Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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):
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.
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...).

IndiaAbsolutely nothing.
Just loved our time in the Riad Dar Fes. Specially the uncle who takes care of the property. He doesn’t speak English but he will try and help you out with each and everything. He literally took us out for breakfast during our stay for free. We really enjoyed our time in Fes and in hotel because of the uncle. Thank you so much for everything.

GermanyYou could hear everything what happened on the street in front of the riad at night.
The property is really traditional and the staff is really really kind. They waited for us every night and helped us with everything (trip to the desert, taxi, etc.) Also they have an amazing rooftop terrace.

Slovenia- lock on the front door was jammy and didn't feel safe - not much privacy in the room (glass door with see-through drapes) - can get quite noisy in the mornings - the location might be difficult to find on your own - didn't have enough hot water to fill the bath
- big terrace with a great view - professional and helpful staff - big room with an okay bed - hot water - lots of shops and atms in the vicinity

United KingdomNothing to complain about. The room on the very top floor has no wifi but there was a sitting area one floor down we could use for this. The roof terrace more than made up for it
Mohammed is the kindest, most helpful host imaginable. The view from the roof terrace is the absolute best in the Medina and the interior of this 450-yr-old Riad was a cool and peaceful shelter from the bustle outside. The location in the heart of the old city was perfect for exploring Fes. Our son adored the breakfasts, especially the chocolate drink Mohammed gave him as a treat.

United KingdomSome electrical fittings not working and a hard bed. But the manager allowed me to change rooms for a more comfortable one.
Clean property but probably a little past its sell by date. Some electrical fittings not working but a good hot shower. The manager was very helpful with suggestions for places to eat. A typical breakfast in the morning.

Don't expect anything flash from this 450 year old Riad. It's old and in need of maintenance, but is located well and the staff are very helpful.

CanadaThe Location of Riad is awkward. We were dropped off by the Taxi driver on the main road. Our host Halima told the taxi driver that she will come pick us up from there. Never showed up or answered phone. It was difficult to find the place. AC was OOO in the first room they gave us. They said it will be fixed next day. Next evening we came back, it wasn't fixed. Then they moved us to another room on the ground floor. The bathroom of this room was terrible. There is no way to wash your face on the wash basin. See picture. The bath tub was flooded. There is no pull handle on the inside to open the tightly shut door. The rooms are dark. You don't have access to kitchen to grab a glass or cup or knife to cut orange etc. They don't give you keys to the Riad. You may be standing outside for long time and keep knocking at the door before somebody will open the door. Booking.com Survey says that our Host Mohammed wants feedback. We never saw or met Mohammed. Maybe the ownership has transferred to new owners.
One of the Hosts Anas. Pleasant young man. The Riad is close to Medina. The City view from the Terrace.

IrelandThe rooms were very cold and the air conditioning/heater wasn’t working. The bathroom was very dirty. The towels provided were not properly washed. The whole place is very antiquated and needs urgent renovation. We paid good amount of money (€70 for 3 nights) but felt as if we stayed in a cheap motel. The walls need a lick of paint and the floors need some scrubbing. The bed had a cardboard mattress. The Wi-Fi didn’t work on our last day. I can’t believe this place is listed on Booking.com and the company has no shame making profits off it.
The staff were nice and made us good breakfast. Sadly the place is a shell of its former self which is very unfortunate.

GermanyWe did not feel that the bedroom was clean. Bedsheets and towels did not felt clean. Electric installation needs some works. They are smoking in the hall of the riad which does not help but we turned the A/C on. The bathtube has a problem. Water is not running out and water gets stagnant leading to a bad smell. The WC was broken. A lot of light enters the bedroom during the night and it was not very quiet. We did not complain but those are things that we expected beforehand. The pictures do not reflect reality. We would not repeat despite the warm welcome from Mohamed.
Mohamed is a very nice person, helpful and gave us a lot of tips. He recommended a good restaurant and was always available and caring. The terrace has maybe the best views in Fez. It is very well located.
