I'm so bad at posting these on time. I can't believe nearly a year has gone since we were here! We stayed in the Riad Karmela from 9th to 16th December 2008, a time that included the festival of Eid al-Adha. This caused a little disruption, as fewer staff meant that the meal we'd booked for the first night was... more

Riad Karmela is a beautifully restructered Riad, a little island of peace and good taste inmidst of the busy medina. The personnel is very friendly and helpful, the rooms are beautifully decorated and the food at the restaurant is excellent and served in a lovely setting. more

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.

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

We have been in Marrakech several times and stayed in different Riads. Unfortunately, Riad Karmela was really not the best choice, because the rooms are small (they look bigger and nicer on the photos) and at the same time very expensive (110 € for a standard room) . The location is also not the best because it is outside the... more

We stayed at the Raid Karmela for 5 nights and really enjoyed our stay there. Joel goes out of his way to help with all requests,he arranged our trip to the Atlas Mountains ( a must ). The food is first class , really tasty and well presented, eating at the Raid was better than the local restuarants.The rooms are... more

Our stay at this riad was fantastic. They arranged a pickup at the airport (It's difficult to find it on your own). 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
