Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Riad Dar Al Assad is often described as an oasis of tranquility right in the Medina, just a short walk from Jemaa El Fna square and close to street food vendors. Guests consistently praise the delicious and varied breakfast, which is served individually on the rooftop. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed, and while some guests have mentioned that the jacuzzi water could be warmer, many appreciate the onsite Hammam. Its location near popular tour meeting points adds to the convenience, and the Riad's decor, blending traditional and modern styles, is also frequently highlighted.

delicious breakfastquiet street
The breakfast was delicious! It included a variety of dishes, served individually on the roof. The riad is located in a quiet side street, about five minutes from the main square. The walk there passes many street food vendors. This causes crowding.
The jacuzzi water temperature was not very warm.
