How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewBeautifully decorated Riad in the heart of the Medina, within good walking distance to all the markets, points of interests and incredible restaurants, cafes and rooftop bars. The property was clean with air conditioning and the rooms had a smart tv which meant we were able to connect to Netflix. The rooftop pool and terrace was very peaceful and a nice escape from the busy town especially during peak heat. The daily traditional Moroccan breakfast was a nice touch and the staff in the Riad were extremely friendly and always smiling. Said was very warm and welcoming, accompanying us to our airport pick up and drop off outside the college as the Riad is tucked away down a little side street which cars cannot access. Would recommend the airport pick up service arranged via the hotel, it made getting to and from the airport seamless, and also made us feel safe getting to our Riad late at night.
The value for money of the Riad for the location and the amenities was fantastic, I think the only improvement could have been if there had been a drinks service on the rooftop terrace by the pool. Other than that I really cannot fault our stay here.

Verified reviewFriendly, helpful staff. Great location for strolling around the souks or visiting the must-do things in Marrakesh. Wonderful interior and very peaceful for resting. The rooftop terrace with a small pool is perfect after a day in the hustle and bustle of the city.
One very minor gripe, but we have since found out that this is normal for Morocco- the beds are a little harder than we are used to.

Verified reviewThis is the most beautiful Riad and Spa in the heart of the medina. It was so peaceful and relaxing away from the hustle and bustle of the medina so totally bliss after a full day of exploring. We were warmly welcomed by Yousef a polite and helpful young man who guided my son and i in the right direction and gave us plenty of information on places of interest. It was our first time in Morocco and he exceeded all expectations by going above and beyond in helping to make sure our stay was a most memorable one. which we really appreciated as we were lost in how to navigate without getting lost. It was also my birthday and the staff were absolutely amazing and went out of their way to make me the most beautiful birthday cake it was the most perfect and relaxing stay everyone went that extra mile and are so warm and welcoming it is the most perfect retreat i highly recommend a stay at Riad Mandana and spa to anyone needing a much needed break. They also arranged my camel ride in the desert for my birthday with a private driver i really couldn’t thank Riad Mandana and spa enough for making my stay so perfect.
