Guest Reviews

• olivier (10/5): -
• Xavier (10/5): - Parfaitement situé près de Bab Monsour, beau riad aux chambres superbement décorées. Mais c'est surtout l'accueil simple et chaleureux que je recommande, ainsi que le plaisir tranquille de la terrasse.
• Grauf (3/5): -
• Audegond (7/5): - Emplacement idéal Chambre un peu vétuste
• PEDRO (4/5): - La ubicación Falta de limpieza, faltaba luz en el baño. la habitación cutre

• Elena (6/5): - Отель в риаде, в старом доме, аутентично Очень шумно, окна как ширма, не останавливают ни звук, ни холод.
• Sascha (10/5): - Der orientalische Flair Alles gut
• Elizabeth (10/5): - Friendly staff, beautiful room in a historic building and in an amazing location. Incredible rooftop views and excellent breakfast served up top. Everything was perfect.
• Simón Aguado (10/5): Increíble Riad con vistas y desayuno estupendo - Las habitaciones, amabilidad, y el pedazo desayuno con vistas increibles
• Muhammad Fahad (8/5): Old but clean Riad - The staff! Super friendly and helpful. The room and toilets were clean. The building needs some major renovation. But overall super clean.
• Eduardo Ruben (10/5): . - Ok Ok
• Taras (7/5): Подходит для недолгого пребывания - Останавливались на три дня во время Рамадана. В отеле кроме нас практически никого не было, в этом плюс. Но очень холодно! Кондей на обогрев ставили 24/7. И всё равнт дубак. Комната порядочная, но почему-то в ней не было шкафа... персонал приятный, отзывчивый, на первом этаже свой магазин ковров держит хозяин (или кто-то еще). На завтраки персонал просыпался под нас, ели наверху на террасе...терраса классная, места много и виды красивые... - холодно - очень шумно поздно вечером и рано утром... просто ощущение, что кто-то зашел в номер и орёт! - нет шкафа в номере
• Marie Raymonde (7/5): - Très bon accueil gérant sympathique bon petit déjeuner La chambre aurait besoin d'un rafraîchissement pour plus de clarté et de refaire la salle de bain qui est vraiment en mauvais état

• Federica (10/5): Tutto perfetto e terrazza panoramica super - Sono stati gentilissimi e molto disponibili, ci hanno dato molti consigli utili. Ho passato molto tempo sulla loro bella terrazza sorseggiando ottimo tè alla menta
• Georgina (7/5): - Fantastic location in the Medina, right next to Al-Hadeem Square. The complimentary breakfast was delicious, and the staff were incredibly attentive, they even let us store a bottle of wine in their fridge. The terrace offers a lovely view over Meknes. The property could benefit from some basic renovation. The towel holder felt loose when I hung a towel, and although the sheets were clean, the place would benefit from a thorough deep clean.
• Katia (9/5): Molto bene! - Posizione comodissima, colazione abbondante e molto buona, staff gentilissimo. Camera ubicata su strada chiassosa fino a tardi
• Ming (9/5): Valuable Stay at the Centre of Medina - The room is comfortable, while the restaurant on the terrace has nice views. The staff were helpful. Nil.
• Gerald (10/5): Exceptional -
• Steve (7/5): Good - Excellent location & view from roof top terrace ... great hosts ... fantastic breakfast. Room large Was some renovation going on at the time in the next room. Room itself was a little dark
• Anne (9/5): Good place to stay in Meknes - Great location, fantastic roof terrace and lovely team. A handsome breakfast! Dinner was good too. It would have been nice to have fruit at breakfast, but this is minor. The riad is slightly run down but thankfully not to its detriment - it’s clean, excellent showers and comfy beds.
• Dongyue (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rafael (10/5): Very good - Owner very very Nice, always smiling and singing, always ready to help. The space is really beautiful, The Room that we stay also. Everything was clean and acces to hot Water. Amazing rooftop with good view!!
• Sonia (10/5): Exceptional -
• Olivier (10/5): Great Riad - Extremely helpful hosts and amazing breakfast on the well situated roof terrace, which I can recommend for sunsets
• Yannic (1/5): Don’t go here! It’s not worth it, even when it would be free. - Location was perfect and staff was nice. It’s an old very run down place. Everything is super dirty, all covered in dust or sticky. The bathroom hasn’t been maintained, reeks of sewage and is moldy. The room is damp and without windows. The blankets reeked of artificial strawberry. The breakfast was mediocre and the butter served was rancid and clearly past expiration date. To top it all off there was no running water in the morning when we had an early check out and there was no staff to be found. Can’t recommend this place to anyone, I strongly advise to go somewhere else.
• Andrea (7/5): Good - Mohammed and his staff were very kind and helpful. The location is in the centre of Medina and the terrace has a wonderfull view. Breakfast was good. The airconditioning system was not working efficiently, so we were a little cold during the night. The bathroom was not cleaned, but after our request, was immediately and properly cleaned.
• Fred (9/5): Breakfast on rooftop terrace with exceptional views - The manager was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast on the terrace with an exceptional view was excellent. The distance from the nearest street is 150-200 meters over a bumpy pedestrian street in the old city making it difficult to roll in luggage
• Hu (10/5): Exceptional -
• Hamza (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nicholas (10/5): Exceptional -
• Monique (10/5): Exceptional - Super friendly staff, good food in a lovely old riad
• Elisa (8/5): Very good - The owner is great! If he wants to lead you somewhere, just go :) he has very interesting stories to tell and knows beautiful places. The palace of the professor with its terrace is incredible, go on the top for the sunset Big room and big toilet In the center of Medina Our window is on the street: at 7 am we were awake and from 4 to 5.30 am we were also awake! Some drunk local dudes (yes) decided to stay exactly under our window to scream to the moon in Arabic.
• Aymane (9/5): Superb - The breakfast was amazing, the staff were very helpful and thoughtful. All in all, for the first time in years, it felt like SWEET HOME.🫂🤍
• Raoul (9/5): A winner - The riad is in a perfect location in the old town. It is in a beautiful old house with amazing tiles and decor. We had a spacious room with bathroom, hot water, air conditioning that worked well, the bed was comfortable; the delicious ncluded breakfast on the roof terrace was a highlight - an amazing way to start the day! The staff were very friendly. We would definitely stay there again.
• Sebastien (6/5): Pleasant -
• Quadri (10/5): Exceptional - They staff were helpful. They were willing to accommodate all our requests during our stay. The breakfast is also good.

