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.).

AustraliaSome of the beds were uncomfortable and it would make a huge difference to upgrade sheets and towels. I would definitely book again despite this due to amazing staff and location.
Our hosts Said and Said were so helpful and kind. The Riad is beautiful and has the best view from the shady terrace. Location is perfect.

SerbiaThis riad is the best one we were staying during our Morocco trip, and we changed 5/6 of them. The owners of the Riad are so nice and they were here for anything we need. Rooms are very big and comfortable with everything we can possibly need during our stay. Breakfast is amazing, and you can have it on a terrace with a view of whole medina. If we are coming to Fes again we would definitely choose the same accomodation.

United KingdomWe spent 4 days in this fantastic Riad in the Medina of Fes. The hosts, both named Said, are two special people—kind and welcoming. They met all our needs and organized every tour for us, both in and outside of Fes, during our stay. The location is excellent, easily reachable from one of the main gates at Rcif Square, about a 3-minute walk. The Riad is clean and equipped with everything you need for your vacation, featuring the typical architecture of a Moroccan Riad. The breakfast is generous and very good, carefully served—even on the terrace when the weather is nice—with a stunning view over the entire Medina.

The property was beautiful and the location was fantastic - right in the Medina! The best part, though, was definitely Saïd. He was such an excellent host and went above and beyond for us. He helped us book & plan our travels and activities, made us delicious breakfasts (very early when we had to leave early), and was always there for us if we needed anything at all. 10/10 service, highly recommend this Riad for you Fes trip!

GermanyI can highly recommend this riad! You will be welcomed by the warmest and friendliest staff ever and there is just a great atmosphere. We got help with everything, we didn‘t have to walk to restaurants or the bus stop by ourselves but got guided and when we got lost in the medina we got immediately help on whats app. The terrace has a breathtaking view and the breakfast is really good. When we left for our Sahara trip early they even packed a breakfast bag for us. I would definitely stay there again, so if you read this, this is your sign to book Riad El Bacha, you won‘t regret it :)

ItalyHaving breakfast with the jacket is not the best experience, maybe some heating could have helped.
Great position in the center of the Medina, few meters from Place Rcif where taxis can drop you off. The riad is very simple and spartan, yet for the price of a cheap european hostel you get a big room with private bathroom plus a good breakfast. There is a nice terrace at the top. Overall our experience at this riad was pleasant even though there were some small improvable things, e.g. the floor is not perfectly horizontal and so are the beds, the rooms are not remade every day... All in all I would recommend this riad to young people, group of friends and people who are adaptable and on a budget.

New ZealandOur stay at Riad el Bacha was more than we could have hoped for. Saïd was so kind and helpful, booking tours for us, walking us to restaurants when we wanted recommendations, and making our stay easy and comfortable. He helped accommodate however we wanted to experience Fes. We enjoyed having breakfast on the ropftop terrace and felt looked after the whole time, especially after feeling a bit fragile post travel. We enjoyed the hospitality so much we stayed for two extra nights!

United KingdomLeaving the place!
Everything about this place oozes old charme, and perfectly encapsulates the ancient feel of this age old city. It's tucked away in a somewhat unprepossessing corner on the edge of the labyrinthine Medina (although it'svery easy to find), but once you're inside you're really in for a treat: huge, airy rooms retaining the fine features of aristocratic houses. Yes, the building is old and could probably do with some small renovations in places; but there's something of a fading grandeur enveloping the space, and if you're into that atmosphere, full of history and cultural authenticity, the place will just enchant you. This said, aside from any architectural or logistical musings, what makes the place absolutely outstanding is the people running it. I honestly would have not had half as good a time had it not been for the incredible, heart-warming and truly unsurpassed hospitality and kindness of the host Sayd. He made me feel like an old friend, and we spent long hours talking about anything from politics to art. He is one of the most welcoming, genuine and intellectually curious people I've had the luck to come across in my travels - and surely the very reason why I travel: the encounter with humanity, beauty and cultural diversity. To top it all off, the wonderful maid cooked an incredible meal on our last night, which we shared with other guests. There was plenty of couscous, various delicious meze starters and of course tea. It was an unusually wet evening with torrential rain, and being able to stay in and just enjoy the conviviality of other like-minded folks was the best I could have hoped for. Thank you Says and staff - you made my time in Fez one of my most cherished memories in my Moroccan visits, and really look forward to seeing you soon again!
