ANAYELA

Schon direkt beim betreten des wunderschönen Hofes waren wir ganz verzaubert! Diese schlichte Schönheit und Eleganz, die Ruhe und die vielen liebevollen Details sind etwas ganz besonderes. Vor allem wenn man aus der hektischen Medina kommt ist die ruhige und familiäre Atmosphäre bei AnaYela genau richtig! Wir haben uns super wohl gefühlt und kommen gerne wieder. Besonders hervorzuheben ist auch der absolut perfekte Service ❤️ vielen Dank für einen unvergesslichen Aufenthalt

Beautiful hotel, but I had issues with the manager.

The hotel renovations were immaculate.
I opted for the pickup service at the train station based on other reviews indicating that the entrance was hidden. The driver was there on time and warmly greeted me.

The hotel has a very limited number of rooms and gets booked fast, so book in advance. The staff greeted you upon arrival and served Moroccan tea and cookies at check in. The rooms were spacious and the bed was comfortable.

The entrance is about a 5 min walk in the old village, but the locals didn’t bother me. However, it’s a 15min walk to the souk and the people can be a little aggressive trying to disorient you and hire them as a guide. The hotel does offer guided escorts to the souk, I’m assuming for a fee. However, I like to explore alone.

The breakfast is delightful and they give you a big array of food for each table. Everything was fresh and the staff provided excellent service throughout.

Also be mindful that it is an intimate hotel and you can hear everything in the foyer.

My only complaint is about the tours offered through the hotel. It was a last minute trip for me and I made a few requests for information about the tours to the waterfalls and the manager refused to provide it over email or WhatsApp. They give you prices by euro and charge the hotel conversion rate. I was there for a few days so decided to book without getting the itinerary and the manager told me don’t worry they will take you to the mountains and hikes to the waterfalls. Honestly, the waterfalls is underwhelming and it was overpriced guided shopping trip of stops along the way. The food included in the tour was horrible. Best to do a group tour at a quarter of the price at the hotel.

Overall, if the manager would have been transparent about the tour, it would have been a different rating. He was also confrontational when I returned because I mentioned to the driver it was significantly over priced. But I already paid and didn’t want to discuss further. The walk to the souk can be sketchy for foreigners, but the hotel is able to arrange a taxi and staff will escort you to the entrance.

An absolutely beautiful Riad. The service was impeccable and I honestly felt so welcomed every-time the staff interacted with me. The hygiene level was outstanding and the food quality was exceptional. Hisham and Ali were so delightful and Hisham even helped me book some restaurants and kept in contact me with via WhatsApp. The stay was far better than what I had ever imagined and it’s the perfect place if you’re looking for someone quite and as there are only 5 rooms available in this riad. Spectacular once again and I will be back

I think you should stay in a Riad on your first trip to Morocco. I loved the winding path to get to the Riad. The staff came out to the car received us and guided us to our stay. Personal attention to our dinner with excellent butters and breads other varied things to taste. Breakfast the same thing. Personal attention and varied items to taste to get the full experience of Morocco

Very beautiful riad. Staff is excellent and feels like family. It can be difficult to get a taxi at times. Mehdi the manager is very involved and easily accessible. A perfect place to stay at for special occasions.
