Riad d'Or - Meknes

Updated: Oct 26

Riad d'Or - Seven Nights


Riad d'Or is the most adorable Riad. It is spacious and has the most enormous terrace we have yet to experience in Morocco. It is the perfect spot to chill out, with 360-degree views designed for comfort and soaking in this beautiful country's everlasting sun (even a rooftop pool). Sunsets and sunrises are incredible, and listening to the call to prayer from the 28 nearby mosques is magical!



The rooms are unique and spacious, and the beds are heavenly. The bathrooms have a nice hot shower and excellent water pressure.


The team makes you feel at home. They are accommodating and friendly, and nothing is too much. You leave feeling like part of the family.


Breakfast is an abundance of pastries, fruit, fresh orange juice and Moroccan omelette. Coffee is excellent, too! Dinners are delightful, and the food is delicious. The restaurant is a great space overlooking a beautiful courtyard.



There are many hideouts throughout the Riad. To find some quiet time to chill out and relax over some local tea with a great book, you feel like you have booked the entire Riad.


The location is perfect. Everything is a short walk away. You are in the Medina, so all conveniences are on your doorstep or a 6-dirham taxi ride away.


This is a fantastic recommendation from their sister hotel in Dades Valley, Auberge Chez Pierre. Both run from the same family, and the quality of both is exceptional. The staff is consistent throughout both hotels, and the cleanliness is as good as any hospital. The staff is diligent in cleaning from top to bottom each day.


Thank you so much for welcoming us into your Riad for one week; it has been the perfect place to spend our last week in Morocco after three months of travelling to your most beautiful country. We hope to see you all again someday soon.
