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 are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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.).

BelgiumAn absolute recommend! This is a Riad where you can truly feel the warmth and the love of this family and how they put it in this riad! We stayed here for two nights and it was wonderful. The rooms are exquisite and it feels a bit like staying in a palace. The woodwork was done by hand and is truly impressive! They go all out to make you feel welcome. We were a bit overwhelmed by hasslers who wanted to show us the way when we arrived to the medina but they were nice enough to wait for us outside. We made a little mistake with our reservation and it was easily solved and corrected. Also when leaving they made sure we found the bus stop allright! The breakfast is very good as well. The family also owns a restaurant which is the best food we've eaten in Morocco. Definitely try the family's specialties, chicken pastilla and the lamb tajine. We loved to go back in time and enjoy the sunset at the terrace which is amazing. They are making the riad bigger atm and might also put a pool in the future, which will make staying here unavoidable 🤭. Please do us a favor and stay here when going to Fez and give these people our best!! Josefien & Bastiaan

United KingdomWe only stayed a night and really enjoyed our experience. The shower does spread out onto the rest of the bathroom which could be looked into; if I stayed longer it would start to bother me
The staff could not do enough for you. They were personable and helpful. The property is in the medina itself but as you enter, you leave behind the chaos of the medina. What takes its place is quiet, calm in a beautiful building which the owners have obviously taken the time and care to restore and build. Breakfast was abundant and delicious! They also own a restaurant nearby; once again the food and service was outstanding.

Czech RepublicIt's a bit hard to spot it at first but the owner put signs in surrounding streets so it is easy to find it. It was really not an issue for us.
Beautiful Riad with a very nice owner. Riad is renovated with love and everything seems new so we really enjoyed it. Owners went out of his way to accommodate us with a vegan breakfast - everything was home made and delicious. It's very close to one of the exits out of medina where you can catch a taxi.

SloveniaView from the rooftop is amazing but we were very disappointed that we found plastic chairs and some normal restaurant tables up there instead of some nice place to spend evening there with no wish to go in the bed ….we spent hours and hours on rooftop in some other riad in Fes so we can really compare what can be done for not so much money we think….a huge difference for guests ?! But this is only our point of view!?
Very friendly family and really good breakfast. Room is very nice and clean and we slept very well.

United StatesEverything was great! The only thing is it will hard to find like anything in Fes, since GPS mobile signal is poor in the narrow streets. So I suggest having the riad staff/owner pick you up from the train or some central location.
The property has been exquisitely done with amazing attention to detail. It is really like a palace. The food served by the family is too good! You will have a feast for breakfast. So many dishes! They also run a very nice restaurant nearby (called Dar Hatim) that was also delicious. We went there for dinner twice.

United StatesI had the privilege of staying at this charming boutique hotel in the heart of Fez, Morocco, and it was an experience beyond compare. From the moment I arrived, I was enveloped in the warmth of a family-run establishment, and the feeling of being at home. The hotel, nestled in a 1,000-year-old Riad, is a testament to the rich history of the city. The attention to detail in preserving the heritage of this place is truly impressive. Every corner of the hotel tells a story, and it’s a journey through time. The heart and soul of this place lie in the exceptional hospitality provided by the family who owns it. They go above and beyond to ensure your stay is nothing short of magical. But what truly sets this place apart is the culinary experience. The Moroccan dishes prepared by the family are nothing short of phenomenal. In fact, it’s some of the best Moroccan food I’ve ever had. The flavors are exquisite, and each meal feels like a lovingly prepared masterpiece. In summary, my stay at this Riad was an unforgettable journey through history and Moroccan culture, enriched by the warm embrace of a family who treats you like one of their own. If you’re looking for an extraordinary, personalized, and heartwarming experience, this boutique hotel is your destination. It deserves more than 5 stars; it’s an oasis of hospitality and tradition in the heart of Fez.

Nice place and nice family operating the facility. The operator is very friendly and the food was very good. The operator provides valued information and links you with the city tour service. The operator was very helpful and makes you feel home.

My room was immaculate and quiet, and I well looked after during my stay. Fouad arranged a couple excursions. Everything was top notch and I would recommend this place to anyone visiting Fes, particularly as a newcomer or single traveler.

Saudi ArabiaI strongly discourage guests from using the local tour guides, even the one suggested and booked by the owners of the Riad. The owner said the price was 300, the man charged me 400 and showed me nothing I could not find myself walking along in the area. plus they work on commission and make money when they show you places and you do shopping. so they take you to tourist places where they will make money off you. in my case, the guide also totally lied about the transport to my next location and I made a decision based on trusting his local knowledge.l; this was a scam.
it is a small family business and INE can tell the owners are working hard to have a successful business and legacy for their children
