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 StatesNothing to not like at this resort....
Absolutely loved to feel like part of the family as everyone was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The food was excellent as were the drinks and the pool area is just stunning. They have a beautiful playground for kids incl. a zipline - which our son loved. Their camel riding at 4.30 pm each day is a must and free. We also booked Al-Hadeerah (arabic buffet restaurant) which was awesome and a private desert tour - which we highly highly recommend. Anwa is an awesome rooftop bar/lounge/restaurant and Rishav is the best :-).

CyprusFirst the service: it is impeccable. simply perfect. Second, the level of attention to details is really surprising. Everything is so tasteful, and of excellent quality. bedroom furniture, the pool beds, every chair and sofa in the lobbies... Everything! Breakfast was very good. Lots of options. everything is fresh. We also had dinner at Ninive which was also very good. Highly recommended. Would definitely come back.

United Arab EmiratesI didn't like the fact I only stayed for one night. Otherwise, this place is perfection.
Regular visitor here. Exceptional hotel, beautiful location, amazing staff. Every staff member is outstandingly friendly, polite and hospitable. The services and attentiveness are the best I've seen in Dubai. Great place for solo travellers, or like us, families with young children. My 3 year old daughter loves it here. This is a really special place and I would highly advise anyone looking for a break, to visit Bab Al Shams. Probably the best resort in the UAE and Middle East. I will be back for sure. Thank you to all the wonderful staff for making our short stay special, as usual.

My wife had an accident and the staff were superb in the way that looked after her and the subsequent interest in making sure she was okay. Overall the standard of this hotel exceeds expectations and the location is extraordinary.

United KingdomThere was a mix-up on check-in when I was given a room with a view to the road instead of the garden room. It was quickly sorted. Reception stuff could be friendlier at check-in/check-out. At the Spa there was no complimentary water or extra towels. You need to ask for both the personnel, which is a hassle.
It is a beautiful set-up, a large nicely decorated room with very comfy bed, very good breakfast and dinner.
