Reviews of Riad Capaldi

Lovely, intimate Riad with tasteful, minimalist, contemporary interior design - Moroccan influenced without being kitsch - elegant light fittings and traditional Moroccan plaster ('tadelakt') bathrooms. The larger Jasmine room we stayed in was spacious and light, with a fireplace and armchairs. We had pre-booked dinner the first night, which was simple but excellent. Le Foundouk restaurant (with rooftop) - recommended by the Riad and 2 mins walk away - was absolutely fantastic (although just short of London prices it was well worth it). The location was good, not too far from the taxi drop off (the Riad can arrange transfers) and around the corner from the stunning Ben Yousef Madrassa. It was 10-12 minutes walk to Jemaa el-Fnaa and about 30 minutes to Jardin Majorelle. Breakfast on the roof top terrace was excellent. Last but not least, the staff were exceptional - warm, polite and very helpful (as was the driver who did the transfers). We would definitely stay there again.

More dessert options might be worth the management considering but then desserts are my thing. Nothing else.

Difficult to find but well worth the effort. Fabulous managers helped us save money on a booking, so, so very friendly and helpful. Gave us coffee and Moroccan bread on a couple of afternoons when I asked. Breakfast was delicious, and Bader added fruit to the yogurt upon request. The bed was very comfortable. The rooftop seating area for breakfast, available anytime, was lovely, including climbing flowers and birds filling the air with song.

Minor inconveniences included the low water pressure, the lack of a door in the bathroom (although there was one in the toilet area), and the housekeeping staff's failure to provide hand towels for a couple of days and to clean the sink area on one occasion. These were all very minor. Location is difficult to find, so take photos of the entrance when you go out to make it easier to find.

We had an amazing time due to the hospitality of the team of Riad Capaldi.

The staff did everything they could to help. They recommended and walked us to a nearby restaurant in the first night to help us get our bearings. They walked us to the taxi pick up also to ensure we were in the correct place. Bader was excellent helping with everything. The square is only a short walk away so the location is excellent

The taxi cannot drop or pick you up directly outside of the property, it’s not easy to locate at first but once you know where to go it’s easy. Sometimes you have to wait a while to get into the property as you have to ring the bell to get in.

The staff were great, very helpful and obliging, going above and beyond what was expected.

A mirror in the bedroom and a better reading light would be nice

Beautiful space in a hectic area, staff were all very nice, especially Bade.

The only thing we didn't like was you don't have a key to the front door entrance so sometimes need to wait for someone too come

The hodts were exceptional, especially the ladies who were preparing breakfast and doing up our rooms. Badr was so kind and gudied us through the Medina and both Badr and Mourane helped us with our cases when taking the taxis.

The mopeds in the streets outside the riad

Stunning building and roof terrace and excellent attentive staff
