Except for a single overnight stay in an hotel in Midelt, we stayed in Riads throughout our holiday. They were all very charming and very different to any other accommodation we have stayed in.
The Riads only had a few rooms each and the owners (mostly French) were most welcoming and helpful. I would recommend them all.
The only thing wrong with our 200-year old Riad in Rabat was its close proximity to the largest mosque in the city. The pre-dawn call to prayer was an unwelcome surprise.

Jurgen was a most genial host - thanks by the way for proving that some Moroccan wines are excellent!
We had superb food here!
I am not sure why this saddle was set up in our bedroom, but obviously I had to try it!
The room was decorated in the style of a Berber tent in the Sahara.
Ann watched while I had a dip in the pool.
Breakfast and dinner were served in the courtyard.

Which is more comfortable - bed or hammock?
If you are staying in Skoura, I would well recommend this riad. Don't try to find it in the dark! It is set some 4Km from the road on a track marked with coloured boulders - easy to miss your way at night.
Ann next to the "guard" dog. It was very good at begging for food when we had breakfast in the courtyard.
