it will help you to find the hotel.

GermanyIt's a little cold at night, either the heater didn't work or I did something wrong. To find the location of the hotel was a little bit challenging. Please put a sign in the elevator to show that it's on the 5th floor, then it would be perfect :)
Great view, clean and big room. I'll stay here again if I come back to Cairo again:)

NetherlandsThe first room we got had a broken window, second smelled extremely like tobacco smoke so we changed a third time, this time the room was good… Also, you have to ask for towels/toilet paper/shower gel yourself, no one offers you new ones after a few days. Breakfast is really bad, I would recommend going to any of the nice cafes around and getting something much better for less cost.
Very nice and helpful staff, arranged some very nice tours for us as well (Alexandria with Sayed, we loved it!). Hotel is perfectly located and views are really nice!

Irelandvery minor but there was no toilet roll in the room but once asked for it was delivered as soon as possible.
The accommodation was good. The bed was comfortable. They let us choose which bedroom choose. The bathroom didn’t have any toilet paper; had to ask for one. They didn’t have spare blanket for the twin beds; but it was given upon request. They have some good tours. We got a driver organised through them. He was polite and friendly. There is a bit of noise in from outside (like most of Egypt. It’s normal) The receptionist were very helpful in organising tours where we travelled to Alexandria. This accommodation is safe and you are not on edge when in the accommodation as they have security.

The place was at the centre of the Cairo city and really good. The outside doesn’t show how clean the hotel. The room we were given was very clean and most of the furniture looked new to me and well maintained. The breakfast features bread, egyptian bread, some jam, jelly, eggs and choice of tea or coffee. The hotel staff was very helpful accommodating any requests we made to them.

United StatesI was confused by the directions. You have to enter a large gated area, walk in an outdoor corridor, there's a wide open space, head up the stairs, past a vacant desk, find the elevator hidden in the corner, and head up to the fifth floor, I believe. The place is a bit hidden, but in plain site.
Honestly, I don't remember very much about this hotel.

Great location. They also offer reasonable priced tours. We had dinner and entertainment cruise on the River Nile which was fantastic. I highly recommend. Our driver/guide spoke very good English and explained everything to us before we got there. He was super helpful and friendly and even became our personal photographer 😂. Thanks for adding to our experience in Cairo, I highly recommend the tours they offer!
