Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is a mixed bag - great for a good night's rest but lacks privacy in the rooms due to their proximity to public areas. The location inside the medina is convenient for exploring but may be challenging to find initially. The dining experience is delightful, and the service is friendly and accommodating. However, noise from the breakfast preparations can be disruptive.
The Riad Ta'achchaqua is a hidden gem in the heart of the old city, offering beautiful rooms with fine materials and full of character. The service was impeccable, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable stay. The location is perfect, nestled in a quiet residential area yet close to the vibrant souks and local eateries. While the dining experience was freshly prepared and delicious, there were slight limitations. Overall, a charming stay with great value for money.
