Editorial policy

Who we are

An editorial catalogue funded independently of the properties it assesses.

What this publication is

Clostavia is an independent editorial publication covering resort hotels and entertainment destinations across Morocco and Egypt. We assess properties, publish scores, and explain the reasoning; we do not sell rooms, take commission on bookings, or accept payment for placement.

Every assessment follows the same six-part rubric, applied on site. Both the score and the specific weakness we found are published, without softening.

The rubric

Our editors complete the same six-part assessment at every property, using the weights below. No property receives a bespoke rubric.

  • 25% — Casino floors and lounges
  • 20% — Accommodation quality
  • 20% — Guest service
  • 15% — Food and beverage
  • 10% — Location and access
  • 10% — Rate against delivery

How we stay independent

Independence is structural rather than declared. No property in this catalogue has paid to appear, none has been given sight of its review before publication, and none can have a criticism removed.

When we link out to a hotel or a reservation service, it is for convenience. The contract that follows is yours and the property's alone.

Corrections and updates

Errors should be reported to our editorial address with the property name and the detail concerned. Confirmed corrections are published and the page's revision date is changed accordingly.
