We had a lovely four night stay at this Riad. The staff were lovely and the Riad beautiful and lovely and clean. A lovely breakfast on the roof terrace was a great start to each day. The position is great, right in the centre of the Souk area, but the hotel was very quiet so always had good nights on the very comfortable bed.

This was a Riad attached to another one with a shared reception. The breakfast was great and the room very beautiful. It had a separate seating area and the Riad was very quiet. Very accommodating staff and great location (after the porter with the cart and your bafs figures out where it is :).

Although the Riad is exceptionnally beautiful and comfortable, it is rather difficult to acces through a maze of back alleys and tunnels. Ths staff is very helpful and understanding, especially Yasin and Amina. The Riad is clean and the food is very good. I would recommend it for seasonned travelers.

Beautiful riad with great cooking!

This is such a beautiful riad with very friendly service. They will make you feel like you’re home. I would also recommend you order dinner here - it’s one of the best meals I had in Morocco and you can eat it on the rooftop terrace with wonderful views. Our rooms were spacious and comfortable. The riad itself is beautiful and authentic.

Winter Sunshine

We stayed during Feb half-term, in the quest of some winter sunshine. We had a wonderful time, Right in the heart of the old town, but the hotel was so calm and peaceful. They looked after us extremely well, and collected us from the airport - just as well as we would never have found the place by ourselves... Note for future guests - they meet you outside the terminal building

FRANCISCO

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
AWFUL Place. It's not a 4-star hotel as it promotes; it is a house guest and a poorly run one. The rooms are dirty and not well kept; the carpets looked like they have not been clean in months. The water pressure in the shower was little next to none. The bed in the room was broken down the mattress made it impossible to sleep. There are no facilities, like places to eat or drink, free or paid. The Hotel is hard to find, it is deep inside the Medina, and you have to walk in some dark alleys with no proper signs to find the hotel. Overall, AVOID this property, there are more convenient and better places you can stay in the Medina or outside of it. If you are looking for a nice place to rest and relax while exploring the city, this is not the place to stay. If you already booked please cancel and book another place. Otherwise, they will try to charge the whole amount or another amount that come up at their discretion.

It was amazing everyone was very friendly and Yassine was an exceptional host! The Riyadh was beautiful and quiet very close to the square but far enough away to be calm. We felt like we were staying in a palace!

A great find

I picked Riad because of location, which was perfect for where I needed to be. Only a non English speaking member of staff when I arrived but she called the Manager so I could speak to him on the phone. Very different place to stay. Restored to an excellent level.
