This was a very quaint guest house that was comfortable and just right. A great breakfast. The kitchen was immaculate. Ventrally located in the old town - a great place to spend a few days.

Lovely property and very well restored and decorated, very peaceful and quiet. All that was in vain for me and the room I stayed in (pearl) however as the light from outside shone through the moucharabieh, and badly affected my sleep on all five night. See photo. Also this doesn't have a bath, it's a shower now so the web photos need updating. If you specifically want a tub you may be disappointed. They don't clean the rooms unless you specifically request it to be done , saying some people don't like cleaners being in the room (surely anybody would saybat check in if that was the case ?) The breakfast policy is very odd. You have to state a breakfast time at the beginning of the stay, and that will be your breakfast time for the duration, you cannot deviate from it If you are one, five,byen, however many minutes late it will still go on the table at that time for the local birds and flies to feadt on Don't get it - three rooms and it only takes five minutes to warms some baked goods and put them on a plate. Small things, no welcome drink at check in, only one bath towel provided, water not replenished. Once they have got on top.of the basics here a small fridge in the room would be massively beneficial and sun loungers on the top roof would be a huge selling point. Verdict -,3 star property at a four star prices. Has the potential for a great spot with some improvements

This riad is really beautiful and the service we received from the moment we arrived was great! It is very well located, within walking distance to many of the attractions in Rabat. Highly recommended!

Great Place to stay! Helpful and very friendly staff. A nice small swimming pool to cool down and a quite nice place. The room was clean and the bathroom was nice. Nice Terrace and nice breakfast. Would definitely recommend and will be staying there next time. Recommend going inside to the hotel by going from the water side of the Medina

The property was just as beautiful as the pictures show. The only issue was getting there. You need internet access to a good GPS and no taxi can get you to the door. You will need to walk for about 10 min with your luggage and GPS to find it. But it is worth the walk, and very peaceful. Although it is very quiet it was not that private as our room was right next to the common area. Overall I would recommend this place. There were many tourist attractions within walking distance. I also recommend walking down to the beach and oceanside.

This was our first stay in Morocco. Room was simply decorated. The tub in the middle of the room was interesting. Hard for me to wash my long hair but soaking in it after walking miles each day was heaven. The level of the bathroom mirror was too low, but likely limited because of room architecture. The AC unit stopped working in the middle of the night, so a few warm hours. Despite this hiccups, it was a nice refuge from the bustling medina and Tarik was sweet and helpful.

Endroit sympa, bien situé dans la médina. Responsable du Riad très accueillante et homme de maison super dispo ! Seul chose préférer prendre les taxis bleu plutôt que le taxi conseillé par le riad pour les déplacements dans la ville cela vous coûtera bien moins cher.

This riad was a dream. Pretty quaint and tucked in the middle of the medina. Google maps did not direct us infront of the riad, but its not that hard to find if u pay attention and zoom in the map. Its very relaxing to stay in this riad and we were in the camel room with. O ac in the middle of June but had a fan in it, and it was not hot. The host asked us if we ‘d prefer a room w ac, which were upstairs but we wanted the room closer to the pool. It was excellent.

Un emplacement tranquille au coeur de la Medina de Rabat, pas très loin du tram et des artères commerçantes. Le Dar Zen est un lieu de séjour très agréable. Service impeccable de Tarik.
