Maison Manzano

sehr gut, stilvoll, außerordentlich freundliches Personal

Mobiliar auf Terrasse war etwas in die Jahre gekommen

Die Lage mitten in der Medina, man kann alles sehr gut zu Fuß in wenigen Minuten erreichen. Eine Oase der Ruhe mit einer fantastischen Dachterrasse zum Frühstücken, Abendessen oder Sonnenbaden. Die moderne Einrichtung in marokkanischem Stil. Am allermeisten haben wir uns über Bader und sein Team gefreut. Immer hilfsbereit, gut gelaunt und mit wertvollen Tipps haben sie unseren Aufenthalt zu einem besonderen Erlebnis gemacht. Vielen Dank, wir kommen bestimmt wieder.

Lovely, intimate Riad with tasteful, minimalist, contemporary interior design - Moroccan influenced without being kitsch - elegant light fittings and traditional Moroccan plaster ('tadelakt') bathrooms. The larger Jasmine room we stayed in was spacious and light, with a fireplace and armchairs. We had pre-booked dinner the first night, which was simple but excellent. Le Foundouk restaurant (with rooftop) - recommended by the Riad and 2 mins walk away - was absolutely fantastic (although just short of London prices it was well worth it). The location was good, not too far from the taxi drop off (the Riad can arrange transfers) and around the corner from the stunning Ben Yousef Madrassa. It was 10-12 minutes walk to Jemaa el-Fnaa and about 30 minutes to Jardin Majorelle. Breakfast on the roof top terrace was excellent. Last but not least, the staff were exceptional - warm, polite and very helpful (as was the driver who did the transfers). We would definitely stay there again.

More dessert options might be worth the management considering but then desserts are my thing. Nothing else.

Difficult to find but well worth the effort. Fabulous managers helped us save money on a booking, so, so very friendly and helpful. Gave us coffee and Moroccan bread on a couple of afternoons when I asked. Breakfast was delicious, and Bader added fruit to the yogurt upon request. The bed was very comfortable. The rooftop seating area for breakfast, available anytime, was lovely, including climbing flowers and birds filling the air with song.

Minor inconveniences included the low water pressure, the lack of a door in the bathroom (although there was one in the toilet area), and the housekeeping staff's failure to provide hand towels for a couple of days and to clean the sink area on one occasion. These were all very minor. Location is difficult to find, so take photos of the entrance when you go out to make it easier to find.

We had an amazing time due to the hospitality of the team of Riad Capaldi.

Breakfast included and it was on the roof. The attendants walked us to and from our airport shuttle (we'd have never found it on our own... easy to get lost here!)

no internet in the rooms, only in the shared spaces
