This was our second stay at this Riad and again it was a very satisfying stay. The double rooms in this beautifully restored Riad are large, neat and pleasant and unlike many other Riads the bathroom is also well appointed with a good shower and lots of warm water. Breakfast was a delicious assortment of baked breads and pastries. Cecile... More

We had a lovely two night stay at Riad Marhaba. Our taxi driver had no idea where this Riad was so he stopped at the other end of the medina and put us in the hands of a fellow who seemed to be a guard of some sort and who took us on a circuitous route right to the front... More

We stayed in this amazing and 1001-nights riad with our children. My daughter felt like a princess staying in suite Bahia. The riad is perfectly clean. Shower, airco en internet worked very well and the breakfast was the best we'd had in Morocco! We would really love to stay here again!!! Special thanks to Sila. He made us feel very... More

We had a very comfortable stay at Riad Marhaba. We were in the Suite Chellah which had a quiet, cozy bedroom and spacious private lounge area with excellent WiFi reception. Breakfast on the terrace was excellent. The owners and staff were very friendly and gave us a personal map with restaurant recommendations. The room decor could use a bit of... More

While we did struggle to find Riad Marhaba (having not sought/received accurate directions prior to arrival - the Medina is a maze!), once we did we were glad of our decision to stay here during our time in Rabat. The owners and staff are very friendly, and the rooms have been tastefully restored. it is reasonably priced compared to other... More

We stayed for 4 nights at this Riad in April 2011 and enjoyed every bit of it. We had the Chellah suite, which is very comfortable. The bed was very good and everything was perfectly clean. The location of the riad inside the medina is really nice, the French owners are very hospitable and welcoming, they gave us a map... More

The owners unfortunately dont speak perfect english, but no problem mixing with our limited french!! The riad is in excellent position, 15/20 minutes from the train station walking, in the center of the medina and close to main attractions! Unfortunately it was... More

Staff and owner speak limited English, so if you speak French it is easier to communicate. Our limited French was sufficient. Beds are comfy and breakfast is tasty, good location (15 min walk from train station), overall a pleasant stay.
