Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

United KingdomWe absolutely loved our stay here- it felt like paradise! We kept saying that it felt as if we were staying in a minature palace it was so beautiful! So much attention to detail in the decor and it felt authentically morrocan. We felt calm as soon as we stepped inside, there is just the loveliest relaxing atmosphere and the staff are so kind, helpful and welcoming. We stayed in the junior suite (room 5) with our son (aged 7) and it was super comfortable and had everything we could need. The breakfasts were fabulous and we ate twice at the riad in the evening and both meals were incredible. We highly recommend this beautiful place to stay and we would most definitely return.

We highly recommend this Riad. Renauld was fantastic and patiently answered all our many questions before we even arrived. The suite on the terrace at the top of the building was beautiful, comfortable and perfect for traveling with a teenager as the bathroom was between living room and bedroom allowing complete privacy as both rooms could be closed. The terrace is beautiful. The staff Ibrahim, Yusuf and the two ladies working here are so friendly and kind and always smiling and helpful. Free morrocan mint tea and biscuits and water were much appreciated. The breakfast was fantastic and beautifully presented and we could have it anytime between 8 and 12. We booked a private driver and car last minute to go to Ourika valley for 80€ through them which was cheaper than anywhere online and great excursion. Will definitely stay here again if in Marrakech. Thanks to Renauld and all the team!

Great location. Very busy but also more local families around, rather than street toughs on motorcycles that you encounter in other parts of the Medina (in my limited personal experience). Felt safer. Room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. Staff were fantastic. Breakfast was excellent including presentation. Ibrahim was super kind and helpful. Arranged to have some laundry done for us overnight - a lifesaver. He helped us source some excellent quality saffron from a local store instead of buying from touristy shops in the Souk. All in all, I will happily stay here if I'm ever in RAK again.

The breakfast is very rich and delicious. The rooms are clean and authentic. Renaud takes care of everything. Whatever you need, you have reliable friends at the Riad. Thank you all for this experience.

EstoniaVery few downsides. The most obvious one was that the age of the building meant our room felt quite damp most of the time - you could feel it in the bedding and in your clothes. Our room opening directly onto the courtyard also meant some unwanted noise at times, but not often - and in general the riad is wonderfully quiet considering it is only a few steps from a busy road leading into and out of the medina. The water in the shower took a while to warm up each time we used it, and as cool as the shower recess is in terms of its traditional design, it's impractical in terms of the amount of water that sprays everywhere. The lack of powerpoints, especially by the bed, meant having to sacrifice some lamps and rearrange furniture for e.g. convenient recharging of devices at night.
We were made to feel like truly welcome guests at this riad, whose staff went above and beyond at every turn, including before arriving and after checking out - and not just with us, but with everyone staying there. Breakfasts were fresh, generous and provided wherever we wanted to take it. Requests were always quickly, helpfully and efficiently handled. Our spacious room (no. 2) was kept clean throughout our week-long stay. The free tea/coffee + cookies and bottled water (any time day or night, on demand!) were much appreciated, and we made good use of the in-room facilities in this regard, too. Nice pillows and bedding. Nice large bathroom as well. The terrace is a lovely place to relax. The air conditioning was much needed (and worked well) during our winter stay. And there were zero issues with us being a gay couple.

FranceBeautiful and authentic Riad in the heart of the Medina. Very cosy and peaceful. Our host Renaud is a great character, who welcomed us with care, sharing tips and adresses that proved to be useful and enjoyable. The staff really goes the extra mile to make you feel at home and took great care of us (special attentions given to us for my husband’s birthday). I also strongly recommended that you dine at the Riad, Malika and Rashida are fine cooks who prepared a thoroughly enjoyable meal.

This stay was perfect in any respect. The property is a traditional very charming Moroccan Riad, perfectly located in the medina quite close to the walls, so that is far enough from the busier parts to provide a quiet respite after a busy day, and to be within walking distance to the new city as well. The owner, Renoud, is a Swiss transplanted to Morocco, and he will go out of his way to make you feel at home at his place. He literally spends over an hour with you at your arrival to give you recommendations and insider tips which proved to be invaluable. Each morning breakfast is served at the time of your choosing in any location of the Riad you prefer, so you can stay on the balcony in the first floor, downstairs by the pool, or in your own room. Mint tea with cookies and water are free, and will be provided to you any time you ask. And last but not least, If you stay a week they will offer you a free home cooked local dinner which proved to be one of the best of our entire trip. Thanks Renaud and all the staff, we really hope to be back !

The whole experience of being in a well-run, beautifully decorated riad with incredibly friendly and helpful staff (thanks again Renaud and team). So many nice little touches such as complimentary mint tea and biscuits on the terrace on arrival and the option to have breakfast wherever you want! Renaud took time to orientate us on arrival with a map he illustrated and this helped enormously. The roof terrace is lovely. Superb spread for breakfast. Really safe and tranquil - in the Medina but near the edge - so easy to get out if you need a bit more space and only 15 mins walk from the Majorelle gardens.
