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.).

United Kingdomif you don't like soft powdery ancient sand, Wadi Rum is not for you.
We loved The Martian Dome experience (esp after watching the Martian!). It was important to us that our stay is complete with modern amenities and authentic with local touch at the same time, and Sun City managed to balance that extremely well. Our all inclusive stay was made more memorable by the hardworking staff and the whole team. (Mahmoud, Faris, Sultan, Abdul, Chef Hassan/Chef Mohd, F&B team, Housekeeping, Security staff etc). The team were attentive and quick to anticipate our needs, even though there were plenty of guests, both local and international guests, the management team check in with everyone as much as they could. We appreciate it very much. The room was comfortable with air conditioning, ensuite bathroom with walk in shower, clean and well maintained, thoughtful curtains design for star gazing or to block out the summer sun/heat as we were there during the scorching hot mid August. We hired a car and drove from Petra to Sun City and relief to see how easy it was to navigate on GPS as it brings you right to their doorstep parking. We drove during day time and avoided driving anytime after sunset in Jordan as our general rule. We stayed 2 nights, planned a nice day trip south to Aqaba and a Wadi Rum experience with a local tour visiting some of the Hollywood film site (The Martian, Dune, Rogue One, Lawrence of Arabia) and just loving the vastness of the desert and its life. We will definitely return again for a longer stay!

United StatesWe should have stayed longer!
Our accommodations were spacious and impeccably clean. It was amazing that we were cool and comfortable inside the tent with the air con unit despite 45 degree temperatures outside during a heat wave. The staff were all welcoming and kind, especially to our young children making them feel extra special and comfortable. And of course, the setting in Wadi Rum is unbelievably beautiful and special place to be!

New ZealandThe camp was fantastic. The Martian tents were clean, air conditioned and had a beautiful view of the desert- all with ensuites. The food and entertainment was all included and the meat had to be some of the best I have ever had. The camp arranges camel rides and safaris for you so everything was super easy and very relaxing!

CanadaEverything is great, only slight gap is hot water at night was lukewarm, because everyone get back at the same time and had high demand for shower. It was fine as it was summer time.
The team is super welcoming and accommodating. Awesome view of the desert from the Martian tent. Traditional Bedouin dinner alongside buffet with great spread. You can book jeep tour (very good) and stargazing (an absolute must!) once you arrived at the camp.

CanadaIt would have been nice if there had been snacks available for purchase or something before dinner was served at 8pm. Having wine or beer available for purchase would have been appreciated for western guests.
The location, easy to find and we could drive in. Dinner was good. Tents were clean. Nice views. We took a 1 hour walk/hike in the morning (paid a staff person $50 CAD) this was a highlight.

SpainMy friend and I had an amazing experience staying at this hotel in Wadi Rum. We arrived by bus, and even before reaching the village, a hotel representative met us and gave us a ride—such a thoughtful welcome! At the hotel, the staff greeted us warmly and upgraded our room to a more comfortable one. They offered us tea, coffee, and juice on arrival, which was a lovely gesture. They also helped us book a 4-hour jeep tour in the desert and arranged a taxi for us to Aqaba—all very quickly and efficiently. The room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. They even let us check in a bit earlier than the official time, without any issues. The restaurant deserves special mention: everything we tried was delicious. The chef was extremely friendly and even treated us to drinks, even though beverages weren’t included with dinner. What stood out the most was how kind and attentive every single staff member was. They would stop to chat and make sure we were enjoying our stay. Overall, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Wadi Rum!

United KingdomThe camp is very well run. We stayed in the Martian domes, which were fantastic - cosy, clean with amazing views out. The restaurant serves delicious food. Haitim & Mahmoud are very welcoming, friendly and helpful. They really made sure our stay was comfortable and arranged for my 90 year old dad to be collected from the room and taken to the restaurant - nothing was too much trouble. My mum & I went on a Jeep tour which was good fun and very interesting. Thank you to all the Sun City Team.

Hong KongNot a dislike at all, just a small notes that wi-fi is only available at the reception and the restaurant. The lighting is perfect enough at night for use, but may be a bit dark if need to work a bit.
Can't expect more in a desert area. Suncity camp is unique and well located in Wadi Rum, I had 2 magical nights stay here. The staffs, the quality of the Maritian tent, the view, the food and everything is perfect to make my stay an unforgettable one. Special thanks to Haytham and the team who always attentive to all guests and meet their needs. When I returned to my camp after dinner and one staff just so kind and led me all the way in the dark back to the camp. The house keeping was always spotlessly clean with a very good scent in the room. I had a very delicious traditional sand baked meat for dinner and all other foods are plentiful and beautifully served. I enjoyed the 4 hour jeep tour and watched an amazing sunset on the last day. Definitely an excellent choice in Wadi Rum.
