Riad Karmela

We stayed in one of their sister properties, Zineb or Petit Karmela. The room was very comfortable and located in the heart of medina. The property itself was very serene and peaceful. We enjoyed walking around and sitting outside. Our stay was particularly improved by very thoughtful Aziz who went above and beyond for the smallest of asks.

This place was lovely once you entered the buildings, with multiple interior patios with gurgling pools and comfortable furniture. The whole atmosphere invited us to relax and feel welcome. The staff was soooo nice, completely committed to the guests’ satisfaction. The breakfast and other meals were excellent, served at their rooftop terrace. The only drawback was its location: it was difficult to find even for the gps- however, the riad staff was more than willing to pick us up from the place where the taxi dropped us off. Once we got fully oriented to the area we were able to get to the souks and many of the tourist attractions.

We recently stayed at Riad Karmela and had a fantastic experience. Highly recommend this gorgeous authentic Riad. Aziz and Mohammed need special mention as they went above and beyond to make our stay special. They make you feel very welcome and part of the family. No ask is too much. Aziz even ran around the souk to find someone to repair my husband's glasses after he had changed to go home. Glasses came back like new. Can't wait to go back.

My stay at Riad Karmela was wonderful and memorable, the rooms were cosy, air-conditioned and traditional. Room service was dedicated and friendly, breakfast was sumptuous. Location while been very central within the Medina with attractions and landmarks easily accessible it does come with busy pedestrian and motorbikes traffic (however I slept well without noise been an issue). No regrets😊👍🏾

A well-deserved oasis of peace and coolness in the chaos and madness of the Medina in Marrakesh. I stayed for 4 days in Marrakesh with my family and had a wonderful time at Riad Karmela. The inner courtyards are beautiful, the rooftop terraces as well, and the small pools and jacuzzi really add to the atmosphere. The rooms are tastefully decorated, with great attention to detail and in keeping with the local style — each one with a different color theme. A few small imperfections are part of the charm of the place. The staff were kind and welcoming. Breakfast was varied and plentiful. This was by far the best accommodation we had in Morocco — the only one that truly exceeded our expectations during our trip, in a country where hotel standards are far below what we Europeans are used to. If we ever come back to Marrakesh, we’ll definitely return to Karmela Palace. Highly recommended!
