Meknes Hotels

Mostly everythin in the Riad is OK. Attention, very good. The situation, perfect, one block from the main plaza.

Nothing important

fabulous food and wine,excellent staff,great character and location,what a find!

nothing

The hotel is in a garden setting and a quiet area.Staff were very friendly and helpful. They organised a tour by taxi to Volubilis and Moulay Idris. It was good value and the driver was good. Good breakfast.

A couple of extra English-speaking channels on the TV would be good.

It's the standard Ibis fare - just what you'd expect, comfortable, clean but not luxurious. The pool is great, but after 3ish it gets shaded over as the sun moves. The location is excellent - half way between Ville Nouville and the medina.

Air con doesn't really seem to work - just pumps out one temperature which was slightly too high.

Staff was very nice made us feel at home was very pleasant

The terrace and main courtyard were lovely. Room was ok. It had a toilet and shower that worked and was a good size. Decor was hideous but room was clean. I would suggest haggling for a better price and using as a good budget option.

I felt the owner was always trying to get us to pay for more and slightly over the odds. However, I am a pretty keen haggler so if you're happy with the costs then it's fine (it's not expensive for europeans, just in the context of Morocco.) He suggested we take a private taxi to Volubilis/Moulay idriss for the "special price" of 400 Durhams. We opted to take a grand taxi for 20 each, each way and another taxi to Volubilis for 30 in total each way. So we ended up travelling on our own terms for not much more than a tenner rather than almost 40 euros. He also pushed us into eating there when we only wanted a snack and was quite difficult about it. As with many Riads, he is out to make a profit on the side.

Location.

Booked room small with no seating. Fine in summer, but not in winter. Upgraded to 80 Euro room to get a sitting area. Bathroom awful (due to choice of water absorbent eatherware tiles). Restuarant cold with guests in anoraks and woolley hats. Menu limitied with daily choice of tajine or couscous. 80 euros would buy a pretty decent room in a good hotel and I feel Riads need a wake up call.

The Ryad's location in middle of Medina was excellent. It had a very strong Moroccan flavor to the decor and layout. The owners were very friendly and helpful.

Ines-Palace was a lovely riad in the old medina. The food was delicious, the bed comfortable and the service excellent. I usually prefer eating-out but consider the Moroccan food served at Ines-Palace to be better than any of the other restaurants I tried in Meknes!

I liked everything and would definitely stay at Ines-Palace again.

The staff,both Simon and Mouna were fabulous,they couldnt do enough to make our stay the best we have experienced. We felt very much part of the family and were helped with every request,more than we could ever expect. A wonderful stay in a wonderful place with wonderful people. We would recommend Riad Lahboul to anyone visiting Meknes for whatever reason.

Staff are very nice and friendly, though we can't speak French or Moroccan.

Pity that they charge us tax for our bookings, which should be already included in the rate.

good, very good
