Guest Reviews
- Whitman (1/5): - I was unaware of the law that required a marriage certificate. Which as of last year should be illegal. Host did not let us stay at the property. No refund policy. Nothing on their website about this.
- Tatanja (10/5): Wie in 1001 Nacht! - Von aussen unscheinbar, von innen 1001 Nacht - eine wahre Perle an sehr guter Lage!
Dar El Malaika ist ein absoluter Traum - der Garten, die Suiten, das Morgenessen, einfach alles einmalig und auf höchstem Niveau! Alles war perfekt und einmalig!
- Anka (10/5): "1001 Nacht" - Von außen so unscheinbar, doch sobald man durch die Eingangstür tritt, befindet man sich wirklich in einer anderen Welt. Märchenhaft. So viel Ruhe.... Das Personal unglaublich freundlich und angenehm - das haben wir so noch nicht erlebt. Wir wünschen dem gesamten Team nur das Beste. Die Matratzen waren für uns persönlich einfach zu hart.
- Marianne (10/5): A stunning oasis, just beautiful - A stunning oasis, just beautiful. This Riad is the best we have stayed at so far on our visit to Morocco. The last Riad’s have also been fabulous but this one is something else. So pretty and serene. Our suite, the staff, the breakfast, the pond, everything is just wonderful. Nothing.
- Magdalena (10/5): -
- Ge (10/5): So beautiful and elegant! Best place to stay and to experience in Morocco! - Absolutely a fabulous experience in this beautiful and extremely elegant Riad that was once a palace and where the local governors and their families were staying. It’s the best place we’ve ever stayed in our lives so far! Not only the artistic architectural and interior design, but also the care and attention to details by the team and all the staff. The whole experience was completely beyond imagination. We felt like prince and princess while staying here. And we will put on our wishlist to come back again!
- jean-emmanuel (8/5): -
- Danny (9/5): -
- Hanane (9/5): Amazing stay! - Beautiful Riad
- Birte (10/5): -
- Gemma (10/5): - The place is a beautiful paradise.The staff are amazing and the breakfast is excellent
- Oliver (10/5): Außergewöhnliches Riad mit großzügigen Räumlichkeiten, phantastischen Innenhof mit Garten, tolles Frühstück und Personal - Außergewöhnliches Ambiente, Ruhe, sehr freundliches Personal, großzügige Räumlichkeiten, wenige Zimmer
- Jean marie (9/5): Superbe - Un havre de calme
Le patio
La décoration Chambre un peu petite
- Andrzej (10/5): Jak chcesz się poczuć jak maharadża, to krok w dobrą stronę 😉 - Klimat, nastrój, baśniowy wystrój
- roberto (10/5): Wonderful place close to the Medina. Room was exceptional, food and staff were excellent. - Wow, what a gorgeous place. The room we had was out of this world. Felt like royalty. The manager speaks very well English and French. Breakfast was incredible. Easy to find with parking nearby. The Medina is a short walk away. We liked everything about this property.
- zhanna (10/5): - Понравилось все !!!
От администратора до обстановки !!!
Сад потрясающий
- Sylvia (10/5): aussergewöhnlich - Es war alles grossartig. Das Riad ist ein kleines Paradies und in den Zimmern fühlt man sich wie in 1001 und einer Nacht. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr bemüht um das Wohl der Gäste und das Frühstück was aussergewöhnlich. Da es bei unserem Aufenthalt regnerisch und kühl war, haben wir das Kaminfeuer beim Frühstück sehr genossen. Es war alles ok.
- Tamara (9/5): - An great oasis of calm in an otherwise hectic city. Local architecture in rooms, very unlike mass standardized hotels, super charming. EXCELLENT breakfast, huge rooms, nice courtyard, extremely nice and helpful staff. If you need to pick a place to stay in El Jadida, this is THE place to stay!! The town itself doesn't have much to see. Parking/location is a bit tricky - you will need to coordinate on whatsapp and they will help you (either finding by foot or parking). Our bathtub was the size of an apartment :) but might be tricky for older people (steps, no shower), as are the steps to the upper floor rooms. internet was too poor to run Netflix/Disney on the TV.
- Christine (10/5): Very pleasant staff, very accommodating - Staff were very accommodating and professional.
