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 use a weighted review system which means that 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.).

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable stay at Riad Palais Calipau! Our stay at Riad Palais Calipau was absolutely wonderful. The riad itself is stunning — beautifully decorated, full of charm, and perfectly located in the heart of Marrakech’s medina. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and tastefully designed with traditional Moroccan touches that make the experience truly authentic. The staff were exceptional, always kind and attentive, but a special mention goes to Hamza, who went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. He was incredibly welcoming, helpful with recommendations, and always ready to assist with anything we needed. His warm hospitality truly made us feel at home. Breakfast on the rooftop was another highlight — fresh, delicious, and served with a smile. Whether you’re relaxing by the pool or exploring the bustling souks, this riad offers the perfect balance of comfort and Moroccan elegance. We highly recommend Riad Palais Calipau and would love to return. Thank you, Hamza, and the entire team, for such a memorable experience!

United KingdomAir conditioning was good but very loud! Safe in the bedroom didn’t work so couldn’t seal valuables away. Breakfast could have been more varied as mainly just bread and jam every day.
Beautiful escape from the busy chaos of the Medina! Comfortable rooms with plenty of space. Very quiet. The staff were all so friendly and helpful. Great massage and Hamam too.

SwedenThere was no holder for the showerhead — we’d recommend adding one, as it would make the experience more comfortable. My husband and I booked the deluxe hammam and massage — the therapists were kind and professional, but their energy felt a bit tense, which slightly affected the relaxation.
Wow! Spacious and beautiful riad. Very comfortable, big room and comfy bed. Friendly staff. The best breakfast we had in Marrakesh, not overly sweet like in many other places.

BrazilA True Oasis in the Heart of the Medina From the moment we opened the door, we were greeted by the most wonderful scent that instantly set the tone for our stay. The architecture is stunning, and the central pool surrounded by lush plants makes the hotel feel like a true oasis in the middle of the medina. We were welcomed with tea and biscuits, and treated like VIPs from the very first moment. The food at the hotel was simply delicious — every meal was a delight. But what truly made our stay unforgettable were the people. I wish I had taken down their names, because every single staff member — from reception to housekeeping — was incredibly kind, friendly, and attentive. My parents and I felt so warmly welcomed and cared for throughout our stay. This hotel is truly a gem — a perfect blend of beauty, comfort, and genuine hospitality.

The property is truly beautiful, the pool is perfect although a little chilly and the rooftop is breathtaking. The staff go above and beyond and are so helpful and lovely.

ItalyThe location is outside the Medina. They say it’s safe to walk at night and it probably is, but we felt safer getting a taxi at night to reach the more central parts. In the morning is totally ok to walk to the main attractions that you can reach in 20 min walk. Overall there’s nothing we didn’t like. It was a beautiful stay .
A little gem inside chaotic Marrakesh. A beautiful quiet place with calming scents of amber and fleur d’orange from the moment you step in. The staff is lovely and always ready to accommodate your requests. Breakfast is good too and home made every morning. We had a little problem with the air conditioner the first night, and they came to fix it straight away.

United StatesI traveled with my son, and while we had a generally wonderful experience, we didn’t love that his bed was placed in the corner of the room. It felt a bit tucked away and less integrated into the space. A more central or thoughtfully placed setup would have made it more comfortable for both of us.
Our stay at Riad Palais Calipau was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome—warm, attentive, and always ready to help with anything we needed. The riad itself is stunning: beautifully decorated with traditional Moroccan details, yet still very comfortable and peaceful. Our room was spacious, clean, and full of charm, with a lovely blend of authentic design and modern comfort. The rooftop terrace was a highlight—perfect for relaxing with a mint tea or enjoying breakfast while overlooking the medina. We also appreciated how quiet and serene the riad felt, despite being located just a short walk from the hustle and bustle of the souks and main attractions. It was the perfect base for exploring Marrakech. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique, relaxing, and authentic Moroccan experience. We’d love to return!
