Riad Haraka

We stayed for 3 nights in Riad Haraka and hands down the best thing about the place is Driss, the manager. He is extremely friendly, always trying to help and really making the difference in this place. Thanks Driss for making our stay a great experience!

Be aware that the riad is at the edge of the medina about 5-10 minutes walk to the entrance of the souk, so not super central. But if you like walking this is not really a problem.

The inside ambience

Staff was discerning. Not all guest seem to be treated equally

The staff really made this stay enjoyable, they went above and beyond making sure I had what I needed, went where I wanted to go (safely), and even let me borrow a plug adaptor since I forgot mine. Customer service is a 11/10, really. Also, I slept great each night and the terrace is lovely to sit and enjoy the evenings, which were quiet.

The location was tucked away and difficult to get to, taxis did not know where to take me and had to call every time to get me close enough. Being a lone woman traveler it was uncomfortable and difficult to venture out alone. For a couple, group, man, or someone with experience, speaks Arabic or French, and/or has cell data, this may not be an issue. Also, other Riad’s I have stayed in you go in the door, go around a corner and hall, and end in the beautiful courtyard with a fountain and trees, they have at least 7 rooms, typically none on the first floor. This Riad is a mix of a home and European influenced hotel, you can see the courtyard from the front door and it has 6 rooms total; so not authentic feeling if you are looking for that.
