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 reviewI would like to submit a complaint against this hotel. I booked for two nights, but I did not stay in this hotel, as it is the opposite of the pictures attached on Booking. The hotel is dirty and nothing in it is dirty. The location is in a scary place full of stray dogs and filth in front of the hotel. I lost my money without using this hotel.

Dear Guest, We’re sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. We’d like to clarify that you didn’t actually check in or contact us upon arrival — otherwise, we would have gladly assisted you right away. Our property is located on the 19th floor of a high-end residential building, and it is divided into private hotel-style rooms with Nile views. We offer 24/7 reception and security, and we always strive to clearly describe these details in our listings. That said, we’ll continue working to make our communication even clearer. Wishing you all the best in your future travels, Nile X Hostel Team

Verified reviewLocation was amazing, our room was clean, and the view was astonishing. Totally worthed. But more than that, Careem and Sheriff are extremely nice people. They helped us a lot. If we ever come back to Cairo, we would stay in the same place again.
Nothing to complain about.

Verified reviewThis hotel is quite safe for a woman traveling alone. There is a balcony in the common area for drying clothes, as well as a kitchen and refrigerator for cooking.
Located in the city center, the sound of cars is quite loud, and there are dogs barking at night, but these are not major issues as the hotel is not right next to the road. However, the smell of the new furniture is strong and can be dizzying. There are hairs on the sheets and duvet covers, clearly indicating they have not been changed.
how can you clearly sow that beds aren't clean and you never asked to have it cleaned we do have a 24/ hours housekeeping as you said and never a new hostel would tolerate in any lack of cleanessness
