We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

New Zealandwifi is a bit weak in the room. and since it's in town it's quite noisy. but i dont know how to compare as it's my first time in cairo. so maybe in town is going be noisy no matter where you live.
walking distance to town centre and McDonald's. good location - a bit hard to find at first but once you found it it's easy to access from the museum or nile… clean and spacious room ⭐️ also staffs are friendly 👍

The location of the hotel is great, right in downtown near a lot of attractions. Staff was very kind and helpful. The room was okay, good enough for a couple of nights.

United StatesThe one thing that I didn't like is the attempt that the staff made to sell me a Nile River boat cruise. The receptionist made a deliberate point to do this immediately after I checked in and after that the gentlemen that led me to my room did the same thing. Not that they did this in a rude way or anything like that but every visitor to Egypt already knows about Nile River cruises and that literally every hotel in Egypt can arrange these, as well as any other type of outing. No one needs to be informed of this, certainly not more than once even before they have reached their room for the first time. I suppose this hotel has a deal with someone who operates one of these cruises. Anyway, I'm interested in wasting my money on a river boat cruise, so I politely declined.
I spent a couple of.nights in room 205. This room, as well as the entire hotel space from what I could see appeared to have been very recently renovated. or either it is maintained extremely well. Whatever the case may be, room 205 was spotless. I suspect the other rooms are also. Another thing I liked about this room was the silence. Other than the occasional sound of other doors on the floor opening and closing and some conversations I heard outside my door, in the hallway, it was a very quiet space. The staff was also very responsive. This is particularly important in this hotel because the main door to access all the rooms on the second floor is closed and locked between midnight and 08:00 and can only be unlocked from the outside. So, if you want to leave the floor between midnight and 08:00 to go outside, you must use a phone hanging on the wall beside the door to call someone to come and unlock the door for you from the outside. I had to leave my room a couple of times between.midnight and 08:00 and someone was there to unluck the door within a minute everytime, so this set up doesn't pose any significant inconvenience.

It was in the centre of Cairo, so I couldn't reasonably expect it to be quiet and anyone staying in a budget downtown hotel should take earplugs, so it's no fault of theirs. The staff were young, pleasant and very helpful on any occasion. There was always one of them at the desk, so security was strong. Again, it was the hardworking, supportive, positive attitude of the staff which made all the difference.
