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.).

PortugalWe had a great stay at Riad 22 - L'Etoile d'Orient and Badr contributed a lot to it - he’s simply an amazing host. Breakfast is delicious, though some fruit would be welcome. Be prepared for early - call to prayer - wakeup calls. The souks are reached in 6-7 minutes.

United KingdomWe had an amazing stay at this property! The location was great, walking distance to the main attractions, souks and lots of lovely restaurants. The Riad was lovely and the owner Badr and his team were great, very helpful and accommodating! They even gave us an early breakfast the day we flew. Could not recommend a stay more!

ItalyA little difficult to find, especially as our flight landed late and it was dark and the taxis don’t reach the property. Still, our host helped us out.
Super kind host, and beautiful room overlooking the pool. We left at 6am and were given breakfast regardless.

United KingdomBreakfast was nice but not stand-out amazing. We did have some fantastic breakfasts in Morocco, and by comparison this one was largely bread and syrups/oils. That's a minor failing though - it certainly felt authentic and was tasty.
The pool area is beautiful, and provides fantastic and much-needed refreshment in the summer sun. Large enough to swim (just) which is pretty big amongst Riads! The location is near enough to easily access the medina, although perhaps the wrong side for some of the most touristy areas (it's still very walkable though, even in the heat).

Italyeverything was great
This place is stunning: excellent location with a nice pool that was great when resting in the afternoon after visiting the city in the morning and before goinf out for the evening. The decoration and interiors are really nicely done. This was a real riad where the internal garden did not have a plastic roof. There was a terrace where we had breakfast and and even higher one where to sunbathing. I stayed with my family, we had two rooms. The staff (Badr) was supernice with us but at the same time very effective: he walked us around to show how to get safely to the riad, where to eat, where to get water, etc... He suggested some good restaurants; some unpretentious with great food and some more touristic but with high quality vs price. He really pampered us. I even checked on us if we managed to get back to Italy safe!! Really great guy.

SwedenBadr is a great host, he came and picked us up where the taxi dropped us off to show us the way to the Riad, and welcomed us with tea and cookies while giving us tips for what to see and do during our stay. The room was also nice and clean and with AC. The shower was a tiny bit clogged so that it took a few minutes for the water to drain completely, but other than that everything went smoothly. The breakfast was also delicious and very abundant.

In the 36 countries I’ve visited, I can honestly not think of a hotel that I’ve enjoyed stopping in more. Clean, quiet, amazing location, tasty breakfast. But most of all, the highlight of the hotel is the legend that is Badr. From the moment I arrived, he did nothing but go out of his way to be helpful. A cheerful face that will do anything to help you have a fantastic time in Marrakech. Thank you Badr and if you are looking for a hotel in Marrakech, look no further!

As for the facility itself, the pool is a great place to stay, as is the common area for guests. Breakfast is fresh and made on site. We highly recommend it to everyone.

ArgentinaEasy to find it. The taxi can leave you on the main road and the Riad is less than 5 minutes away. Also directions on the street with the name on it to follow. Walking distance to the Medina and modern part of the city. Small Riad, just few rooms so was quiet and peaceful. Badr was very nice, attentive and helpful all the time. I surely recommend to stay.

New ZealandA quiet, cozy oasis just steps away from the madness of the medina. There are only a handful of rooms, so it's very calm, and the shared spaces by the pool and on the roof terrace are lovely too. The riad is well sign-posted, which makes it easy to find. Badr really made our stay extra special – he was super helpful and kind, and we appreciated him taking the time to chat and even help with our darija! We hope we'll be able to return one day.
