This Riad was a fantastic place to escape from the busy maze of the medina. There were many great small spaces to sit and relax with a drink, including a very nice terrace area. The staff were generally very helpful in organising tours and transport. My wife and I did feel extremely uncomfortable walking back to this Riad after dark... More

I travel quite often, usually preferring to stay in known brand hotels, so this was a break from the familiar so to speak, as I wanted to experience something traditional. I was not dissapointed at all! This Riad is a beautiful, charming Oasis slap bang in the middle of all the hustle and bussle of Marrakech and yet so peacefully... More

As soon as you walk through the front door, Riad Karmela makes you feel relaxed in the middle of a crazy city! We had a very friendly and helpful welcome where the member of staff told us about how to get to different places in the Medina so we wouldn't get lost. In the main courtyard there are birds and...

A good value. Staff are kind of luke warm but I think that reflects the size of the place. They're quite busy but helpful. We arranged a day trip which was easy to arrange through the front staff. Loved the little turtles in the courtyard! More

We spent 3 nights at riad karmela Marrakech in December and had an absolutely brilliant time. We loved Marrakech and the Karmela made the holiday for us. The entire team are incredibly friendly and helpful and the riad itself is beautiful. Amazing location right in the Medina and the perfect peaceful retreat. More

Riad Karmela is a surprising heaven in the hustle and bustle of the Marakech medina. a little hard to find on your own, but once there, proves to be a great location for market excursions and a perfect get-away. The staff is friendly and always ready to answer any need. Dinner was very nice and tasty. Service is impeccable. More

Excellent holiday!!! The service and food was superb, very friendly staff. Will definitely be back!!! Joel (the owner) was very helpful and provided great info on the area. More

My husband and I booked a spontaneous trip to Marrakech for 5 nights. Upon recommendation from family and not forgetting to mention the bargain rate we found, we booked Riad Karmela. As mentioned by other guests who have stayed here, the riad is a wonderful place to stay. Joel (the owner) is very accommodating, he doesn't push you to book... More

We met the Riad Karmela driver at the airport and were driven through the Medina and down some long, narrow streets which were very busy and yes the driving in Marrakesh is hectic, no rules on the road. It is a fair distance from the airport and no you will not find this Riad on your own so the best... More
