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 reviewThe DarZahia was perfectly placed for exploring Taroudant on foot and provided a quiet haven, especially on their top floor terrace, to relax in away from the normal business of a Moroccan City. Dar Zahia is beautifully done up, and the rooms, whilst fairly small, had everything you needed for your stay. Breakfast was delicious, and the staff were wonderful and helpful.

Verified reviewBeautiful riad with pleasant staff and wonderfully decorated rooms. The rooftop terrace and garden proved a nice break from the bustle from the city. Def recommend when you visit Taroudannt.
Be warned, the Dar is next to a Mosque. The morning prayer will wake you up, we didn't mind though.

Verified reviewDar Zahia is a lovely property inside Taroudant, which is a good city for a stopover. We had a lovely dinner in the evening inside Dar Zahia which we enjoyed!

Verified reviewThe Algerian owners of Dar Zaria have created a special ambiance for their riad. Both open and covered areas lie adjacent to a three floor open garden space with trees which reach right to the top. Add to this a huge diversity of flowering vines and varied vegetation. Spaces are delightfully filled with a collection of artesian. Our suite was commodious, tastefully decorated and well lit. The rolled bath was attractive. The staff was attentive; our meals were well prepared and tasty. We could not have asked for a better experience.
All was good.

Verified reviewOne of our most memorable stays in Morocco, we have thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The owners were uniquely kind and attentive, it almost felt as if we were staying with family. The diners we have had were really amazing and the overal styling and atmosphere of the rooms (and property in general) is fabulous. We highly recommend it!

Verified reviewIf you are looking for something stylish, the kind of house that features in architectural and design reviews, this is it! It is a renovated riad which respects the local tradition and has sophisticated modern touches. Few can pull this off in style. This is a previous holiday home for the owners who happened to be there when we visited. We ate dinner at the same table and felt very welcome, the food was delicious. The hosts and staff are most gracious. We also got one of our rooms upgraded which was appreciated. There is not much to do in Taroudant itself but you wouldn't go wrong by planning your itinerary around this stylish stopover.

Verified reviewThis Riad is beautifully decorated, full of charm and character. We were truly impressed by how tastefully designed it is. The room was spacious, well-decorated, and everything met our expectations. The hosts were delightful, offering us the best tea and engaging in warm, genuine conversations while also giving us useful tips about the area. Although we visited Taroudant as more of a transit stop rather than a destination, staying at this Riad made it feel special and worth the visit. There's private parking just a 3-minute walk from the Riad, which is clearly marked from the street, making it very convenient. While I haven't stayed at other accommodations in the area, I’ve visited many during my travels in Morocco, and I can confidently say that this Riad is among the best, competing with places that charge much higher prices.

Verified reviewBeautiful hotel, delicious creative evening meals, including salads. Staff friendly and helpful. Wine available
In two rooms the water pressure and temperature of the showers fluctuated between very hot and cold. The bed was very high, over a meter. I had to climb onto it! Staff not always present. The owner manages it from France. Breakfasts were delicious pancakes and jam but quite basic. Milk not always available. Fresh fresh fruit would be nice. Quite expensive.

Verified reviewDown a short cul de sac in the Medina , the entrance door led into a very beautiful , green courtyard garden area with a fountain … such a pleasant atmosphere . Our rooms were adjacent to each other on the garden floor . Upstairs where our breakfasts and dinners were served was also was filled with climbing trees , bugenvia, palms and cactus . Birds chirped at dusk and two doves were building their nest above the fountain. Our warm and friendly hostess Zenia ( spelling ?) greeted us and took such good care of us during our entire stay . The breakfast was varied and complete with toast , crepes , cheese , yogurt ,jams and honey and a large pot of brewed , hot coffee . We had two delicious dinners served in the candle lit courtyard , while classical piano music played softly nearby. Both my sister and brother-in-law are excellent cooks themselves , but they raved about the French -Moroccan cuisine that was prepared by our smiling and talented cook. The beautifully understated interiors and the fantastic old adobe architecture highlighted the ambiance of this magical Riad .
Not a thing , everything was perfect in our opinions .

Verified reviewThe hotel is absolutely beautiful. The staff were really friendly and the food absolutely delicious - without doubt the best we had in our 11 day trip to Morocco.
Little disappointed to find out the garden and larger pool were closed - had seen them on the hotel website so assumed we would be able to use them. Otherwise the hotel was amazing and does have a lovely plunge pool!
