Rahat, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent location and enchanting atmosphere.

Amazing Riad in the heart of the Medina. Easy to find with Google Maps and no need for taxi or tuk tuk for the most part. The Riad makes you feel like you've escaped into your own private estate in Morocco.
Enrique, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely riad in the centre of the old city. Easy to find and a little bit out of the busiest bits of the medina, so makes a calmer place to return to after a day in Marrakech
Bronwen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The Riad Karmela property immerses you in the enchanting atmosphere of old Morocco. However, I found its location to be somewhat inconvenient. It is situated in the heart of the Medina market, which can be overwhelming when trying to find transportation, as no cars can enter the area. The service and the hotel workers at the Riad were outstanding.
Mayra, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The best customer services. The staff is ready to help you
Jaime, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

From the moment we arrived, the staff was so hospitable and lovely. Everyone was kind, helpful and competent. We had an issue with ants or some tiny bugs in our bathroom (also almost 40° C weather) and they made sure to take care of it and make sure we were comfortable. It is a beautiful, centrally located, very Instagram worthy Riad.

We love this place. The service is amazing. Anything you ask is no problem. The food is great and this time as a treat we took the mini princesse the private apartment with its own roof terrace and three en-suite bedrooms and downstairs living area. Said the manager was amazing and took care of us - we will definitely come again Katie
