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 Riad is very nice inside with a terrace on the top if you'd like to relax. Our room had the air conditioning which was great for the heat in Marrakech! Abdul is very kind and always available to assist you - he also organised the villa for us for a day which was beautiful! The staff is very kind and thank you to the lady who made us coffee at 6am in the morning as we had to leave early! Merci beaucoup !

Verified reviewI loved the location, very central of the bazaars and found it easy to go out to places. The place felt very much at home and was really lovely. Day and night there was a specific staff, Abdul, he was very excellent and helped my family and I to be accommodated properly, he helped us with any inquiries quickly, took extra time to go above and beyond for me. I am really grateful I experienced Abdul’s hospitality, he made our trip to Marrakesh feel more at home.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re happy you enjoyed the location and felt at home with us. Abdul will be very touched by your message. We hope to see you again soon.

Verified reviewThe staff were very friendly, the Riad was very clean, it was in the very centre so excellent location, every where you turned was a photo moment and the roof top was beautiful.
Our suit needed some TLC and it was a bit odd you could see in your our room from the rooftop.
Thank you for your kind words. We're happy you enjoyed the friendly staff, cleanliness, central location, and the beautiful rooftop. We appreciate your feedback about the suite and the rooftop visibility, and we’ll definitely look into ways to improve privacy and comfort. We hope to welcome you again soon!

Only as a negative thing, lack of light in the room

Verified reviewWe had a wonderful stay at Riad Zarka. Firstly, the staff are amazing - Dua, Fadua(hope i got her name right) and Mouad. Their hospitality was expecting, all the warmth and love especially towards my kids, loved it. The breakfast is phenomenon, the fact that it's all prepared within the Riad and there is a new layout everyday was the highlight. It helps to get a flavour of all the different types of breakfasts you could eat in Marrakech. Riad is very clean, our room was very spacious, cot was placed in advance and the bed were very comfortable. The location is quite central to all the attractions while it's hidden away from the main souk so it's not noisy at all but very convenient.
The cons i am listing is more of good to haves and cannot shadow the pros because if i were going back, I would definitely go back here. Our room had non working bulbs and was a bit run down but did not affect the stay, but a little refurbishment would help. There are no high chairs so it can be a problem especially for under 2s. The pool is not temp controlled, so though we planned to get in it was too cold for my daughter so had to skip it. They could add some fruits for breakfast, maybe its not traditional Moroccan breakfast but Morocco produces so many lovely fruits so having them would be nice
Thank you so much for your beautiful and detailed review. We're thrilled that you and your family felt warmly welcomed and cared for, especially by Doua, Fadoua, and Mouad, they’ll be so happy to hear your kind words. It’s wonderful to know the daily changing breakfast and peaceful central location added to your experience. We also really appreciate your thoughtful suggestions. Your points about lighting, high chairs, the pool temperature, and fruit at breakfast are all valuable and will help us continue to improve. We'd be honored to welcome you back on your next visit to Marrakech!

Verified reviewWhat a little gem of a Riad! An oasis of calm right inside the chaos of the bustling medina. We spent 6 nights with a group of friends, including 3 children and were made to feel like family from day one. Some found the beds a little hard but soon got used to them, beautiful decor in every room, comfortable communal areas, including the rooftop for that all important vitamin D and there was always hot water. The breakfast was carby standard but if you asked, eggs would be served, we just bought some tomatoes and feta in addition. An extra special shout out for Simmo, Fadwa and Ouwa, just gorgeous, kind and helpful people. Always courteous and very professional, nothing was too much trouble, even printing boarding cards for our return home. Highly recommended, Marrakesh is fabulous 🤩

Verified reviewVery beautiful riad in the middle of the medina (which you may or may not like). It's pretty silent. The two ladies taking care of the place are very friendly. The room and bathroom were pristine, bed very comfortable.
The meals proposed there are rather expensive (2 to 2.5 times the price you'd get in the area). I was very tired so accepted to get their menu ("marocan salad", standard small tajine, and some sort of stodgy desert), plus a bottle of water respectively listed at 18€ and 2.5€. The tajine was pretty good. But I ended up paying 25 euros "including taxes" whatever that may mean, I didn't get an answer on that. IOW avoid eating there. I stayed only one night and had to leave at 7am tops, so I knew I wouldn't get a chance to have breakfast there. I was promised a coffee though, but the place was still dead silent when I left, so no coffee either. Too bad. Apart from that, I'm thankful it's december and very few other guests because one can hear whatever noises everyone else might be doing. But hey it's a riad with thin doors and floors, no real surprise there, not their fault :)
