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...).

United StatesNoisy area, all night noise and motorcycles driving around. Smelly - if you open the window, it always smells badly like old fat from the place next door. Hot water works often not, only after asking for new gas. Annoying when you stand naked in the shower. The shower drain doesn't work well so the whole bathroom gets flooded, AC didn't heat - nasty on a cold day.
Very friendly and helpful service, always reachable. Location is great - taxi accessible, and you can walk right in the Medina. Good checkin experience. Offers laundry service for a fair price.

United KingdomIt was all ok
It was a lovely colorful hotel, yards from a gate into the old city. The owner was helpful, welcoming and informative. The terrace and communal breakfast room were a delight, particularly the bright decoration. This is a strictly non-smoking hotel, good to know in town with a liberal attitude to the local brands. The restaurant next door had a former NYC top restaurant chef in residence cooking beautiful dishes at very reasonable price (the sole was OMG). Chefchouen’s quaint and welcoming bar and wine store is a six-minute walk.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Sakura, and I must say, it was a truly delightful experience. From the moment I stepped into the hotel, I was struck by its warm and welcoming atmosphere. The hotel's location is excellent, situated in the heart of the city, within walking distance to many popular attractions. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and tastefully decorated, with all the necessary amenities, including a flat-screen TV, air conditioning, and a private bathroom. What truly sets Hotel Sakura apart, however, is its exceptional staff. From the friendly front desk team to the attentive housekeeping staff, everyone was warm, welcoming, and eager to help. Even assisted us and took us personally to a local good restaurant Overall, I would highly recommend Hotel Sakura to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and welcoming place to stay. Its excellent location, comfortable rooms, and exceptional staff make it a true hidden gem in the heart of the city.

The covered patio and rooftop patios are a great spot to get away from the crowds and hang out. Zaïd was super helpful with recommending places to eat, bank machine locations. He even leant me 300dhr when I couldn’t get cash out Of the bank machine. Turned out that I was able to find a machine that worked me my card.

IndiaThere is nothing you won't like about this place. everything was simply perfect.
Though I stayed here for 1 night, would say that this place is really beautiful and is just like right on the foothill of Blue City. You can witness a beautiful Sunset as well as Sunset from the terrace of this place. The rooms are really spacious with confortable bed and at affordable price. The best was the breakfast, lot of variety and was freshly made just like home. Was delicious and warm. Would totally recommend to stay at this beautiful Riad.

TurkeyI liked the location of the hotel and its design, which reflects the identity and lifestyle of the city of Chefchaouen. The brothers, Zaid and Ryan, are truly wonderful in their warm welcome , and they always show how happy they are to help us with any inquiries or offer advice on exploring the city. My car was scratched outside the hotel, and when I returned the next day, I was surprised to find that Zaid and Ryan had repaired the scratch. Many thanks to them!

MoroccoI recently had the pleasure of staying at Riad Sakura in Chefchaouen, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel incredibly welcome and went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The riad itself is beautifully decorated with traditional Moroccan elements, creating an authentic and cozy atmosphere. My room was immaculate, with a comfortable bed and a charming view of the medina. The rooftop terrace was a highlight, offering stunning panoramic views of Chefchaouen's famous blue streets and the surrounding mountains.

United KingdomLet me clarify that the following issues were made worse by the exceptional weather conditions: it poured rain for 3 days with very little interruptions. The room felt smaller that we expected (even though this is a result of a less-than-ideal floorplan). The double bed was the smallest we had in Morocco and not the most comfortable, even if it was ok. The worst thing however was the cold: there is no heating in the room (the AC would only blow cold air), there are only blankets but no duvet, and even if extra blankets are provided you never feel warm even when in bed. Having had to spend more time than expected in our room, it didn't make for a great stay. Nothing ever seemed to dry - and it didn't help that we weren't offered a change of towels in 3 days. I am sure the above would not have been big issues in nice weather and/or with a shorter stay. However, Chefchaouen is a mountain village and an establishment like this should be able to offer a pleasant stay in any season and with any kind of weather.
Our host was exceptionally welcoming, he offered us harira when we arrived (we stayed during Ramadan), chatted extensively and pleasantly with us (in very good English) about all sorts of stuff, and was always responsive when we needed anything. The breakfast (which was extra, and we only had one morning) was one of the best we ever had in Morocco, very generous in size, tasty and all freshly made. You can tell the guy can cook! The small restaurant looks really cool and the terrace offers a beautiful view - must be lovely in sunny weather. The location of the riad is very convenient, just outside one of the main doors of the Medina. If you take to the left just outside the riad, you can take a short nice hike up the hill and enjoy a beautiful view of Chefchaouen.