- Jakub (9/5): Best riad experience - Amazing place. Hidden gem. Peaceful haven in crazy town. Great hostss. Best of Riads to try. Nothing
- Petra (10/5): Ein Märchen aus 1001 Nacht - Ein absolutes Paradies. Man vermutet hinter der Fassade keine solche Schönheit. Bei der Unterkunft handelt es sich um einen 200 Jahre alten Stadtpalast. Wir wurden herzlich begrüßt mit Tee und Gebäck,und dann mit Informationen versorgt. Man begleitete uns zu unserem Auto und fuhr gemeinsam mit uns zu einem bewachten Parkplatz, fußläufig 2 Minuten vom Palast entfernt.
Der große Saal, der auch als Frühstücksraum fungiert, ist vollständig mit Marmor ausgegekleidet, ebenso wie das Treppenhaus und die sonstigen Räume. Das Zimmer selbst war großzügig bemessen, das Bad ausreichend versehen mit Pflegeprodukten, Toilette mit Bidet -Funktion und einer Regenwalddusche. ist bestimmt die Möglichkeit der Tee und Kaffee Zubereitung. Das Bett verfügt über eine harte Matratze, Futonähnlich ,für uns sehr angenehm. die kombinierte Heizung/Klimaanlage funktionierte wunderbar. Es war ausreichend warm.
Von der Unterkunft sind es maximal 5 Minuten Fußweg bis in das portugiesische Viertel.
Das Frühstück war ausgezeichnet, frisches Obst, frisch zubereitete Pancakes, Joghurt, Croissants. Auf Wunsch auch Eierspeisen möglich.
Das Personal ist unglaublich freundlich und hilfsbereit, auch die Damen beim Frühstück lächeln und immer um das Wohl ihrer Gäste bemüht. Es hätte nicht besser sein können. Der einzige Wermutstropfen war das für uns zu klein bemessene Bett. Personen mit einer Körpergröße von über 1,80 m werden Schwierigkeiten haben, da das Bett sehr kurz und sehr sehr schmal ist für 2 Personen . Mit der zusätzlichen Wolldecke waren aber letztendlich auch die Füße warm.

- Christine (10/5): It was a wonderful stay with a wonderful stuff -
- Marianne (10/5): -
- toshi (6/5): 静かに中庭を観ながら1日を過ごすのに良いホテルです。 - モロッコの美しき邸宅ホテル・リアドと言う事で、壁は漆喰の細かい模様の細工が施されていて大変豪華な気分でいられました。 庭では、タバコが吸えるのか時折り部屋にタバコの煙が入ってくるような…
モロッコのホテルあるあるですが
スイッチのオンオフの向きがバラバラ
- Rhonda (9/5): Very friendly staff very comfortable room excellent breakfast - Lovely room Taxi drivers find riad hard to find
- Svetlana (10/5): - Everything was perfect!
- Bourlieu (9/5): Arrivée dans un superbe palais avec un thé à la menthe accompagné de pâtisseries. - Le petit déjeuner était conforme à ce que nous espérions. Tout était frais du jour, varié et en quantité suffisante. Le personnel disponible en cas de besoin et la salle magnifique. C'est vraiment le seul bémol: la literie que j'ai trouvé très dure à mon gout.
- Kirstie (10/5): Peaceful oasis with super friendly staff - I was a bit hesitant about whether this would live up to all the rave reviews that were previously written but it so does. Super friendly staff, amazing breakfast, fun OTT decor (we were in the pink room), and amazing architecture / grandeur / escape space. Really nothing, found the bed a little hard but perfectly ok.
- Catherine (10/5): - Einfach alles war grossartig. Wir wurden königlich empfangen und bedient!
- Amber (8/5): Such a lovely oasis, near the main attractions with attentive staff. - The staff was wonderful and did their best to assist us, including transporting out bags to our room, serving tea multiple times as requested, as well as providing assistance with transport and directions. We were a family of 4 with a packed agenda; so, I only wish we had more time to just stay and enjoy the Riad. The water was cold in the tub, though the staff immediately looked to fix the issue when I reported it and even moved us to a larger room with hot water as soon as they realized they didn't have an immediate fix.
