We were three women (three generations) staying at Riad Karmela. Overall, it was one step above the other riads we saw. The Riad is very calm, cozy and charming. The service is impeccable and very friendly. They work with a network of very competent and trustworthy guides and drivers, who can provide a great experience whatever you want to do. The food at Riad Karmela was the best we had during the whole trip, with carefully selected and freshly cooked ingredients (compared with the precooked and reheated food in many other places).
Special thanks to Nadia for a fantastic stay!

We stayed in this Riyad last week with 4 women. It was a very beautiful experience, better this really traditional and beautiful than we could imagine!! The Riyad is situated in a very small street in the middle of the Medina near all the important places. The owner is very nice and the employees are wonderful!! Enjoyed a bath in the Hammam as well. The room was very good, clean and quiet. Worth staying when u r in Marrakesh!

This is the second time I have stayed at Riad Karmela. The first time was a romantic getaway in January. This time with 8 business colleagues escaping from London for a weekend of pampering and bonding. Right from the start being collected from the airport and guided down the narrow twisty streets. Being welcomed with a beaming smile and a hot steaming mint tea.
Nadia and the team made us most welcome we also took over the Riad opposite El Nour and stayed up late into the night talking.
The home cooked food is excellent and great value for money the Riad beautiful.
I would thoughly recomend both Riad Karmela and Riad Elnour and if I had one criticism the rooms can be a little cold at night.
I will be back again next year!!

Everything about our stay at this riad was fantastic. They arranged for us to be met at the airport which was great and the taxi drivers they use are polite and helpful. The riad is STUNNING. Our room was fabulous and the bathroom was lovely. The courtyard and roof terrace are amazing and we really enjoyed coffee on the roof in the afternoons. The food is great both breakfast and evening meal. The best thing about the riad as far as we were concerned (aside from the fantastic decor!) was Nadia who works on reception. She is SO lovely and helped us with everything - where to go, what to do and not to do in the Medina. She could not have been more helpful. I am looking forward to coming back to Marrakesh and will definitely be staying at Riad Karmela. Why stay anywhere else??!!
