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.).

IrelandVery little. Everything that Shams can control, they have done. It is a bit noisy, but I found Egypt a bit noisy in general!
The staff are lovely, in particular Ashraf is the star of the show. He was so kind to my daughter. Dive centre and equipment is really clean. All the dive instructers I met were gentle and kind. The restaurant is on the water, is comfortable and you are welcome to sit there at anytime.

United StatesThis is very small, but I originally booked a double bed in a larger room. I was given a room with three single beds. When I mentioned this, I was offered a double bed immediately, but in smaller room. I choose to stay in the larger room because of the nicer balcony, but during my stay, I realized I would have preferred the double bed as I originally booked. So maybe more attention to details like that.
Rarely as a solo traveler have I ever felt so welcome. The staff is exceptional. All of them from the manager, to reception, to housekeeping, to the restaurant, to the dive center, went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable, while maintaining a friendly and easy-going attitude. When I left, I felt like I was leaving friends. Plus the location and facilities are amazing! Comfortable yet unpretentious!

TurkeyNothing, everything was great.
I am so happy that I have stayed here and met with Sarah and Yusuf (my diving instructor) and other guys who helped me a lot for anything that I have asked literally. Place itself is super easy to come and very close to all entertainment thay you may look. Plus hotel has diving center, if you are willing to dive they are super cool to assist and redirect you according to your level, expectations. They even arranged for me St Catherine visit smoothly. I will definetely will be back and stay more and more!

But what’s most important and didn’t find anywhere else in the world… PEOPLE! Ashraf, Rosa, Sarah and everyone else. Never seen such kindness! Thank you all hope to see you soon Inshallah

United KingdomThe bathroom is a bit old and needs some maintenance. The toilet in their diving centre is better than in the rooms.
Good value for the price we are paying. Breakfast is good. The location is also good. The hotel helped us to book a taxi from and to Sharm-El-Sherik. It's 35 USD per way. Cats are lovely.

SwitzerlandThe bathroom was a little basic and we would have appreciated having a cupboard to store our things. The shower without cubicle is not very practical. The breakfast service was a little slow.
The staff were very friendly, attentive and helpful. The room with sea view The diving club and its quality equipment The restaurant by the sea The bikes available foor free The location, close to the centre but quiet (about 10 minutes' walk) We would like to thank Shams, Ali, Sara, Eissa and all the staff who were really great with us from the beginning to the end of our holiday. We loved the human scale of the hotel and to be able to discuss with the staff.

PortugalVery short stay.
Booked this hotel at last minute, but is was definitely the best stay we had in our 2 week vacation in Egipt. From the property itself, that has a distinguished relaxed vibe, to the extreme attention from staff, to the the rooms, you leave this place wanting to comeback. We booked a room, but ended up staying in a bungalow and it was so cool. As Sara said, it is very cozy!

IndiaThe only major negative is that they didn't provide water, coffee/tea mugs or basic cutlery in the room like most hotels do in this price range. You had to ask for these things to get service. In the restaurant, the Egyptian breakfast is great, but the other options weren't that good. But apart from that, very good stay.
Shams was a great stay for us in Dahab. We were there for 3-4 days and they were all amazing. The property is right on waterfront near the beginning of the promenade. The location is amazing as you can just walk along the promenade to find anything and everything you want. Their restaurant overlooks the sea and is a great place to eat and/or read. Their food is good, but the coffee leaves something to be desired. The room is very comfortable and clean. The linen and towels were pristine. The bathroom was also good, though I wish the bidet worked. They also helped book some very cheap airport transfers for us. Overall well worth the money and some of the best days we spent in Dahab.
