Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

Saudi ArabiaWe read the reviews about this Hotel on Google and didnt have great expectations, however we found it to be wonderful stay. Room was very comfortable. The food served at dinner and breakfast was fresh and cooked to a very high standard. The Hotel itself was bright and had lots of light unlike many of its competitors, in many Arabic hotels there is minimal light in a bid to keep the rooms cool.The staff could not have been nicer and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. There is a beautiful rooftop terrace with a bar, buzzer on the bar was responded to very quickly. Small but beautiful pool which was so refreshing after walking around the sooks all day. I would encourage you to stay at this Hotel as I truly don't think you will not be dissapointed.

United KingdomBathroom was a little dated, but clean and livable. I believe the rooms were a little bit dark but they accommodated my request and gave me Russeaux the lighter room so no complaints on that front. Phenomenal art deco hotel with attention to detail.
I thought all the staff went the extra mile with no expectation in return, especially Samirah, Jalila, Chakib, Ismail and the chefs. We were vegetarian and they accommodated our every request. The breakfasts were a highlight every morning as they would have something different everyday. So we never got bored of breakfast and it kept us going for the whole day that we saved so much money on lunches. Ibrahim was excellent with the atlas mountain tour that the hotel arranged. The staff felt like my extended family and they made us feel totally relaxed and at home. The location is perfect being in the Medina but not in the hustle bustle noisy part. Also accessible by Taxis. There was a background relaxing piano music. I also loved the background birds tweeting away in the morning – felt like I was sleeping outdoors but indoors. Never have I experienced that, felt at one with nature.

United KingdomCame away with my dad for 4 days and stayed in Villa makassar and had the most splendid time. Room was lovely and clean, so were other parts of the hotel. Good walking distance from the medina (15 mins). Rooftop sunbathing was great apart from wish there was a pool on the roof instead of hot tub. Breakfasts were very indulgent. Staff overall were so lovely & caring! Would highly reccomend if you’re coming away for a few days :)

United KingdomOur room was a bit dark, but that was mainly due to the design of the room which was beautiful. I didn't like the patio heater in the restaurant...I am not sure if that is safe, it didn't smell good and it was too hot! We mainly ate on the roof for breakfast so not a major issue.
Villa Makassar is an oasis of peace and calm in a fantastic location just inside the Kasbah, in a quietly bustling area and walking distance to many sights. The attention to detail in art deco design is wonderful and the whole place feels luxurious and is so photogenic. The mornings are filled with birdsong and the delicious breakfast on the roof terrace was a delightful start to the day. Best of all, without exception, the staff are kind, welcoming and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. We were sad to leave and would love to return.
