“Mixed feelings”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 July 2011

The riad itself is nicely located and looks beautiful. Also the food was nice but way overpriced. Also in other aspects we didn't like the staff who seemed to tolerate us more than that they welcomed us. For instance, after having parked the car at a place they insisted that we moved it to a place where we had to pay for it. Although we told the man who brought us to the parking place that we didn't need a guide, he pressed us to take a guide, who should be very good. However, although we said that we were not interested in buying anything but would like to see the highlights of the city, the guide only showed places where we could spend money. So we left with the feeling that they do not see us as guests but as people whom they can take money from.

“Best to stay away”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2009

This riad is dark and rather gloomy. The food was great but beware of anything fresh washed in local water, like the fruit or salad. U will most likely get really sick! Stay somewhere else more cheerful. Oh, I agree with the others that it is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy overpriced.

“Lovely Riad”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2009

The two biggest perks of this riad are the staff and the food. The staff couldn't have been more friendly, helpful and welcoming. We stayed for one night and had both dinner and breakfast at the riad. The dinner was enormous and very good and the breakfast was the best we had in Morocco. The rooms are comfortable and clean but the decor is definitely eclectic.
I wouldn't go out of your way to go to Taroudannt, but if you're there I would definitely recommend this riad.

“A real find -truly Moroccan”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 May 2009

A truly genuine Riad run by the Moroccan owners, well hidden near to the centre of Taroudant, just do not let the maze of back streets which have to be used to approach this fantastic Riad put you off. The warm welcome and calm once through the entrance are immediatly apparant. The inner courtyard is surrounded by the rooms which although not large or luxurious are more than adaquate and furnished in true Moroccan style. What is outstanding and of an extremly high standard is the food , be it breakfast, lunch or evening meal, the owners wife preparing and presenting meals of an extremly high standard. One comes away feeling as if one has been an honoured guest.

“Beautiful Riad”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2008

We just visited for dinner, demonstrating that it isn't just 'bed and breakfast, by the way. It is the most beautiful place. We had a look at the rooms, which were very nicely appointed. The meal was outstandingly good Moroccan home cooking.
