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 reviewThe location is fantastic, inside the Medina and near to the main square, which has great entertainment at night. The staff were very helpful and carried our suitcase upstairs. The breakfast is very tasty and is inside in the garden with lovely plants and water running...
The main bedroom could have been a little bigger, but it was beautifully decorated. A kettle would be very useful...

Verified reviewWe had such a lovely stay at Riad Zi. Redouane and Hamza made the riad feel even more like home with their warm hospitality and genuine kindness. Hamza is such a gentle and helpful person, and both of them were always ready to arrange anything we needed. They’re also the kind of people you can chat with for hours. They bring so much warmth and laughter to the riad. Their care and friendliness made our experience unforgettable. Highly recommend!

Verified reviewThe closeness to the square and airport
I was locked in my room for the outside. The communication for the excursions were not clearly coordinated and I wasn’t able to take full advantage of the experience. The paperwork for customs was not complete nor accurate and I was not able to go customs and make a claim.

Verified reviewIt was so calm and quiet in the lovely Riad. Just tucked down an alley near the busy markets, it was a beautiful escape from the heat. We dipped in the pool every afternoon. It was a small riad also, which meant it felt really private. Hamza was such a lovely host, he was very helpful. We would stay here again 100%.

Verified reviewAbsolutely beautiful stay from start to finish. Staff were extremely helpful and showed us clearly many of the great things to do around Marrakech. The room was spacious and very clean. The bathroom was well equipped and shower had great pressure. I would only consider staying here when I return to Marrakesh.

Verified reviewI had the pleasure of staying in this riad for the past 7 days, and it was truly a magical experience. The riad itself is stunning, authentic, stylish, and filled with that enchanting atmosphere that gives you the true feeling of Marrakech. Everything was just right: from the beautiful decor to the peaceful ambiance. The location is perfect, just a few minutes’ walk from the lively Jemaa el-Fna square, and equally close to a taxi stand. Ideal for easily exploring the city while having a calm, relaxing place to return to. I’ve stayed in many riads before, but this one truly stands out above the rest. It’s the first riad I know I’ll return to without hesitation, it has undoubtedly become my absolute favorite. What makes this place truly special is the staff. Their genuine hospitality, enthusiasm, and dedication turn this riad into something far more than just a beautiful place to stay. Redouane is a true pillar of the team. He’s helpful, attentive, and always available with a smile. His willingness to assist, answer questions, and offer support made my stay smooth and genuinely enjoyable. Hamza radiates a natural kindness that instantly puts you at ease. His calm, gentle personality and sincere approach make him an essential part of the riad's warm atmosphere. The rest of the team also deserves high praise, they all did a fantastic job. Their energy, care, and positive spirit were truly uplifting, and their contagious cheerfulness brought a smile to my face every single day. Together, they are the secret ingredient that makes this riad so exceptional. Thanks to them, I didn’t just feel welcome, I felt genuinely cared for. I already look forward to coming back. This riad is without a doubt a must-stay for anyone who wants to experience Marrakech at its very best.
The only downside was that my stay wasn’t longer. I would have loved to spend more time enjoying this wonderful riad and the amazing hospitality.

Verified reviewI’ve stayed in several riads in Marrakech, but Riad Zi truly stands out as the best of them all. The atmosphere was peaceful and beautifully designed, and the hospitality exceeded all expectations. The entire team was kind and welcoming, but a special thanks goes to Redwan — he was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and memorable. I will definitely be returning here on my next trip to Marrakech!

Music and noise from rooftop bar next to riad but there is nothing to do about it. It can also be a good thing that you have nice rooftop close by 😉

Verified reviewRiad Zi was an absoutely fantastic place to stay in Marrakech. Unfortunately our trip was impacted by getting food poisoning prior to arriving here and we spent the majority of the time in the Riad. Redouane was a FANTASTIC host - going out of his way to get us food/water, helping us find pharmacies and checking in on us even once we were back in the UK. It was a really clean and beautiful Riad, tucked away and with friendly staff who greet you on arrival and give you the tips and tricks of how to best enjoy your stay in Marrakech.
Nothing - just wish we had been well enough to enjoy it further!

Verified reviewStaff was great. Helpful. Rooms large, clean and comfortable. Location is really good. Overall just a great little Riad.
There is a bit of a smell throughout the circulation and arrival to the Riad... We had some complications with staff on our day of leaving, which added some chaos to our checkout and getting to our flight on time.

I'd suggest adding some blind curtains to the bedroom windows!
