A nice home away from home

Riad Ajmal is a comfortable and convenient home away from home. I really like the cleanliness of the space and the terrace. My room was very spacious and nicely decorated. The staff were polite and friendly the only thing I think needs improving is the breakfast options some days it was good but other days it felt like the food had been prepared the day before and not so fresh.

Perfect intro into Medina Riad living in Marrakech

Nice location, on a quiet part with access to be deeper into the medina. The staff is really friendly & so welcoming. Rooms are typical size for a small riad, comfortable beds and good water pressure which is sometimes hard to find! Would come back for sure, a nice place to stay and a reasonable price.

Riad within the Medina walls

Not a great start when the expected transfer to the Riad wasn’t at the airport so had to get a taxi. The Riad itself was great but the management of the place was ‘relaxed’ to say the least. Stayed for 3 nights. No breakfast on day one, our room wasn’t turned down during our stay and the rooftop terrace was in need of a clean/tidy. Didn’t spoil our trip but the Riad could be great with a little more attention to detail.

Loved our stay and especially the staff!

Myself and a friend stayed in Riad Ajmal for a week this August and had the most amazing time. The neighbourhood feels very safe and quiet. It’s peaceful even though it’s only a walk away from the centre of the city. Our room was a good size and lovely, the A/C was amazing and we especially loved the pool too for cooling down when it got so hot. Our three main hosts made us feel so comfortable in the riad, extremely safe and well looked after. Every morning we were treated to large breakfast in the courtyard by Ahmad, even when we had to leave very early for day trips. He was really friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Fatima cooked amazing food for us- the best tagine we had the entire week (and that’s saying something). And Bety was just an all round star, taking care of us, welcoming us and sharing some of her culture with us. Our relationship with the riad staff and time spent in the riad made our marrrakech trip so special- unlike any other holiday. We would definitely recommend to anyone and we can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful Riad, perfect service

In the old city, around 10 mins walk from the main square, and in a quiet neighborhood on the new town/station/Airport side of the Medina. The hotel is a island of calm in a bustling town. Rooms are traditionally decorated and comfortable. Lovely roof terrace with a view of the Koutoubia mosque minaret. Mustafa the manager and the rest of the staff could not be more welcoming and helpful. Service was excellent. Highly recommended.

Excellent traditional Riad!

We loved our stay at Riad Ajmal. It is a beautiful, traditional Riad... a sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech! I particularly liked its location. The Riad is down a rabbit warren of little streets, which is exactly what we wanted, a real experience of the Medina. It is also perfectly located for the souks, restaurants, and within walking distance of the main square and the Koutoubia Mosque. It is also situated very near a taxi rank, which made all our transfers and trips out easy. Mustafa and Bushran (sorry for the spelling) were perfect hosts and made the whole stay very comfortable. The breakfasts were delicious, especially the pancakes, yum! Would definitely recommend and would love to go back one day.

Underwhelming

Chose a Riad to stay in on our second visit to Marrakech but unfortunately it didn't help make our trip memorable.Things got off to a bad start when there was no pick up from the airport despite booking it weeks in advance and sending a reminder email the week before.Repeated calls to the Riad went unanswered until a call back to say 'Had you booked?'!! Waited 45 minutes in the end and to make it worse, there was no reference to it or an apology when we arrived.Considering there was only one other person there not sure how you lose track.Free Wi-Fi is included however, signal was only there when you first enter the room.We had booked a double room which turned out to be twin mattresses joined together and one half was very uncomfortable with squeaky springs.The towels and robe were scratchy and also the lighting in the rooms/bathroom overall was very dim. Breakfast was simple but the exact same thing every day,despite there being numerous bakeries in the local area.It would have been nice to have a different type of bread or some pastries.Some positives- the 2 female staff members are very friendly and helpful,especially as we hardly came across the manager.The place is nice and quiet compared to the hectic streets in the surrounding area and not difficult to find once you get your bearings.It is approximately a 15 minute walk to the main square and there are many shops and cafes along the way.The coffee served at breakfast was very good. Overall,not going to return

Medina Riad

This medina Riad is well placed for exploring the souks and old town. If you are looking for an authentic Riad experience this is perfect- the staff are very helpful and accommodating. We were swept up in the hustle of the medina and went off early one morning without telling them we wouldn't be around for breakfast- only to find out the next day they had been waiting for us all morning! This is an example of the kindness we experienced- and also a note to future travellers, if you won't be there for breakfast let them know! Def recommend staying at Ajmal.

We have visited Riad Ajmal in december 2019 and we had a great experience. The service and employees are excellent. So kind and helpful. Our host, Nouredinne, was 24/7 available and arranged everything we needed. During our taxi drive from the airport to the riad, we find the city overwhelming and almost a little bit scary. So hectic. But trust me, this is only in first sight. Our host picked us up at the taxi drop off and guided us to the streets to the riad.
