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.).

TurkeyThe doors don’t lock. I have never seen this before so I was a little uncomfortable but nothing really happened. So it seems ok here in Morocco
Staff are very kind, welcoming and helpful. Clean rooms, quiet Riad with a great rooftop

SlovakiaThe terrace room wasn't spacious and it was a bit challenging to move around there but you probably will spend most of your time outside exploring the mesmerizing Marrakech. Plus, riads are old traditional buildings so it's not that the rooms can be expanded easily.
Everyone can see the beauty of this place through the pictures so my words about that would be redundant. But what can't be seen, until you get your own experience, is the amazing staff who makes this riad different from the others. The communication before my arrival was absolutely great, very smooth and very fast. During my stay, I had the chance to meet Hamza and Adil who were absolutely phenomenal! You feel with them like you met your friends from many years ago. And then, I tried the dinner made by Karima, what an unforgettable culinary experience! If you're looking for a place where you don't want to feel just like another guest, and if you appreciate deeper human connection, this is the place to stay.

Fantastic location. Near the heart of the old city. The staff were beyond wonderful. Hassan and Adil made sure that we were taken care of all the way. Amazing dinner. They had a surprise menu for un on the first night. Really good with amazing and balanced flavors. We were so happy.

PortugalI only booked for one night. I would probably extend that on a next visit.
The riad is really nice and everyone is pretty welcoming from our arrival until our departure. Since we were the only hosts, we got the terrace room, that allowed us to chill before our road trip to Merzouga. Riad Dar Zaman certainly raised the bar for our next accomodations. Breakfast had a lot of fresh and homemade things that I will for sure look for in the souks or try to find recipes for. Make sure to use the local app suggested by the host to get around and understand the closing times for the medina and you'll be fine walking around.

United KingdomNothing. The water went off in the whole area, but this wasn’t a Riad dad zaman issue, it was all of the area, but the staff did everything they could to get it back on quickly.
The staff with so helpful! Adil gave us such a warm welcome, and Hassane was so helpful with recommendations and directions - they really made our stay so enjoyable. The riad was very sweet and had a great roof terrace. We were only there for one night before we were heading on a trek, but I would have happily stayed for longer

IrelandAbsolutely loved our 3-night stay at Riad Dar Zaman in Marrakesh! From the moment we walked in, it felt like a little hidden oasis— beautifully decorated with that perfect blend of Moroccan charm and cozy comfort. The vibe is so peaceful, warm, and welcoming-truly like coming home after a long day exploring the medina. The staff? Simply the sweetest people ever. So helpful, kind, and always ready with a smile or some great local tips. We felt safe, cared for, and genuinely looked after the entire time. If you're heading to Marrakesh and want a place with soul, style, and the best hospitality -100% recommend Riad Dar Zaman. We'll be dreaming of coming back!

United KingdomIt was lovely. Very relaxing. We were away for my birthday. All the staff are very friendly. We were welcomed with drinks and advised of places to visit, eat etc which was really nice and gave us ideas of where to go. The hotel is beautifully decorated and full of Moroccan charm, rooms are comfy, breakfasts are delicious. We sat next to the open fire. There is a lovely roof top garden for lounging though we didn’t really use it as it is a little chilly in January. The location is great, tucked away but walkable to everywhere. Highly recommend.

Everything was amazing! The welcome, the property, the room, the perfect location and the food! I cannot recommend this Riad highly enough. In particular the amazing staff who were as welcoming as they were efficient and friendly; and the food, if you can have dinner here at least once! The location right outside the Medina is fantastic too. If you are coming to Marrakech and want to stay in an authentic and amazing Riad, you cannot do better than Dar Zaman

Lovely personal service, nothing was too much. We even had one breakfast on the roof terrace and watched the sunrise. They gave us lots of helpful tips to navigate the city and souks. Airport transfer arranged by the riad made it really easy. We had dinner here on our first night and it was one of the best meals we had on our whole trip. A perfect Riad to stay.

Can’t say enough about Karima’s cooking and Hamza’s and Adil’s pampering and wealth of information. They made our first visit to Marrakech a much better experience. Also, there was a great group of guests at the Riad. We all became friends and ventured out together. Overall a great experience.

United KingdomThere was nothing that we didn’t like.
We loved our stay at Riad Dar Zaman. The host/owner, Peter, was lovely and a great source of local knowledge. The staff, Hassan, Hamza and Adil, were fantastic. The property is in the perfect location, close to the old town markets but still in a quiet and secluded area. Was a little tricky to find on the first day. We would highly recommend using the airport transfer offered by the property. It’s slightly more expensive than a taxi but is well worth it to be brought directly to the riad. Accommodation was cozy, comfortable and beautifully decorated. Food was delicious, especially breakfast. We stayed in the room on the terrace. It was quiet and very private. The shower was a generous size and, although the room was compact, it was well laid out and had everything we needed. I would recommend this property to anyone travelling to Marrakech.