• Footloose (10/5): Exceptional -
• Giovanni (8/5): Very good - Mohamed is the best you can find 😀 Lot of places in town are under renovations
• Abdellah (7/5): Good -
• Rebecca (6/5): A bit underwhelming for the price - Great location, beautiful old building, good breakfast. Cold (in March), not non-smoking, in need of a bit of attention, no toilet paper
• Evgeniia (8/5): Good stay in the medina - Good location, the staff is very friendly. The city view from the terrace is great and the breakfast is nice. The same criticism for every hotel in the medina - the wifi is a little unstable hahaha And the room window went out into a corridor, so it was a little dark, but nothing to ruin the impression.
• Stella (9/5): Exeptional Breakfast and Kindness! -
• Malek (9/5): Superb -
• Borough (9/5): Superb - Mohammed made us feel at home! the room was very quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful. The bed was large and the room was heated. The Moroccan idea of hot water doesn't match the European one! :)
• Emanuela (10/5): Great place in Meknes Medina! - Great breakfast, wonderful welcome and beautiful room and terrace. Mohammed made us feel at home from the first moment. Nothing. All perfect!
• Ruben (9/5): Superb -
• Annah (10/5): Exceptional - Good riad very well located. Greatly helpful staff. Very nice terrace and hearty breakfast
• Jan (8/5): Very good - We booked a room with private bathroom. Bathroom would need a renovation but it was clean. Locatin was also pretty good. They serve nice breakfast on the rooftop and was very kind.
• Liisa (8/5): Very good -
• Van (9/5): Superb - Staff incredibly friendly. Coffee and tea on the house.
• Suebpong (9/5): Nice stay in a Meknes - It is located in the old town, near historic site. Staff is very friendly and helpful. There is a rooftop/restaurant. The view is nice. Price is reasonable.
• Agoston (9/5): Superb -
• Rick (10/5): Perfect ! - Easy to find. In the center of the Medina. Fantastic breakfast at the roofterras with an amazing view. Very friendly welcome by the staff.
• Kim (7/5): Welcoming good budget option in the Medina - The staff was excellent, Mohamed came out to greet us and help us find the car park as we arrived late and couldn’t find the place, he went above and beyond with his hospitality and made our visit great, he even took us for a short city tour for free. The breakfast was our best yet! The location is close to the parking lot and walking distance to sites. The bathrooms really need to be updated and our room was roomy but a bit dark.
• Dejan (7/5): Historic house but lot of noise from the medina - Breakfast was tasty and served at a lovely terrace on the rooftopof the hotel. The staff were kind in accommodating us with breakfast timings, and they recommended us a parking lot before arriving (Lalla Aouda). Our room was large and the house very historic as it used to be a medresa. Unofrtunately, the area was very loud and we could not fall asleep until 1 am. The windows are facting the medina which was probably partiularly noisy that day due to a holiday. This really impacted our experience.
• Joanna (10/5): Highly recommended - Amazing rooftop, great hospitality, absolutely friendly owner and stuff, perfect location, awesome breakfast. It was a great stay. Our room had a window going out to the corridor, but it did not matter much because it only encouraged us to stay more on the terrace.
• Enrico (10/5): Exceptional -
• Andrey (9/5): Superb - Nice hotel inside the medina. Rooms are spacious. Their rooftop is amazing.
• Anonymous (10/5): Amazing 👌 - Everything it’s good wallah Nothing

