This riad is a gem. Our room was huge, clean and very comfortable. The staff is extremely friendly, even bringing us a wonderful bottle of wine with nuts and chips on our first of two nights. It was all very comfortable and I would recommend this riad.

Hafid and the team looked after us from the day we arrived, right up until the final day we had to rush to a taxi to catch a connecting train to Marrakech. We were provided an excellent taxi service arranged by the Riad from Marrakech. The riad and our room were even more immaculate than the pictures, an absolute dream. Can’t wait to come back and stay even longer than a week on the future.

Felt like royalty in this small palace!
Incredible experience!! The host was amazing and so friendly! It was an absolute treat to stay in this small palace and was perfect for our family to spend time together in the very comfortable and luxurious suites. We loved the breakfast all together on the patio. Such a memorable and special stay!

A stunning hidden gem of a traditional riad, a former governors house with with only 5 or 6 exsquisite rooms each depicting breathtaking tiling, archways, seating areas and alcoves. The receiving great room and gardens are stunning. The hostess greeting and breakfast setting and presentation was of royal standards. The birds, herons and fish of the central gardens offer a tranquil central garden experience few spas could match. They accomodated our very late check-in, and thank you "Rashid" for assistance for nearby parking and luggage assistence.

Inside the Riad is gorgeous. The small lily pond in the center was serene surrounded by other plants and trees. The reception was very welcoming and helpful when determining where to visit El Jadida. It was a little bit noisy during the night, but overall the property was a hidden gem within the city.

Beautiful road located right in the middle of El Jadida. Within walking distance to the cistern. It is located on a pedestrian only road, but if you contact the hotel before arrival they will tell you where to park. The staff were attentive and made sure our room was ready for our arrival. We thoroughly enjoyed the spread at breakfast! The rooms and common areas are beautifully decorated.

Not only was this the best property we stayed at in Morocco, but it was hands down the best accommodation I've ever experienced! We stayed in a large family suite and extended our visit. The room was absolutely stunning, the staff were friendly and always available. The serene courtyard helped us feel miles away from civilization - it was the perfect start to our week long Moroccan vacation. We were able to decompress before our adventure. The city of El Jadida was also wonderful because it wasn't filled with tourists.

Charm and Elegance
This is an exceptional place, the atmosphere is total peace and calm, the suites are stunning, breakfast was cooked to order with lots of high quality choice and very tasty. I felt treated like a very special guest, the whole experience was just that, a real experience, i only wish i could have stayed longer. The general manager was welcoming and helpful, and gave a lovely insight into the Riad and its illustrious past. The only thing more perfectly elegant and beautiful than the Riad itself was the charming owner who could not have been more personable and hospitable. I could not fault it.

Unbelievable Stay
I never would have dreamed such an amazing space would exist and we would have an opportunity to stay in a ancient Governor's Villa. The staff were welcoming and helpful. The traditional suite was just gorgeous. The tub was actually luxurious and the breakfast in the living room was delightful. It is a destination spot for sure. If food was served throughout the day, we could have just stayed in the Villa for days.
