Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
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...).

United KingdomFirst of all the staff… absolutely brilliant, couldn’t do enough for us… special mention to hayat and hajiba who were outstanding. The location is very good for the palaces and a short walk from the main square. Only down side ( and it’s small beer TBH)… the rooms are very dark and there is no kettle in the room, so you have to ask for tea ( and pay for it) on a morning.

United StatesThis world-wide and weary traveler landed at 6am in the morning and went directly to Dar Les Cigognes to drop off luggage with the intention of strolling around Marrakesh until check-in time. Everything you read about this Dar is true: charming, well-located, clean, VERY service oriented with its own restaurant and hammam/spa services and the terrace is magnificent. But then...I inadvertently dozed off in their serene little courtyard in a cozy cushioned corner. When I woke up there was a pot of mint tea, a tray of cookies, and the staff had covered me with a blanket while I was sleeping. Morrocans are known for their gracious hospitality and Dar Les Cigognes is an outstanding example of customer kindness and care.

United StatesI rented a car and because the stay is in the old medina I opted for storing the car and taking taxis when needed. The traffic is overwhelming for those not accustomed to it.
Dar Les Cigognes was an amazing stay. The staff treated us like family. It really felt like we were staying with relatives and loved ones. The Riad was so beautiful and cozy. The services offered for massage and dining were better than anything we did outside of the Riad. It is close to a lot of the sights around the old medina in Marrakesh. There was a ton of markets around within walking distance. I would definitely recommend this stay.

United KingdomThe only downside was there was no kettle in the room . But we always got hot drinks whenever we needed from the kitchen . Owner , a lovely lady from UK spoke to us and she mentioned that she will sort that issue with the kettle for future visits and they had it already available if needed .
We had a lovely stay!the room was spacious and spotless and staff was incredibly friendly and helpful and all of them went out of their way to make us feel at home . To name few Hayat( manager),Haseeba, Azeez and Abdu. First time we were staying in a riyad house and it was one of the greatest experience for us. We had a very warm welcome and staff managed to cook an amazing dinner even though we ordered it a bit late. Staff helped with stay and were available whenever we needed them for eg collecting food deliveries and speaking to delivery drivers when we were struggling with the language. They were happy to give instructions on daily trips and were very polite and was happy to repeat them if we didn’t understand anything. We also got fireplace done daily as place was cold at night at that time . It just felt like home as staff never made you feel like you are in a hotel. Roof top restaurant was nice with good seating and indoor plants and it was nice to sip some tea and relax in the evening . Hammam was available at request and it was a nice experience We really felt bad after 6 days of stay as staff has become so friendly and we had a great farewell with everyone coming and greeting us out of the way and it felt great ! I would love to write much more but rest be assured you will never regret if you are staying here in your Moroccan trip. Also very near to airport and it was in the middle of medina and many tourist sites

United KingdomThe very busy street outside at certain times of day was manic on occasions.
Manager and staff were very friendly. Book a better room than the standard if you can , as these have seating areas. Our room was smaller, .which meant sitting on the bed when in during the day. Mind you the terrace was brilliant , colourful with birds and bees flying around made it a wuiet haven in the city. Loved our stay . Internet didn't work inside our room, but did outside the door and all common areas.

Everything about this place is gorgeous: the calming and beautiful interior, the welcome of the staff (Hayat especially but they are all so helpful and nice), the generous and delicious breakfast . Dar les cigognes is in the Medina and a short walk from place Jamaa el fna and easy access to the markets. Finally the roof terrace is a must to relax after a busy day walking around town .

United StatesI had an amazing stay at this riad in Marrakech! The rooms and bathrooms were incredibly comfortable, with beautiful decor that created a serene and luxurious atmosphere. The water pressure in the shower was excellent—a small detail, but it made a big difference. Breakfast each morning was delicious, featuring a variety of fresh and flavorful options to start the day right. The rooftop terrace was a true highlight, offering breathtaking views of the royal palace and a peaceful spot to relax. The standout feature of this riad, though, was the staff. Every team member was outstanding, but Hayat deserves special recognition for making me feel completely at home. Her kindness, respect, and warm hospitality made my experience unforgettable. I will definitely return to this beautiful place and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Marrakech!

A traditional house with a stunning roof top terrace with far reaching views and nice place to relax.
