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.).

United StatesThere wasn’t anything we didn’t like but some things of note…there is not an elevator and the stairs are steep and narrow and the bathroom in our room was beautiful but you have to go down 5 tall stairs to access it.
The riad is beautiful and the staff is exceptionally helpful and friendly. Breakfast every day was way more than we could eat and had a huge variety. We had dinner one night and the food was delicious and we had excellent service. Our room was huge and had a big bathroom. The location to the Souk was perfect, everything we did seemed to be no more than a 15 min walk.

United KingdomThe Maison Bleue is an authentic house from the early 1900s. It maintains that style of decor which we found rather heavy and fusty. Little natural light. No bar but a drinks trolley service.
Amazing old riad, very helpful staff. We were confused between this hotel and the other Riad Maison Bleue which is in a totally different class on the other side of town. We thought we'd booked the other riad and moved to it paying a supplement for two nights.

United StatesWe stayed here two nights and had dinner. I never write bad reviews. As my grandma says if you don’t have anything nice to say then keep it to yourself. But Fes is so wonderful and folks come a long way to get here so they should have the opportunity to have the best experience. And this place is uniquely bad. The staff is totally checked out. No one wants to be bothered. Fantastically overpaid for a dinner. When asked about the wine waiter said it’s all Moroccan, it’s all good. When asked if he knew anything more or which one he could recommend, he flatly said no. When asked if anyone knows more because I was interested in Moroccan wine he laughed and said he knows the most. Food arrived. It’s mountains of something. A pile of couscous with a tiny bit of veal. A heap of grey/green peas and grey lamb tagine. It’s a single flavor and resembles slop. It’s $50/ person. There is no chef, no love, obviously but there are some cooks back there making sure to feed us, but nothing else. They are robbing you of the opportunity for a decent or maybe even great meal somewhere else. The room is full of tour groups with a guide. The guides get kickbacks. Im sure it looks great on the brochure, but the food is terrible and the service is worse. Mystery wine was $40. Wine was fine. Fes is really not that daunting, trust me you don’t need a guide. Your gps works. Music was great. So that’s was a bonus. When leaving we asked for a taxi. Reception told us to go outside and flag one. A bit exhausted from all the Medina haggling and begging I asked him if he could do it. He said he will just fight with them. Didn’t want to do it. I asked again he begrudgingly found a taxi but was very annoyed. Family got a weeks worth of laundry done. It was $125. Bottom line this place is terrible and you should not stay or eat here. There are much better options in fes which has delightful architecture and wonderful hospitality throughout. But just not here.
There is a lot of nice tile, the courtyard and room is very beautiful. The property is clean.

ThailandThe room we booked had a bath tub that did not work, which we absolutely required. We had to take a downgraded room without a patio in order to have a functioning bath tub. The room was supposed to have coffee /kettle facilities but none were available in room. This meant if you wanted coffee or tea in room you needed to go down to the restaurant to ask for it. Normally not a big issue but if you were on our original booked room there are seven levels of narrow winding stairs to navigate up and down. Be warned if you stay here you must be in decent shape to navigate the very narrow and steep stairs to all the rooms. And you may need to climb quite a few levels. The staff will handle your bags but it is hard on them also! The room also lacked disposable (or any) slippers which I consider absolutely mandatory for this type of establishment and price point. We luckily had some with us but they really should be provided in room as it is cool floors, and frankly the floors are old so they are perfectly clean. There is a A la carte menu in room but when we asked we can only order a set menu with very limited choices, for approx 40 euro per head. Upon looking at other guests plates we determined this was drastically overpriced especially compared to proper 5 star resort meals we had elsewhere in Morocco.
The breakfast is fairly simple containing a variety of bread, cake and pastry items alongside coffee (or tea if you ask). Fresh squeezed orange juice, meat slices (beef), yogurt, egg and cheese are also provided. Aziz patiently attended to special requests and was always very polite. I often asked for him to fill a thermos of hot water during my stay and he was always polite and accommodating.

FranceBe careful when booking that you have the correct Maison Bleue, as one has a pool and the other hasn't, and they are in two different locations. The hotel directory is very out of date, so the prices quoted are not the same in reality.
Staff very friendly. Location excellent. Nice sizeable room, with beautiful views.
