What people say

I had a great time at Riad d'Or. It was exactly the type of accommodation I was looking for: one representing the legendary Moroccan hospitality. This means for me good food, laid-back atmosphere, water presence, beautiful Arab decoration, smiling ladies and attentive gentlemen. "I come back here again any time soon", was my thought while I was there. The two ladies there (I think the owner Amina and one employee) were extremely kind with me. They would go up from the reception till the roof .
all reviews » Tthe “Superior Quadruple Room” (the Pacha room if you are looking at the riad’s website) easily accommodated two married couples (one double bed and two twin beds that the staff had pushed together) in somewhat separated/private areas. The room also had a comfortable couch on which a short person or child could sleep. The common areas of this riad are among the most intricately, ornately, and opulently decorated (in a good way) of any in which I have stayed. Lots of hot water. Staff was friendl. I appreciated the staff's helpfulness -- from the reception ladies who assisted with our pre-seat flight bookings to buying our train tickets to Rabat and helped with laundry! Then a special thank you to the chef who went to the trouble of taking us to the atm and the cyber cafe on her way home and also the owner who so kindly took us to the station personally and helped us with our luggage! Many thanks indeed for your kind assistance! The food was also excellent. Huge rooms in a stunning building split over multiple levels and filled with local handicrafts, winding stone staircases, intricate plaster work and surprising nooks. One of the best breakfasts we had in Morocco with superb service from the lady (manager?) who also provides front of house service in the related restaurant. Located right in the heart of the medina in a quiet spot. Extremely good value for money. Decoration&atmosphere - Elegantly decorated, with art work in typical Moroccon style, a maze inside but every corridor was as beautiful as the next Personnel - Very helpful and friendly Food - Dinner at the riad was very good and good value for money (120 dirham for 3 courses). Absolutely everything...you cant fault this place.All from reception/restaurant staff to desigh of rooms and location is amazing...Having stayed in excellent Riads too in Fez, Marrakech, Casablanca, y Tanger...We were seriously impressed by this one.A winner in all ways. What a beautiful place! Full of antiquities and Moroccan character. We felt like royalty with the whole of the downstairs courtyard as our sitting room. Staff were delightful and very helpful. Fabulous hamman!. It was like staying over night at the museum. Truly a heritage hotel with modern equipment. Beautifully furnished but no artificial elements unnecessarily added. Friendly and helpful staff. Historical building. Well preserved Riad. Excellent staff who were proud of their Riad and deservedly so. Great cook who was able to talk about her craft and her role at the Riad. The staff was ABSOLUTELY brilliant. What an astonishing customer service. Rooms are clean and of a good size. Beds are super comfy. Excellent value for money, indeed. Close to all main tourist sites in Meknes. Friendly staff, who welcome you with tea in the lovely courtyard and provides the most important tourist info. The riad is well-placed in the medina and is a pleasant-enough place to stay. The staff, who spoke English, were friendly and helpful. Superb decor and atmosphere. Excellent restaurant. Location right in the old medina. Beautiful tile work and quiet. Very nicely restored. Receptionist is a sweet heart. Good location. A very friendly, helpful and English speaking staff. It is beautifully decorated. Location was good. the riad is conviniently located. easy to find. As I said, everything went perfect at the Riad d'Or till the very last moment when I paid (only in cash) and there was a weird reaction over the due money change. Now it's all forgotten. Room was fine but the common areas of this riad are significantly more beautiful. The shower did not have a curtain, so keeping the rest of the bathroom dry required care. We had an odd experience at the restaurant and probably would not return for dinner. There could have been a bottle of water in the bedroom with glasses. As seems to be the case with most accommodation in Morocco, wifi is only available in a (smoky) common area and not available within the rooms. Cover and pillowcase were not very fresh Not easy to find as the riad is not signposted on the main road (especially when coming by car). NOTHING...at all. Only limited wifi in main area. Some (not all) of staff at breakfast floor looked very unhappy at work. We enjoyed everything. Narrow and steep stairs make it difficult to move your luggage. Parking is not nearby. Food was a bit of a problem. We would have liked to eat in the restaurant but the chef was unavailable so the menu was ridiculously limited. Also, the hotel were unable to provide us with a bottle of mineral water. Both exit doors locked before breakfast and no staff around. We could not get out of the hotel - fire hazard. Beware if you need to catch an early train or bus. Needs more water pressure and the wifi has a very small area where it works. It was a litlle bit cold during november in the shared spaces... It was like a corn maze inside, numerous stairs up/down, left/right and with luggage dragging behind. Also, don't arrive there at night for the dim light inside. It felt very impersonal. The front staff were not well trained to serve the customers with good advice. No maps availeble. The restaurant had a very limited maroccan menu. The room had a strange smell. In the toilet the shower was broken and none of the fittings worked. The water was either scalding hot or freezing cold and hence you could tale a shower.whiele there were several people at the reception all the time, none of them what needed to be done.
