"I am nearly 70 years old, I find it hard to say it out loud, I have been travelling for 50 years, I have visited maybe 80 different countries and stayed in hundreds of hotels. This is , quite simply, one of the best of them all. Can I try to explain why ?
On arrival it is so unassuming; a small entrance from a busy street in the middle of the ancient Medina. A single sign, it would be easy to miss, but inside, it is like Doctor Who’s Tardis: only about 10 bedrooms arranged over four levels; each built around a central courtyard with tables, sunbeds and so on
It is immaculately clean and artistically decorated
The top floor is quiet, peaceful with a great view over the city. A perfect place to spend two hours with a book on sunny afternoon
The breakfast is one of the beds, not just as the food is so imaginative, but because of the friendly service, and the stunning location
We LOVED our bedroom: a large comfortable bed, high quality cotton (or was kt line ?) sheets and pillows, spotlessly clean, an architecturally stunning bathroom, tea, coffee, air con. We had it all, a little oasis among the hustle and bustle of the Medina
Top of the pops though come the staff at the hotel and that means everyone: a fine team,. Everybody friendly, everybody knowing their jobs. Nothing was too much to ask. They really made this feel like home
Finally, here is to tip. The hotel does not have a permanent restaurant but Expedia's limit on characters won't let me tell you anymore "
"We stayed in the Riad Perle D’eau for two nights and loved it so much that we booked four more.
Firstly, if you have never strayed in a riad then DO IT. They are like Doctor Who’s Tardis., A small unassuming entrance and then boom, inside an oasis of beauty. Only a handful of rooms , built around a central core with lots of nooks and crannies just waiting to be discovered
What a beautiful location. As I pen this I am sitting in the upper terrace, watching the sun rise over the ocean and listening to the sea crashing on the rocks below
What great staff , the wonderful Ishmael with his welcoming smile and helpful thoughts, the marvellous Cabrera who organised for us a Hamman something or other and then a transcendental massage. I didn’t learn the name of everybody and feel guilty for that but without exception, everybody was so welcoming and, when far from home, that made out little hotel feel like home
Did I forget to mention the breakfast, with so many things to choose from and such as selection of fine nibbles
We were lucky enough to stay in a suite overlooking the ocean and sipped a white wine while listening to Adele singing about when she was young and watching the people frolic on the beach below
For me an easy ten out of ten
