Riad Soleil d'Orient

“I recently visited Riad Soleil d'Orient and I had a really pleasant experience. Even though I did not stay overnight, I was warmly welcomed and allowed to explore the place, which gave me a great impression of the riad. The atmosphere is truly beautiful and authentic, with traditional Moroccan design, elegant architecture, and a peaceful ambiance that immediately stands out. Every corner of the riad feels carefully designed, combining charm, cleanliness, and a relaxing environment. It is the kind of place where you instantly feel calm as soon as you enter. The staff were very polite, respectful, and professional. They took the time to answer questions and made the visit comfortable even though I was not a guest staying overnight. Their hospitality reflects the quality and standards of the place. I especially liked the interior courtyard, which is quiet and beautifully decorated. It’s perfect for relaxing or enjoying a peaceful moment away from the busy city. The overall atmosphere feels authentic and well maintained, giving a strong impression of Moroccan heritage with a refined touch. Even as a visitor, I could clearly see the quality of service and attention to detail that this riad offers. For anyone considering a stay in Meknes, I would definitely recommend Riad Soleil d'Orient. Based on my visit, it absolutely deserves a 5★ rating for its beauty, hospitality, and overall atmosphere.”

“This African inspired hotel provided a nice stay. The suite we got was big and designed as a clay clad African hut. Very charming. The water in the shower had to be pre-heated which stole a couple of minutes before the shower but otherwise the room was great. They have spa treatments which we tried and they were equally good. Dinner was good and the dining room is nice. You can get rather close with a car here (50-100m) but it is still a bit tricky to find the entrance. The area around is not a tourist area and we got quite looked at when we walked around. But I think I'd like to stay here again if passing by El Jadida.”

“This Riad is a delightful place to stay. It is not in the old part of the town and, from the outside, looks quite ordinary. It is approached down a narrow alley, through a small traditional doorway, and suddenly you are inside an oasis of tranquilly and charm. There are trees in the large, cool, central courtyard which is beautifully decorated. The rooms are on the first and second floors and are also delightfully decorated. Because there were no suitable restaurants nearby we decided to eat in the Riad. It was a good choice. The food was excellent and they easily coped with the fact that half our party were vegetarian and one gluten intolerant. It is a delightful place to stay.”

“Such a beautiful experience lovely decor very stylish and great staff and breakfast would highly recommend. Rooms were well appointed and you can tell alot of care goes into running the riad”

“Beautiful riad. Outstanding service. Delicious food. Great massage services. What more can one want?||The riad has a large and beautifully manicured courtyard. The room and bathroom were nice and had all the amenities one might need. Nicely decorated. But nothing out of the ordinary. ||I had dinner at the riad. Their lamb tajine was one of the most delicious tajines I had while in Morocco. Their breakfast was a typical Moroccan spread.||The location was walking distance to all the sites to see in El Jadida. There was no parking on the rather narrow street. They had parking available at a site nearby. Although, with the winding alleys to get there, even though the distance from the riad was short, I kept getting lost. That is not common for me.”

“Unfortunately I had only one night here. It is beautiful, quiet, and relaxing. It is a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the larger, more popular imperial cities. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed. Great attention to detail. Even the bathroom towels are divine. One of the best places I encountered during my 15-day Moroccan tour. You are within walking distance of the old Portuguese town and souks. I chose to eat dinner in the town, and I left before sunrise the next morning. So I did not experience dining inside the riad. I had an adventurous, fast-paced vacation itinerary. I purposefully planned the last 2-3 days to be slower paced with time for rest and recovery. Knowing what I know now, I would have spent an extra day at Soliel for R&R.”
