Riad in Meknes
My boyfriend and I stayed at Riad Felloussia for 3 nights in June, during a month long tour of Morocco. Meknes is a very quaint place to stay, and a gentle introduction to Moroccon culture. Riad Felloussia was the most beautiful Riad that we stayed at during our time in Morocco and nothing was too much trouble for our hosts. We were met from the main square in Meknes and taken down the winding alleyways to the Riad - very atmospheric! We dipped down inside a little wooden door and could not believe our eyes - simply gorgeous!
Unique Quality: We were shown to our room, a split level suite with huge wooden doors, our own bathroom and a Moroccon lounge. We had a breakfast every morning of Moroccon pancakes and honey, freshly squeezed orange juice and coffee on the shaded terrace - fantastic! We were very taken with the other residents at the Riad too - Pistache the cat and a little tortoise! We also opted to have an evening meal in the Riad and were asked what we would like - my boyfriend rather adventurously opted for camel tagine, whilst I played it safe with citron chicken! Later that evening we were shown to the dining area and were surprised and delighted to find the room filled with candles and soft music playing and we were waited on hand and foot - very special. We were sorry to leave!
