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.).

Everything you need is available in the room, breakfast is tasty and plentiful.

The bed was incredibly comfortable (I slept like a baby!), and the staff went above and beyond helping us plan excursions. The location was great too—quiet, but close enough to the action.

Verified reviewThis beautiful riad is the heart of the medina and a great base for exploring. As soon as you enter you are surrounded by beautiful Moroccan architecture, paintings and many local objects which really sets it apart. The room was wonderful, beautifully decorated with such an authentic feel, with so much to look at. The lighting, sofas, bedroom and stunning view into the courtyard was all perfect. There wasn't anything else we needed, everything was easily on hand from air conditioning to an iron and ironing board. You had all the toiletries needed in the bathroom together with bathrobes which came in handy to use after a quick dip in the downstairs pool. Breakfast was superb with a large selection of cakes, pastries, jams and honey, with a lovely Moroccan egg tagine and plenty of tea and coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice. They also have a fabulous roof terrace that has a lot of seating areas and sun loungers, all surrounded by beautiful flowers and plants. It also has a fan/water spray whilst sitting up there to help you keep cool on very hot days. The communication with the propery was faultless, all enquriries were quickly answered and they couldn't do enough for us. Wonderful people, wonderful property and a wonderful stay.
There was nothing we didn't like at all.
Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! We’re absolutely delighted that you enjoyed every moment of your stay with us—from the authentic decor and comfortable room to the rooftop terrace and delicious breakfasts.

It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d be thrilled to welcome you back anytime for another wonderful stay.

Verified reviewThe personal and high level of service was the most impressive. Our needs were anticipated and assistance to get tickets and transfers were seamless thanks to Fouad and his team, selected by Habiba. We felt as if we were amongst family and friends, always greeted with smiles. The breakfast on the terrace was amazing, delicious, fresh and generous. The room was beautiful with thoughtful amenities. The central location was ideal to get to any points of interest and despite being within the Medina, it was quiet. Home cooked traditional dinner was much enjoyed as was the in- house hammam.

We were a family of 5 and stayed in 2 rooms. Both rooms were beautiful and very clean. The breakfast was also amazing. The location is absolutely perfect as well. Everything was walking distance and it is also close to the main road in case one needs a taxi. I would highly recommend Riad Anabel.

Verified reviewSuper clean - maids did an excellent job of making sure the room was spotless everyday. When arriving the room had rose petals and the towels were in different shapes which was a lovely touch. Room was large with plenty of space. Decor was phenomenal both in the room and on the property. Made to feel very welcome with free Moroccan tea and biscuits. Breakfast could be served both on the balcony or downstairs - a great selection of food - the egg tagine was one of my favourite dishes I tasted the whole trip! Perfect location just off the Main Street. The staff went above and beyond always answering all questions promptly. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Thank you!

Verified reviewThe Riad is beautiful and lies not more than 10 minutes away from Jeema El-Fnaa. At night time the area is bustling with life but once you step inside the Riad, it's peaceful and quiet. Madama Habiba, was very nice and helpful. The breakfast and dinner were exceptional.
When we arrived by the taxi as close as possible to the Riad, we were met by a guy from the Riad - so far great. He then proceeded to load our luggage into a trolley driven by another person. After wheeling our luggage to the Riad we were 'asked' for 'tips'. It felt like we were being ripped off and were afraid that it set the tone for the rest of trip (not the case). We would have appreciated if they had told us from before, we would have still paid, because we were tired after flying in for over 10 hours. But be prepared, bartering and haggling are engrained in their culture - as long as it's civil and polite, you will be fine. Silver lining: As soon as we set foot in the room, all was forgiven.
Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed review of your stay with us. We're delighted that you appreciated our Riad's beautiful setting, peaceful atmosphere, and convenient location just minutes from Jemaa El-Fnaa. It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed Madame Habiba's hospitality and that you found our breakfast and dinner offerings exceptional. We sincerely apologize for the uncomfortable situation regarding tips for the luggage assistance. You've provided valuable feedback, and we'll ensure better communication about these services in the future. We want all aspects of our guests' experience to be transparent and pleasant from arrival to departure. I would like to clarify an important point regarding your arrival experience. The individual with cartswho transported your luggage do not work for our Riad or any other riads in the medina. They are independent workers who offer their services to visitors. While we can arrange to meet guests at designated points, the cart service is separate and independently operated within the medina, where vehicles cannot access the narrow streets. Thank you for your understanding and for recognizing that this single incident didn't impact your overall stay. We're pleased that once you settled into your room, you were able to fully enjoy the peaceful haven our Riad provides. We hope to welcome you back again for another memorable stay. Warm regards,
