Africa Historic Holidays

Had a wonderful stay at Riad Nasreen. Everything from the staff to the room to the breakfast, amazing!

the riad was much better than I expected. The room was spacious, bed comfortable, and the best part was the in house hamam and massage.

Oasis in the Medina. Phantastic chef who made terrific lamb chops and octopus dinners

Stayed for three nights in Marrakesh, before and after my adventures in Zagora. Each time I returned, the staff greeted me with a natural, honest kindness that made the place feel almost familiar. The restaurants, the bars, the peaceful pool, all pleasant. A quiet corner of calm in the middle of the city’s constant motion.

Riad Karmela – A place that truly looks after you I stayed at Riad Karmela during my time in Marrakech and couldn’t have chosen a better base. From arrival to departure, I felt genuinely cared for — not as a booking, but as a person. The staff are exceptional: warm, attentive, and quietly present without ever being intrusive. I travelled solo and felt safe, relaxed, and supported at all times. A special mention must go to Fatima, the manager. She is outstanding. She upgraded my room without me asking, regularly checked in on me, offered coffee with genuine kindness, and made sure every detail of my stay ran smoothly. Her professionalism and warmth set the tone for the entire riad. Airport transfers were seamless, and both the driver and the young staff member who assisted me were respectful, reliable, and caring. It says a lot about a place when every member of the team carries themselves with pride. The riad itself is beautiful, peaceful, and perfectly located. After the energy of the Medina, returning here felt like exhaling. Riad Karmela isn’t just somewhere you stay — it’s somewhere you’re looked after. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Marrakech, especially solo travellers. I will definitely return.
