This hotel is unique in many respects!! It’s situated in the heart of the old city and surrounded by the market place. The hotel itself is beautifully created with old apartments with marble floors and modern designs, yet leaving the feel of its 60’s era. It is far from a typical hotel that brings the Moroccan culture to anyone looking to add a memorable experience to a getaway or vacation. Rooms are clean! Beds are comfortable. And the staff is soft spoken and caring. The only improvement needed is better lighting in the courtyard at night. This hotel deserves 5 Star ratings in its own respect!

Lovely property near to everything. Excellent staff and a big thanks to Anna the receptionist, hope the spelling of her name was correct, she was awesome and made our visit even better. Thank you! One area that could be improved on is with the room anmenties the drapes in our room covering the door, sink taps need replacement and the toilet needs looking at as it leaked off and on. Other wise a very nice property with a great meet and greet receptionist. Breakfast was awesome,

The package comes with breakfast and they asked me what time I would like to have breakfast, i told them 8am. They said ok. When i woke up, no one was at the kitchen preparing the breakfast. I had to forgo the breakfast as i have a train to catch at 927am. Else the room is nice and clean.

Loved this riad. Within city walls (so have to walk a little, cars not allowed inside city walls) but was able to get someone to help with bags near taxi stand. Room we were in was spacious, clean with comfortable furniture and little outside space. Breakfast was included and excellent. Location was perfect.

I enjoyed very much my stay in Riad El Maâti, the whole place is really nice, very well located and near many things like Quai de Bouregreg. SUPER clean, the shower pressure just great, and most important of all the people that take care of the Riad. Malika and Radilla have been extremely kind and caring during my stay; very, very attentive. You can only imagine what a big heart they have and how thankful I am to have meet them! It was a GREAT surprise to have such a nice attention from all of them, it is a pleasure for me to recommend such nice places with great people here in Morocco.

This property is amazing. Tucked into old Medina it is a perfect place for those wanting to submerge themselves into the sites, sounds and smells of a large market. There is rue after rue of vendors and people are plenty full. You are a short 10 minute walk to the water where there is a wonderful restaurant on a ship. Keep in mind this riad is VERY authentic and intimate. There are only 7 guest rooms, no windows, tall walls around the entire area and tons of people the second you head out the locked front door. Very different “hotel” experience but once acclimated, very enjoyable.
