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 KingdomThere was some confusion over where the robes for our hammam would be found, but someone eventually got some for us. It wasn't a big problem.
The staff, especially those involved with serving breakfast and dinner, were absolutely fantastic, with a special mention of the tall, skinny Mohammad, who was lovely. Also, the staff in the spa were wonderful. My husband and I had a wonderful hammam and massage right in the privacy of the riad, and I highly recommend it. The food was delicious and there was plenty of it.

Everything: location, the Riad, our room, the staff, the Hamman and massage experience. Highly recommend Riad Karnela. The location in the Medina is excellent. Our room had a beautiful terrace with incredible views of Marrakech. The staff went the extra mile. It was my birthday and my sister contacted them by email requesting a surprise for me and the whole team were exceptional, they made my day very special. We enjoyed their Hamman and 1h massage, definitely a great experience.

South AfricaThere was nothing to dislike.
It’s was quaint and friendly staff. The manager and his sister ran the Riad. It was most delightful. I had the best time. The staff attended to all my needs with such effortless kindness. I travelled with my best friend who stayed at another Riad. His first impression, like mine, was ‘ We luv this quaint place’

United Kingdomthe only thing was that it can be a bit noisy in the morning and door doesn’t stop much noise from coming in but I suppose that’s because they are trying to keep the character of the hotel original.
we really enjoyed our stay! the location was excellent and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The ambience is also very nice!

PortugalWe liked everything
We were at Riad Karmela in February 2024. The Karmela riad is very beautiful, comfortable and very well located, just a few minutes from the city's main attractions. The management team and staff are very attentive and helpful. We always had dinner at the riad, after a day of exploring the city, because the food at dinner, typically Moroccan, is very good. The breakfast, a mix of international and Moroccan, is also very good. We really enjoyed it and will be back with the kids.

United KingdomI think this is just becuase it is morocco but things were a bit dusty! Also we were not expecting it but our riad also had a kitchen in the ground floor which was accesssed by the staff on a regualr basis. This meant that we didnt have 100% privacy during our stay there but to be honest the staff were not really in our way.
Riad Karmela was great! The staff were excellent and were always available. we were staying in the mini princess 3 room riad. Breakfast was very good each morning pick up and drop off at the airport was also very convenient Walking distance to most places as well
