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.).

United KingdomBooking.com doesn't include the price of the tourist tax in the costings so we paid about £20 more (for 5 nights) than we expected when we checked out so just bare in mind there will be extra costs associated with your stay that the Riad aren't liable to pay for you.
The building itself is beautiful and very small which makes for a really pleasant stay, I think there are only 3 or 4 rooms in total and often it feels like you're the only one there!. It's also really quiet in the Riad which promises a good night's sleep after a long day in the very noisy Medina. The breakfast hours are long, and if you want to get an earlier breakfast you can. I thought the breakfast was quite good considering it's included in the price for a night. There are a range of good restaurants less than 10 minutes walk, and a place you can buy cheap bottled water a 2 minute walk away. You can get to the big square in about 20 minutes, so everything is close but this Riad isn't right in the middle of the mayhem and is a nice place to retreat to at the end of the day. I think it's definitely worth booking the superior room (if you can afford it) as it looked much bigger than the standard room and I don't think the cost difference was that significant. The owners, Pascal and Irene are available to help you with anything you need and are really helpful if you need them! Excellent place to stay!

United KingdomA beautiful Riad inside the old town where you can enjoy the traditional Moroccan architecture and hospitality. Our hosts, a lovely French couple (Pascal and Irene) with two friendly Moroccan housekeepers were helpful, polite and gave us a lot of information what to do in Marrakesh. We met outside the gate of Medina and walked with us all the way to the Riad. They offered a welcoming Moroccan tea with tasty pastries. The breakfast was generous and had excellent quality (was included to the price of the room). They were cleaning the room everyday. You could enjoy a very quiet, clean and relaxing space inside the Riad. That was very important for us as we felt overwhelmed with the busy and dirty streets of Marrakesh. You could order food or something to eat in a very good price. They have also arranged for us a taxi from and to the airport. Definitely we will go again if we visit Morocco in the future.

United KingdomIt was unfortunate that our stay was interrupted by a building close by collapsing from weakness after the devastating earthquake last September. There was no risk to guests but it did make access just a little bit more difficult. This situation should present no problems for future guests.
It is a lovely, well maintained riad owned by a French couple who have put a lot of love into it. Zakia and Abdul maintain the property and look after the guests well. The roof terrace is a nice spot to relax, read and enjoy the sounds of Marrakech.

Good location, inside Medina, quiet and peaceful, very accesible Irene and Pascale, the owners, speak French and English. They are very approachable and talk with the clients like a Family. Only 5 rooms, personal treat. Pascale is there for your doubts, Irene asks about any special need like Dinner or any food intolerance

The Riad was beautiful with lots of space and you were welcome to use all areas like the lounge, balcony seating area and the gorgeous rooftop garden. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, nothing was too much bother. Great breakfasts too, lots of choice and lots of food.

United KingdomThe accommodation is in a great place to explore Marrakesh, within walking distance of the medina and also the modern areas outside of the old town walls. The owners Pasqual and Irene were amazing, providing so much important information and welcoming you to their home as guests. There are ample areas to sit and enjoy the amazing courtyard as well as the scenic roof terrace with sunbeds and sofas, sunshine and shade. The housekeeper and late night concierge look after your every need, we had a home cooked meal (definitely do this during your stay) which was the best meal we had during our 6 night stay in Marrakesh.

Isle of ManThe initial alleyway approach to the riad was initially a shock and off putting but we soon got used to and embraced it's authenticity. The locals were very friendly but be prepared for the heartbreaking, malnourished stray cats.
The owners, Irene and Pascal and staff were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. A very unique, beautiful, authentic and special place to relax and enjoy. A real home from home, very cosy and a delicious breakfast. Don't miss out on relaxing on the very private, sunny roof terrace.There is a wonderful silk shop on the approach which is a must see. The owner Mohammed was so helpful without being pushy. The scarves, purses and soft furnishings were exquisite.

The owners, Pascal and Irene went out of their way to help us during our stay, they are charming hosts and Abdou and Zakhia were so kind and thoughtful. We would return in a heartbeat. The riad is only a few minutes walk from the souks, restaurants and the gardens (Majorelle and Jardin Secret) so the location was perfect. Taxi transfers to and from the riad were set up for us so it was a really smooth stay, the riad also has a charming roof terrace for enjoying the plentiful sunshine.

United KingdomIt was a great location for us, but if you want to be in the middle of the action this riad is not the one :) though it is only a short walk to the souks!
Riad Irene is walking distance to most of the sights in the Medina and the new city (15-30 mins), but it is in a quiet residential area so it is very peaceful. The roof terrace is a fantastic spot to relax, the facilities are very comfortable and the breakfast is good. The staff are super welcoming and helpful, Pascal provided so much information about getting around the Medina and good recommendations of places to eat. They also arranged a taxi for us and escorted us to the Riad when we arrived (much appreciated because we would definitely have been lost otherwise!). Finally, a special mention for the soaps and shampoo which smelled amazing.
