Riad Sidi Fatah

The Riad is lovely and in a lovely location. The cleaning staff were soo polite. Unfortunately my stay here was ruined as the young man who I believe to be the host Walid took a like to me. He offered me a massage on many occasions in which I turned down. He asked for number and Facebook, I didn’t give my number and told him I only had Instagram. I didn’t give my username but somehow he found me and added me. I ignored the add, he then always messaged me which I ignored. He messaged once again and would often send time standing outside my room. I felt soo uncomfortable by all this I feared for my safety and left the Riad early and spent my last night else where. A shame really.

Travelled Oct 2018. The staff were warm and friendly and bent over backwards to make my stay enjoyable. Jet-lag made me miss my morning breakfast and didn't wake until 11am. I showered and when I stepped out of my room, I saw that they had made up a special table for me and they made sure I didn't go hungry. Little spoken English, but it didn't hinder my ability to understand and be understood. The young gentleman even walked me to the restaurant he recommended for me for dinner. Truly wonderful service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this Riad. It truly was the highlight of my entire stay in Morocco.

Bed was comfy. Didn’t like the fact that you need to pay for tea and other beverages. Every other riad I’ve been were free. The riad is beautiful. The wifi is absolutely useless it is so sooo bad

I didn't like the fact that Walid, the young man that booked us into the place took a photo of both of our passports on his personal phone when we checked in I'M PRETTY SURE THAT'S NOT LEGAL. Breakfast was VERY poor for £59 for one night . cold coffee, no tea offered, 1 peach each, 1 crêpe each and 1 small danone yoghurt each and that was it.

My friend and I spent one day touring Rabat which is a lovely city but the highlight of this day was the Riad Sidi Fatah, an authentic, beautiful bed n breakfast in the heart of the medina, right next to the big market.

Great location, but gave us the smaller average room. They had given our room to a young German couple. But it had a single bed in it too. No roof terrace facilities, two tiny chairs and table. No sofa, washing hanging in your face. Great! Breakfast ok. Slapped 2 fried eggs down on the table, not even asked which we would like. One each.. cheap! So basic, not even a £1 bottle of water supplied in the room, charged for it. Very dark room.

Nice staff, pretty place. .................... z z

After working with WhatsApp and Google translate, the owner and I were able to arrange pick up from Rabat airport. The fact that he was happy to go the extra mile was very helpful and reassuring. The location is superb for exploring the old medina. We will be back!

+cozy room +good traditional breakfast +friendly staff with limited English +good location in Medina -no parking -basic amenities -basic bathroom

TL;DR: Bad place. Save yourself. Go elsewhere The riad was easy to find and was in a nice part of the Medina. That's about all the positives for this place. There was no one at the hotel who could properly speak English with us. No one even offered to take bags up to our room. Once we get to the room, there was a noticeably strong foul odor. In the washroom, there was no hand soap provided. The floor mat was filthy. The sink did not drain properly and would clog for several minutes, making it impossible to use it for more than a few seconds, without constantly taking breaks. The shower was even worse. It DID NOT DRAIN AT ALL. After a shower, there was a large pool of dirty soap water collected at the bottom. EWW! Had to step out of the shower and wash my feet again. The remote for the AC was missing so I used sign language to get a remote from staff. He gave me his own from the lounge area downstairs. Got the AC working, but a few minutes later the AC starts leaking; and I mean really leaking hard; large amounts of liquid. The dripping alone was enough to drive someone mad and obviously we couldn't sleep with the thing on. And since the AC was on top of the bathroom door, we'd have to use an umbrella to get in and out. Night time: people inside the riad talking/laughing loud and playing music until 1AM! Breakfast was pitiful; old bread and pancakes thrown in a toaster, from the fridge. Staff bathroom had no soap either, so imagine the hands that touched your food. Disgustin

The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The common areas are beautifuly decorated in a traditional moroccan style. The location is pretty good, although it was a bit difficult to find in the medina. I suggest you get a pretty good map before your check-in! The shower is very small and has no door or curtain, so the bathroom gets a bit messy. Also if you are a light sleeper, good to know that from the room you can hear sounds coming from the street and from the kitchen downstairs (it is pretty much the same for every riad in the medina though).

Great hotel, friendly staff, very clean. Beautiful terrace upstairs.

The riad was a pretty, private and clean place. It is located inside the old city so car cannot enter, luggage has to be wallked in for a distance. If raining you will get wet. The service is very good. Breakfast was good. However the room was very dark without enough lights creating a gloomy feel. Bathroom was without much amenity, shower was slow to drain.

Leuke riad, vriendelijk. Maar slechte verlichting op kamer en geen afzuiging, beetje vochtig dus.wel op giede plaats gelegen in Medina.

Très beau Riad, accueil et disponibilité du personnel au top, pas de bruit, très propre, vraiment bien.. Internet OK, pas de TV dans la chambre (mais c'est un détail). Riad au coeur de la Médina

Ci ha accolto una bambina di 8/10 anni che nn parlava dalla timidezza ci ha solo indicato la stanza. Niente check-in ne check-out . Letto sporco. Fortuna abbiamo passato solo una notte nella struttura. Prezzo eccessivo per il servizio!

Nett eingerichtetes Riad mit schönen Zimmern, aber leider nicht so schöner Terrasse. Das Frühstück war gut, der Service aber eher distanziert und unpersönlich. Tipp: wenn ihr die Wahl habt, nehmt nicht das Zimmer im Erdgeschoss auf der linken Seite in Richtung Gasse. Es liegt direkt neben der Küche und ist daher morgens laut. Abends treffen sich manchmal Gruppen vor dem Riad, sodass es von der Gasse laute Musik und Gespräche zu hören gibt. Die Fenster bieten nur begrenzten Schallschutz.

Très négatif. Riad très moyen par rapport au prix. Mal isolé, on entendait une des employés parler très fort au téléphone et de notre côté on devait chuchoter pour pas que l'on nous attende a l'extérieur. Salle de bain pas très hygiénique, mauvaise odeur des remontée d'égout. Personnel pas accueillant, et arnaque au niveau du service de navette vers l'aéroport. Nous avions appeler pour savoir si c'était compris dans le tarif, et on nous l'a confirmer. Après l'arrivée dans un taxi très vieux, au lieu d'une navette, on nous demande de payer 200 dirhams pour quelques kilomètres, alors qu'un taxi lambda prenez 10 15 dirhams par personne. Arnaque, fuyez ce riad.

/!\ ATTENTION ARNAQUE /!\ Nous avons choisis le riad pour la navette gratuite à l'aéroport. Nous avons appelé avant de réserver pour avoir une confirmation. Après confirmation, nous avons réserver et le lendemain, on se retrouve à payer un montant excessif, et nous n'avons pas eu de navette mais un taxi magouilleur avec une voiture qui n'est pas au norme. J'ai fais beaucoup de Riad, mais celui ci, c'est une escroquerie en bande organisé. Vraiment je suis outré, ça ma gâché mon voyage. Je l'ai appelé pour resoudre le problème, il a etait irrespectueux et nous a fait bien comprendre que cest comme ca et pas autrement. Je lui ai dit que je mettrai une note négative, il ma dit de le mettre, que ça ne le dérange pas. Bref une escroquerie pour les touristes, avec un riad qui sent les égouts.

The hotel is centrally located and has all the amenities. The furnishing is traditional and elegant, and the building has a terrace with a sweeping view over Rabat’s rooftops. Staff is generally friendly and the room was clean. Breakfast is rich and served on the ground floor.
