As a frequent traveler I have stayed in many places from minus 5 star to 6 star, slept under the stars in The Sahara but Riad Arabesque was a complete surprise.

I rented the entire arid for three nights. We were 26 in the group and we had 15 rooms. There was only 1 room that was not as great as the others. All in all, my group had a wonderful stay. The tag could not have been more gracious. The food we have at dinner was stellar. The breakfast was... More

I can't remember the name of our rooms, but we we were 2 friends travelling together and each had a junior suite. We loved our 3 night stay earlier in April. It was quiet and our rooms were lovely. The staff were terrific and we liked the location. We did not try the fitness centre or spa (if there was... More

Our room is very spacious, with lovely Moroccan features. Very cosy. The window overlooking the yard. The first night when we arrived was quite late, so we decided to... More

We stayed here in the first week of October for 6 days. When you first walk in, it definitely has a WOW factor - very Moroccan accents everywhere. The room is superb as well - clean, spacious, warm and beautiful. We stayed in the Medina room. The staff are fairly friendly albeit communication was limited as all of the housekeepers... More

A group of us went to eat dinner here and the food was so good (esp. the seafood pastille) that we ended up returning the next night. The view of the old city is incredible and the service was really good too. I would highly recommend this Riad to anyone. We did not get the chance to stay here, but... More
