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.).

This was one of our best stays while we were in Egypt - the view of the pyramids from the balcony is exceptional and as close as you can get, accommodation-wise.... This was a priority for us, since we wanted to enjoy our evenings at the hotel marveling at its features and grandeur with a glass of wine in hand. The hotel is modest but clean and had everything we needed. We had spent many of our stays in Egypt in 5-star hotels but never felt at home quite like we did with Lido and his family and Unique View. They treated us like family, arranged anything we wanted with a genuine smile and positive energy. After being in the hustle and bustle of Egypt for 8 days, we actually felt safe, quiet and happy with this hotel, away from the maddening crowds, endless tips and hecticness. Lido was also an exceptional tour guide for the Giza complex. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel and thank their family for their hospitality.

United KingdomAmazing + I have never felt so comfortable in a hotel in my life, I'm talking about the feeling of feeling at home. The staff is really friendly and always ready to help, from ordering transport to accompanying you shopping and buying food. About the room: it's very clean and tidy, air conditioning and shower work perfectly, the mattress is great and the fridge was in great condition as well. The wifi is fast and works well. About the facilities: There is no room service, but the staff is always willing to deliver whatever you need. The terrace has a nice view of the pyramids, Breakfast is not a buffet but it's quite varied and you can eat as much as you like. The hotel staff communicates with you via WhatsApp if you want, which was great for me. They also book tours and transfers to wherever you need and in the way you prefer (in the case of tours, you can choose what you prefer to do). I've been to more than 100 hotels in my life and none came close to the cost benefit of this one. A solid 10/10 for what I paid. - I didn't see anything negative about this stay. Looks like they are renovating the first floor and improving the service (compared to some reviews I read before booking).

GermanyMisinformation to scam the guest into over paying Dirty room Broken bathroom accessories Broken window, no sound or temperature isolation They didn't turn the heater on, so we had to wait hours for hot water Misinformation about quadbike ride that ended up to be in along a back alley full of garbage and horse waste and even three dead horses on the side of the road, where everyone acted like it was normal All in all a very bad experience, a very bad vibe and I couldn't wait to leave there

EgyptI booked on the understanding that airport transfers were in with the cost. I then received confirmation from the hotel that this service was provided. on the day before travelling, I asked about the pickup at the airport and was informed that the cost would be $25 each way. After referring the staff to the prior email, I received a further email to say that the terms were for people who stayed for 2 nights or more. On calling the hotel on the day of landing I was insulted by the staff member; and when I informed him that prior correspondence agreed to the pickup, he put the phone down on me.
Room was clean and tidy

PolandThere was a Muslim holiday during our stay. A lot of noise, slamming doors, loud conversations and laughter until the morning hours. The facility is small, everything is practically at our door. I think the property should not accept reservations for this time if it cannot provide quiet hours for travelers.
Perfect location. Good standard with price.

United KingdomThe pictures online look good, but the cleanliness and details are a bit border line. The room, even though I got the Queen Room with the jacuzzi was rough on most details with stuff just falling apart or patched up. Then again maybe this is the standard for Cairo???? The worst was the noise from the property, from the outside (the windows are not sealed properly at all) and from the inside as the queen room is next to the terrace and the entrance. The staff is trying to be nice and I can see hey make an effort, but there is no actual customer service, they lack customer service skills and any knowledge around that. The rooms are in someone’s house on the 5th floor, the wife is making the breakfast., which I did enjoy even though on the simple side. Yours and taxi is cheaper if you book online or get an Uber. Try and tip, goes a long way with the locals and you get better service.
It has good view of the pyramids. Mind you Giza is quite a rough location so I didn’t feel safe going about by myself.
