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.).

ItalyNestled near the enchanting Old Dubai, Gateway Hotel offers a delightful blend of modern comfort and historic charm. Impeccably clean rooms enhance the experience, thanks to the diligent efforts of Nayeem, whose attention to detail was commendable. The hospitality extended by the staff was exemplary, making our stay truly memorable. Highly recommended for those seeking a convenient and welcoming stay near the cultural heart of Dubai

PakistanLook no further! Imagine a hotel room that provides easy access to the bustling computer market, as well as being located near the metro and bus stations. Picture yourself stepping outside the hotel and being in the heart of all the action. Book now and experience the excitement firsthand!
I have had the pleasure of staying at this location multiple times, and I must say that my recent experience has been exceptionally pleasant. The staff was incredibly helpful, and I was particularly impressed with the great service provided by Miss Seeban from Pakistan and Geity from India. And Mirza sb also good man.

EgyptVery dark room with poor lighting Very poor WiFi that never worked and I had to pay $80 for mobile data. When I called reception to ask, the staff member told me to go and sit in the lobby!! I paid to sit in my room not spend my day in the busy lobby. Some of the staff were not very nice in their communication. One security staff member kept asking me for my room number repetitively and didn’t do that for other guests. He followed me suspiciously because I was wearing a dress as I was coming back to the hotel from a wedding. The location is absolutely bad and inconvenient. It is very far away from everything.
The room was decent

United KingdomNeeds serious upgrade in the rooms and pool area.
The staff and management are superb. Unfortunately the area was dire. The rooms need a serious upgrade. The pool area is drab and run down. The pool surrounding could be lovely but it's neglected. There was still building materials and dust everywhere, no atmosphere or any plants to make it inviting. The food was OK and first impressions on walking into reception is good but that's it. We had to move but I won't go into why. The management wasted no time in giving us a refund so we could change hotels mid way into our holiday.

Czech RepublicA great hotel with a very welcoming and friendly staff. Our room was elegantly furnished and spotlessly clean, the breakfast buffet with a wide selection of meals, desserts as well as fruits. Last, but not least, we appreciated the perfect location - only a few minutes´ walk to Al Ghubaiba bus station, from which it is possible to set off for Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Al Ain and many other cities.
