Excellent customer service and lovely family friendly rooms! We stayed as a family or five and had enough space in the family room to move around. The only downside was the poor ventilation in the rooms however I appreciate that this is a very old building. Regardless, this day exceeded my expectations and I will definitely stay again.

Riad Karmela was an excellent choice for our Marrakech stay. Right in the centre of the medina so an easy walk to all the main souks and sights. Our room was clean, breakfast was tasty and all the staff were super helpful - would stay here again if we are ever back in Marrakech.

Excellent staff and service. We reached around midnight after a long drive through a storm. After check in, staff offered refreshing tea and dinner and did not charge us. The staff provided fresh fruits, dates and nuts and several water bottles daily. Breakfast was good but same every day.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Riad Karmela. The staff, including Fatima Ezzarha, both our drivers, everyone working at breakfast and generally around the hotel were so kind and hospitable. They went out of their way to make sure we had a comfortable stay and support with delayed baggage and our very curious young son. Fatima Ezzarha, who had her hands full multi-tasking the entire time we were there, was so calm and helpful - she made us feel like we were the only and most important guests in the hotel. We've stayed at many riads in Marrakech and the breakfast is stunning and absolutely unrivaled. We will definitely be back!
