How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewProperty was in great location, corner shop in the main road less than 1 min away. Close proximity to the pyramids, you can also see all the pyramids from the rooftop. All the staff was very friendly and helpful. It was very easy to catch Uber to different locations. There was an initial mix up with the rooms which was quickly resolved. The room was clean and comfortable, air conditioning was available which was good seeing as we came during hot months. The property had good communication with us with was reassuring because we were arriving early morning around 3am. Breakfast was nice. The hotel manager also recommended some tours and came with us, he was very informative.

Verified reviewEasy to arrive to the pyramids, very generous breakfast with fresh ingredients. Satisfied with the cleanelsess.
Front rooms very noisy and not really soundproof, we had to request to change room getting 2 single beds instead, they wanted to charge us more but they didn't. Very long waiting time for the breakfast (nearly 1 hour), owner a bit rude wanting us to have breakfast at his convenient time and quiet late (10am), even though the receptionist told us breakfast would be available from 8. He was very nice and friendly only on the last day when he asked to smile for a picture and for a review. We felt a bit uncomfortable overhall by walking in the area and on the street in front, we couldn't have a moment of peace from the vendors.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced during your stay. Regarding the noise and room change, we understand how important a quiet room is for a comfortable stay. We were happy to accommodate your request by moving you to a quieter room without any additional charge, even though an extra fee is usually applicable. We regret the misunderstanding about breakfast timings. Our breakfast service starts at 8am daily. On one occasion, we kindly requested a later time due to unforeseen circumstances, but we did serve your breakfast promptly at 8am as per your preference when you declined the change. We apologize if this caused any confusion or inconvenience. Our goal is to provide friendly and attentive service throughout your stay. We're sorry to hear that you felt uncomfortable at times. Your feedback about the owner's demeanor is taken seriously, and we will work on ensuring a consistently welcoming environment for all our guests. We also acknowledge that the street vendors in the area might have impacted your experience, and while this is outside our control, we regret any discomfort it caused. We appreciate your comments as they help us improve our services. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide a more pleasant experience.

Verified reviewIt’s a clean and tidy accommodation not far from Giza Pyramids. The staff were polite and helpful. It offers a view to Giza Pyramids from the rooftop terrace and a sitting area.
There was no breakfast served even though it was included in the booking and we were told that’s not possible since due to Ramadan shops were closed during the breakfast time. We needed to take shower and the shower gel were not provided, apart from for the first day of the stay, even though they were included in the booking. We found it difficult to get the Taxi to/from central Cairo to the location. The drivers were simply not willing to go there or would ask for more than double the rate of an Uber ride.
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We are pleased to hear that you appreciated the cleanliness and tidiness of our accommodation, the helpfulness of our staff, and the view of the Giza Pyramids from our rooftop terrace. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience regarding the breakfast during Ramadan. We understand that this was an important part of your booking, and we regret any frustration caused by the shops being closed during breakfast hours. In the future, we will make efforts to better communicate such exceptions and find suitable alternatives for our guests. Additionally, we apologize for the oversight in replenishing the shower gel after the first day of your stay. We will address this with our housekeeping team to ensure consistent service for all our guests. Regarding transportation, we understand the challenges you faced with taxis. While we cannot control the behavior of local taxi drivers, we recommend using Uber or arranging transportation through our front desk to avoid such issues in the future.

Verified reviewThe hotel was wonderful! It was peaceful and quiet. My tour guide said it was “bad neighborhood “ for tourists, but I didn’t feel that way. The staff were very nice and the property is very clean. I felt safe and the locals didn’t seem to care that we were tourists! I wished i had more time to explore street food! Highly recommended! Budget friendly, safe and comfortable!
The neighborhood was a little run down and many camels and horses feces, but totally understand on that since the camels and the horses are the workers for the tourists to enjoy the Pyramids’s! I just wished the Egyptian government to be paying more attention to the welfare of their citizens. Such a beautiful country, with corrupt leaderships!

Verified reviewThe location was ideal. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. A few minutes walking distance to the pyramids. We were greeted with a very warm welcome by the owner and staff. They took time to make sure our family (married couple, 3 young children and elderly grandparent) was very comfortable and happy. They answered all of our questions and more! We had a great stay and would absolutely stay here again when we visit Giza! Their recommendations and hands on assistance visiting the pyramids, camel rides, carriage rides, and food were spot on and avoided stress for our family. This business, their location, and their staff facilitated what my family view as a perfect and memorable stay.

Verified reviewit was clean there was warm water it's located near the pyramids breakfast on day 1 was nice, but nothing to drink with it like a juice/ coffee/ water. No plates to put in individual portions. Just four plates on a tray with different types of food ... when we complained about mosquito bites, they got some spray for us - which was nice of them
we stayed three nights, during which the room wasn't cleaned/ bedding/ towels etc were not changed. we were served breakfast on the first morning and were not asked on subsequent mornings (even though it was part of the package) when we arrived (it was late, but we were keeping them updated on arrival throughout) it took a very long time for the guy to open up and show us where to park - we had to sit waiting with the kids in the lobby, whilst moving the car back and forth to make space for rickshaws etc .... for at least half an hour if not longer we booked a tour through hotel of the pyramids. i felt that the guide could have been more informative. everyone keeps asking for tips at numerous points along the way and then at the end, they tried to charge almost double the cost of the tour because the cart person apparently had to stay an extra hour ( i refused to pay the extra and was quite upset about this). extra costs need to be explained before hand OR agreed as we go along so the guests can make informed decisions.
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we genuinely apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced during your stay. We sincerely value your input and regret that we fell short of meeting your expectations. Regarding the extension of the carriage for an additional hour, we recall discussing the option with you, Mrs. Moniba, while inside the area. We made it a point to give you the choice, and after your decision not to extend, we respected it. We apologize if there was any misunderstanding, and we did not insist on the matter further. Our aim is always to provide a positive and accommodating experience for our guests. We regret that we were unable to fully meet your expectations and appreciate your understanding. We hope to have the opportunity to better serve you in the future and make your stay more enjoyable. Sincerely, Mansy
