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...).

SpainWe stayed for five nights in this wonderful Riad, situation in the Old Medina.From being met at the airport, and escorted then to the Riad by Abdo the assistant Manager, we cannot express how exceptional the staff, service, eye to detail and genuine desire to make our stay memorable was. We booked a Superior Suite, with a seating area, very comfortable bed, and extremely quiet, after the manic traffic and noise in the Souks. Breakfast was include, with a daily selection of home made pastries and fruit all served in the Riads Court Yard or on the roof terrace. Abdo, arranged a private tour for us to the Atlas Mountains, a full day with amazing guides, and local driver.Not to be missed. A truly great stay, and we can't wait to return. Thank You to all the staff, amazing service.

Hidden gem behind door set in pink rendered wall. The outside gave no hint of the cool marble interior surrounding 2 courtyard gardens and plunge pool or the scent of fragrant oil. Amazing breakfast of local fresh produce. Helpfulness of host. Cleanliness and gorgeous bathroom products. Room of excellent standard yet in keeping with tradition.

United KingdomOur room was spacious but it wasn't massive given that it was described as a suite but I could tell this in advance from the photos and so wasn't surprised. It did have windows on both sides and was nice and cool.
A great breakfast that varied each day. Plenty of food including fresh fruit, breads, yoghurt and either eggs or pastries or something else.

United States of AmericaMy only complaint is that noise travels easily in the space. But in four evenings, I was only bothered once.
It was a beautiful oasis. There were several areas to rest and relax, including the comfortable rooftop. The decor was minimalistic and classic, and the rooms (we had two) were both spacious and clean. Perfect to come back to after long days in the souks and on excursions. The dinners were wonderful. The meals were artistically served, and comparable to a three star restaurant. The service was friendly. They helped us book an excursion to Atlas within half an hour when our previously booked excursion was a no-show. They laundered and ironed our clothing, provided tea whenever we needed it, and provided detailed instructions to navigate the maze that is Marrakesh.

IrelandNo complaints at all. However it is at the edge of the medina, so you have to walk a good 20 mins to Jemaa al Fnaa so if you have mobility issues just to be aware.
A lovely riad which offered the perfect base for Marrakech. The room was great (upstairs is better than downstairs level) & there is a charming roof terrace where breakfast can be served. The food was excellent & different each day & Driss & staff couldn't have done more. Lovely toiletries & fresh towels each day. A nice gift left for a birthday. A trip to desert & camel riding was great fun €70 pp Inc dinner +show good value.

IrelandFor women of colour or female solo travellers the location is not ideal as the local men constantly harassed us (4 young women) each day. But for men you won’t have a problem.
Staff are beyond lovely and hospitable. Amazing service throughout our stay lovely breakfast and the aesthetic is so beautiful throughout the riad.

United States of AmericaThere was nothing that we did not enjoy about our stay.
The staff was the shining star of the stay. It felt like we were part of the family while staying here. All of our needs were met and we never felt uncomfortable. The breakfast was outstanding. Each morning, there was something a little different. My sister and I are both vegan and the staff went above and beyond to make food that we could eat for breakfast.

IrelandThe area around the Riad is a bit dark and confusing at night especially however the lovely staff offered to walk us places. It’s easy to get everywhere so I would not hold this against the Riad. Otherwise absolutely nothing to complain about!
The staff were so lovely and helpful. It’s easy to get to and from anything you need and the staff were willing to walk us places. Breakfast every morning was varied traditional Moroccan which we really enjoyed. Room was great and was cleaned every day.

United KingdomThe Riad is hard to find on your own, but you soon remember the way. It's best to book the transfer from the airport via the Riad. Their driver will drop you off at a parking area a few minutes walk from the Riad, but a member of staff will meet you and guide you to the Riad. On arrival, you are welcomed with a mint tea in the courtyard.
The staff at Riad Sapphire are charming and friendly. They arranged excursions for us into the Atlas Mountains and to a country club, and advised on interesting places to visit in Marrakech. They couldn't have been more helpful. A delicious breakfast is served in the cool courtyard, and an excellent dinner on the roof (although you need to pre-order it). I used the hammam at the Riad which was a very good experience.

United KingdomThe Riad was beautiful, clean and tidy. We stayed in a Junior Suite and there was more than enough room for us both. It felt very safe and comfortable. The rooftop was also very well kept. We also had massages and dinner in the Riad, both which were great and reasonably priced. Nothing is too much for the brilliant staff at this Riad. Honestly I cannot recommend them enough!
