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.).

EgyptIt was the perfect place for an exceptional family vacation. The rooms, food, pool area—everything was outstanding. A special thanks to Yasser from housekeeping, who went above and beyond by noticing my daughter’s note requesting a towel shaped like a goose. Not only did he understand the message, but he fulfilled it so beautifully. His thoughtful gesture truly made our day

UruguayThe dinner buffet at peak times is chaotic and is not as good as the outstanding breakfast. Do consider not choosing the half board option and going instead to the great restaurants in downtown or at the Marinas. If you choose the half board option, avoid going dining after 8pm and if possible go as soon as the buffet opens at 7pm. At peak time you will find unaccompanied children running everywhere (even in scooters) and other guests skipping lines or being rude, forcing you to be blunt in order not to be run over by them. You may also have to wait outside when the hotel is running in full capacity. At breakfast time, we went quite early (8.30 am) because we suspected that later it might have been as chaotic as the dinner buffet. About the dinner, it is also quite upsetting that it doesn’t include at least one soft drink. You only get a small bottle of water per 2 people for free, and everything on top is to be charged. In a country where the can of soft drinks costs 30 dollar cents or less if you buy them by the bulk, it’s quite unexplainable that you have to pay around 3 dollars each in a half board option. The people selling tours or diving trips on the beach were quite a pain in the neck and when you told them that you weren’t interested in engaging in business or conversation, they insisted in a rather rude and gaslighting manner.
On checking in, we were offered a complimentary upgrade to a deluxe suite by the kind staff at the reception. The room was huge, with a living room, a closet and dressing room, an enormous toilet, a king size bed and all sorts of amenities. You get a decent (but not sufficient) amount of drinking water for free. There was even a popcorn maker! The deck had a view to the east, overlooking the lagoon and the sea. It was also very close to the beaches (on the sea and on the lagoon). The complimentary upgrade also enhanced our experience, as the suite was a bit off the track, in a very quiet spot. All the staff was kind, especially the waiters at the dining room. The breakfast buffet was very nice: it has probably the best viennoiserie and pastries in all the hotels I’ve been to in Egypt. Coffee is not instant, but instead made from freshly ground beans, which is a huge difference from other similar options on the Red Sea. The hotel is located in a prime location, in one of the connecting points between the lagoon and the sea, and five minutes away in the public tuk tuks from downtown (there is a flat rate of 50 Egp (one dollar) to every place in Gouna.

EgyptI really like the place and sometimes stay there for a long time. This visit led to significant changes. The room in cluster 5 with a view of the sea needs to be fixed up, especially the furniture and the electricity. If you don't tip a lot, you won't get any of the normal services. Additionally, the room lacks almost all the amenities typically expected in a five-star hotel (perhaps only acceptable for Egyptians), and it is not even clean enough to meet those standards. Despite our request for a quiet spot, the resort became loud and crowded. The restaurants and pools make too much noise. I hope that the people in charge see our criticism as helpful suggestions for a place that I want to visit again and again.
The location.

IrelandRipped off first night in the hotel shop. We were on a bed and breakfast rate and asked for the breakfast to be delivered to our room at what we knew was an extra cost. However at the end of our stay we found ourselves paying for breakfast for a second time as well as delivery. We were given a very minimal discount and a very unfriendly interaction with the Manager.
Very friendly staff, and facilities were great.
