Berber Duchess Riad

The Berber Duchess Riad is a real gem! We got exactly what we wanted from our accommodation. A warm and friendly welcome and a riad run by local people who go the extra mile to ensure that their guests are treated in a personal and attentive way. Before arrival they offered to organise a taxi plus local guide to get us into the medina and through the mesmerising streets and alleyways; it was perfect to have this sorted so that our holiday started in a relaxing way. On arrival we were offered mint tea and given time to just chill in the beautiful central courtyard. Our room gave us everything that we needed. A very comfortable bed, spacious bathroom and internet access. Air-conditioning during this exceptionally hot summer was also very much appreciated. The beautiful plunge pool in the central courtyard was just what I needed after a hot day and we used it every day. The breakfasts were freshly made and varied; we both really looked forward to these every morning. One evening we also had an evening meal which we ate on the rooftop. Not only was the food absolutely perfect but the setting was atmospheric and absolutely ideal. I cannot praise Achraf, Bouchra, Jamila and Zuhair enough; they are all a real credit to owner Nicky.

Everything was absolitely spot-on for us and our needs.

super friendly, helpful staff. Fantastic breakfast.

My room was a bit dusty

Beautiful Riad located close to the heart of the action. It’s set back from main streets so also feels really peaceful. The staff were incredibly friendly and super helpful. They sorted airport transfers for us, which made travel from the airport to the Riad seamless. They also booked us onto a cooking class, which was the highlight of our trip. The breakfasts were delicious, filling and presented beautifully. The room was very comfortable with a massive bath and walk in shower, all with beautiful original mosaic tiles. It also had a hairdryer which is always useful. Ashraf was an incredible host, thank you!
