Hôtel Euphoriad

Looking to stay in the ultimate luxury with all the modern conveniences? Euphoriad, in the heart of the medina of Rabat provides guest with exactly that – comfort, style, and refinement for today’s world. A culmination of the partnership between French, American and Moroccan artists, this Riad was decorated and designed under the leadership of Chafiq Kabbaj, a Moroccan architect. Staying true to the building history and tradition were important to the renovation, yet adding modern amenities and adapting for contemporary life were the focus. And it shows. Euphoriad is a perfect blend of old and new, and a delightful place to stay while visiting Morocco. I was a solo traveler, stopping by Euphoriad for a single night. I checked in to a Deluxe room, which was the perfect accommodation for my overnight trip. Euphoriad has three Deluxe rooms, each named after a different feminine flower, and the furniture and artwork decorating the rooms are mostly crafted by Moroccan designers. The room felt modern, but the traditional colors and décor were appropriately used to pay homage to the riad’s locale. One of the most persuading reasons to stay here is the terrace pool/Jacuzzi. The rooftop terrace looks out upon the medina of Rabat, La Tour Hassan, the Mausoleum. It’s cathartic. Time will fly by as you relax, taking in the sights and sounds of Rabat from the rooftop, enjoying the natural sunshine. There’s even a bar with which to purchase a refreshment. Overall, there’s not a single reason I can think of NOT to stay at Euphoriad. In fact, I enjoyed the service, the décor, and the great location so much, I wished my trip was longer! I will definitely be booking here again, and highly recommend Euphoriad to any traveler in Morocco.

Overall & location: Beautifully restored 100 year old Riad of a previous Pasha (judge) of Rabat. Excellent location within the Medina and easy walking to all sites (except Chellah fort). There are 9 rooms/suites - 5 within the main Riad and another 4 in the seamless extension, each named and themed after a flower. Room: Narjiss on the first floor was superb. Large room with lovely seating area and well equipped bath with shower, safe & storage. Cons: Some very minor noise issues and need the central window blind to be lowered for privacy when internal lights are on. Also, no usb points for easy device charging. Finally, except for the welcome bottle of water, all other water is part of the minibar & chargeable. Breakfast & dining: Very adequate continental breakfast and option for omelettes (though this was not offered on day one). Dinner at the Riad is expensive but worth it. A set menu of 5 lovely salads, choice of 5 mains & 4 desserts, freshly prepared to order by in-house chef Amina. Cons: The rooftop seating area is a bit cosy.

To be honest am an only partial visitor at the Riad, using the pool facility and the restaurant. The pool experience is magnificent as it’s always empty and you feel the privilege of all booked for you, the staff is very helpful and kind. However my experience with the breakfast considering the price was not as expected. The coffee was survey without sugar, the eggs were also served without salt. I liked the touch of the fruit being served at breakfast, but generally I will rate the breakfast 4 out of 10.

Wonderful Riad. We stayed in the Top rated riads in a few cities and this was our favourite one out of them all. It’s not a traditionally designed Riad, lots of modern touches and technology. Super high ceilings and old historical photos of the Riad and Rabat. Only complaint: Breakfast was average, no hot food but we did eat late at 11am.

A wonderful small riad with great food and amazing service. Rooftop pool and dinner was icing on the cake. Rooms are really terrific.

Stunningly artistic and breathtaking! Unique, exquisite features with a mixture of the past and present. Amazing art and architecture.

Very nice, and quiet. Rooftop has a small swimming pool.

Good👍 …
