Riad Karmela is a quiet oasis hidden behind high walls and small alleys. Once you step through the door the hustle and bustle of the outside world disappears. It is ideally located with the souks and main square a short walk away and once you have got your head around the narrow little streets and alleys it is easy to... more

We booked Riad Karmela because of it's reputation on tripadvisor and were not disappointed. Entered via very narrow, dusty and chaotic streets you are suddenly tranported in to the most beautiful, cool, tranquil central yard with a fountain and fruit trees. The height of the building walls means the sun rarely beats down on the yard, keeping it beautifully cool... more

We stayed in the Oum Kaltoum appartment with our 2 children of 4 and 7 years; we all loved our stay, we enjoyed our own private terrass, the quietness, the good food, the fact that games and books are provided Only point to say: the swimming pool is very small more

The riad is extremely beautiful and tasteful, very stylish. It is in a good location about 10 mins walk from the main square. The staff are lovely and very friendly. The hammam experience was fantastic as was the masage (thanks Laila!) and the roof terrce is superb. The roof jacuzzi was absolutley FREEZING though, so you will have it to... more

The location is also not the best because it is outside the... more

Joel showed us different rooms all clean and very beautiful.If you have any problems at all just ask Nadia our Joel they will help you, nothing is to much for them. Also try the food in the riad... more

The riad is exactly how it appears on the photos on the internet--really beautiful, quite, and tastefully decorated. It's a great place to relax and to visit Marrakesh. Everyone there is nice and helpful and the spa services are great. I highly recommend it--we'll be back there when we visit Marrakesh again. more
