It was a convenient place as it was walking distance to the beach area, castle and the souk (shopping areas). Different experience as it was in the old city (medina). Staff was very nice. Food was good. The breakfast was excellent. It was clean. Room was good. Parking was not very convenient. Had to wait a while to find parking in the public parking area where we had to pay daily parking. The shower area in the bathroom is a little aged, could do with an upgrade. Overall we enjoyed our stay there, would recommend to others.

Le Riad Kalaa a été notre préféré de tous les Riads que nous avons visités au Maroc. Élégant, propre, confortable, à proximité/distance de marche de tout ce qu’il y a à voir. Le personnel est exceptionnel! Ils nous ont recommandé un guide touristique extraordinaire: Said. Il nous a fait un tour complet de Rabat et nous a fait tomber en amour avec la ville. Le Riad est magnifique et le personnel tout autant.

Good public areas but rooms are unsatisfactory
The staff at this Riyad are very friendly and helpful, especially Rania. Alas, the room, itself was not so great, both in design/location, and in the level of upkeep. We stayed in an "oriental suite", of which there are 4 in the property. Each one is just off the main courtyard and the shortcomings were (i) There are no windows in the bedroom which makes it very dark and stuffy, (ii) the bathroom could do with a good renovation -- there is mold/damp on the walls and (iii) while there are small windows in the bathroom these open directly onto the courtyard which is not great for privacy and (iv) the furnishings are of lower quality than a Riad of this rating/price should have. On the positive side the courtyard is beautiful and the breakfast was substantial and tasty. And the staff was friendly as mentioned.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Advantages: The room contains beautiful designs and huge. The ceiling is high and fancy. The cleaning products are in good conditions. The people who worked at Jan 2nd - great. Disadvantages: We waited over 10 minutes to check in - we had to make self check in, because workers were busy with their business, such as cleaning wine cups and hosting some else. Our room located in the first floor, which means people who had lunch or dinner were able to see us easily to walk in ( feel like we are living at a Zoo). Moreover, many sensitive holes next to the windows and doors at room, you were able to see someone who was drinking and laughing outside throughout those lines and holes. One of hole was not fully covered in our shower room’ window when we checked in, which obviously ruined the privacy. We requested a worker to fix the opened line in our shower window, a lady who wore glasses frame acted unhappy and unwilling attitude, then she managed another worker to fix our room with a poor tape... yes, TAPE.... covered the window.... otherwise, musics displayed until 11pm, please do not book if you like to sleep early or you plan to wake up early at morning. Finally , No enough hot water to take shower for two people........ Overall, the worse living experience ever .......

Stayed here for 4 nights in Rabat as a relaxing getaway with a bit of a cultural aspect. This hotel is a gem! They looked after our every need from helping book a tour to Fez and food and wine during our stay. Bottled water was always available. They went above and beyond in everyway. They had a staff member meet us at the parking lot and guide us to the location in the medina which meant we had no trouble finding it. Only thing to note is that being close to many mosques, you will be awoken @ 6-7 for the call to prayer. So bring earplugs!
