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.).

PortugalNot being able to stay longer..................................
We loved everything! The privacy of being in our own riad (Dar Bleu), the convenience of having breakfast served in our own home, the excellent food prepared by lovely Houda, the location (quiet but very close to the main square) and above all, the friendliness of all the staff who always greeted us with a smile and made us feel welcome! We will be back, Inshallah...

United KingdomLocation was great, just off from the main square. The riad was lovely with lots of room for us all. It was great to have Houda cook us breakfast every morning. We didn't realise we had a personal chef cooking for us! It was a great unexpected surprise. Her cooking was fantastic :)

United KingdomWe did find the Spa treatment at the hotel can be improved by being slightly gentler and for the staff to be more aware of the guests' belongings as one of our hats was splashed with massage oils in the dark room. We also faced difficulties with the Agafay tour booked in the last day. The pick up was late, the lunch was late and the return journey was quite eventful. I would suggest that perhaps the hotel to find a different provider for this specific tour.
Everything was great at the hotel from Staff to the facilities to the tasty food. We had lunch and breakfasts at the hotel. The staff really has to be commended for their helpfulness, friendliness and simply very accommodating to us. We also particularly enjoyed our private tour in the souks with the guide provided by the hotel. The guide really went over and above to host us that day and he genuinely was proud to talk to us about his country.

United KingdomEarly morning 5am wake up call from the local mosque. Friends stayed in rooms on ground floor couldnt really open windows or shutters due to lack of privacy as bedroom facing communal sitting area and a bit small.
Breakfast was lovely and staff were very accommodating. Location central to the medina. Riad was well equipped and clean. We had upstairs room, good size. Great spa and massage and lovely meal on the first night.

Beautiful house, far exceeded our expectations. Big bedrooms, each with a bathroom. The living area was spacious and the roof terrace lovely. The staff were so helpful. Houda was amazing every morning preparing a wonderful breakfast for us. Always smiling and friendly. Azzedine was in the main Riad ready to help at all hours. Thank you so much for making our trip special.

United KingdomThe location is quite hard to find and almost impossible to access by car. This could have been made clearer. The suggested car parking is about a 15-20 minute walk away through the busiest part of the medina.
The staff were excellent, very attentive, friendly and informative. The room was ready and prepared to a high standard.

United KingdomAbsolutely nothing: we loved staying in this riad.
Being situated only five minutes walk from the main square and two minutes from our favourite Marrakech restaurant not to mention the souks and many street food options this riad's location is absolutely perfect, an elegant and spacious oasis of calm in the hectic medina. It's decor is of a high standard and is in a contemporary but still very Moroccan style. The staff were all charming and very helpful, offering all the information, help and assistance that you could require. The breakfast was in a typical Moroccan hotel style but done to a high standard and the coffee was exceptional. To begin the day in such oppulent surroundings was a delight. Proximity to a mosque and it's regular calls to prayer might be a problem for some (I'm a light sleeper) but we love the sound and thoroughly enjoy being immersed in this aspect of Moroccan life. The roof terrace offers somewhere peaceful to chill out and there are great views of the Atlas mountains (snow-capped on our March visit) on the horizon. We've been visiting Marrakech for over twenty years, always staying in the medina, and this is definitely one of best riads we've ever stayed in.

AustraliaWe stayed in the wonderful 4-bedroom house, which was honestly a magical stay. The rooms and facilities were fantastic. Location was prime, being only minutes away from the heart of the madinah and its wonderful chaos. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by Hasan, who was so helpful and hardworking in getting our bags to and from our rooms. This was followed by Ayman, who gave us all the necessary information we needed for our stay. Our favourite though, the beautiful Jamileh (chef) that made our stay so extra special. Apart from her excellent breakfast/cooking each morning, her kindness was unmatched. If you get the opportunity to go to Marrakesh, I would highly recommend you stay at Riad L'Etoile D'Orient. Especially if you are a bigger group, staying in the 4-bedroom house would be the perfect stay in Marrakesh.