- Miroslav (10/5): - Skvělý personál, přepychový pokoj, čistota, pohodlí, skvělá až opuletní snídaně. Vyložení zavazedel z vozidla před rijádem, pak s managarem na parkoviště, kde jsme zaparkovali vozidlo (300m?). Velice milý přístup, dostali jsme informace kam na večeři, co v městě navštívit. Doporučená restaurace skvělá. Perfektní služby Není co vytknout.
- kathryn (9/5): A hidden gem. World class breakfast beautiful decor - The location and the decor were phenomenal. The gardens were a dream. Great facilities, lovely staff. Breakfast was incredible. I wanted to go out for sunrise but didn’t realise we couldn’t get out until 0830
- Daša (10/5): -
- Nisim (10/5): - הכל אין שלטי הכוונה בכניסה לרחוב בו נמצא המלון.
- Barbara (10/5): Ein unfassbar tolles Juwel - Das Riad ist einfach unvergleichbar!! Angefangen von der Gastfreundschaft (es gab immer Teatime wenn wir heim kamen), das unfassbar toll angerichtete Frühstück das ganz frisch von den super lieben Hausdamen gemacht wird, die Ausstattung der Zimmer inkl frischem Obstkorb, die Zimmer sind alle unterschiedlich und unfassbar schön. Wir würden immer wieder kommen. Es ist zu empfehlen ein Auto zu mieten um in der Gegend flexibel zu sein, aber das hat nichts mit dem tollen Riad zu tun und parken auf der Straße ist einfach.
- Moreau (10/5): Too short - 6 stars secret retreat
- GERALDINE (10/5): Merveilleux - Le lieu est incroyable. Derrière la porte d’entrée en bois du Riad se cache un magnifique jardin autour duquel se trouvent les suites toutes aussi merveilleusement bien décorées. Le petit déjeuner est divin. Bravo aux propriétaires qui ont su conserver l’âme de ce Riad tout en y apportant un très grand confort. Le redonner est délicat et attentif Rien
- Terje (10/5): - Beautiful
Property and amazing service. Thank you!
- Slawomir (10/5): - A fantastic place. An enclave of comfort and elegance. A pearl in Morocco. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
- Norma (10/5): Ein kleines Reisejuwel - Wir möchten ein herzliches Dankeschön aussprechen. Das Riad ist ein kleines Paradies inmitten der unspektakulären Medina. Mit seiner architektonischen und luxuriösen Gestaltung, der erholsamen Atmosphäre sowie dem idyllischen Innenhof mit Seerosenteich hat es uns sehr beeindruckt. Ein besonderes Dankeschön gilt dem Personal, das mit unglaublicher Freundlichkeit und unaufdringlichem Service unseren Aufenthalt perfekt gemacht haben. Es war eine unserer schönsten Unterkünfte auf unserer Rundreise mit absolutem Wiederholungspotential.
- David (9/5): Magnifique palais à conseiller - Le magnifique palais, le confort, le jardin luxuriant, le personnel très attentif et agréable, le petit-déjeuner au bord du bassin Les chambres et suites un peu trop clinquantes en comparaison avec la délicatesse des façades du jardin.
- lea (10/5): - Accueil incroyable : thé et cornes de gazelle au bord du bassin en arrivant. En rentrant le soir après dîner, on nous a proposé une verveine avant d'aller dormir. Nous avons eu la chance d'être surclassé dans la chambre du gouverneur qui était incroyable....petit déjeuner magnifique avec des petites attentions, sous les hibiscus, datura, au bord des bassins de nénuphar et avec le bruit des fontaines. Enchanteur. Lit un peu dur
- Stuart (10/5): You MUST stay here . . . - Amazing place to stay. So serene, so calm, so clean, so perfect. Nothing at all.
- VINCENT (9/5): Bon moment - parfait
personnel attentif
petit dej frais et dans un cadre proche du reve
Le lieu est tres surprenant on voyage dans le temps Une machine Nespresso dans la chambre pourrait etre mise pour qui n'aime pas le the ou la tisane
- Ena (10/5): -
- Stefano (10/5): -
- Salima (9/5): Prachtige riad om tot rust te komen en heerlijk te laten verwennen door het personeel. - Prachtige Riad in een simpel straatje, je stapt een klein paleisje in met veel groen op de binnenplaats met zelfs een vijver. Superromantisch! Het personeel krijgt een 10! Zij weten hoe ze gasten moeten behandelen. Niets
- Hamoudi (10/5): -
- Puech (10/5): -
- christophe (10/5): Riad des milles et unes nuits - Le palais est magnifique et le petit déjeuner était excellent et très copieux. Le personnel était très serviable et très sympathique Tout était parfait
- Jalal (10/5): -
- Gabrié (10/5): Parfait ! - Un riad magnifique, un personnel aux petits soins et très efficace (un grand merci à Hafid pour cet accueil exceptionnel), un petit déjeuner copieux et délicieux, un court séjour parfait ! Rien dans l'hébergement lui même. El Jadida, mise à part sa cité portugaise, n'est pas la plus belle des villes marocaines.
