This was my second stay at Riad El Ma, and the staff were as friendly and welcoming as before.

Naomi United Kingdom

Best riad we stayed in Morocco. Hosts welcomed us with tea in a beautiful and typical place with flowers and sun, central but quiet at the same time. It overcame our expectations as regards costs and services: the room was really nice and with everyday cleaning, not missing anything. Breakfast excellent and abundant. The terrace is special, with a cold swimming pool to fresh and deckchairs to rest. The atmosphere is harmonious and really respectful of guests. We also used the washing machine service. Highly recommended in Meknes !

Virginia Italy

Wonderful staff, nice environment, I would repeat for sure

Gallama Spain

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again!

Adrienne Canada

The women who run the Riad are really helpful and welcoming. The room was comfortable and the place was beautiful and well located. We went by car and you can park quite near the Riad. Dinner and breakfast were great.

Cristina Spain

Natalia Spain

Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. The food was good especially the evening meals.

Ray United Kingdom

Wonderful riad and good location in the medina. The roof terrace was beautiful and perfect to relax for a bit. Staff is very friendly and dinner in the riad was very tasty.

Rose-marijn Netherlands

They staff is so lovely and friendly! We really felt us welcomed and just like at home. The kids loved the beautiful cat. We also had a very good dinner there. The riad is beautiful, our room was big and the bed was comfy.

Ildiko Hungary

We really enjoyed to stay there. The hospitality was perfect. We got some mint tea at the beginning. The atmosphere was very nice and relaxing. Especially the terrace and the courtyard. The breakfast was ok. Some fruits or eggs would be nice

Host review score
The imperial city of Meknes is the perfect gateway to explore an authentic Morocco. The Riad el Ma guest house is located in the heart of the historic city center, a few steps away from the town’s most famous monuments such as the beautiful Bab Mansour gate and the Bouinania Medersa. In the delicious atmosphere created by running water and foutains, you can relax in a fully renovated “Riad”, a traditional moroccan mansion built around an open courtyard.
