We had a great stay at Riad Karmela and we were impressed how warm and helpful the staff are. Mohamed and Amine were especially helpful to us with arranging transportation and making sure we get to our destinations on time and safely. The breakfast was amazing and there were lots of options with fresh fruits and vegetables. Our room was spacious and clean. We highly recommend this hotel and good location in the medina.

Charlotte

Liked: Staff & service
Breakfast was great and so was the staff. But the place bears signs of decay, it needs an renovation. It looks more beautiful at the pictures than in real life especially the roof top was a bit disappointing - not enough sun beds and the jacuzzi was closed. The small pool in the courtyard was mostly for decoration. Carpets in the courtyard could use a cleaning. The riad has a great location and the staff is very helpfull and polite.

Riad Karmela was an excellent choice for our Marrakech stay. Right in the centre of the medina so an easy walk to all the main souks and sights. Our room was clean, breakfast was tasty and all the staff were super helpful - would stay here again if we are ever back in Marrakech.

Excellent customer service and lovely family friendly rooms! We stayed as a family or five and had enough space in the family room to move around. The only downside was the poor ventilation in the rooms however I appreciate that this is a very old building. Regardless, this day exceeded my expectations and I will definitely stay again.

Initially, I was hesitant about our decision to stay at the Riad instead of our usual chain hotel. However, as soon as we stepped into the hotel, we felt like we had found our own home. The staff, from the housekeeper to the management, were incredibly friendly and treated us like family. We thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our stay. The room and bathroom were smaller than we had anticipated, but we didn’t mind. The location was very convenient, right next to the shops. We were a bit sad to leave, as we had truly enjoyed our stay. The environment and atmosphere were lively and welcoming. We want to express our gratitude to Said, Amin, Hakim, and Oman. We wish we could remember everyone’s name, but we want to thank them all for taking care of us. We definitely plan to return and recommend the Riad to our family and friends. We had an absolute blast and will never forget our stay!
