The rooms are clean and the food is fresh. the staff are happy to serve you at any time. I would highly recommend and sure will visit again. Thanks to all the staff was in the Palais they are great.

A beautiful, welcoming oasis

This is a gorgeous Riad with a lovely courtyard garden. Rooms are unique and ornately Moroccan. There are some minor imperfections but these are to be expected in a place of such originality and character. The rooftop terrace is a lovely place to relax at the end of the day and have mint tea. The service is outstanding! The food is good but not great, the riad’s weakest point, but I would recommend it without hesitation and would certainly stay here again.

Very noisy after hours

The main dining is just outside the room so if you have a group staying late for dinner and drinks after it can get very loud. We asked the front desk at around midnight to see if they could get the guests to lower the noise and nothing changed. Also if you sleep late, the noise is there in the morning. Other then that the experience was good.

Disliked: Staff & service

Seen as a 'walking dollar' sign.

Attitude by staff to guests, particularly in restaurant is bordering on rude. Very obvious one is seen as a 'walking dollar'. Restaurant bills need to be checked as do check-out details. Suites were considerably larger than classic rooms, but for guests in ground floor rooms definitely not private, unless you drew the curtains! Our classic room on first floor was very dark, small and narrow. The location in the medina was good. The photos of the hotel are basically accurate but there is no way to identify atmosphere!
