Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

GermanyThe room was not so cleaner than we expected. In winter season the room is cold in morning and night. So you have to be well prepared.
The view from the room is amazingly good. The manager Islam is a kind and nice guy. He arranged the best private local guide Sami for two days including visit to pyramid complex in Giza, Saqqara pyramid, the Egyptian Museum of Cairo,Citadel and old Cairo. The breakfast is simple but you can experience the simple local taste that we were satisfied enough.

United StatesThe tour offered by the hotel ended up costing much more than initially expected because of stopping at tourist-trap factories and stores with an expectation to buy something at each,
Location was insane! Amazing view of the pyramids right outside on the balcony. Amazing staff, Islam and Youssef were amazingly helpful and attentive. Would 100% recommend this stay.

AustraliaExcellent view of the pyramids, you can’t get any closer to them and no other hotel is closer when you look over the edge. You can see and hear the pyramid sound and light show which is a nice addition to watch after dark. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

AustraliaLots of stairs to reach the viewing balcony so anyone with difficulty would have trouble. That was to the top balcony but new rooms would not be so many steps.
The property was in a prime location. True to the photo. There are lots of renovations going on atm but are scheduled to be finished in 15 days. Then this will be great.

CanadaThis place is a work in progress. The beds are in desperate need of replacement. We were warned based on previous reviews and brought our own sheets and were then able pile all the blankets and duvet on top of the mattress making the bed overall ok so not an issue for us. We stayed two nights, I would have expected the room to be cleaned after the first night, but it wasn't. The lack of an elevator could be an issue for some.
The view is amazing every bit as good as the pictures. The staff were great - before we arrived they answered every question we had very quickly. While we were there they carried our luggage upstairs when we arrived, then downstairs when we left then upstairs and downstairs again when our guide told us that we had to store our luggage at the hotel while we were at the pyramids. We had to press them to take a tip - the ONLY time that this happened in Egypt.

They accommodated us even though we arrived at 1am and left at 6am (we were just passing through) the view of the pyramids is amazing! And they kindly prepared a breakfast box for us to have early in the morning before we left.

United StatesThe view of the pyramids is absolutely amazing! We could spend all evening sitting on the patio and admiring the view. The coffee and breakfast were delicious and everyone we met was very helpful. They always gave us bottles of water when we requested more before setting out. The entrance to the pyramids is literally around the corner and if you go a little before opening hours you can get your ticket and be one of the first in the site. The beds are a bit springy and the shower didn't have a curtain so the floor gets pretty wet (just ask for more towels). You might need earplugs for the neighborhood dogs barking. Accommodation was nice but very basic, so it's good you know what to expect. I would absolutely stay here again to see the pyramids!

The bed could be a little more comfortable, and the duvets could use a duvet cover.
Everyone has their own experiences, and we absolutely loved the location of this place. There is a shared terrace between the rooms, and the view from the terrace as well as the bed was unbeatable as you are almost living in the pyramids complex and can see the pyramids at all times and take sunset and night pictures etc. This certainly beats just a day trip to the pyramids. The owner and his father are very polite and make you feel right at home.

The location is amazing. Front line property in front of the Pyramids and 2-3 minutes walk to the back entrance (Sphinx). Close to some local restaurant. The property has great terrace with amazing Pyramids View. The location was amazing, the hotel has a lot potential, but owner doesn't want to put in the effort to make it good. The room is very basic. Bathroom is basic, toilet sit broken, shower head is bad. No toiletry items provided. Some dirty old soap left from previous guests...... No duvet cover, the Duvet was a bit dirty. Room is not that clean........ We paid around over $115 per a night. We don't expect luxury, but should expect a clean room with decent facilities.
