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.).

Probably the most beautiful and luxurious hotel experience we have ever had! Rachid and the staff made us very welcome. The Riad is a calm, beautiful oasis in the middle of the busy medina. Breakfast was wonderful and we really appreciated the pool to cool off in the heat of the day. I could not recommend Riad du Ciel more highly.

United KingdomThe twin room I was in could use a few small improvements for the comfort of future guests: fix the electrical outlets so they all work, add a mount for the shower head so you don’t have to hold it, and add lights to the closet so you can see the contents easier.
Super clean, quiet and peaceful with plenty of beautiful spaces to lounge and relax. The rooftop and pool were my favourite. The staff were kind and welcoming.

United StatesThe staff was incredible and they exceeded any expectations I had. The decor of the hotel and the room was as traditional as it gets. Fresh, massive breakfasts provided every morning. Right in the heart of the Medina. Anything you could want to see in Marrakech is just a short walk away.

United KingdomIt was perfect to stay in the Medina. Just for other travelers, the Medina is very busy and can be loud. Expect to hear some outside noise but it is a lovely oasis in all the noise.
It was lovely and clean, beautiful architecture, room amazingly decorated, great to have roof terrace as an option. The staff were amazing, so helpful and very attentative. Thank you!

United KingdomThis riad was great, inside it was very peaceful and quiet. The room was clean and very comfortable. The breakfast every day was plentiful and delicious with different options each of the 3 mornings. The riad is not far from Jemaa el-Fnaa only a 15min walk (once you have worked out all the turns to make in the souks) Rashid was really helpful and even arranged an early breakfast for the day went into the Atlas Mountains. Communication up front with Simo was great to organise a car from the airport. Overall a great place to stay, highly recommend!

HungaryNothing. Everything was perfect.
Beautiful Riad with exceptionally kind staff. Our first room was a normal size room, and we were offered a larger room from the 2nd night - a very generous upgrade for free. Our second room was enormously huge with a double bed (made for giants :) ) Breakfast is lavish, you can survive almost the whole day with having only the breakfast. The building, the rooms and the inner courtyard are beautiful.

Simon was very welcoming and helpful even before our arrival. He contacted me asking if we needed help with anything before arrival and sent a car for us to the airport upon request. When we arrived, he served us tea, and showed us a map of the medina, explaining every little detail and helping with our itineary while in marrakech. I needed his help quite a few times, and he was always avaliable to call. He recommender us restaurants (NOT big touristy ones, but small street-food and cheap but delicious places), and each time we took a taxi somewhere he told us what the normal price would be so we could bargain the prices to a regular level. The rest of the staff spoke impeccable english as well, were very helpful and kind. Excellent breakfast! It was different every day. The locatikn of the riad is on a calmer street, but is a minute walk from the souks. Our room was comfortable and pretty, and was not loud at all. This is probably the best place I’ve ever stayed at, and if you have the chance to stay here yourself, do not miss it!

United KingdomThe only very minor issue was the water pressure in the shower wasn’t great, but it wasn’t enough to cause a major problem! Otherwise, we had no complaints. Use google maps and not Apple Maps as apple have the riad in totally the wrong place!
The peace and tranquility the minute you step into the riad. The breakfast was plentiful and tasty and Simo couldn’t have been more helpful!

Riad du Ciel was a very special place. It was peaceful, beautiful and charming with such care and attention given to everything. The staff were so kind and unassuming and had an amazing ability to be available whenever you needed them yet remain discrete and respectful of your privacy. The breakfast was delicious. Great location too right next door to the perfume museum and very close to the souks. I would wholeheartedly recommend Riad Du Ciel and will definitely stay here again if I am lucky enough to return to Marrakech. Thank you!

United KingdomThis is a personal opinion but it would be great if they had cheaper airport transport (I think theirs was 20 euros and we ended up using booking.com service for 10 euros) or maybe instructions for people not using their transport as they don't have external signs indicating where the riad is. I know Simo sent us his number so the driver could call him but we didn't end up doing that as we had a language barrier with the driver.
We stayed at 5 riads around Morrocco and we loved Riad Du Ciel the best. We liked the intimate feel of the Riad, how clean it was and how personal the service felt. Simo was on hand to help with everything!
