How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. 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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive info (e.g. emails, phone numbers, credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (i.e. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and Standards for Reviews
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...).

Verified reviewThe location was great; it is near the pyramids (a direct view!) and the Great Egyptian Museum. It is in a busy part of town, which could be irritating if you don’t like the sounds of the city, but we found it perfect. The rooms were comfortable with plenty of space. Breakfast on the roof terrace with a view of the pyramids was an experience in itself—excellent. All the staff were helpful and kind..
It feels like it’s a bit unfinished, but it isn’t really a problem.
Thank you so much for your feedback! We truly appreciate your kind words and support. We’re very sorry for any inconvenience caused by the unfinished areas during your stay. We’re currently in the final phase of expanding our hotel with new rooms, and we expect to complete everything within the next 10 days. Your understanding means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you again soon to enjoy the full experience!

Verified reviewThe views from the balcony and especially from the breakfast terrace something! The guys in the reception helped us arrange anything we wished for, they were really cool. We prearranged a trip with Kemet Experience to the Pyramids and the guide was great, he also helped us arrange second part of the day for best efficiency of our day. The driver was a true adventure experience in Cairo :D On the accommodation,you can see partial renovations, bathroom was bit outdated, but nothing critical. The room was a bit cold,as night was still quite cold during our stay. The street on the side to the pyramids was noisy, but for one night and visit of the pyramids and all the above positives beat the small details :)
Thank you for your feedback, we are glad to hear that you enjoyed the views, your breakfast on the terrace, and the support from our reception team. We’re also glad the trip with Kemet Experience and the guide added a great adventure to your stay! Regarding the room temperature, thank you for pointing that out. It’s possible the air conditioning was still set to cooling mode we just wanted to mention for future reference that the AC units can be switched to heating mode during colder nights. Our team would’ve been happy to assist on the spot. We also appreciate your understanding about the renovation works which it will complete by the end of May. Your feedback motivates us to keep improving while preserving the personal touch our guests enjoy. Looking forward to welcoming you again soon!

Verified reviewOur experience at Kemet Hotel was great since minute one, Hani and the staff working there were super welcoming and they made us feel at home. The rooftop terrace has great views of the pyramids of Giza, a perfect spot to catch the sunset and wind down after a long day.

Verified reviewWe have stayed in Kemet Boutique Hotel for a week and it was a truly great experience. The staff was amazing, everyone was so kind and helpful, always ready to assist us with any kind of request, at any time. Just to make one of many examples, one evening (quite late in the evening actually), we wanted to have some typical Egyptian desserts on the terrace and they made it happen like it was the simplest thing ever. From our room and the terrace we could see pyramids and it was pure magic. The room was very large and super comfortable, the cleaning service superb and the position as well. We bring wonderful memories with us and we definitely recommend the hotel to anyone who wants to experience a full immersion in real Egyptian daily life. Shukran 🙏🏻 for everything, we hope to see you again in the future. Miljana and Antonio P.S. Your lentil soup was our favourite ever!

Verified reviewExcellent location within walking distance to pyramids and short taxi ride to GEM. We loved walking the back streets around the hotel and always felt safe. Gritty but real. The room was large with very comfortable bed. We barely heard the road noise. Helpful and friendly staff who organised taxi transfers, dinner on the terrace and recommendations on where to eat. A fabulous time.

Verified reviewOmar and the rest of the staff at Kemet Boutique Hotel were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Omar helped us with booking taxis and tours and making recommendations for hotels in the area. The cats at the reception were super-friendly too. My daughter was really sad to leave Simba the cat behind when we left. We really enjoyed having breakfast on the roof every day right in front of the Great Pyramid.
Everything was good. The only thing is that Cairo is a noisy place, so we could hear traffic and dogs barking in the night and the muezzin in the early morning, but this will be the case pretty much everywhere in Cairo and Giza. Maybe bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper like me.

Verified reviewFriendly and accommodating staff
Bathroom issues like blocked sink, hot water running out during showers. There is also construction going on in the bottom floors so it was very noisy in the day and couldn’t rest after coming back from a day’s sightseeing
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you found our staff friendly and accommodating! We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced during your stay. The renovation on the first floor was ongoing at the time, but we’re happy to inform you that it has now been fully completed, ensuring a quieter and more comfortable environment for our guests. Regarding the sink, it features a built-in system that allows it to be blocked and unblocked manually, which may not have been immediately noticeable. We understand how this might have caused some confusion, and we’ll make sure to provide clearer instructions for future guests. We truly appreciate your feedback and your patience. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again for an even better experience in the future. Wishing you a safe and pleasant journey!

Verified reviewIt was not far from the pyramids, and the rooftop view was absolutely stunning. The staff were incredibly friendly. Every single staff member was exceptionally kind, and Amar, in particular, went above and beyond by taking me out at night to explore different places. The atmosphere made me feel like all the staff were part of a family, and their willingness to promptly resolve even minor inconveniences left a lasting impression on me.
Although it is a safe area, there is a dumping site right in front of the hotel, which doesn't look very appealing. The nearest market is located about a 10-minute walk away.
Thank you so much for your feedback, highly appreciated. And we are glad to know that you have enjoyed your experience with us. The nearest supermarket is 30 sec. Away from the hotel, but maybe you didn’t saw it. Regarding street garbage, we understand that these are external issues that fall under the responsibilities of local authorities. We want to assure you that the relevant authorities are aware of these issues and are actively working on reforms to address it.
