    The alleyway was not clean, cat feces. Also they do not accept from Booking.com. I had to go to another their Raid which was a 10 minute walk to pay for my stay, however the owner did give me a 10% discount for my troubles. Also the cabs do not go into the location. You have to drag your luggage for at least a 15 minute walk to get to the main street for transportation. The rooftop could’ve been a better comfort feel it’s not exactly somewhere you just wanna hang out at once you come back. This is where they wash and they hang the clothes, bedsheets, etc..

    Good location once you get out of Medina to the streets to find a cab.

    Note that it is in the old market, so you cannot take a taxi up there. You have to carry your luggage about 500 m. The street is super dirty and you do not feel that safe (it is safe, but you will feel differently on the first day).

    The host is wonderful, very friendly and caring. The location is exactly in the middle of the Bazaar which is nice. The breakfast is in the standard level compared to other hotels in Morocco.

Breakfast was delicious, the room was clean and beautiful, and it is such a tranquil atmosphere. A wonderful spot in the heart of the medina and I hope to visit again some day. Thank you thank you from Canada :)

    Beautiful and super welcoming, right in the heart of the medina and very close to all services. The rooms are spotless, and the staff are incredibly kind and friendly. We left a piece of our heart in this place—so many beautiful emotions and so much affection. You’ll also have the pleasure of meeting Mimì, the Riad’s cat, who will make you laugh and warm your soul. The breakfast was delicious and truly satisfying. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS, BROTHERS OF RIAD SOUIKA! WE’LL SEE YOU SOON. WE LOVE YOU. A big hug from Sicily. ❤️

    Incredible riad in the heart of Rabat’s souk — style, comfort, peace and a perfect breakfast

    As is common with traditional riads, the room and bathroom windows open onto the interior courtyard, which can limit air circulation. It’s part of the local architectural charm — just something to be aware of in advance.

    ucked away on a quiet side street right inside Rabat’s central market, this riad is a true gem. Despite being in the heart of the action, it’s remarkably peaceful — an oasis of calm just steps from the vibrant souk. The decor and design are beautifully curated, with every detail reflecting authentic Moroccan style. Out of all the places I stayed during my trip to Morocco, this was by far the most memorable. The rooms are spacious, and the homemade breakfast served on the rooftop terrace is the perfect start to the day. Highly recommended.

    The bed wasn't comfortable and it was very squeaky with every movement. We woke up in the middle of the night just from trying to roll over.

    Riad is in the middle of medina, so you get to explore the local markets only a few footsteps from your room. It's the best possible location if you want to enjoy it as a tourist. The Riad offered a very good breakfast served on the rooftop terrace of the building. The room was clean, bathroom was okay. There was a missing hairdryer but it was quickly provided when we asked the staff. Communication with the staff was without any issue, if you needed anything, we could just message him on WhatsApp.

    There isn’t a 24hour manned front desk or reception area as such, so sometimes there was loud banging on the front door of guests wanting to come in especially late at night. Being two female travellers we did not want to come out of our room to open the door to strangers. If you do need something of course the staff are just a WhatsApp message away which is very helpful but we did have to go to a hotel 10mins away in order to print boarding passes which was a requirement from Ryanair as there are no ‘reception’ facilities (which can be expected with a Riad) Not a negative just a heads up! 😊

    Ziad you were so helpful all the time thank you so much! Gorgeous traditional Riad, interior was always so clean, housekeeping in rooms everyday and lovely rooftop terrace for breakfast each morning. Great selection of bread, pancakes, fruit and eggs as well as tea & coffee for breakfast served at a great time! The staff organised gorgeous cake for my mummy’s birthday celebration complete with candles, thank you so much for this wonderful touch! Right in the centre of the medina so brilliantly situated in the heart of the hustle and bustle but on such a quiet street. Value for money & quality of stay was great! Free tea & coffee in the communal lounge area.

    The bed was a bit noisy.

    The Riad is fabulous, clean and very well decorated. The room was comfortable and the terrace was very nice. The breakfast was delicious. We loved the owner’s attention to our experience and his genuine kindness. The location is perfect because it’s in the Medina but also close to the gates from which you can reach Rabat’s top attractions. Totally recommended.

    Well, it was really unusual for us that there was no door to our bathroom/toilet :)))

    We stayed at Dar Souika for two nights, March 19-21, 2025 and liked it very much. We're very thankful to Ziad for his smiles, friendliness and welcoming atmosphere he created for us. It was our very first African experience, coming to Morocco and it was very important to feel accepted. Wonderful breakfast on the rooftop and talking to our neighbours made our stay so pleasant! Both Ziad and Hamsa were ready to meet our needs. Oh, what else made us happy is packed breakfast on our leaving early in the morning :))) Thanks to Ziad for that and also for helping out with the directions to the sights.

    The layout of the beds in the room could be changed a little to make it flow better. The aircon/heater was loud and it didn't seem work very well.

    The location is great, in medina near one of the main gates. The staff was helpful. It's pretty. The beds are comfortable since we like firm beds. The bedding and towels were clean. Shower was nice and hot. The hair dryer worked very well. Quet at night. It provided nice breakfast.

    This was our second stay at Riad Dar Souika, which says a lot! So nice to be welcomed again by our friend and host, Mohamed. This beautifully-decorated riad is a pleasure to stay in. Although it is in a small street just off the main medina, we always found it quiet at night. Breakfast on the terrace here is amazing: plenty of assorted fruits, freshly-baked pancakes and cakes, fresh orange juice, eggs, yoghurt, cheese, home-made jams and tea or coffee - I'm getting hungry again as I write this :-) Thank you so much to Mohamed, Yassin, and the housekeeper for making our stay so pleasant. Without hesitation, I recommend Riad Dar Souika 100%
