Great location

A lovely riad, right in the centre of the Souk. We used the collection service (15euros) and I'm not sure we'd found it without that! Once we got our bearings though it was easy to find and it was a great location. The room was large and had a mini fridge, there was wifi (best we found) and a lovely roof terrace as well. Breakfast was simple but very good and the staff were lovely. On an eco front, they didn't need to change the towels every day, but that shouldn't stop you from using them. I would definitely recommend and go back again. The souk itself is enormous and very busy as is the square, but at all times we felt safe and on the whole the people were lovely.

Perfect Riad stay!

Just come back from a stay here and have to say it was the best place I've stayed in Morocco. Perfect location and super clean. Very helpful and friendly staff especially Abdul Latif who helped us with whatever it was we needed. Recommend to anyone who's looking to book a riad, book this one!

Wonderful place to stay!

We stayed there for 3days with my family and had a wonderful time! This road is a little gem. Very quiet and comfortable! Beautiful set up inside, nice breakfast and good internet for those who need to work in the evening. Make sure you book the transfer with the hotel, as it saves a lot of time and nerves after long flight. Abdu was very extremely helpful recommending us places around and helping us with our luggage. Highly recommend!! Would definitely stay again!

Highly recommend

Lovely property with super friendly and helpful staff. Quite difficult to find so would highly recommend you book airport transfers with them (at 15euro each way) this includes a porter for luggage through the souks if after 1pm when cars are not allowed in. Location is great - right in the heart of the chaos but still super quiet in the rooms!

The Samarine is in the middle of the Medina. Streets are narrow, motorbikes jostle with pedestrians in the Souks. It takes a day to find your way through the maze of alleys. Samarine, however. Is on a quiet deadend. There is no noise inside. The rooftop is enjoyable. The breakfasts are excellent. The staff is excellent and the bed was comfortable. Samarine is not for everybody because it is comparably inaccessible. At the same time, staying there is an adventure that many will enjoy. We are glad we chose Samarine.

Muy recomendable

Se trata de un Riad situado literalmente a 5 minutos de la plaza Jamma el Fna lo que es una maravilla ya que en nada estás en el centro de la ciudad. Las habitaciones son muy amplias y muy limpias. Sin lujo alguno, pero con todo lo que se puede necesitar cuando se viaja: una cama muy cómoda y un baño limpio y con una buena ducha. El desayuno está incluido y es muy completo. No es exactamente lo que estamos acostumbrados a almorzar en Europa, pero es bueno.

Great location being in the heart of the Market

Location was on the spot. Literally in the heart of the market, but getting to the place you will need help, since local taxi would not be able to get in. Better call the guest house attendant which was very friendly to pickup you at your location. Overall good but would love to have our own kettle in the room, since we have our 2 yrs old, but since we are booked on the ground floor it was easy accessible to the kitchen. I guess better to request in advance if something you need during your stay.

Riad was lovely the owners were very welcoming. Located right in the centre of the souk so I would encourage to organise transfers with the Riad themselves so you can be guided to the property. Trying to find it by yourself you might be walking around in circles for a while
