Riad le J

Superb, clean, central little hostelry bang in the middle of everything. Ibrahim is a total gent. Breakfast is charming and the room is spotless with aircon and heating. We stayed in Pepper. Slightly tricky to find down winding narrow streets in the central Medina but worth it for the quiet and quick access to all the sights.

What a lovely place, calm, relaxing and friendly. The staff could not have been more helpful and giving of their time and patience. On arrival you get a map and a wee tour of the immediate area so you know how to find your way to and from the riad. Ibrahim booked excursions for us and then met us to make sure we got on the right transport and when I wanted to go hot air ballooning at silly o'clock in the morning he was ther topersonally escort me through the medina to my pick up point. The ladies bake incredible cakes every morning for part of the huge breakfast and the yogurt is the best we have ever had. I have to say we have never had such good care taken us on holiday.

Love this place. The decor is well curated and gives this airy zen vibe. They have a lovely rooftop patio where you can sit and enjoy the sunset. It's located in the heart of the medina, so it's a bit tough to find the first time, but once you find it, it's very easy to find again. The service was great, all three staff members were super friendly. We're not big breakfast people, but I have to admit the breakfast (included) was really amazing. The fresh juice and yoghurt were amazing. They had this sweet bread that my husband loved. The rooms are small, but enough for two people. I would suggest they offer better shampoo/body wash options, the antique vials of random goo were a bit sketchy. The only time I would not book this place is if you want a party hotel, this riad doesn't have much sound reduction, and it was more of a come-in/go right to bed after a later night elsewhere in the medina, not a place that serves drinks or is set up for a party scene.

Beautiful Riad with lots of charm and caring staff. Book the airport transport through the Riad as it's impossible to find on your own.

My wife and I came here for a birthday celebration. This was our first visit and leading up to our stay, we received an email from the hotel checking what time we were arriving and if they could help us with anything. On arrival we were made to feel very welcome. Our room was ready for us three hours early. Throughout the whole stay, we couldn’t fault anything. The room Menthe was incredible with beutiful colonial details. The thing that stood out to us were the staff, very well trained by Antonio the generous owner. They all were polite, attentive and most of all, sincere. The location was great - away from the tourist hustle and bustle of the Medina but easy enough to get there on a taxi. All in all a perfect stay and we most definitely will be back. Thank you.

Tastefully decorated, central location -- everything was great. But an extra special mention has to be made for the staff. Friendly, professional and more helpful than I've known anywhere I remember, these guys made our stay perfect.
