Johan, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

The staff were very welcoming and made us feel comfortable. The room itself was sufficient for our needs but we would have loved to have a bit more light inside the room.

This was an incredible place to stay in the Medina. The hosts were so nice and accommodating and the breakfast terrific. Would definitely recommend to others and will stay here again should I be in Rabat.
Susanne, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The Riad El Maati is traditional and yet modern and functional inside the room. It’s an easy 20 min walk from the train station. It has electrical outlets in the right places, plenty of wardrobe shelves, and built-in wall heaters. The terrace deck is stunning too. Staff are all very friendly and accommodating, such as for extra blanket. Flexibility with breakfast schedule on departure day. A few improvements could be a bath mat as the shower has no doors on 2 sides so the surrounding floor will always get wet. Google map direction to the Riad is incorrect but luckily we were able to find it on our own

Comfortable Stay

Very comfortable. The lady at the check in was very helpful and courteous
Syed, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Avoid this horrible place at all costs. This riad should be banned from Expedia. Pictures on Expedia do not show the realty of the place. hot tub does not exist, snacks and coffee bar does not exist even filtered water does not exist you can only buy bottled water at 2 times the price of the market, I understand that most Riads are old, but this place is falling apart, and the owner does not want to spend a penny to replace anything (see pictures below)Rooms are dirty mold in bathroom and rusted taps and broken furniture.Hot water for a shower does not exist at night unless you ask the reception to turn on the electrical heater. When asked they said we use solar system during the day but at night only by request to save energy!!!Owner is greedy and lies about additional fees. She wanted to charge city tax on children under 12 and any child over 5 years should pay this fee. in addition, she wanted to charge us more fees on our third child although it’s mentioned clearly that the apartment I booked sleeps 6 people without any extra charge unless we ask for extra beds or covers (which we did not) luckily we were able to confront her with her own policy on fees that she added on Expedia not to pay this scamEven when we tried to leave after our first night (we booked 2 nights) owner not only refused to reimburse us but also wanted to charge us taxes for both nights even if we stayed for one night.

10/10 Excellent

Loved this riad. Within city walls (so have to walk a little, cars not allowed inside city walls) but was able to get someone to help with bags near taxi stand. Room we were in was spacious, clean with comfortable furniture and little outside space. Breakfast was included and excellent. Location was perfect.
Angie, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Staff did not respect privacy and was speaking to us in a very rude and condescending maner. The area around it was quiet enough and walkable to many attractions.

10/10 Excellent

Room was spacious, clean. Showers were great. Faucet was a bit tight and needed to be changed. Staff was amazing and super accommodating. Great location, right off the Main Street of the Medina, also close to a regular street. FYI, it’s next to a Mosque so expect prayers at 4:30 in the morning.
Michelle, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful road near old market

Beautiful road in Rabat. You should definitely check this place out. Very friendly and helpful staff. It's newr the old market and is a great part of town to stay in and explore on foot. The breakfast was a delicious traditional full spread, served at our leisure time. We requested an early breakfast due to an early checkout, and we were gwntlye awoken by a knock on our door to let us know breakfast was ready
Neighborhood was great to explore on foot

8/10 Good

Lovely property near to everything. Excellent staff and a big thanks to Anna the receptionist, hope the spelling of her name was correct, she was awesome and made our visit even better. Thank you! One area that could be improved on is with the room anmenties the drapes in our room covering the door, sink taps need replacement and the toilet needs looking at as it leaked off and on. Other wise a very nice property with a great meet and greet receptionist. Breakfast was awesome,

Difficult to Find Gem

The place was a little difficult to find as it did not come up exactly on my GPS; however, the staff were friendly and someone came out to meet me. Good breakfast and the front-desk person on the day of my arrival was amazing.

10/10 Excellent

The staff at the Riad was incredibly welcoming and helpful. One person walked me to an atm 15 min each way. Hint: have plenty of cash (Moroccan dirham) for tips, cabs)
Diane, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I enjoyed very much my stay in Riad El Maâti, the whole place is really nice, very well located and near many things like Quai de Bouregreg. SUPER clean, the shower pressure just great, and most important of all the people that take care of the Riad. Malika and Radilla have been extremely kind and caring during my stay; very, very attentive. You can only imagine what a big heart they have and how thankful I am to have meet them! It was a GREAT surprise to have such a nice attention from all of them, it is a pleasure for me to recommend such nice places with great people here in Morocco.
Alberto, 6-night trip

6/10 Okay

Clean room but service can be better

The package comes with breakfast and they asked me what time I would like to have breakfast, i told them 8am. They said ok. When i woke up, no one was at the kitchen preparing the breakfast. I had to forgo the breakfast as i have a train to catch at 927am. Else the room is nice and clean.
Yap, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property is amazing. Tucked into old Medina it is a perfect place for those wanting to submerge themselves into the sites, sounds and smells of a large market. There is rue after rue of vendors and people are plenty full. You are a short 10 minute walk to the water where there is a wonderful restaurant on a ship. Keep in mind this riad is VERY authentic and intimate. There are only 7 guest rooms, no windows, tall walls around the entire area and tons of people the second you head out the locked front door. Very different “hotel” experience but once acclimated, very enjoyable.
Donovan, 3-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Don't stay here.

Horrible customer service. Room no TV or mini refrigerator. Taxi could not find the place and drop me off 1 km away.
edinei, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Just a regular Riad in Morocco. I was just disappointed when I finally walked into my bedroom, 2:00 p.m. and almost 90 degrees, and no AC. There was a small fan and even though it gets cool at night, but to walk to an oven like that, was a bad experience.Also, there is a Jacuzzi but they fail to tell you ahead of time that there is a fee to use it. I was also not impressed with breakfast. A no repeat for me.
