Riad Catalina

I loved staying there. Staff were kind friendly thoughtful. The food was good. Pool and beers were there when we wanted it. Fab place I would go back.

Before you read this review, you should realize that my husband and I are very easy travelers. We don't expect much from a hotel and typically shop hotels based on location as opposed to creature comforts. While the location of the Riad Catalina was excellent, and the main areas were beautiful and seemed well maintained, our room was lacking. There were bugs everywhere. The shower did not drain and flooded the floor. The room itself appeared to be nice, but generally I just felt dirty after staying there for a night. Granted, we did not lodge a formal complaint to the management and they may have been more than willing to move us. But- given the choice of hundreds of beautiful Riads in Morocco, I might give this one a pass.

This riad is full of character and the staff very friendly. It lived up to our expectations as the decor is traditional and we were delighted to be upgraded free of charge to a lovely suite which was full of Morrocan charm. We ate in on the first night and the food was authenitic and plentiful. Unfortunately it was too cold to try out the rooftop pool and make use of the terrace. Our teenage boys enjoyed the whole experiece and we have come away with very fond memories.

Hotel staff explained there was a problem with the dar we were staying in and we were sent to another riad. We were told it was an upgrade. Was it? Ultimately I do no know but judging from riad Catalina which looked lovely I doubt it. That said road Catalina were courteous and we used their facilities throughout our stay.

Nice hotel and guest friendly and helpful staff. Arranged central Morocco trip, provided all the necessary assistance. This made the rest of entire stay in Morocco very pleasant experience. Thank you for that!

Riad Catalina is a well-maintained spot that oozes with rustic charm. My wife and I were a bit worried during our taxi ride from the airport. We didn't know what to expect about the area in which we'd be staying, and having to walk through back alleyways to get to the riad didn't do much to assuage our concerns. The riad itself, however, was extremely peaceful and picturesque. The staff was very nice, and the roof offered a beautiful veiw of the city. We loved that the riad was quiet enough to afford us some much-needed peace and quiet, but close enough to the square and the souks to frequent those locations. Would definitely recommend this place!

Riad Catalina is a haven within the bustle of the Medina. It is ideally situated close to the main square, but not too far into the maze of alleyways so you can find your way back easily. The staff are great and always on hand to provide tips and recommendations of places to go. The rooms were comfortable and air conditioned and the roof terrace with plunge pool was beautiful. You can also have a meal in the Riad and they serve alcohol and have wi-fi in the communal areas. I would definitely go back!

I have not stayed at any other Riad but this one was really comforting and almost five star hotel service is provided. People who work here are really nice and helpful.

Beautiful Riad in a very central location. Bit hard to find at first, but that adds to the charm. Staff are very friendly and helpful. I would recommend Riat Catalina without hesitation.

Overpriced, dirty and not very nice place. Stay somewhere else!
