Traditional hotel in a lovely area of Meknes. Comfortable beds and climate control, television, and a microwave oven. Well-equipped bathroom with walk-in showers. Unbeatable and excellent location of the place - 5 minutes walk from bus station. Simply no complaints, really nice stay.

Wow, what a value for my money! The room at this beautiful riad was spacious with high ceilings and even had a separate sitting area. The central location was perfect for exploring the old medina.
Morning meal could use a little more variety, but still delicious.

During my Christmas stay, I absolutely loved the warm welcome I received with a hot mint tea upon arrival. The owner, Rachid, was incredibly friendly and helpful in suggesting nearby attractions. The location of the hotel was perfect, as we were able to easily explore all the interesting sights. the breakfast served at the hotel was amazing, with plenty of delicious options and mouthwatering cakes. The authentic feel of the hotel, along with the multi-level terrace that offered a great view, made it even more enjoyable.
One minor drawback was that the bed was a bit too hard for my liking, although my boyfriend didn't mind. Another small issue was figuring out how to get hot water, as it turns out it was located on the left side.

Being disabled, I appreciated the helpfulness of the staff in providing a map of the city, recommending a restaurant, and giving tips for sightseeing. the small but lovely room and the beautifully decorated rooftop terrace were enjoyable. the breakfast was superb, and the riad itself was well-maintained and had a nice layout.
Felt well taken care of, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay.

our second stay in meknes was even better than the first. the riad we picked, benchekroun, went above and beyond to make our holiday relaxing. the manager warmly welcomed us with mint tea and the dinner and breakfast served were excellent. the antique-style room was comfortable and we had ample hot water for showers. an excellent value for money!
Street parking was a hassle.

my partner and i had an amazing time at this charming riad. the owners were incredibly friendly and made us feel like family. the rooftop terrace was a highlight, perfect for relaxing and taking in the views. the location was ideal, just a short walk from the bustling square. a wonderful stay that surpassed our expectations.
Small and dark room.

We stayed at a beautiful riad in Meknes called Riad Benchekroun. the elegant old building had a traditional decor that added to its charm. the manager, Rachid, was kind and courteous, and the cook showcased their talent with delicious meals. We had arranged for a driver to pick us up from the airport and a supper to be prepared for us upon arrival, which made our stay even more convenient. the rooms were quiet, clean, and equipped with good toiletries. the location was perfect, with main attractions within close proximity. the staff was helpful and made us feel welcome throughout our stay. We would definitely choose to stay here again!
Nothing all good! 😄.

Located in a quiet spot, the hotel is easy to find. The architecture is impressive, and the staff, particularly the women in the kitchen, are wonderful. The manager is helpful and provides valuable recommendations. The breakfast on the rooftop terrace is delicious, and the dinner options, such as the lemon chicken tajine and beef almond apricot tajine, are unforgettable. a great experience.

this medieval riad in the middle of the beautiful medieval medina of Meknes is magic and one of the most special places I have ever stayed. fantastic rooftop terrace where we had our dinners and extremely helpful and friendly people working in the riad.
Parking was a challenge.

I had a wonderful stay at Riad Benchekroun. The riad is beautifully decorated with unique and stylish interior. The plants and decorations create a relaxing and welcoming ambiance. It is a peaceful and quiet place, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The host, Rachi, has great connections with restaurants and taxis, making it convenient to explore the city. I highly recommend taking advantage of the private taxi service offered by Rachi for a hassle-free trip to Volubilis and Monley Idriss. The breakfast at the riad was delicious and the staff was helpful and friendly. it was a luxurious and comfortable experience.
I recommend this hotel.
