Absolutely loved my stay at Yar Danis! Nahima, Adil, and the receptionist were incredibly kind, friendly, and truly caring. They made me feel completely at home—from the warm welcome to their thoughtful support throughout my stay. The breakfast was absolutely amazing—fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented every morning. The whole place has a cozy, welcoming vibe, and the hospitality was truly above and beyond. Just 100 meters from the heart of the city market, it’s the perfect location. If you're looking for an above-average place with real heart, this is 100% a great choice. Thank you Nahima, Adil, and Mohammed for making my trip so special!

The breakfast and room were both great, the location in the Medina was perfect, close to the main street with all the restaurants, cafes and shops but on an alley so it wasn't noisy. Short walk to the beach. The room was very clean and pretty. The best thing about the stay was the staff (especially Adel whom I met most often was such an amazing host)! They were all so kind, welcoming, and helpful with everything. I came back for a second time during my vacation and will come back next time as well. Thank you so much! Highly recommended.

Everything was great, nothing negative to say!

If you are looking for a true Moroccan experience in the heart of the medina, this is your place. Don't be alarmed when you arrive, as this Riad is in a small back alley surrounded by flowers and plants. The first thing you will notice, next to the welcoming staff, will be the dining area, the center of the riad. This open terrace goes through the entire building and has an opening at the top, flooding the Riad with light and cool breeze. The rooms are small and only separated by a small door from the terrace. This might lead to waking it up in the morning because birds fly through the terrace. The room is dominated by a large bed. The remaining furniture is functional and has the typical wear and tear. Don't expect any modern amenities. Hence I would recommend only a few nights or making it your base if you want to explore. If you want to relax a bit you may want to go to the open roof and enjoy outside dining. The breakfast is nice and fair in terms of pricing. It's freshly prepared for you in the morning. Wifi is readily available but spotty on the roof.

This Riad is not for you if you are looking for a typical Western European-style hotel with modern amenities. The rooms are small and dominated by a large bed. The furniture is old and functional and if you are concerned about privacy, the doors to your room and bathroom are tiny. Additionally, if you are bigger or having issues with climbing stairs, this might also not be for you, since the staircases are narrow and steep.

Dar Yanis is a wonderful place located in the Medina and only 15 minutes walk from Rabat-Ville. You're close enough to the markets and action but just far enough away for a good night's sleep. The Dar is in great condition and very comfortable. The intricate tiling and fixtures still looking great. The staff were extremely friendly and the breakfast was pretty decent. The sun-terrace is also great for relaxing with sunbeds and tables.

I would have liked my own front door key to come and go as I please (but the staff will let you in at any time).

I spent +10 Days in Morocco. This Riad is the only one that I really like. The location was excellent, just in the middle of the Madina. Staff was really nice, friendly. We were served everything that we need. The breakfast is like you don’t need to go out to have a Moroccan breakfast, everything was great about it. Also thanks and loves to the Lady, who prepared the breakfast. I was really sorry, that we did a mistake and booked this Riad only one day, and moved to another Riad for two days. If I visit Rabat again, definitely here will be my Riad to stay.

There were a small hole beneath the A/C. And I saw some ants. I used my parfume and sprayed it, the problem was solved. However, this problem should be solved.

It was near the Medina and near to the parking (5 minutes walk from BAB AL HAD parking. The place was clean, everyone was cooperative. The staff in the morning is amazing. They took care of us better than a 5 star hotel. Everyone loved our baby (she is one year old). The staff arranged yogurt for her and they were playing with here while we were having breakfast. You can’t find better place than this in Rabat.

I found this place perfect for the stay. No complaints

Staff were very accommodating going out of their way to help us with anything from directions to where to get the best targine and that was pretty awesome considering our French was very limited and they didn't speak English.

If we had to be critical of anything it would be the ensuite entry doors made the area a bit restrictive.

Firstly, the location was great - just off the main street. Moreover, we were given very detailed directions from the Owner, so it was easy to find this riad. Although we arrived pretty late (10pm), there were no issues with check-in. The whole stay was pleasant, the room was clean, but the biggest highlight was the breakfast: it was massive and the lady who served it always greeted us with a smile. We had absolutely no issues with leaving the luggage after check-out. We felt very welcome, as the atmosphere was relaxed.

There were no major things we didn't like, but just two possible improvements we noticed: We were not given the key to the main door, so we had to ring the door each time. There were no problems with it, but just felt like we were disturbing sb (may be personal feeling only ;) ). It would be easier to pay with card if the extra commission wasn't charged, so just make sure you have enough cash available.

The property was really lovely a great little roof terrace and lovely breakfast rooms, the bedroom was one the main floor which meant it was a bit noisy in the morning. Bed was comfy. The shining star was the staff!!! Adil was so kind to me helped me with finding a sim and loading data onto it. I felt he went above and beyond for me! I also was able to arrange a private taxi form the airport to the accommodation for the same cost as a standard taxi which made me feel much safer!

A bit noisy in the morning from the birds (but not avoidable!)
