Dar Shâan

After travelling through Morocco and experiencing the amazing quality, care and hospitality at all the riads we stayed at, we were very disappointed. Little care on arrival, bed linen felt grubby, concerns with security of room and poor service.

This was our first stay in a traditional dar, and it did not disappoint! Lovely rooms and very helpful staff. If we return to Rabat, I would definitely stay here again! They also organized a city tour for us with Asmae and she was extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend a few hours with.

Loved the ambience, the welcoming helpful staff, of this small hotel in an excellent position, with relatively easy access from parking area. Charming staff, spacious room. delicious breakfast of super sweet fresh OJ, light cheese omelette, orange slices with cinnamon, cake and good coffee.

Sincerely friendly staff, excellent breakfast, dinner was not possible, fully booked, one night stay in a small classic room, everything was present, wifi, rooftop pool, beautifully decorated road, very close to everything. Surprisingly, its not a 4* hotel, it definitely deserves a 4* rating. Marvellous. Riad.

We stayed one night in Rabat in this very elegant riad located at the entrance to the medina near the Kasbah of Rabat that is exceptionally beautiful to visit, sits along the coast and offers fabulous views. I hadn’t realized that within it are also residences. The riad’s location is excellent with easy access to the medina, the boardwalk and the kasbah. Communications with the staff was seamless and the riad has an elevator to access upper floors, with the rooftop pool and terrace offering lovely views. It is well-appointed with quality materials throughout and comfortable bed. As with many riads they offer meals – our flight was too early to enjoy breakfast but dinner was tasty. They were really nice in providing us coffee in the room for the morning of our very early departure. Coordinating transport to the airport in Casablanca (3.45am) was seamless and timely. Really appreciated everyone. Thank you.

What a wonderful, beautiful and friendly Riad! Recently opened, this small (approx 10 rooms) hotel is on the edge of the Medina and close to the Kasbah. Rooms are very comfortable, diligently clean and the staff extend the Moroccan hospitality in abundance. The pool is cute, secluded, and the adjacent balconies offer rooftop views of the medina and (impressive to this foreign traveller) - offer a dramatic stage for hearing the call to prayer. The breakfast is plentiful, and if requested in advance they can offer a lunch and / or dinner. The food is great, the ambiance relaxed and gorgeous decor / architecture.
