The Riad is well located inside the medina, about 3 blocks from Bab Chellah. Room was clean and breakfast was basic traditional moroccan with fruit, bread, juice. It's not fancy, but the value/price relationship is very good.

Difficult to Find Gem

The place was a little difficult to find as it did not come up exactly on my GPS; however, the staff were friendly and someone came out to meet me. Good breakfast and the front-desk person on the day of my arrival was amazing.

The Riad El Maati is traditional and yet modern and functional inside the room. It’s an easy 20 min walk from the train station. It has electrical outlets in the right places, plenty of wardrobe shelves, and built-in wall heaters. The terrace deck is stunning too. Staff are all very friendly and accommodating, such as for extra blanket. Flexibility with breakfast schedule on departure day. A few improvements could be a bath mat as the shower has no doors on 2 sides so the surrounding floor will always get wet. Google map direction to the Riad is incorrect but luckily we were able to find it on our own

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.

Beautiful road near old market

Beautiful road in Rabat. You should definitely check this place out. Very friendly and helpful staff. It's newr the old market and is a great part of town to stay in and explore on foot. The breakfast was a delicious traditional full spread, served at our leisure time. We requested an early breakfast due to an early checkout, and we were gwntlye awoken by a knock on our door to let us know breakfast was ready
Neighborhood was great to explore on foot
