Riad Malaïka is a jewel in the crown of the Medina. It is elegant and airy. The staff is knowledgeable and kind. The best part is the food, which brings delicious fine dining to its guests. I can’t wait to return.

The Riad was beautiful. Very luxurious. The staff was top notch. Met the owner. Very upscale. Loved my room. It was like a Four Seasons. Loved the basket of Moroccan shoes to wear during the stay. The rooftop was beautiful and had everything to make it comfortable. I had dinner at Riad one evening. The very best monkfish. This Riad was a highlight of my stay in Morocco. Thank you so much.

Morgenmaden var det bedste

Hotellet var fint. Hyggeligt spiseområde med god morgenmad. Værelset var noget mindre end jeg havde forventet, men det var okay. Det var forholdsvis lydt.
