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.).

The view of the pyramids from the restaurant is amazing. Is exact as mentioned in the photos of the booking. Also you can enjoy the Light Show from the terrace. Nice experience

United KingdomGreat location and view from the rooftop restaurant. The staff were all very lovely and made us feel very safe during our stay. They even accompanied us to walk to the shops and restaurants nearby. Would definitely recommend to anyone, including solo travellers.

RomaniaThe dinner food was expensive, portions were small, and the quality was not satisfactory. We couldn't eat much at breakfast due to many of the plates being dirty (some even had detergent foam on them). Additionally, the fruits were not well-washed, and some packaged items were not fresh.
We had a very pleasant stay at the Hayat Hotel. Our room was spacious and clean, offering a perfect view of the Pyramids. The hotel is conveniently located near the entrance to the Pyramids. The terrace is amazing, possibly the best in the area, where you can enjoy the light show. The natural juices served were very good. The staff was consistently friendly and ready to assist. I recommend choosing a room with a view of the Pyramids, as others might face the camel stables (and the associated smell).

United KingdomRooms were more like hostel comparison - my view was obstructed by another building when it was meant to be a pyramid view - no WiFi in the room and having to go down 3 floors to get a decent signal.
Staff were excellent and very helpful - Jamal, sugar queen, Doonia, Mustafá and everyone were extrhelpful and made the stay enjoyable.

MexicoIt has not exactly to do with the hotel but they offered a guide tour which was completely a scam. The guide made us feel in a rush, took us to many places where we were compeled to buy things at overstating prices, a real rip off. I even had an argument with the guide as he said we must take a ride in a camel (not included) but we don’t support the animal mistreatment, until I said that in the most respectful way he must stop trying to convince us to do it. After that he took more money from us and he even wanted good tips.
It has a great location, the staff is friendly and the price is fair enough.

SlovakiaThe sheets on the beds were dirty. The shower and sink were running in the room and there was a flood in the bathroom all the time. The rooms were old and would require renovation.
The view at breakfast is worth it. The best view of the pyramids. Thanks to that view, you will forget all the minuses of the hotel. The receptionist was very helpful and kind. Breakfast was very tasty by Egyptian standards.
