Overall Ratings & Reviews Riad Dar Zen

This was a very quaint guest house that was comfortable and just right. A great breakfast. The kitchen was immaculate. Ventrally located in the old town - a great place to spend a few days.

Très charmant, Nous avons adoré!

This riad was a dream. Pretty quaint and tucked in the middle of the medina. Google maps did not direct us infront of the riad, but its not that hard to find if u pay attention and zoom in the map. Its very relaxing to stay in this riad and we were in the camel room with. O ac in the middle of June but had a fan in it, and it was not hot. The host asked us if we ‘d prefer a room w ac, which were upstairs but we wanted the room closer to the pool. It was excellent.

no onsite parking. have to pull you luggage walking over 10 min

Really it is very bad place Arrival there is terrible Area around is unclean No air condition I advice to not rent this for any one. I stay less than hour and leave They dont retain my money The only thing good there is the tarq who is very helpful

This was our first stay in Morocco. Room was simply decorated. The tub in the middle of the room was interesting. Hard for me to wash my long hair but soaking in it after walking miles each day was heaven. The level of the bathroom mirror was too low, but likely limited because of room architecture. The AC unit stopped working in the middle of the night, so a few warm hours. Despite this hiccups, it was a nice refuge from the bustling medina and Tarik was sweet and helpful.

This riad is really beautiful and the service we received from the moment we arrived was great! It is very well located, within walking distance to many of the attractions in Rabat. Highly recommended!

The property was just as beautiful as the pictures show. The only issue was getting there. You need internet access to a good GPS and no taxi can get you to the door. You will need to walk for about 10 min with your luggage and GPS to find it. But it is worth the walk, and very peaceful. Although it is very quiet it was not that private as our room was right next to the common area. Overall I would recommend this place. There were many tourist attractions within walking distance. I also recommend walking down to the beach and oceanside.

DAR ZEN is a lovely authentic Morroccan hotel. Located in the old town in Medina. The staff are really helpful and professional. I really enjoyed my stay and thanks so much to Tarek for all the help .

This is my second stay at Dar Zen. Tarek, the caretaker is wonderful. I’ve read some negative comments in reviews but I couldn’t disagree more. The place is in the middle of a busy souk that is a bit intense - and you have to walk through (you cannot be driven to the door) so that could be a legit concern. However, if you’re after a genuine riad experience, where you are essentially left on your own, this is the place for you. Truth is the place is so peaceful, I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Rabat. Sure there’s a bathtub in the middle of the room, but it’s a bit of a vibe. If your looking to have a Hilton experience, then go to a hotel. This is where you come to get a real Moroccan experience

Beautiful picturesque place, exactly like the pics. The staff are super gracious, friendly and not in your face. The walk to the place is a bit mad walking through the medina, but also makes it feel authentic. Unique experience, with lovely people

All the staff were so friendly and kind and went beyond just providing a room at the guest house. One of the staff became our guide and chaperone for me and my daughter who is studying in Rabat with her University for the semester. Accommodation is excellent in the beautiful guest house hidden in the Medina. Very tranquil and away from the bustling Medina and marketplace.

Beautiful property in Medina. Small and cozy with a great breakfast

If you’re driving by yourself like I did , you’ll get lost the address that it’s post on hotels.com it’s wrong, then you have to park your car outside the medina and walk with your luggage through the little streets that some of those are dark without any light The best part of my Stay at Diar zen was “Anouar” he walk with me to the restaurant and then came back for me to make sure That I didn’t get lost He also make tea as soon we arrived The city feels safe and people are nice and really helpful Ps : have some cash with you to pay locals to help you to find the RIAD zen

Very hospitable hosts, I had left my ring and the owner found a driver to send it 4 hours away to me in Marrakech! Great service.

I uselly don't bother writing reviews but I just felt I had to for the darzen, to begin with its as moroccon as you could want it to be, the natural colour schemes, furnishings, layout all bring that feel your in a new place, each morning I would wake up to a breakfast cooked, I'm quiet a lazy sort so sometimes it was early other times it was late.. An a on demand breakfast really does wonders... Next the staff hayaat the morning House keeper and Anwar the night keeper are just something else, really if I could give 20 stars I would.. they certainly need a pay rise for there great customer approach, finally the manager she's a lovely person, we met on friday had a nice chat, couldn't be more impressed with her style and professionalism, so overall the place is a great escape from the busy madina just minutes away, you can soak in all the smells and tastes all over the gaff, would really recommend going as a couple.

This Riad is buried deep in the winding alleys of the Medina, it can be complicated to find although we never got lost. The rooms are small but they have been stylishly renovated. The most important element in my experience was that the staff was extremely available and helpful going way above and beyond their call to help me in a very difficult, personal situation. Thank you!!!

Good location, great building with clean rooms, but lacking basics & could be made a nicer experience with some small touches

The man who met me at a nearby gate to the Médina was extremely helpful. I arrived late at night and had an early morning pickup. He couldn’t have been nicer in running out to get me a sandwich as I hadn’t eaten and then got up very early to make sure all was well with my departure. As a women alone winding through dark alleys at night to get to the riad I do recommend that whoever is meeting guests to walk them to the riad both have a flashlight to lead the way and bring a sign with the guest’s name so they are certain they are being greeted by the right person.
