Staying at this Riad was an amazing experience from start to finish. The host is incredibly kind and attentive, always making sure everything goes smoothly. The Riad consists of several houses, and we stayed in the Zineb, which was fantastic. One of the highlights was the included breakfast—a complete buffet that really made a difference. They also offer traditional hammams at very reasonable prices, which is a nice addition. The location is central, the team is super thoughtful, and the rooms are very comfortable. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting Marrakech.

Tranquil perfection
My wife and I booked a superior room in Riad Karmela through hotels.com. There are a number of riads, all next to each other, under the same ownership and where guests can move freely between them all. We received an upgrade to stay in room Bahia in Riad Petit Karmela. It was very serene and calm on the ground floor overlooking a beautiful sitting area which was heated during the evening. It transpires that, if you book directly with the riad, you receive a room upgrade and a one way free transfer from the airport. We reserved and benefited from the transfer and were met at the airport. The riad was ideal. Lovely room and facilities (including room safe) good hot shower, comfortable bed and plenty of space. One litre of free bottled water daily. Breakfasts were more than ample and served as continental style and we had 2 evening meals (pre-reseved). Cocktails were superb and both beer and wine were available at table. Joel (owner) has a superb team of staff and we were looked after well by Muhammed, Amine, Said & Fatima and others whose names are in my dimming recollection. Highly recommended and would be our choice of accommodation again. Thankyou.

I got in late and was greeted by the hotel staff at my taxi. I was upgraded to the Hassan suite and was very pleased with the accommodations and the hotel environment and staff. I enjoyed the personal guide Aziz who showed me a memorable experience. The rooftop breakfast was excellent. When I return I will be staying there. Thank You staff for your hospitality.

What an Amazing Riad with Amazing Staff. We stayed here for 7 nights and all the staff were very friendly, genuine and helpful. Airport transfers were arranged through Riad Karmela and we could not believe the effort of both of our drivers...on arrival he had waited over 2 hours for us! The second driver to the airport manouvered through almost impossible alleyways for us. Thank You to you both. The rooms were so spacious and clean. Breakfast was a delight each day and the staff were always attentive. The relaxation areas including the terrace were decorated to traditional standards, with beautiful furniture, paintings, photographs and Moroccan artefacts. The restaurant was almost full each night we stayed and highly recommended. The guitarist was also a pleasure to listen to on evenings. Thank You to all at Riad Karmela!
