Dar Bonita

I fell in love with this Riad, such a beautiful place to stay in the heart of Medina, a few steps away from the souks. The attention from Hamou and Abdel was perfect, they always made sure the experience was going well. Will def come back!

Magical riad in the heart of the old medina with beautiful rooms and attentive staff. Look no further. Great price, spotless rooms, comfortable beds, new air conditioning, nice breakfast and good coffee. Beautifully refurbished riad keeping the historic charm with modern comfort. Be mindful that like many charming riads, it is a bit deep inside the Medina, about a 10 to 15 min walk on cobblestone alleys from the place where the taxi can drop you. This is not a negative pount it is just the architectural reality of staying in an authentic historic riad inside an ancient city. At arrival, the staff kindly meets you to assist on the way in.

Usually we don't rate 10 any structure, but, in this case, the staff really convinced us to give a 10! The structure is cute, located in the middle of the medina, at the end of a closed street, from outside you can't imagine what you would have found inside, a peaceful riad, clean and tidy, with a small refreshing swimming pool, and a nice terrace. Breakfast is generous, sweet and savory, cooked by two nice ladies. As said, the staff is the real plus, always available, day and night, with numerous suggestions and hints for us! We asked for changing the room, getting a new room as soon as possible, we asked for laundry and they supported us bringing themselves our stuff in the laundry, we left the riad before standard breakfast time for an excursion, and they prepared a box for us, to no lose the breakfast. The two guys and the two ladies made the difference in our experience, and they really deserved a 10!

Privacy is not the typical characteristic of a riad, and the rooms on the ground floor are not the best in the riad, especially in the morning, with people having breakfast in front of the room. Fortunately we were able to change room after the second night.

The riad arranged for transportation from the airport . A young man met our driver with a cart for our luggage and then brought us to Dar Bonita. This was important because I don't think we would have found the location on our own. We had just been in Marrakech the week before for five nights but in walking to Dar Bonita we walked through areas we hadn't seen before, that's how big and convoluted the passageways can be. We were excited to check out this new area. Our room was very inviting and well appointed. The facility was beautiful to look at, clean and welcoming. Even though the staff that greeted us did not speak English she was welcoming and able to show us to our room. The breakfast was tasty and filling. I especially appreciated the small thermos with coffee and one with warm milk. (I'm not a huge tea drinker.) We were especially appreciative of the assistance we received at 5:15am to bring our bags out to the square where the prearranged taxi came to pick us up for the airport. We had a wonderful stay at Dar Bonita
