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 booked petra icon hotel but they moved my reservation to their sister company which is PETRA MOON HOTEL. And it was worth to stay. The staff are welcoming from the security till the reception , even if they don’t offer me a welcoming drink. Thanks to Soufian from the reception for showing his affable manner. And if i have a chance to come back in petra definitely Petra Moon Hotel is definitely a top choice.

Verified reviewWhile I cannot review the Icon Petra Hotel as we were offered an upgrade to its 4-star sister property, the Petra Moon Hotel, my overall experience was absolutely positive. The hotel is just a two-minute walk from the entrance to the Petra archaeological site. The rooms are spacious, clean, and comfortable. The hotel features a rooftop pool—which is quite rare in Petra—from which you can enjoy a view of the enchanting city. We also had dinner at the hotel’s rooftop restaurant, and it was an exceptional meal, both in terms of atmosphere and food quality. The only regret is seeing Petra with so few tourists, which is heartbreaking considering the great spirit and warm hospitality of the amazing Jordanian people.

Verified reviewThe staff was so sweet and very helpful. The bedding was pretty comfortable. The room was clean and we had enough space for two. We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The location is exceptional as we were pretty close to the Petra site (~5 min walk).
Everything was good :)

Verified reviewWe were upgraded from the Petra Icon Hotel to the Petra Moon Hotel before we arrived, so this review is about Petra Moon Hotel. Petra Moon Hotel is a nice hotel, just 100 meters from the front entrance to Petra. Breakfast and dinner have a wide selection of foods, so even picky eaters should be able to eat well. Breakfast even has made-to-order omelettes. And, we stayed there two nights...one of those nights, dinner was on the rooftop terrace, so you could see the city in the evening and at night. It was great! Our room was spacious and clean.
My only complaint would be that rather than answer a quick question about directions or info on a specific site at Petra, front desk staff will just push for you to use a guide they know. They will, outright, refuse to answer the question, and tell you they know best and you should just pay 150 Dinar for their friend who is a guide. Aside from that, everyone else at the hotel was kind and helpful.

Verified reviewIt’s very close to the Petra visitor center, only 5 mins walk. Also the reception are very responsive and friendly, showing high level of customer service
The light in the hotel suddenly fell from the celling and almost hit my head. Luckily I didn’t get hurt. The hotel needs more maintenance and regular checks.
