A riad is undoubtedly the best place to stay in Morocco. The Maison des Epices was lovely, and Carole and Ruldoph, the owners, went out of their way to be helpful and accommodating. Like most riads, the Maison des Epices looks unpretentious from the outside, but opens up once you have entered. The courtyard and dining area are artistically designed... More

This riad is simply wonderful, we spent 5 nights there and loved every minute. The place has been completely gutted and restored over several years by local craftsmen under the watchful eye of friendly French owners Rudolphe and Carole, who live there and run the place. Each comfortable room is large with a different Moroccan theme, beautifully decorated, and amazing... More

The title says it all! This hotel is a pearl in the middle of a small busy village. We've had a great time!

We were only here one night, but that was enough to fall in love with this place. The hosts were very friendly - even little Josephine, the puppy, despite stealing our socks!! The rooms were huge with new TVs, great bathroom ensuites, and a lovely courtyard for dining. Carole and Rodolphe prepared a delicious feast for us, which was different... More

This riad is a lovely place to stay. the rooms are not too big, but you will feel so at home you only want to sleep there anyway. Carole and Rudolph will make you feel very at home, and when they cant win your heart, Josephine (the puppy) will surely can! The diner they prepared for us was excellent, i... More

La maison des epices is a great example of why I love staying at Riads while in Morocco. Situated in the interesting old part of town and close to the old Portuguese City and the each, la maison des epices is a lovely, peaceful place. Hosts Carole and Rudolpe are charming (and their little pup Josefine) - we were originally... More

This was our first night in Morocco and we were so impressed with the quality of this place. Recently renovated, this Riad is truly gorgeous (ask to see the 'before' photos). It's in a good location, only 5 minutes walking distance to the medina and ocean. Carol and Rudolpho were friendly and accommodating. We would highly recommend trying the Moroccan... More

Just reformed aand very clean. Rodolphe and Carol are the very nice French couple that runs it. The price is fare for what you get. We pay little got the little room, but it´s really worthy, and El Jadida and specialy the pourt and the neighbourg city Azemmour, definitely need a visit. Highly recomended

This maison d'hotes is a traditional Moroccan riad that has been completely and tastefully renovated by the French couple who run it. It is in the medina just an easy 5 minute walk from the beach, the old Portugese city and the small souk area. The small number of rooms mean that the owners are able to offer their guests... More
