Lovely traditional riad which we loved but it was very hot in there and far from the main areas with no free bus shuttle as promised. Next time we’d probably stay in Rabat rather than rely on taxis / 30 minutes walk to the beach / boat. Enjoyed our stay though thankyou

Place was a bit dated and could do with being refreshed in some areas. Basic amenities, but clean and fine to stay in for a few nights. Staff were very friendly, and the breakfast laid on was excellent with a nice selection available. The Riad is in a quiet and safe area - very easy to find; within 30 minutes walk of the marina (where you can also easily get a rowboat over to the promenade in Rabat). Cars can also get very close to the Riad, so can easily get a taxi if needed.

This Riad is a beautiful traditional Moroccan home with guest rooms located off open air courtyards that are weatherproof but airy.

The extended family who run the business is lovely and although their English is somewhat limited, they always figured out what I was asking and made every effort to assist. For instance, I was able to access the kitchen to use their kettle and get ice from the freezer.

The location is connected to the Medina and adjacent to the large Mosque. The only sound that penetrates from outside the Riad is the call to prayer.

If you are looking for a traditional Moroccan experience, I would highly recommend the Riad Dar Jabador. This is not a hotel. Upstairs rooms offer more privacy but there are no lifts.

They seemed to have hot water for showers in the evening but not in the morning.

It is probably not the cleanest Riad, there was an awful smell in the room. But with its rich history and the cordiality and the warm hospitality of the owner and his son compensated for it.

This was my third stay at Riad Dar Jabador. My daughter, who speaks Arabic well, was with me for the second stay two years ago. I messaged about 18 hours before my arrival this week that I was sorry to be arriving so late. When i arrived, after midnight, the owner talked about how they had been reminiscing about our last visit, how much she had enjoyed getting to know my daughter. We love these people, who have become like family. I also love the location, that it's in a quiet, traditional neighborhood, that one can easily walk down to the shore.

If you value cultural experiences as represented in this Riad's architecture (300 years old), neighborhood and people, then this place has you in mind. Well preserved aged architecture like this is only possible with family history/legacy that was mindful enough to have passed this home down from generation to generation in a desirable location. The ocean is walking distance, and i also was able to visit the Oudayas Kasbah, and the Hassan tower. The family was warm and inviting with top notch hospitality. I highly recommend staying here!

A wonderful family run Riad close to everything

Stayed in the Zafran suite on top floor, felt very welcome from the moment we arrived. Family is great, super helpful with directions, maps, suggestions of activities.. not just for Rabat. Riad is well situated near local square, markets, beach, bank/cash point. A few minutes from fresh bread and markets. Room clean and spacious. Lots of hot water, fridge. Enjoy Salé from here or catch the small row boat 7MAD for 3 people 1 way across to Rabat and the Kasbah, souks there.. we were able to store bags on last day and were kindly made tea with cake at 4pm just before we left for our flight home. A big thank you to father, son, daughter for allowing guests to your beautiful 300yr old Moroccan home, breakfast fit for a king and freshly made daily, coffee was good and Moroccan tea always did the job.. would like to come back one day.. cheeeers

Not a good location

This riad is a long way from Rabat, in what appeared to be a rough neighborhood.
It's a very long walk down to the river opposite Rabat.
I booked as other reviews said it was great. I can only assume that they were on acid.
The riad itself is very old, and very traditional if that's what your looking for.

Pleasant stay + lovely family. Breakfast in the riad was very calming. I was provided with instructions and a map of how to tour the city, as well as finding places more catered towards my interests both in Rabat and Salé. The minute or so row boat ride to Rabat cost 2.5 dh. I also had a home cooked dinner here, which was a nice way to try things I’d probably never try, and a nice way to not have to think about dinner. Obviously, the riad is also beautiful.

An absolute gem of a place!

From the first entry into Riad, the key feature is the impression of past grandeur, antiques around but above all, a family feel from the time we entered. We felt immediately comfortable in the presence of the owners (Ahmed, his daughter and little baby granddaughter). Our room was on the top floor (no lift being 300-400-year-old property) but Ahmed helped us with taking the luggage up (despite being in his 60s) and explained everything. Our suite was comfortable (sitting are, two bedrooms and bathroom), nicely decorated. The roof is high with plenty of windows. It could do with one or two wardrobes (for hanging and tidying clothes). We did not even switch the TV on as no time.
The property is in Sale which is different town than Rabat the property is in old part but I loved it as I felt so homely here. The key thing that make our stay so comfortable and enjoyable was the host. They are so helpful and go extremely out of the way to genuinely help. There was an issue with hot water due to faulty battery, and Ahmed just sorted it outwithin minutes. He gave us all the information about local sightseeing. The terrace is beautiful and relaxing. Ahmed and his daughter helped us with local Hamam/Massage which was absolutely authentic (not rip-off like in resorts sometimes). We used their kitchen like our own and shared recipes.
One can not go wrong with this property as long as you go with mindset that it is a traditional Riad and not a resort and it is completely a family affair.

It is conveniently located and close to the ocean. We walked a short distance and took a row boat to Rabat from Sale, which costs about 25 cents and takes about 5 minutes. It is a fun thing to do. You will love these people! Ahmad and Koutar, husband and daughter, are jewels, as is Bahija. This was our second time staying with them, and we look forward to our next time.

