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 reviewRoom (including bathroom) was comfortable and clean. AC worked almost too well. Pool was wonderful on extremely hot days. Breakfast and especially dinner were fantastic! Very quiet (could be a positive or negative depending on the experience you want). Massage was good, as well. Walkable to many sightseeing locations, about 15 minutes to Jemaa el-Fnaa. Always felt safe for 3 women. Friendly staff. Lovely place to stay in an amazing city.
Not entirely the riads fault, but we booked a taxi shuttle through them and after arriving at the airport the driver did not have the hotel sign up. After calling, we got it sorted out, but when we arrived at the taxi dropoff for the riad, a porter (not from the riad) came and put our things in his cart to take to the riad. We thought he was from the riad, and the lady who came to meet us from the riad didn't tell us otherwise. After dropping our bags off (less than 5 min walk), he asked for $10. It would have been nice if the lady had warned us there would be charge or let us know the porter was not from the riad. It just felt like we were scammed immediately arriving in the country. Admittedly, our fault for falling for it too.
Dear J, Thanks a lot for your good mark and review... We really appreciate you enjoyed your stay! We are sorry for what happened at Dar el Bacha for your luggage!

Verified reviewOur stay at Riad Chergui was perfect for 4 nights in Marrakesh. The location was perfect for walking to the main square and some of the main attractions nearby too. The Riad was clean and well stocked with everything you need during your stay here. We loved the complementary breakfast with a variety of pastries, fresh juice, fruit and yogurt. A lovely way to start the day! We especially loved the pool which is large compared to other Riads and great for cooling down in the hot weather. The staff were also lovely, very friendly and helpful 😊
Nothing! everything was great.

Verified reviewGood value for the price, copious breakfast and very safe for female travelers.
The pool was dirty when we arrived - fully opaque- and it took over two days to clear up. We chose this riad for the pool so that was disappointing. We were told nothing was wrong with it, that it was because of the weather yet it was treated afterwards while two other pools we saw that day were perfectly clear.
Dear Pauline, Thank you for taking the time to give us a comment and a mark. We are really sorry for the pool, it was the first time in 19 years that we had a dirty pool! We hope that you will be back to visit us again with a clean pool. Have a nice week end All the best Emmanuelle & Radouane

The welcome was amazing and such a friendly and personal service. The room was stunning, the Riad itself situated in a lovely area and an oasis of calm! It was also really nice to have the option of the poolside bar for a mojito by the pool and snacks.

Verified reviewA calm amongst the choas! Within a few steps of Chergui is the busy and bustling streets of Marrakesh. Step through the front door into an oasis of calm and tranquility. Emmaualle and her team are friendly and accommodating. The Riad itself is beautiful, it is well maintained and we had a follow up message after booking to confirm we realised we booked a room with a low bathroom height. Which I thought was a nice touch. And was even offered transfers from the airport which we were grateful for as a staff member meets you and walks you straight to the Riad! After reading a review about the lack of English that is spoken - do not worry, Emmaualle and another staff member speak perfect English and you get by with the other staff with basic communication skills. The staff are super helpful and friendly and will come out from their well deserved break to help immediately. The breakfast is plentiful and delicious! I would stay here again and recommend anyone to stay here.

Verified reviewBeautiful Riad, calm and quiet. Excellent location. Really comfortable beds with crisp linen. Lovely staff always trying to help in anyway they could.
The welcome was not as good as when I visited before. The Riad was lacking a bit of atmosphere, but may be because Emmanuelle was not there? Breakfast a bit chaotic, the poor man was running in circles!

Verified reviewThe property was beautiful and stunning. Should have music to create a happy, buzzy atmosphere. The staff were polite and accommodating. Loved the roof top terrace.
The location. It is what it is, but not easy to find and not well sign posted. This prevented us from going out in the evening. It was difficult to find the way in the day time and evening time in the dark it would have been difficult. Two women alone would have been risky and we didn't feel comfortable.

When we arrived this was our first time and Emanuelle collected us from the taxi and brought us to the riad, she provided really good practical advice on marrakesh and the souks and was always really happy to answer all our questions and help us out. Overall a very positive experience.

Verified reviewTen out of ten for Riad Chergui- no exaggeration! Everything was wonderful from start to finish. This was our first trip to Marrakech, and we had no idea what we were doing or to expect. Emmanuelle and her staff were super attentive and kind, facilitating everything. Nothing was too much trouble. We arranged with Emmanuelle a pick up from the airport, so getting to the Riad was stress free. Breakfast was wonderful, the room was cute and pristine. The Riad is beautiful and a little oasis from the busy Medina. Nothing was too much trouble. All the staff were beyond kind. We especially enjoyed talking to Mohammed. Thank you for the wonderful experience and memories. We will definitely repeat our stay here.

Verified reviewWe travelled 2 weeks ago for a few days to celebrate my Mums 80th birthday - loved everything! The location was perfect - an oasis of calm after the heat and chaos of the medina. The owners and staff couldn't do enough for you - and I tested that as asked for lots of advice/made bookings. Food was delicious - I can't eat gluten & they were brilliant about providing alternatives. Room & communal areas were lovely, and original features of the Riad made it so special. Pool was a little cool to swim in but you could paddle to cool down. Would recommend the guided tours round the city (our guide Mustafa was brilliant) & the balloon ride over the desert! Thank you to Radouane & Emmanuelle, & their staff for all their hard work. It's a fabulous Riad full of Moroccan charm & the trip far exceeded our expectations - would definitely return!