• Jeffrey (10/5): Wonderful hospitality!! - Excellent Riad. Awesome host. None!
• Ilyas (8/5): It was nice and comfy, and easy access to everywhere, we liked it - We really enjoyed our stay at Riad Selma. Everything was great and staff was very friendly. The owner is very caring and keeps checking if you're okay and he'd go out of his way to look after you. We def recommend this place and we will stay here again if we are in Meknes. Thanks
• Hidaya (10/5): Exceptional - I really liked the location the decorations was traditional and so beautiful everything was clean and well organized, the staff also were so kind and lovely... I would definitely like to comeback again ❤️
• Anonymous (9/5): priceless! - very good breakfast! friendly staff and a very nice view from the tarrace…
• Olla (9/5): Superb - The hotel is in the old part of the city so it is very close to shops, the market, and cafes. Everything is within walking distance. The staff is extremely helpful and very kind. It was definitely great to have breakfast up on the roof every morning. I even had a friend (who was not staying at the hotel) come have breakfast with me and they did not charge us anything extra. The bed was not very comfortable, but I was only staying for a couple of nights so it wasn't a big problem. The bathroom is also small. It looks exactly as the pictures show & it is old but everything works.
• Monique (9/5): Pleasant stay - The balcony, locations and rooms are beautiful. Very welcoming host. The bed was very hard
• Julian (7/5): nice place but little things can spoil one’s stay - a nice breakfast comfortable bed lively views from terrace the bathroom tiles need to be changed the current ones make it most uninviting
• Andrew (10/5): Exceptional -
• Pierre-louis (4/5): Couldn’t wait to leave. - The terrace and the staff was nice. Room did not look clean, looked like a dungeon .The pillow was hard as a rock. Bathroom was awful. Toilet was loose, bathroom looked old and dirty. Noisy room, could hear noise till midnight. They recommended a restaurant, which was awful! It was the most expensive place in morocco, and the worst riad we visited. Should gave cist 30 dollars not 73 dollars.
• Basma (10/5): great staff and nice rooftop - location is great and staff are helpful nothing
• Giulia (8/5): Advised! Good value for money - Amazing terrace and breakfast! The staff was super nice and helpful Bathroom could have been slightly clearer
• Westrick (9/5): Superb -
• Aurelia (10/5): Exceptional - Our stay was really great! The location is right in the medina, the rooms are clean and comfortable and the terrace is beautiful and has a great view over the city! The owner and all of the crew of the riad are really nice and were always willing to help us and make our stay perfect! We could even leave our luggage there after the check out and chill on the terrace! Thanks a lot for everything!
• Marija (10/5): Exceptional - Best thing about riad Selma is the people. Such great hospitality! You feel right at home. On top of that great location, very clean, the breakfast is delicious and hearty. And again, AMAZING staff and so kind. Thank you for all your help, hospitality and kindness. If we're ever in Meknes, I will definitely stay there. We loved it and wholeheartedly recommend.

• Geoffroy (10/5): Great place!!! Verstuurd - Arrived 4hrs early but could occupy the room anyway. Owner and staff are very friendly and helpful. Nice warm room and very quiet. Breakfast was top. Complimentary Rea and coffee loved it! What's there not to like?
