I recently had the pleasure of staying at Palais Medina Riad Resort, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the breathtaking architecture, which beautifully blends traditional Moroccan elegance with modern luxury. The atmosphere is serene, making it the perfect getaway for relaxation. One of the highlights of my stay was the exceptional service. The staff went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of my visit was perfect. They were warm, welcoming, and always ready to assist with a smile.

Staff is professional and very attentive to serve, although the Hotel amenities and rooms need a fresh up. No iron, no small towels in the room, beside that hotel is quiet and pleasant to stay. Special thanks to the tea-man at the lobby, his smile and the taste of the tea made our day :)

It was supposed to be five star but it seems that they are about to sell or have been sold to another company as not much happening in this hotel. The room is old and dated there are coffee cups there but no kettle nor tea bags. The sitting area in the room has lots of brown stains. Bathroom was nice. Pool is great its huge and nice design. What we did not like is the service. We went 30 mins before they close (they closed so early 6pm in Summer time) and wanted to order food but they no longer serve and told us to order in the restaurant. Went there only to be told that they dont serve dinner until another hour. So I thought we will just order room service but they dont want to bring the food at the pool side. Only allowed to eat in the room. Suffice to say we did not enjoy the stay in this hotel.

Previously stayed here before but declined since in standard. Check in took over an hour due to inability to process a CC from another country. Rooms required daily asks for items such as towels. Shower leaked whenever used causing dangerous conditions. Sink basin fell hitting foot one morning. 5star maybe once, but not anymore!
