A perfectly restored 17th-century medina house with a standout rooftop breakfast terrace and the best reviews of any Meknes riad here.

Dar Meknes Tresor occupies a 17th-century house in the medina's Touta quarter, restored into what reviewers consistently call one of Meknes's best-kept riads. The seven rooms range from a family suite sleeping six down to a standard double; all have private bathrooms with rainfall showerheads and air conditioning, though the deluxe patio-facing rooms are noticeably roomier than the entry-level double.

The rooftop terrace is where it earns its reputation — breakfast is served there each morning and named repeatedly as a highlight, alongside staff who go out of their way with directions and recommendations. Two honest caveats: like most converted dars, interior walls are thin enough to hear neighbouring rooms, and the property sits down an unmarked medina alley that first-timers often need help finding.
