Guest Ratings & Reviews

Real Guest Experiences & Ratings

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests consistently praise Riad Xo's beautiful design, with many describing it as modern and clean, a truly relaxing venue. Its location proves ideal, placing guests within a short walking distance of attractions, with the convenience of being steps away from the souks. The spacious rooms are often noted, and the rooftop provides a great spot for relaxation. However, some guests have mentioned that the outdoor space feels a bit small when the riad is full.

communal area excellent breakfast safe neighborhood sweet owner

The riad includes lots of communal sitting areas and an excellent breakfast. the riad is located in a quiet and safe neighborhood. i loved the aesthetic. Every corner was unique and picture perfect. the owner, stephano, was very sweet and ensured i was looked after.

i found the space to be very small. it wasn't quite enough for all of the riad's clients.
