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.).

United KingdomIf I were to suggest one area of improvement, it would be the signage and visibility of the property. Riyad Elite can be a little difficult to find at first, especially for first-time visitors navigating the Medina. Clearer signs or directions at key points nearby would make it easier for guests to locate the Riad more quickly and comfortably. That said, once you arrive, the warm welcome and excellent service more than make up for it.
I had a truly enjoyable stay at Riad Elite in Marrakesh. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was exceptional. A special thanks to Yousef and Amin, who went above and beyond to ensure our comfort throughout the entire stay. Their attentiveness and warm service made a lasting impression. The lady in charge of housekeeping also deserves appreciation for keeping our room spotless and preparing a delicious breakfast each morning, it was a wonderful way to start the day. The location of the Riad is perfect, just a short walk from the city center and the main attractions, yet tucked away enough to enjoy peace and quiet when needed. The rooms were immaculately clean, each equipped with air conditioning, which made our stay very comfortable, especially during the warmer hours of the day. The overall ambiance of the property is calm, elegant, and authentically Moroccan, offering a relaxing escape from the busy streets of the Medina. I would highly recommend Riad Elite to anyone looking for excellent service, great location, and true Moroccan hospitality.

United KingdomThe breakfast was lovely! Beautiful shared surroundings but mainly had it all to myself as people were out it seemed. 20min walk into the main square but small shops very close by. The guy was lovely. He let me stay with my cases the whole of the next day even though I was checked out at 11am. He was always around too if I needed to ask for help.
