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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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.).

FranceIn our last day we booked an activity to go to Abu Simbel with the hotel that started at 3:30 am and we came back around 12:30pm. We asked them before if we could do the checkout after the excursion and they didn’t want to :( knowing that the checkout was possible until 12pm so we would have been late only for 30 minutes.
Nice hotel, room was spacious with a nice Nile view.

NetherlandsThe hotel has seen its best years and is a bit run down (area around shower, carpet), not best in cleaning the room (light sockets were very dirty, telephone was quite dirty), stone around sink was not very clean either. We had a suite, all roms were very dark with the exception of the main bedroom (which had amazing views to the Nile). No attention for detail in the room (no chairs to sit in the balcony overlooking the Nile, but they did place them at my request). We were 4 persons but they only had one room key which was not very convenient, and they could not give us an additional one. However they would send someone to open the door for us when necessary
Good location, good beds, wide variety of breakfast (though not very continental, it caters more towards middle east breakfast). Roof terrace (with bar) has excellent views over the Nile and you can enjoy an evening there while having a drink. Pool in the roof was nice too. Outstanding service, all staff is extremely welcome and will do its best to make your stay comfortable.

Spacious, really clean rooms with all the facilities you might need. Really close to the train station, only 6 minutes' walk. The side view was okay, but I wouldn't stay on the balcony for long.

United KingdomAlthough I had a wonderful night, there was an issue of banging noise that happened in early hours. Around 3.30 am, there was a continuous knocking sound from upstairs, which lasted 15 mins.
Room was comfortable and well presented. It was also in the middle of town and easy access to the train station. Easy access to restaurants and taxi's

GermanyRooms are on the older side with windows not closing properly. With the hotel being on the main road, this can get quite noisy, also at night. Staff are 'in" on overcharging tourists for activities/trips, so don't accept the first price quoted.
Location is very central. Staff are making an effort to be helpful (although clearly motivated by ratings).. rooftop terrace with small swimming pool and nice view. Breakfast is good but not great. Overall decent value for money..

United StatesThe room did show signs of aging, suggesting a need for updated furniture and carpeting.
The hotel's location is truly a plus, situated right in front of the Nile River waterfront. This prime location made it incredibly convenient for us to travel to Elephantine Island. Regarding breakfast, the hotel offered a satisfying array of choices, meeting our expectations. The room size surpassed our expectations given the amount we paid; it was remarkably spacious for three of us, featuring a living room and two bedrooms.

FranceIt seems a common problem in Egypt, the sound isolation of the windows was very bad and considering that the hotel is located on Aswan main road there was quite some noise even at the fifth floor.
The hotel is a modern building located in Aswan city centre on the main road parallel to the Nile. It is not far from the train station and very close to the souk. The room we stayed was on the fifth floor and had a superb view over the Nile. The room was well equipped and comfortable.

JapanWe would like say thank you to Mr. Salah, the front desk manager of Citymax Aswan. He speaks perfect English and helped us a lot. Including to make phone call to the tour company which listed on BOOKING.COM. No one came to pick us up, and the phone number posted on Booking.com was impossible to reach out. We tried so many time to contact BOOKING.COM though, they just didn’t response and ignore us at all. And our money didn’t get refund yet til now. Book tour thru Citymax hotel should be a reliable choice. Strongly suggest NOT to book any tour from booking.com, it’s a scam!!!
