I have just come back from staying at Riad Marhaba....it is a fantastic location in the Medina and one of the best values. I have been travelling to Rabat every month and this was my first time staying here and will now be the place I stay on each of my visits. Cecile & Fred are the owners and are... More

We stayed in this amazing and 1001-nights riad with our children. My daughter felt like a princess staying in suite Bahia. The riad is perfectly clean. Shower, airco en internet worked very well and the breakfast was the best we'd had in Morocco! We would really love to stay here again!!! Special thanks to Sila. He made us feel very... More

We had a very comfortable stay at Riad Marhaba. We were in the Suite Chellah which had a quiet, cozy bedroom and spacious private lounge area with excellent WiFi reception. Breakfast on the terrace was excellent. The owners and staff were very friendly and gave us a personal map with restaurant recommendations. The room decor could use a bit of... More

While we did struggle to find Riad Marhaba (having not sought/received accurate directions prior to arrival - the Medina is a maze!), once we did we were glad of our decision to stay here during our time in Rabat. The owners and staff are very friendly, and the rooms have been tastefully restored. it is reasonably priced compared to other... More

We stayed for 4 nights at this Riad in April 2011 and enjoyed every bit of it. We had the Chellah suite, which is very comfortable. The bed was very good and everything was perfectly clean. The location of the riad inside the medina is really nice, the French owners are very hospitable and welcoming, they gave us a map... More

The riad is really really nice. It has been recently renewed with good taste and attention to details! The owners unfortunately dont speak perfect english, but no problem mixing with our limited french!! The riad is in excellent position, 15/20 minutes from the train station walking, in the center of the medina and close to main attractions! Unfortunately it was... More

Staff and owner speak limited English, so if you speak French it is easier to communicate. Our limited French was sufficient. Beds are comfy and breakfast is tasty, good location (15 min walk from train station), overall a pleasant stay. More

We stayed at Riad Marhaba for only one night right at the end of a two week trip through Morocco. Sadly, I arrived in Rabat very sick from our last destination and so was not able to enjoy the beauty of this place as much as I would have liked. The riad's interior is absolutely beautiful with amazingly intricate stone... More

I have stayed at Fred and Cecile's beautiful Riad twice and intend to stay there every time I visit Rabat, which is quite often. The Riad itself is a lovely example of Moroccan construction and decor and the rooms are very simple and comfortable. Breakfast on the terrace is relaxing and tasty - the best coffee I have had in...
