Riad Azoulay

i will be back to this beautiful place and longer this time. location wise is abit remote . just dont go out late at night

When you first walk through the spice market leading to the Riad you do wonder what you have let yourself in for, the market is fairly manic. The riad on the other hand is an oasis of serenity. From the first moment you walk through the door until you leave to go back to the airport you are in a haven of peace and tranquility. The riad smells wonderful, the staff just can't do enough for you and the rooms are beautifully clean. Whoever is responsible for the general upkeep of the riad is definitely doing something right. On our first night we ate in the riad and it was one of the best meals we had during our stay, the lamb was cooked beautifully and it was all the more special as we were the only guests eating in that night, it was almost as if we had arrived at a friends house for dinner!, What we also really liked was that you could choose where you dined, downstairs, on the roof or on the tables just outside your room, just ask and it was sorted. The ladies in the hammam also did a fantastic job on one of the afternoons when my wife and I enjoyed a couple of hours there. Whilst I hate to pick out staff, as they were all wonderful, I would like to especially thank Abdul and Ayoub (hope I spelt that right) for looking after us during our stay, these gentlemen definitely understand what looking after guests means. All in all though all of the staff were great. If you are in the city and looking for a riad then I would definitely recommend this riad.

The staff could not have been more helpful! They arranged drivers for us, made dinner reservations, printed some pages for me, prepared dinner for our first evening. They were very kind and helpful! The lobby is beautiful and our room was very comfortable.
