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 reviewI had a fantastic stay at this charming riad in Marrakesh. The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, making me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. Its great location within the medina made exploring the vibrant city streets very convenient. The breakfast was excellent—delicious, fresh, and the perfect way to start each day. I also loved spending time on the nice terrace, offering a lovely spot to relax and soak in the atmosphere. Overall, this riad is definitely a wonderful home away from home in the heart of Marrakesh’s medina.
Everything was perfect!

Verified reviewThe riad is truly beautiful and full of authentic charm — the atmosphere is warm and relaxing, with wonderful scents and soft background music that makes you feel instantly at ease. The host family made our stay unforgettable: the father is always kind and available, and the mother is an amazing cook. Breakfasts were delicious, and we also enjoyed a fantastic lunch with traditional tajines. A special thank you to Sara, who supported us with every request. Her tips were truly valuable and made our stay — and the whole trip — much smoother. We truly felt at home and wonderfully cared — a stay full of kindness, warmth, and little attentions that made all the difference. A place that stays in your heart — and to which we’ll surely return.
Everything perfect

Verified reviewMarrakesh is a wonderful city, and the stay was even more unforgettable thanks to this wonderful riad. The owners were incredibly kind and thoughtful. The vibe and the decor of the riad were stunning, it looks even better in real life. I'm already dreaming about going back. I truly recommend this place

Verified reviewThis riad covers everything that we imagined to be for our trip: very clean , with attention to details and people with a smile on their face all the time when you address them with questions or whatever. They did everything to make us feel welcomed in their riad and country. It was very important to have their support 24/7. The arranged drive from and to the airport is a plus with a decent price than I have seen other riads are offering. Breakfast was delicious, the room was cleaned every day and the the whole riad help us experience the life of Marrakech.

Verified reviewThe family were so lovely and helpful, full of information and hospitality. The riad is 10mins away from the shops etc, it is an interesting walk seeing all the little shops selling everything. You can buy water and fresh fruit. The area is very safe - much safer than streets of London! Was able to walk everywhere, and the riad is set back and quiet so you can relax away from the bustle. There's a cool rooftop. This is a lovely place for a first trip to Marrakech.

Verified reviewHad a lovely stay at this riad, the staff were very welcoming and helpful. Airport transfer was arranged by staff and somebody from the riad came out to meet us, we were served tea and biscuits on arrival and given useful tips and a map to navigate around. The room had all we needed, shower was warm and consistent, bottled water was left in the room, we had a small fridge to keep it chilled, hairdryer in the bathroom and towels changed, beds made daily, breakfast was lovely near the plunge pool, the roof terrace was lovely to sit and enjoy the sun. The walk to the main square took about 15 mins. On our last day, we were able to store our bags in the riad so we didn't need to carry them around, staff also booked us a transfer to the airport and walked us out to the car.
There were a couple of cockroaches in our room one morning when we woke up, however staff very apologetic and quickly acted and put something down and there were no more.

Verified reviewThe bed was so comfy, the shower was good and had hot water, the staff which is Sara and her family were very attentive and friendly the roof top garden was just amazing, we would love to stay again if it was in a different area.
The pillows were very hard, the roof top garden would benefit from a little paddling pool and something to help with the flys. Getting to the property we was followed and asked for money right to the front door, it left us very stressed but the property can’t help this as it’s just how the area is unfortunately when they see you coming with suitcases.

Verified reviewIt is beautifully decorated and serene with lots of lovely seating areas and a huge roof terrace for relaxing. We were welcomed by the family owners and made to feel very much at home. They also gave us lots of helpful information about the area and were always available for questions. It was in a slightly quieter area just outside the busy tourist spots which we liked.
The one room next to the pool lacked a bit of privacy despite it being a beautiful room. And the hot water was sometimes not consistent in temperature during busy times.

Verified reviewAs a solo female traveler- I loved the tender care that Sara and her family showed me. I was well taken care of in every moment. Sara helped me arrange taxis, talked with tour managers, and explained to me directions. I loved how the family was also involved and I met her mother and father.

Verified reviewMalak was one of the best hosts we have ever had. She was exceptionally helpful and genuinely nice throughout our stay. We found that we could trust her opinion and advice, which is really valuable in an unfamiliar country. The riad itself is beautiful- as in the pictures. Pretty good value for money.
Nothing. Thank you!

Verified reviewThe Riad itself was spectacular. Very nice traditional Moroccan setting and decorations, indoor pool, many rooms in multiple floors, a HUGE terrace, very delicious breakfast with good variety, and the owner, Malak, was such a lovely, helpful and understanding person.
Two things. Firstly, our room was very small. It can only fit the big bed and a couple of chairs, no place to even put our luggage. The bathroom also was very very tiny with the toilet placed behind the door against a wall, very claustrophobic. Not sure if all the rooms are the same case. Secondly, and the biggest drawback, is the location. It is located in the old Medina 20 min away from the train station. Very local area with a long pathway and tiny streets that did not do justice for our luggage. Taxis refused to enter past a certain point and left us to walk 450m alone. One of our luggage wheels completely broke off in the way. The area does not feel safe at all, especially at night for two girls walking alone. Such a shame as the Riad itself is so beautiful, yet the area is very sketchy to be completely honest.

Verified reviewRiad Tamarrakecht was exactly as described and managed to exceed our expectations. The owners were so friendly and welcoming and took great care to ensure we had a lovely time. They gave us lots of really useful tips about being a tourist in Marrakesh and even printed out our boarding passes that are a requirement at the airport. The breakfasts were delicious and changed each day and the evening meal we had in the Riad was the best we had during our stay. Many thanks.

Verified reviewRiad Tamarakech it’s an amazing and lovely place where you can stay in the center of Medina , with big and quite rooms and very clean ( they are cleaning the room every day 😊) . Has a very nice pool in the middle of Riad and the main square is not far away from the Riad , 20-30 min walking . It’s a good choice if you want a quite Riad and very close to the main square and the attractions points . Also, Riad has a nice rooftop terrace with sunbeds and nice design. We had a variety food in the morning and delicious coffee ( try the coffee with a specific homemade spaices ) Riad Tamarakech it’s cozy please and our host , Malak her name, was more than kind. She gave us the all details about the city and was available for us in every moment. Definitely we recommend this Riad for a nice experience in Marrakech!

Verified reviewEverything! We had great communication before travelling, picked up from the airport, and taken to the Riad. We had a lovely welcome from Malak with tea and biscuits. Our room was comfortable and quiet. Malak talked us through how to navigate the area safely and gave us suggestions which were a great help. We had her number to contact her if we needed her. We wished we had eaten at the Riad before night 3 as Malaks mum's cooking was amazing- the best food of our trip. The Riad is inside the Medina but 15 minutes walk to the sights, which allowed us to see the authentic way of life in Marrakech Malak and family have made such a beautiful, calm, serene place to relax The sun terrace on the roof has lots of areas in sun or shade
Nothing at all! (But we would have liked to know about ordering food to be cooked for our evening meal - it really was delicious and we would probably have eaten there every night)
