The location, inside the old town, is not difficult at all and the building itself is quite spectacular, especially the views from the terrace. But the best of our stay was the host - thank you for your patience with us ☺️

Very friendly and welcoming staff, who helped us a lot. The Riad has a roof terrace with the most amazing view over the medina - we highly recommend listening to the prayer call from up there. The Riad also had a washing machine that we could use for a small fee.

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful Riad in Meknes. The rooms were incredibly spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. The entire Riad is wonderfully quiet and truly charming, offering the perfect atmosphere to relax after a day of exploring. Breakfast was excellent as well, with plenty of delicious options. A special mention goes to Mohamed, who not only took great care of us during our stay but also kindly showed us around the city. He’s a special person, someone who felt more like a friend than just a host. We highly recommend this Riad for its beauty, tranquility, and exceptional hospitality.

The staff were very courteous and helpful. Many thanks especially to Mohammed for all his kindness. Merci beaucoup à Mohammed pour son accueil chaleureux et sa gentilesse. Nice rooftop terrace. Good breakfast. One morning we needed to leave early so the owner very kindly served us an early breakfast which we appreciated.

Very beautiful and traditional riad in the heart of Medina. The hospitality and the politeness of the owners and the staff helps you continue. Although the riad was in the crowd meknes Medina was very peaceful and without noises. If I knew it before staying would plan to stay more. Is perfectly value for money.

Excellent Riad

This is the perfect Riad that we have been hoping to find in our time in Morocco. The decor is stunning and authentic. It is very clean including linens and towels. Our room was spacious and very comfortable, we were able to choose between two rooms which was nice. Our bed was firm, but we both slept well. It was very quiet at night to sleep. The shower is great with hot water and in a shower stall. Moroccan breakfast is delicious and filling with good coffee. Wifi is very good and reaches up to the top floor rooms. The location is great. It's easy to find, on a quiet street, but in the Medina. The owner is wonderful. She is very kind, friendly and helpful. She speaks English, French as well as a few other languages, and so does the other staff. We booked a private driver through her and it worked out well. We would love to stay again if we return to Meknes.

Great Riad Stay in Meknes

We loved our stay in Meknes. It was our first time in a riad and we were delighted. The interior is very beautiful. We were there in the off season in February, so we were the only guests for our two night stay. There was great communication with our host on how to find the riad, for example, which gate to get a taxi to, which alleyway to walk down to find the accommodation, etc. The location is good. It is very close to Lahdim Square, Bab El Mansour Gate, and Dar Jami Museum. Unfortunately, during our stay Bab El Mansour and Lahdim Square were undergoing renovations, so we didn't get to have the full effect.
