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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

FranceI had the pleasure of staying for a few days at this charming guesthouse that overlooks the city of Giza, offering a stunning view of the pyramids. My room and the bathroom were spotless, the bed was incredibly comfortable, and the breakfast was great and varied. The staff provided a warm welcome at 2am, and I especially appreciated the assistance and attention I received from Ahmed, who speaks good English . Not to mention Françoise (from France) who stands out as the true heart of this place, taking great care of her guests and ensuring everything runs smoothly. Thank you very much;

United KingdomI hurt myself in the shower and had a big bruise on my arm. The shower was not hot. I had two cold showers. the breakfast is a bit basic and premade not cooked and made freshly. Could have arranged more affordable day trips to Sakkara or Deshum
The bed is really good and the staff were helpful. It was like a premium bed in the UK. Awesome views of the pyramids. There is cheap food nearby and plenty of shops to buy snacks and drinks. Very nice balcony.

AustraliaThe toiletries were half used and when the room was cleaned (once in the week), the bins weren't emptied. Almost everything required an extra payment - water, coffee, etc. The breakfast was good but got smaller each day (if we didn't eat something or said we didn't like it, it was removed but not replaced).
Great location, walking distance to the pyramids and sphinx. Great view. Staff organised activities for us and were generally very helpful. Very cheap. This was an emergency booking for us, as our previous one was cancelled the night before our arrival, so I do have to say it's not what we were wanting. That said, we did enjoy our stay.

United StatesThey did show a different side with another guest from India. He accidentally burned a towel on the heater. They were tiny little towels that maybe cost 1 USD and they all harassed him to pay $30USD and made him feel unsafe. We booked this based on honesty so that was disheartening. That said, we had a wonderful respite for a perfectly affordable room that hade nice enough beds and hot water and a super kind staff. We met the owner and he was kind and friendly too. Overall, if they stay totally honest, they should always be full here as Giza is a bit of a struggle if you are trying to find some budget friendly places. They served breakfast and tea and never hustled us at all. We only saw that through another guest so all we can say is THANK YOU for being so honest and easy.
We are two Americans who traveled all of Egypt. Giza is unfortunately in a state of numerous hotel scams. The top tier are fine but if you are on a budget, be ready. They change the names, fill websites with fake reviews to hide the truthful ones in order to get US dollars. It's not their fault, it is who we are right now. That said, after navigating so many scams, this place was honest. It does have a nice view of the Pyramids and is affordable. If you are used to western amenities, you would need to scale that down and appreciate the cost. The staff was lovely and kind, the room was easy, it was all easy. You could probably walk to the Pyramids in about 20 minutes but Uber is awesome for travelers in Egypt. Our highest review is that we were on a budget and they were honest. That is amazing in Giza. For their honesty, they are literally one of the best affordable options in all of Giza, no joke, we did the leg work.

HungaryIt's probably a common problem here, but keep in mind that the city is very noisy even at night. The soundproofing of the room is terrible, so you can hear everything going on the street (honking, loud singing lesson from the neighboring school early morning, etc), and many times the guests in the hall and the other rooms. It was a bit chilly for us in the room, but you get warm covers. The breakfast was nice, but it was the same every morning.
Helpful hosts, big room with comfortable bed. Very nice view. Very interesting neighborhood, if you'd like to explore the less touristy part of Cairo.

AustraliaNothing at all. But if I had to suggest a slight improvement. Larger towels and a kettle in the room (but everywhere we stayed in Egypt didn’t have this).
Giza Pyramids View Guesthouse exceeded our expectations. It was spacious and soooo clean. This was really noticed and appreciated compared to other places we stayed in Egypt. It was a little further from the pyramids than some others, but you could easily walk. It had the most amazing views (as the name suggests). Just make sure you have the exact name and address handy for the taxi driver. You may end up dropped off at a very similar sounding guesthouse. I would definitely stay here again (and again and again….).

Good place for you to stay, with the pretty view to pyramids. Very clean and quiet (inside the hotel). Outside big traffic almost all day and night, but like everywhere in Cairo.