TRAVELERS BE WARE

Room is dirty - floor black in areas from build up.
Bathroom had mold in corners of the sink
Beds are hard like sleeping on the floor - I really wanted to say something positive, however with the lack of directions in getting to the location and the mafia like practice of Luring in tourists through the congested streets to a parking lot controlled by what appeared to be the whole town of Marrakech and forced to pay 50 denar to park and 200 denar for the guild to our Riad
After refusing to pay - I felt threatened and after finally paying- I was surprised (or not) to see that when I had expressed Ann early departure that a car was behind my car (i was the only one ironically) when I asked to have it moved I was again charged to also help the two gentlemen push the car from the ass end barely out of the way to move my vehicle- paying once again.

It appeared the whole town was involved like a mafia ran system.

For this reason and the fear of my life along with my wife - I truly disappointed and warn ant travelers to avoid this area as you will be scammed for certain - if not possibly harmed (personal property or self)

AVOID AT ALL COST

This one is personal

During our visit in Rabat, my family and I stayed in Dar Jabador, a Riad run by a moroccan family of four: a father, a mother, a son, and a daughter. Mehdi and Khouta(?) greeted us on our arrival with warmth and the most genuine smiles. We were refreshed with homemade cookies and Moroccan tea, in their gorgeous family room, where we were briefed about the history of the building – a Andalucian style property of over 300 years. Our suite, which we were later taken to, was on the second floor. It included a living area, a master bedroom, a secondary bedroom, and a spacious full bath. The master bedroom was gigantic; all of the main rooms had high ceilings, and were decorated meticulously. Both beds were double. Everything was clean and cozy. Outside was a beautiful rooftop terrace. In the morning, delicious Moroccan breakfast was prepared by the daughter and mother (whom I only met briefly due to language barrier) and served in nice dining sets to us. The entire Riad to me was like a museum, as every piece of décor and collection in it was worth gazing at.
The hosts always made sure that we had everything during our stay. But what overshadowed “everything” were the hosts themselves. They were all gregarious, charming, and objectively easy-on-the-eyes. They exuberated passion and ingenuity as we exchanged cultures and knowledge. And such quality of theirs was so uplifting, and almost healing as I felt. I presumed it must be the power of Moroccan hospitality.

Great connections by car/taxi. You can easily go to the centre, train station, Rabat or to the airport from this riad.

It's a bit out of the way from everything so if you like to explore by foot, be prepared to walk!

This had to be the most friendly and welcoming riad we have stayed in. The family gave us lots of tips about the area. Made us feel at home

Safe House in Sale

Like being a guest in someone's house. Personnel couldn't be friendlier or more accommodating. Aesthetically captivating. Arguably best feature no TV!

Owner and his family are very friendly and treated us like family. The bathroom in our room was very small and could have been cleaner. Overall it was a good stay.

Beautiful place!

What we loved: 1) Mint tea reception upon arrival 2) Very friendly staff 3) Very comfy beds and clean room 4) 300-year-old beautiful, very well-kept house 5) Great wifi 6) Help with printing boarding passes and getting taxi 7) Easy check-in and check-out 8) Lovely rooftop terrace
The area surrounding is pretty off the beaten path with not much to see, but the main drag (about a 15 minute walk) is aflutter with locals by 6 p.m. or so, which was cool and interesting to us.

A very enjoyable stay....felt like our second home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Riad Dar Jabador. The experience was like staying with an extended family where we were well looked after.

The small kind touches, like being given a lift to the train station for our trip to Fes and Casabkanca....the delicious evening meals and the conversations with the family in the evening made us feel as if it was our second home.

Thank you to the lovely family for your kindness and hospitality. It made our visit to Morocco memorable.

Lovely family and lovely Riad

We really enjoyed meeting the whole family at the Riad, and having dinner made for us after our late arrival from Marrakech. Loved staying there, would recommend it.

Riad Stay

The stay at this Riad was excellent, the family that operated the home was very polite, hospitable and helpful with advice on getting around the location. I highly recommend staying at this RIad!

Outstanding

had the most amazing stay in Riad Dar Jabador. The house is a treasure with high ornate ceilings. The rooms are all well maintained and clean. The house is well known in the area and if you are lost in the medina most people around there are able to help you with directions as they know the Riad - it is 300 year old house.
The best part of it is the family. On arrival I was given a refreshing mint tea and home made biscuits. The daughter (sorry I forget her name) gave me a map and instructions on what to visit in the medina and how to get there. When I was leaving I asked the owner (again I forget his name sorry) where I could get a blue taxi to the station from but instead he took my bags put them in his car and drove me to the station. A perfect send off from a really outstanding and hospitable family who went out of their way to make my stay comfortable.
Highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a nice home to stay in.

The best anyone could ask for!

This riad was incredible! Although it was over 300 years old it has been maintained very well. Some of the original tile was still visible and just incredible. Ahmed the owner and his daughter seemed like they were old friends or family and treated us like we were the most special guests they ever had. You can tell the owner loves his riad, is very proud of his riad, and he puts all his resources back into the property. I love the fact it was a smaller 4 room riad made it feel like staying at a home instead of some hotel. Take it from someone who stays over 100 days a year in hotels and on the road, this riad is highly recommended over any 5 star hotel!

Super beautiful and clean Riad with helpful stuff

It was an amazing Riad that belongs to 300 years ago. The owner was the father and the son that they were super helpful. The son was very polite and he gave a map of Rabat and describe all the places I wanted to visit and he gave me new suggestions. Riad was so beautiful and my room was big and clean. The breakfast was breathtaking. I stayed one night there and I will definitely stay in Riad Dar Jabador for more days in future.
