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.).

PolandA beautiful traditionally decorated place with a friendly host . We loved our room. Breakfast was tasty and location unbeatable- in a quiet lane just several minute walk from medina.

United StatesGreat location. Fabulous air conditioning. Amazing staff. I had a flight at 6:00 am and overslept. Staff woke me up and made sure that I did not miss my plane. Of all of the places that I have stayed in Fes for early flights-this was the first place to give me “breakfast to go”. Great touch. The location is perfect - just outside the Medina - close to Batha square. Seamless in-and-out. Thank you.

SloveniaFurniture in our room is a bit on the older side and you could hear quite a lot of noise from the hallway. But we slept well regardless, so nothing critical.
Highlights of this place were the location (hard to be better for central Fez), very friendly staff, and the breakfast. One of the staff members came to the nearest roundabout to meet us to show us the parking garage, since we arrived with our own car (garage was 30dh per day, which is great). He then took us to the dar and served us the tea. Very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also great and plenty.

United KingdomWe initially had trouble finding the hotel, but the staff member on shift went out of his way to come and guide us to our room. Once we arrived, he welcomed us with delicious tea and biscuits, which was such a thoughtful touch. Since it was my girlfriend’s birthday, he went above and beyond by decorating the room beautifully with balloons, sweets, and flower petals. It was an unforgettable experience, and we truly appreciated the hospitality. I highly recommend this place!

SerbiaThe breakfast was a bit light, when we asked for more, they gave us only two extra slices of bread , and there was five of us.
This place has authentic Morrocan vibe which we really like. The rooms were clean, spacious, had heating, and hotel is near center. Overall good value for money.

NetherlandsWe observed a bit of extra humidity in the bathroom of our room(ground floor) that might be a problem for warmer time period but not so important from our point of view.
We had a very pleasant stay in Dar Layali Fez. The location was in a quite place, very close to Medina. The stuff was very friendly(they offered us tea while arriving) and the facilities were excellent and very clean. Breakfast was fulfilling and rich. We received good recommendations for lunch and cite seeing. Very good quality for the price. In total, we highly recommend it.

IrelandAbsolutely beautiful Riad in an unbeatable location, everything on your doorstep and yet so peaceful in the Riad, its decor is exquisite and the staff are beyond exceptional and genuinely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was lovely too and the Riad is spotless clean and very comfortable and it’s very accessible by car or taxi for anyone with mobility issues and no stairs to climb as they have rooms on the ground floor, I would highly recommend this Riad to anyone who wants to be beside the Medina and blue gate shops and restaurants but like a peaceful night sleep.
