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.).

PolandThings to consider when booking the stay. 1. They are offering the room when it's not avaible to stay and relocating you for a first night to a different hotel with much lower standard. I was offered only little compensation which doesn't even cover the differance in the room rates posted on Booking.com. My request for an adequate refund wasn't replied at all. 2. I was requested to pay on spot even when they know they have no ready room for you, overpaid 10 EUR more by mistake and they took it without a word. 3. There was a poor breakfast selection, no eggs and nothing changes for a three nights stay. 4. I was sold the papyrus of Nefretete with convicing me it's a Cleopatra, typical Egyptian sells tactics even when expect a hotel to be scam free zone. 5. Specific location with horse riding next to your windows and entrance to the hotel but it's not a hotel fault. It's just the area.
Place to stay for - amazing view on pyramids from rooftop terrace - personel willing to help you in arranging the transport for your trip with your preferences and giving some valuable recommedations for your route

The staff was extremely friendly and willing to help with everything. Jimmy Sr. walked us to a SIM card store and ATM when we went down to reception to ask about the whereabouts. Mama Jimmy made the most delicious traditional Egyptian food. Highly recommend.

United StatesNot a big deal, but it was a little tricky for the Ubers to find the property. But once we learned the area it was manageable.
My husband and I had an AMAZING stay at Jimmy Pyramids View during our time in Cairo. A. Jimmy and M. Jimmy’s hospitality are unmatched! They made us feel at home that it was as if we were visiting and staying with family. We coordinated our tours/excursions with them which was very convenient and easy. We could not get enough of the rooftop balcony with the view of the pyramids. This may be one of the best places we’ve stayed in out of the 35 countries we have visited.

AustraliaWow, what an extraordinary and incredible experience! I am at loss for words how incredible my stay was at Jimmy Pyramids View hotel! I initially booked for the views and because someone else said this is the best hotel in Giza and I was assured of both when I got here! Truly exquisite look over the pyramids from the hotel rooftop but my highlight of the whole stay was how welcoming their whole family was and how much they made me feel like home. The Jimmy Pyramid family goes out of their way to make sure you feel comfortable and are well looked after, they can take you horseback riding in the desert and organise tours. Everything was super clean and tidy, there were tasty local meals on the menu, the hotel is in a in a safe neighbourhood. Can not recommend this place enough for an unforgettable experience of Egypt! :)

TurkeyToilet floor. The breakfast was insufficient and tasteless. The location was so bad we didn't feel safe and couldn't sleep.
Definitely a place where family should not stay. We were deceived by the visuals and made a reservation to stay in the pyramid view, but unfortunately the location is in a very bad neighborhood and we did not feel safe at all. In terms of location, yes, it is close to the pyramids, but the neighborhood it is located in is a dangerous one. Even by car, we were cut off while we were passing by. The sink of our room was very dirty, apart from that, the breakfast was unfortunately tasteless. The room they gave as a pyramid view was facing the construction. The receptionist was very polite and helpful, but other than that, we were not satisfied at all and we definitely do not recommend it. For your safety, we recommend that you stay in hotels near the Nile river. We don't understand how this hotel is rated so highly. Staff got full marks from us, but the hotel was very bad.

The best hotel in Giza! Hotel staff were so so amazing… Breakfast with the most amazing view of the Pyramids. Jimmy took us for a sunrise horse Treck around the desert and we had such a great time. The entire family working there took care of us so well. the hotel rooms were so clean and modern. I recommend booking their suite with the stand alone bath, especially for couples! there’s excursions that they can book for you and we did two full day trips with the hotels connected tour guide. she was amazing! even brought us to the shop to get our grocery’s after a full day of touring. cannot thank the staff enough for their attentiveness and praise the hotel enough. stay here! you won’t regret it!!!….

United StatesThis wasn't on the hotel but wish we would have checked the dates for the pyramid light show. It would have been great to watch from the rooftop.
We were a group of 6 traveling to Giza for the first time and absolutely loved our stay. While our stay was short, we created some amazing memories at this place. This is a family run hotel and the it's clear a ton of pride, care and thought go into running it. The view from the rooftop is incredible - we didn't want to leave. The homemade breakfast by their momma is delicious (she makes a jam that's so good)! We also booked a couple tours (ATV and sunset horseback ride) through the hotel which were a lot of fun. Would highly recommend and stay here again.

United StatesDuring my stay at Jimmy's Pyramid View, a remarkable family-owned hotel overlooking the majestic Pyramids of Giza, we got to experience everything and more. The views, the DELICIOUS home-cooked food, the attentive staff, and their eagerness to provide an unforgettable experience. The highlight of this remarkable hotel is without a doubt its unrivaled location, with a rooftop overlooking the pyramids and the city below. As our hosts, The Jimmy's went above and beyond as they took us out around Giza, horseback riding at sunset by the pyramids and even karaoke on the roof! It was clean and lovely and we will definitely be back!!

Wow, where do you start? as soon as we arrived we were welcomed as if we were part of the family. We felt instantly at home. Jimmy - what a character! Extremely accommodating and was on hand to help with local tours and day trips around the area. Rooms are beautifully finished and offer the BEST views of the pyramids from the balconies and the newly updated rooftop. All staff in the hotel are amazing, if you are looking for a diamond in the heart of Giza then look no further than Jimmy Pyramids View. A trip I will never forgot and will certainly be returning in the near future! Thankyou to everyone that made our stay so unique and special