- Fatimazahra (10/5): I will comeback for long stay this time - Everything was magical
Personnel so kind
Room was so nice and very well designed
Food was excellent Nothing.
- Christian (10/5): Exceptional - Everything excellent
- Andrea (10/5): Merveilleux ! - Extraordinaire ! Lieu magique, service impeccable et attentionné, tout en discrétion. Chambre magnifique, jardin superbe où prendre le petit-déjeuner, une oasis de paix. Et quel plaisir d'avoir un café avec la Bialetti!! Petit détail à améliorer : les produits de douche/bain. Nous recommandons cent fois cet hôtel !
- Terence (10/5): Exceptional - Everything Nothing
- Malinda (10/5): Beautiful oasis near Portuguese Fort - Beautiful oasis, right in the heart of El Jadida near the Portuguese Fort. Lovely host, kind and friendly. Delicious breakfasts in the morning in the garden. The mattress is a bit hard, but the room and facilities well and truly made up for it.
- Hussam (10/5): Exceptional - Inside and everything is well organised. The parking spot.

- Sandra (10/5): An oasis in the middle of town. Absolutely stunning Riad - Breakfast was superb & served in a fine dining environment with fireplace. The interiors are stunning & have been featured in magazines.
- Marco (8/5): Very good - Garden, staff, amenities Expensive for the location
- Daniel (10/5): Riad Dar El Malaika was beautiful, friendly, and comfortable. A visual marvel. - Wonderful staff and food. All perfect.
- Eva (10/5): Felt like a king and queen in this beautiful palace, with the nicest staff ever! - It was just perfect! The garden, the room, which was a beautiful and enormous place, the most friendly staff. Special thanks to the most kindest Mohammed! Nothing negative to say…
- George (10/5): - This riad is a gem. Our room was huge, clean and very comfortable. The staff is extremely friendly, even bringing us a wonderful bottle of wine with nuts and chips on our first of two nights.
It was all very comfortable and I would recommend this riad.
- Manuel (10/5): - Incredible riad, absolutely unimaginable from the outside and surroundings. We truly couldn’t believe our eyes after entering the amazing and elegant property. Luxurious room with so many nide details. The staff is extremely attentive. Superb breakfast at the beautiful garden, by the pond.
- JASON (10/5): - So incredibly beautiful
- Walter (10/5): Exceptional - Absolutely beautiful! Perfect for a romantic getaway
- Dagmar (10/5): Lived like a royal! - Amazing rooms, building, garden, pond, breakfast! The staff, food, warm welcome, decor, lavish furniture and well kept garden
- Stéphane (10/5): Amazing experience in a wonderful, magical place. - Amazing experience in a wonderful, magical place.
- Sumeet (10/5): - Hafid and the team looked after us from the day we arrived, right up until the final day we had to rush to a taxi to catch a connecting train to Marrakech. We were provided an excellent taxi service arranged by the Riad from Marrakech. The riad and our room were even more immaculate than the pictures, an absolute dream. Can’t wait to come back and stay even longer than a week on the future.
- Aleksandr (10/5): Exceptional - Almost everything. Great place with a unique palace like experience. The beds are too small. Not very comfortable for the price point.
- Lian (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rhimou (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amy (9/5): Superb - Absolutely beautiful and definitely five star treatment from the staff. We were given lots of complimentary tea. The terrace was beautiful to sit on. Breakfast was great, with a big selection of things. Our room was beautiful. Our AC didn't work in our room. The staff were sometimes hard to find and get their attention. On the day we left, breakfast wasn't set up when it was advertised and we didn't have time to eat it.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Felt like royalty in this small palace! - Incredible experience!! The host was amazing and so friendly! It was an absolute treat to stay in this small palace and was perfect for our family to spend time together in the very comfortable and luxurious suites. We loved the breakfast all together on the patio. Such a memorable and special stay!
