Riad Soleil d'Orient

The room Wall large and breakfast was very

This beautiful Riad was the perfect, serene retreat from the wonderfully chaotic nature of Morocco's city centers. The people at the Riad were kind and responsive to every request and kept it spotlessly clean. We highly recommend this Riad to anyone traveling through El Jadida.

Television didn't work. Very nice heater in the shower room which was great. Food wasn't great.

Beautiful, peaceful and quiet and relaxing place in midst of busy city. Clean and comfortable. Excellent friendly and helpful staff, accommodating to our needs. Food was GREAT! Each room uniquely and beautifully appointed, many different cozy places to relax (courtyard, library, rooftop terrace).

Friendly staff, convenient location and comfortable room. Pleasant facilities. Locale is a little bit grubby but I think that is to be expected.

Charming riad in the old city. Gorgeous courtyard and rooftop patio, breakfasts are excellent, and we had a delicious tajine dinner one night (order ahead). The staff are friendly and helpful. Close walk to Cité portugaise and souk. Area is not touristy so you will have a local experience. Highly recommended.

Pleasant riad with helpful staff. About a 10 minute walk to the historical ramparts. Portugese Cistern is closed for repairs. About 1/2 hour walk to area with choices of restaurants. Area around the riad was not a touristed area at all. We stopped in El Jadida en route to Casablanca instead of returning to Marrakech from Essaouira, and travelling to Casablanca from Marrakech. However, in hindsight that might have been a better option.

The riad is a peaceful space, with welcoming staff and beautiful rooms. My outstanding critique is that the water pressure in the bathroom was relatively weak and inconsistent; there was also a part of one day that the bath faucet seemed to run out, and the toilet would not flush. Otherwise, things seemed in order, and we appreciated the kindness of the service. Thank you for a memorable stay.

The hotel itself was clean and well kept with a few areas requiring maintenance shower controls were problematic with not being able to get a constant temperature staff were friendly and food was average with not much in the way of vegetables with each meal, if given the choice next time I would not stay at this hotel.

The riad itself beautiful, with a gorgeous garden and terrace, it looks dated and in dire need of a touch up. The room was spacious but wasn’t as clean as we would have expected. Unfortunately, upon arrival the hotel manager / front desk lady didn’t greet us with much enthusiasm or warm hospitality. No information was provided for our stay, and when asked about recommendations, she responded with indifference. The same cannot be said about the other hotel staff however, both the porter (Rashid) and the breakfast lady were both hospitable and friendly.

Riad is so-so but ok for one night. Lady manager was surly but the two young worn staff were ver nice

Magnifique riad et accueil agréable

The place is beautiful in terms of architecture and decoration. It is centrally located and the staff is very friendly and welcoming. It is just a bit noisy at night due to a nearby mosque making religious calls.

This property was so calm and quiet that it felt like a sanctuary. We were truly able to relax and just enjoy our very short time in El jadida but the riad made the trip excellent. Breakfast is very delicious here and they make an omlette! As an aside, most of the staff we encountered spoke primarily in french.

Because of review was expecting the wow factor. We chose this because it said they speak English and help you with tourist guides etc. In fact nobody spoke any English therefore we couldn't answer any questions. There was 1 guy there who was very helpful. He was the one we saw doing all the maintenance and cleaning communal areas. Helped us with luggage and parking. This is NOT an easy place to find. But the locals know where you are looking for and point you in the right direction. NO TOWELS!!!! NONE!!! And NO HOT WATER. Well to be honest there was hardly any cold either. It was a mere trickle!!! Maybe that's why no towels as they don't expect you to shower! ! Booked a massage for 30 minutes. She was 20 minutes late and ot was a very rushed 25 minute massage. Not at all relaxing. No pr8vacy. Made me strip off in front of her and the curtains were open. Could hear guests outside in courtyard. Also her phone kept beeping messages. Further out from souks than expected. Unfortunately wouldn't stay again. No bottled water in room even though stays will be VERY NOISY. No key to front door so ring bell to get in. At all hours!!! 11pm. Midnight. 1am. Then the prayer siren 5am and 7am. Needless to say very little sleep either.

Nice hotel

Beautiful riad with friendly, hospitable staff. The patio is a serene oasis where you can sit and sip mint tea and just soak in the atmosphere. The rooms are all styled uniquely and are sophisticated and tasteful. Amenities are fully provided. You could really just spend the entire day within the riad, would totally recommend it.

This riad is a hidden gem. I highly recommend a stay at this wonderful riad

this is a lovely property. We enjoyed everything about it. The staff was very pleasant, the service was great. Our room was lovely. It could have done with some more light. It was hard to see to read. The breakfast was very good--but most Moroccan breakfasts are quite similar. the staff kindly showed us how to get to where we wanted to go.

The hospitality and service from everyone was exceptional. Food was delicious. Had a relaxing end to our 2-week holiday throughout Morocco. If arriving by car, a tip is to just pull up to the Riad and then they will assist in showing you the best parking location. The only thing to be aware of...the dinner prices were a bit higher than we experienced during our previous 2-weeks throughout Morocco; but still a lovely splurge and we really enjoyed our dinner. We especially enjoyed the games area with comfortable seating.
