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 it was literally perfect
Stay here if you are lucky enough to get a room!!!! The staf are amazing and welcoming. I felt so at home at Dar Daoud— even in the Marrakech media. The location is perfectly in the middle of town yet somehow calm and tranquil. I recommend having the staff arrange your airport pick up as it might be challenging to locate the first time. Breakfast is also really yummy! The place is also very very well cleaned. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you Badar for a great stay and hope to visit again!

GermanyNothing was perfect
The place was very quiet and nice. My room was cozy and comfortable. Bader was really welcoming and helpful, he gave me tips about what to do in Marrakech for the one day i was there, where to eat, even where to get the best exchange rate. The sweetest thing is that he made me a lunch box for the next day because i was leaving so early and he didn’t want me to leave without breakfast. Would definitely go back if only they had availability!

Czech RepublicRiad Dar Daod is really close to the main market Jema el-Fna. Hidden from the chaos and rush of the street. When you get inside you will feel like you found Oasis of Harmony, where other travelers rest and talk. Special thanks to host Bader who took care of me, explained everything and is taking care of the place. I suppose its mainly to his credit that the Riad Dar Daod is such a great place. When i am coming back i am gonna stay in there. I was in some riads before but this place is special 😊.

CanadaI loved everything. No negatives.
I LOVE this Dar. All the reviews are accurate. Cozy, warm, quiet, spotless, hot water, great wifi, delicious breakfast (fruit salad/yogurt, pancakes, bread etc). Room No. 22 is the nicest with the biggest bathroom. As stated many times Bander is the star here...he is so personable, friendly and helpful. He makes you feel right at home and will help you with navigating Marrakech's sites, restaurant suggestions and he even made us special thyme tea because we were down with the flu. I highly recommend this Dar. Book it if it is available, they only have 5 rooms!

Bader was extremely helpful, offering advice on how to navigate Marrakech, where to eat and things to do! You can also book excursions directly with him (although on this occasion I didn't) which makes things a lot easier. The place itself has a very homely feel to it and as a result, you meet some great people there. The breakfast is also very good and when I return to Marrakech, I will definitely be staying here again.

This place was lovely, the interior was immaculate and very stylish, with lots of little touches that made it feel very homely and like boutique hotel, loved the orange blossom scented shower gel It is very relaxing with plenty of space to chill out outside the rooms and a lovely roof terrace Bader really is an excellent host, he gave great restaurant recommendations , and packed up a lovely breakfast as we were leaving early in the morning , he made us feel welcome and is genuinely a really kind and knowledgeable person The meal he cooked for the other guests looked absolutely divine and they told me that they had to have it again !

Bader and the team were incredibly attentive and flexible, went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and they were always there to help, give advice, or have a chat. They truly made the riad feel like a home away from home. The place was spotlessly clean, the breakfast was both abundant and delicious, and the rooftop terrace offered wonderful views of the stunning sunsets. The location is perfect - just a few minutes' walk from Jemaa el-Fnaa. Despite its proximity to the hustle and bustle, the riad feels like an oasis of peace within the medina. I'd love to come back and highly recommend Dar Daoud to anyone seeking a base to explore and fully experience Marrakech.
