This riad had only been open about a month when I visited, but the hospitality was exceptional. The location is excellent—an easy walk to the medina, beach, restaurants, and festival venues while still being peaceful.

Salut Maroc Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"One of our favorite stays ever. Excellent location with the most beautiful views in the city. The view right out our hotel room Mogador was stunning. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The restaurant was great and there is a live gnawa band every night that was very fun, (it ends at 9:30) really can’t say enough about the quality of this hotel. I hope we can come back some day"
