Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, 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 Wifi. 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 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...).

IndiaThis property is lovely! It's clean, very well maintained, and super relaxing. We loved how green, quiet, and well done it is. The hospitality is great, dinner was delicious, and the hosts are very responsive. It can be slightly difficult to find due to the windy roads. However, the hosts share a link with instructions to the location which was very helpful. All in all, it was a great experience and we definitely want to come back (and bring our parents there too!).

United States of AmericaThere's wasn't anything I didn't like. I'm pretty satisfied and surprised at how it ended up being our favorite stay in Morocco.
All the seating areas. There were so many places to sit and relax. The peace and quiet. The landscaping. The hospitality was very good. I felt taken care of by the staff. I had food poisoning the day prior (not from them, roadside orange juice) and they took care of me.

L’Ma Lodge is a jewel in a palm oasis. The property is so well maintained and beautiful. The food was great as was the service. This the most child friendly property I have seen. The main building and rooms are will designed. We had a terrace, an indoor and outdoor shower. Places to relax on the roof and in the garden. Just loved it!

Belgiumsuper friendly staff, our room even got upgraded for free. They genuinely want to provide the best experience for their customers. For example, we texted the host if we could arrive one day earlier, unfortunately they were fully booked, but he made sure we could stay at another super hotel, even gave us a discount, he gave us the google maps to the hotel with 4 stops on the way for sightseeing! Their food was the best in Morocco, you can always ask their recipes as we did!

This hotel is exceptional. The owners are very friendly and the staff is wonderful. We have travelled extensively and the service here is among the top two or three places. It is not a super luxurious hotel but very beautiful and a true oasis. For people with young children it would be incredible. The food is superb.

L'Ma is a wonderful oasis set in a palmerie. It is a gorgeous and private retreat. Our room was comfortable and clean. There is a rooftop terrace with views of the palm trees and the Atlas Mountains in the distance. We saw the pool but it was not yet open. The grounds are dotted with seating areas and hammocks. The best part was the staff. We were taken care of so well. And the dinner was superb. Good wine too. We were given suggestions for walks around the palmerie. All in all, it was a very happy experience.

United States of AmericaOur room was a little bit chilly. We were there in January 2023 (last week) and the nights get cold. The beds could use some extra blankets.
This is a beautiful oasis in Skoura. It's a little bit hard to find, but if you follow the directions in the link the hotel sends, you will be fine. The gardens are gorgeous, the food was some of the best we had in Morocco, The decor is sort of Moroccan Shabby Chic - a nice balance between feeling hip and contemporary and also authentically Moroccan. I spent a lot of time looking at various hotels and we stayed in a different place on the way to the desert which was also lovely, but next time, or if making a recommendation, I would tell people to just stay at L'Ma Lodge.

Hong KongNo WiFi in the room! There is no mobile reception in the room so I think it's important in this age to have WiFi not just in the main building but also in the guest room building - I think that's an easily fixable issue.
Lovely and charming hotel in the middle of the oasis, loved everything about it as the owners put their heart into every detail of the place, from the design of every little corner where you can sit and relax (where there are numerous), to the aroma in our room which smells so nice every time we go back, to the dinner salad whose ingredients come from their own garden. Every corner is instagrammble for those who are IG inclined. And the hotel is hidden within skoura which is a very unique place and is a large and beautiful palmerie and oasis which add to the overall feel. Highly recommend this place as a stopover on your way to desert!

FranceNothing negative.... perhaps a bit too quiet for some.
This is a stunning small hotel with beautiful gardens and 7 rooms in the heart of the Skoura palmerie. Run by a Belgium woman and her French husband and with friendly local staff. Meals are excellent. Trips with local guides are worth doing. And they can organize trips further afield (they booked a desert camp overnight for is). I visited with my 11 year old son who thought it flawless and especially loved the semi-hidden retreat areas with rugs and cushions in the garden and on the roof. The animals in a corner of the garden and the pool are also great for families. We particularly enjoyed the guided cycle ride though the palmarie, stopping off at a tiny pottery for some hands-on clay throwing (small tip expected)