- Cecile (8/5): Very good -
- Stephanie (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic breakfast and excellent coffee. The best Riad we have stayed in.
- Rafiq (10/5): Superb - Interiors and service Everything
- Heejin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Madhavi (10/5): Spacious, beautiful rooms and great place to stay - The riad is beautiful and the rooms are very spacious and comfortable. Everyone is very helpful and attend to details. It’s walking distance to the Portuguese quarter and the beach. The breakfast was really tasty!
- Andrew (10/5): Unique and opulent riad in the heart of El Jadida - Cozy opulence! A former governor’s palace transformed into a boutique hotel. The garden is lovely and peaceful, making it hard to believe you’re in the middle of the city. Hafid and the rest of the staff went above and beyond to make our group feel welcome. Some might find the Arabesque style a little much, though furnishings are comfortable and of high quality.
- Dikra (8/5): Perfect on the inside. - The room was clean and warm at out arrival. The Riad was hidden and we could not find it at first. After asking around the people led us to the door. We had to park far from the hotel. It was only possible to drop our suitcases at the door and had to park somewhere else. The area was dirty and smelly. We had to wait long before someone opened the door. After this first hikup, the service was good.
- Easton (10/5): - A stunning hidden gem of a traditional riad, a former governors house with with only 5 or 6 exsquisite rooms each depicting breathtaking tiling, archways, seating
areas and alcoves. The receiving great room and gardens are stunning. The hostess greeting and breakfast setting and presentation was of royal standards. The birds, herons and fish of the central gardens offer a tranquil central garden experience few spas could match. They accomodated our very late check-in, and thank you "Rashid" for assistance for nearby parking and luggage assistence.
- Mohammad (10/5): Exceptional - Everything about this place was excellent. You get transported into a completely surreal oasis like environment. The staff was so warm and welcoming to. Special thanks to Rachid for making my stay so comfortable.
- S. (10/5): Exceptional - Breakfast in the beautiful garden was wonderful. We felt very well taken care of by everyone. Thanks
- Stephanie (10/5): Spectacular - The room was gorgeous! It was so spacious and opulent! So quiet. Gracious personable staff! Thank you Hafed!
- Qun (10/5): Exceptional -
- John (10/5): Very worth the hour train ride from Casablanca . El Jadida is not a tourist trap. - It is a beautiful Riad in the wonderful city of El Jadida. What a welcome change from the madness of Marrakesh. The staff were exemplary. The room was very romantic. The breakfast was the best one we had in Morocco. This place made me want to return . I can’t think of anything. It was a truly magical place.
- Kristof (10/5): Can´t miss this place when visiting El Jadida! - Amazing palace! Staff is top notch. Breakfast divine next to a lit fireplace. Room of the governor was gorgeous
- Paweena (10/5): Exceptional - Love everything about this place. So beautiful. The service was attentive and impeccable. Simply the best place to stay in El Jadida.
- Alan (10/5): A memorable stay, I’ll be back with my wife. - Everything and everyone: there is absolutely nothing left to chance, everything is provided is thoughtful and high class. The staff were the best highlight of my stay. The toiletries could be better, but for me I brought my own.
- Silvana (10/5): Living the dream! Best riad/hotel we every experienced. Book it, you will NOT regret it. We are still dreming about - I am speechless about the beauty of this riad. The royal suite is just a dream. I am still blown away. The staff made us feel like king and queen. We HIGHLY recommend this riad!! We definitely will come back again. Thank you for everything. Just one little comment: would be nice to have hair conditioner :) but that’s the only little thing we could find to improve their quality
- Kara (8/5): I loved everything about this place - Gorgeous place. I would spend time just there and not go anywhere I loved everything about this place
- Lisa (10/5): Beautiful restful experience in a lovely Riad - Beautifully restored with attention to details. Nothing
- Senja (10/5): A true gem for those seeking an authentic luxurious escape. Highly recommended. - Our stay at the Riad was enchanting. Every detail, from the garden to the rooms, showcased exquisite artistry. The breakfast was a delightful symphony of flavors, and the staff’s service was attentive and amazing. Staying here we felt like royals, surrounded by top-notch materials and impeccable attention to detail.
