Riad Atika Mek is very well maintained and decorated. It feels like you're staying in a friend's home. The host, Jacques is very attentive to guests while at the same time remaining unobtrusive. He is an interesting man with many stories and is always ready to give advice when asked. His wife, Atika is also very friendly. The location is fairly straightforward and not too far from the Bab Hissi (across from the museum). The roof is extensive and has many relaxing spots to sit and enjoy the view of the medina and surrounding hills.

Everything was perfect.

If you want to stay in a beautiful riad with warm and friendly hosts this is the perfect place. Staying in the riad is like staying in a palace. Everywhere is decorated with traditional crafts. The room is comfortable and the shower works great. The view from the terrace is exceptional. You can see the entire city and towns on the hillside. We enjoyed visiting with the hosts while eating a delicious breakfast. It was very hard to leave after an 8 night stay. I would love to return.

The most wonderful rooftop is here. We saw here a very impressive sunset while the storks decided to make their last flight before the night. Hundreds of them came by. This Riad is very original with the owners living next door. In the middle of the Medina. You can park the car outside the Medina at a parking place. And then walk 10 minutes to the Riad.

We had one room with a nasty smell. Which was difficult to solve although it was tried to make it better but without success and that makes it rather uncomfortable unfortunately. Meknes itself was under renovation so a lot was closed. They day that after a couple of months everything will be ready.

The property is located in the medina, so it’s very close to the main attractions. However, since it’s in one of the narrow alleys, it’s very silent at night for a good rest. The area is safe with families and kids playing around also at night. Our room was spacious and clean, and the riad itself is very fascinating. The owners are absolutely lovely and give you many information about Meknes and Morocco (from places to visit, to Morocco’s history, to where to eat and so on). It’s been an amazing stay for us!

Atika and her husband are very nice people. They truly welcome you to their home. Atika brought us to a hammam a and a shop when we asked for where to go, and even lent us her gloves and soap! So nice. And the ríad is sublime, a dream house!

It was all in all an excellent stay. If we had to say something that could improve, it would be the breakfast, because it was very basic (example, no fresh juice, and as fruits only mandarines when so many fruits are available in the market and are very cheap. Compared to the breakfasts in other riads it was disappointing for me). We had hot water only the first night we arrived. Also, no tips for visiting the city or maps are information is provided at your arrival/in your rooms, as well as no mint tea as attention.

What a find. This Riad is absolutely gorgeous. A labyrinth of beautiful little spaces. The terrace is so nice and gives great 360° views. Jacques and Atika are lovely people and very welcoming. Perfect location in the Medina of Meknes which is a city well worth visiting. Much less touristy than others, but plenty of charm. Stay here. You will not regret it.

There are many things, which have made my stay unforgettable. I very much appreciate the time Jack and Atika took to welcome us, and tell us about the history of the riad. The rooms were great, each one coming with its own character. The breakfast in the morning is served with much attention and care. The view from the roof terrace over Meknes is amazing. Never in my life will I forget the storks that danced in the sky above the riad, and the sound of the call to prayer, from five mosques, that enveloped us at the end of the afternoon, just before the sun set!

Everything was good. I have no recommendations. Just keep everything as it is!

I loved this Riad! It is located in the Medina so it is easiest to find using GPS and asking for help within the Medina. It is a beautiful place, very traditional with an outstanding terrassa! I can't say enough good things about the owners. They were extremely welcoming, friendly and helpful!! I enjoyed the breakfast very much. I appreciated the recommendations that Jacque gave me, including the Restaurant Aisha which was close by. It served outstanding food! Thank you for being such gracious hosts!!

The Riad is a little gem inside the medina, but GPS location is correct and is easy to find down a narrow alley. Jack and Atika are great hosts and speak fluent English. Jack is a mine of information and really helpful. The decor and furniture of the whole riad is wonderful and the terrace on multiple tiers simply spectacular with so great views. Excellent breakfast, room and bathroom very clean, all amenities working perfectly. All in all a place that I'd recommend hands down, few minutes walking from Place Lalla Aouda parking.

First, jack, the place owner was great. Very kind and helpful. He made us feeling at home. Very delicious breakfast. We arrived quite late and Jack waited. Very recommend place for visiting Meknes and the medina.

Guests should consider that arriving the riad with big suitcases is tough, since it requires 10 minutes walking in the crowded streets of the Medina.
