Dar Housnia

We took the whole 4 bedroom Riad, even though there were only 4 of us. Still great value. We got a cab from the airport and were dropped off a short walk from the Riad (through the busiest and craziest little alleyways - but it all added to the experience!) When the door opened into the Riad, we were bowled over by how peaceful and beautiful it is inside. There's a central courtyard with a huge palm tree in it and a sitting area. All the bedrooms are full of character and very comfortable. There's a small swimming pool and a lovely roof terrace where we had breakfast every day. We had 2 evening meals in the Riad and 2 others at local restaurants (La Terrace des Epices and +61 - both excellent and very different feel to each other. Try both - you won't be disappointed!). The Riad meals were delicious - fantastic fresh salads and bread with chicken and lemon tagline one night and lamb tagline the other. Followed by dessert. All cooked by the lovely Zineb. At a cost of around €30 euros a head, they were really Good value. The Riad is beautiful but the staff just make the whole experience wonderful. Abdu and Hamza are both charming and helpful and always on hand for whatever you need. All the housekeeping staff are smiley and keep the place spotlessly clean. You should be aware that the Riad does not have a licence to sell alcohol - something we were not aware of prior to arriving. Not a massive issue in the scheme of things really but worth knowing. Overall we had a fabulous time here and would highly recommend it, especially if you're looking for an authentic Moroccan experience.
