Le Riad Monceau

Le Riad Monceau

8/10 Good
"The staff was lovely, truly above and beyond! The room was nice and clean! Was a bit disappointed to learn the rooms were right next to where the restaurant/jazz performances take place - people were eating dinner sometimes right outside our room. That would be my only disclaimer - otherwise great property!"
