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.).

United KingdomLocation - although this is not the hotel's fault. The transport links just aren't great around the area.
The owner was very (very!) friendly and everyone was so kind and welcoming. The buffet breakfast was really nice too, and the location is nice and chilled by the river. This hotel though is not close to Aswan, so you will need to take boats/cars to get into Aswan and some of the nearby sights. Transport options are limited, but other than this, the place was very nice to stay at, I had a wonderful time!

BulgariaWe got our breakfast packed for our travel to Abu Simbel. It was very simple and not a lot of choices if you are vegetarian.
- We stayed two nights in this hotel. We enjoyed being out of the city and all the noise and traffic even tho the road to the house is not asphalted and it takes a lot of time to reach the property. The room was good and we had a terrace to watch the river at sunrise or in the late afternoon. - You can get a boat ride from the hotel between the nearby islands for the sunset. - Everyone was very kind and helpful. - There is a small tourist market with clothing and souvenirs nearby. - We arrange our visit to Abu Simbel with the hotel. The car, the driver, and the whole service were great.

SingaporeRoom felt slightly small after our 2 haversacks were placed inside, but still comfortable for 1-2 nights stay.
It’s a charming place by the Nile river with lots of character. Great unobstructed view of sunrise, with an amazing breakfast on the boat thereafter. Staff were friendly and helpful - one rode out on a motorbike looking for us after we checked out thinking that we left behind some garments and wanted to return us.

EgyptOther than how beautiful and amazing the hotel is, one of the best things about the place is the hospitality and how each staff would make you feel like at home. The first day I arrived I was treated with the best hospitality I have ever received, given a room with an amazing view to the Nile. All the sightseeing was so easy to arrange with the staff. I will definitely be returning back here with my family

United KingdomVery quiet, customer service could be better, but I suspect this was due to Ramadan and normally would be more upbeat and welcoming.
Lovely colourful typical Nubian property on the side of the Nile and at the heart of the village

United KingdomFantastic location at the heart of the Nubian village, breathtaking view from the balcony that we will remember for a long time, and a really picturesque room decorated with themes of Nubian culture. Friendly staff, and wonderful experience dining on a boat that is owned by the accommodation. We only stayed one night but really wished we had more days there. Absolutely reccomend it!

United StatesIf you visit Aswan; you have to stay here. They will arrange tours and transportation a good price. The environment is peaceful if that’s what you are looking for. Having breakfast in the boat or looking the sunset was priceless. The rooms are spacious and clean. The air conditioning perfectly works.

ThailandThe man in the evening at the restaurant was so delightful and friendly, very good service. Everyone was friendly. The stand out was the food!! It was the best we have eaten in Egypt, super tasty and a lot of it! It was such a lovely reprieve from other tourist area's, it was quite peaceful. The rooms are very basic but we knew that. We were pleasantly surprised and thankful to get an upgrade with a Nile view. The Nubian Village is super colourful and you can just amble through the village / markets. You can also go to Abu Simbel from here. Don't bother going into the centre of Aswan. Overall it was a lovely experience.

A delightful authentic Nubian guest house overlooking the serene Nile. Located away from the bustling streets in the hub of the Nubian Village with easy access to supermarkets, pharmacy and souk open till late. The local cuisine dishes prepared were delicious. Thank you Kasim for your warm hospitality and for having organised so perfectly our tours and transfers despite our limited schedule. You made our trip to Aswan a dream come true! The perfect place to unwind in the midst of nature. We look forward to our next visit!
