Guest reviews for Riad Baba
"Great quality-price ratio. Very quiet at night. Friendly staff."
"Nothing bad"
"Fantastic location, price, and great breakfast! A fantastic value. The room was very spacious. They even served tea as we were leaving. Fantastic hosts. Hicham provided a map of the Medina as well, and helped arrange a trip to the Blue City."
"Shower stall was small but not a problem. Water was nice and hot!"
"It was very nice and excellant location. Staff was very good and excellent location. The room was very nice and roomy. Bathroom was a little small and wish the furniture was a little more comfortable. However, great valye for the money and excellent location, safe. It is easy to get lost in the Madina so make sure that you follow the same route from the fountain."
"Just the bathroom could be a little more updated. Also wish there was a little better chest of drawers or something"
"The room was extremely comfortable, cozy, spacious, and clean. Even though it was located near the common area, it was surprisingly quiet. The staff were very attentive and welcoming throughout our stay. Breakfast was amazing, with a variety of well-prepared options. We also really appreciated the option to have dinner at the riad—it was both convenient and delicious. The laundry service was fairly priced. Out of all the riads we stayed in during our trip, this one was definitely the best."
"While the location was good—relatively close to one of the medina gates—the 20-minute walk made it a bit impractical to go back and forth multiple times a day. The bathroom was small and, if we weren’t careful, water would leak out of the shower area."
"The staff were so kind. As soon as i arrived they helped with everything, especially a map that was my lifeline to the maze like old city."
"Aucun."
"My friend and I had an amazing stay here. The staff were beyond kind and made sure we were accommodated 24/7. We had to wake up extra early for a desert tour and they had made a packed breakfast for us and walked us and waited for us to be picked up by our tour. Not to mention the Riad itself it’s very gorgeous and our room was perfect. I couldn’t recommend this place more."
"Aucun."
"We spent two nights at this Riad and it was our favorite place we stayed in Morocco. The hosts were extremely nice. We didn’t get in from the airport till 2 AM and he waited up for us and showed us our room. The breakfast was delicious. The host recommended a walking tour and we loved it. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and took us all through the Medina. If we come back to Morocco, we would 100% stay at this place again."
"Aucun."
"Hisham is super helpful. He sat us down and explained how to navigate the Medina. On the last day when we had to check out at 7am, he made sure he sent us off with packed breakfast."
"The bathroom on the ground smells"
"The rooms were spacious, the beds were comfortable and the shower was hot. The staff were really lovely and helpful and even offered to lend us some money when we were unable to find a working ATM. The breakfast was large and very nice. We absolutely LOVED the cats Sultan and Sultana, the cutest cats we found in Morocco (which is saying something) It took approximately 15 mins to walk to the blue gate from here. Though we did take a few wrong turns sometimes!"
"Not much at all, though it was noisy one night as guests were having the meal downstairs. Just the nature of riads though really. We didn't have the food there as 2 of us weren't well but we heard that it was really good"
"Very spacious room. The staff were so friendly and accomodating. They always made sure we were getting a fair price for things when we told them we were going shopping for things. They called our guide to make sure he was going when he was running late. Breakfast was delicious each morning. Great location as well."
"Loud at night."

Guest reviews
"This stay in the Ziz valley felt extremely authentic and was a perfect way to end our time in this area of Morocco. Great location to stay for flights in and out of Errichidia. Hami and his family were excellent hosts and we loved our time talking, having tea, and enjoying the best tangine we had in Morocco!"

"I needed a place to stay on my way through and this fit the bill. Happy to have stayed there. The staff was especially helpful."
Paul Hotel Palace Zaida
"Quiet location, garbage to store the bicycles. Shared bathroom was clean and close to the room, which had its own sink. Good hot shower. Friendly owners."
Casey Hotel Imilchil
"We had a lovely stay with my wife and our two kids. The place is peaceful and perfect for relaxing as a family. The hosts were very welcoming and the breakfast was delicious – fresh, generous, and the best way to start the day with that amazing view and the old village. Highly recommended!"
Samer Le Gite du Barrage
"I had a wonderful experience in the desert. I stayed in a bivouac room, which was beautiful and comfortable in the middle of nature. Everything was clean, well organized, and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. Mr. Mubarak and his team were amazing—very kind, welcoming, and hospitable. They really made sure we had a great stay."

"We really enjoyed our stay at “Kasbah du Bout”. The host was very friendly and made sure our needs were met. The Kasbah was very clean and well kept. We experienced a relaxing atmosphere and stay. We recommend staying here when visiting Zagora. Fred K. United States."
"Amazing camp accessible by car. We only had front-wheel drive Dacia, so it was a bit difficult to get there. If you go, lease a 4x4 for sure. We only wanted a day trip on camels, so we arrived by car. There are many camps that you can visit on a multi-day trip on camels deeper in the desert, however, if you only want a day trip on camels and have car, this is a must-visit. Personnel superb, food superb Bathroom facilities better than most hotels, in the tent (available outside of tent as well - they have public bathrooms) They booked a day trip on camels. We wanted to try this limited version before going on a multiple day trip on camels. I suggest telling them that you don't want to spend 4h on the lunch break. It's too long. 2h of break is enough. You go about 2h on camels' backs and then back after lunch. This camp was top 2 experiences we had in morocco. If you want larger and more iconic sand dunes, visit Merzouga. The dunes here are small, yet beautiful"
