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.).

BelgiumGood location, It was easy to reach every place we wanted to see in Hurghada. Eating was just acceptable. Beach is amazing and much better than other very expensive hotels. We had some issues but Mr.Tayeb from the front desk, was a professional receptionist, he helped us to handle all and finish our holiday on a comfortable way.

United KingdomThe not so good: TV not working; No water in room on arrival (sorted immediately when reported); Parts of hotel appear like a building site (eg piles of electrical conduit/pipes lying around etc); Swimming pool empty (but sister hotel's only a few minutes away with much better facilities). Bar closed by 11pm; Booked all inclusive through booking.com only to find it didn't include alcoholic drinks on arrival (could be upgraded for additional $5/day); Generally tired decor and 2 of 4 lifts not working. Would I stay again? Yes, I enjoyed it. A great end to a few weeks.exploring Egypt.
Have recently stayed at sister hotel l, Royal Star Hurghada so had a good idea what to expect during my one night stay. The good points: Exceptional staff, especially reception; Huge room; High standards of hygiene; Use of sister hotel (Empire Beach Resort); The best hotel bed and linen I've had the pleasure to sleep in.

EgyptI read about this before, then witnessed it in the restaurant; there is a "secret agent" in dark glasses following each milliliter of Coca-Cola to check if the person drinking has "all-inclusive" or not. It feels funny but yet silly, making people feel uncomfortable and causing problems and bad reviews that make the hotel lose thousands, just to save a few hundred! The hotel was much better 10 years ago, everything in the rooms looked old and about to collapse. Strong maintenance is needed. Food was also better before; now it isn't as tasty, as well as not having as much variety as it used to have. Facilities in the rooms were very minimal; the fridge was empty (no minibar), and there was no hair dryer in the bathroom. Water was difficult to control in the shower, and it can easily run to the room floor.
several swimming pools some nice shows at night The beach is clean and suitable for swimming. The room is spacious.

GermanyDO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL! hello everyone, i usually never write reviews of any kind but i have to share this horrible experience with you. i hope you dont make the same mistake as we did and book this hotel. when we first got into the hotel the staff was not friendly at all and we didnt get any information about what is included in our package, when we can eat and how anything works. thats when we also got the wifi password. we knew that there was not going to be wifi in the rooms but only in the lobby. unfortunately even in the lobby it didnt work at all. even loading a simple website would take 5 minutes, if it worked. when we got into the room we immediately had to take 3 long hairs out of our bed. the bed was quite comfy but the bathroom was the next problem. the shower is very small and looked disgusting, to be honest. when we showered, at some point the cold water just turned off in the entire bathroom, so you couldnt even wash your hands for multiple minutes. the food was available at reasonable times but it was highly repetetive, there werent many options and it wasnt delicious. lunch and dinner are exactly the same and also not different from day to day. we suspect that the not eaten food from lunch gets recycled for dinner. in addition the overall standard for hygiene isnt high. some forks seemed dirty and the trays where they displayed the desserts had some rests from the previous rounds of cake (as shown in the pictures). when we wanted to play pool, we were told that it costs 3 dollars. only a few days later another staff member told us that it actually would have been included in our package. this seems like the first staff member tried to rip us off. we booked the hotel because of the swimming pool access. when we arrived the pool was green and there were signs that said the cleaning was in progress. we had been told that the pool would have been accessable the day after 3 days in a row. as you might already think, that didnt happen…

EgyptFlies in restaurant, on the buffet food and all around the dishes. No air conditioning in restaurant or lobby. Room towels were delivered on the third day after multiple arguments Toilet tissues were delivered after we requested One room trash bin was delivered on the third day after multiple requests and we had to use it for the room and the toilet. No shower curtain No hot water in room Pool towels were not available most of the time, we could only get 2 even though we had 4 towel cards. Staff are two categories either very polite or extremely rude. Rude staff were shouting and yelling at guests. Food is low quality and limited variety. No snacks between meals, only beverage. Coffee is extremely bad. No batteries for the TV remote, we requested and didn't receive.
Hurghada is extremely beautiful, if it wasn't for the attractions of the city the vacation would have been a disaster. The aquapark at the pool is ok for young children

United KingdomThis was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. I am surprised how it is 3 stars hotel. Every thing they mentioned in their description is just a lie. The lobby is warm crowded ,dirty and they mentioned free wifi , there is no active connection at all in the lobby and when I asked they told the data package has ended and needs renewal . The restaurant is another major problem, I booked all inclusive so I have the chance to try all meals. Most of times no forks, knives or spoons unless you ask specifically for this , I had to complain to one of the manager to get it. Despite it is Buffet there is somebody on each dish to make sure you do not take extra than what they want you to , I am surprised why this the food is already tasteless and not fresh. The rooms are ok but no kettles in the room , the electricity and water was off for hours every day and I needed to go to reception to ask them to fix it . Imagine in this hot weather with temp 43c I am sitting in the hotel with no AC. We tried the beach which is shared with Empire Beach Hotel and it was very crowded and we barely found place to sit. Overall , I would not recommend this hotel to anybody at all.
There was nothing in this hotel which I liked. It was awful experience.
