Good location, basic comfort.

We mainly booked this Riad due to the location, as it is walking distance to everything there is to see in downtown Marrakesh. Pictures prior to booking made it look fantastic but upon arrival it was rather different and there were no toiletries except for a clear plastic bottle with some soap in the bath. Room was cleaned daily and fresh towels provided. A/C did work without issues. Breakfast was small and simple, and one morning the young man preparing it served the crepes, coffee and milk cold so it was thoroughly disappointing even if it is a complimentary breakfast. Had lot of issues paying for the stay as the machine the owner used only accepted up to 3,000 dh (about 300 euros) in a card transaction and so I had to obtain cash in a bank in the street to pay the difference, so be aware of this issue and bring cash on hand to pay for the stay.

Satisfied

Hotels.com dropped the ball and didn't keep my reservation for them. They still accommodated me at the price I was quoted. I was thankful for that. Very helpful, friendly and welcoming. Personally I would pick a different place because I'm a big tall guy and need a high soft bed. And tv since I'm american lol. Otherwise nice and will get immersed in the culture with this stay.

Very impressed

We weren't sure what to expect as we made our way through the souks, although wasn't that far ( 5 min) from taxi drop. We went down the alley which was well lit to find a pleasant surprise. We were shown our suite which was 2 rooms in one. We were 4 people - kids ages 15/17 They really enjoyed everything from the food down the the WiFi, including the roof top. Clean, organized, attentive, caring and I'd highly recommend this place to get a true family Moroccan feel. They are truly family and we felt that throughout Ernest

Riad Diana was lovely. Clean and the staff was great. Aziza is the cook and such a lovely woman. The mint tea in the afternoon was great. There were only a few, very minor, issues - we had wanted a few beers that were on their menu but there were none. The shower curtain was hard to use and the towel hook was coming out the of wall and in need of repair. Very minor issues and these issues would not keep me from staying here again. It was a great price and the service was wonderful.

Beautiful Riad with Wonderful Staff!

This riad is beautiful and is very well situated. The staff went out of their way to make us feel at home and took excellent care of us. The room was very well appointed and had comfortable beds with high quality linens and towels. The breakfast was amazing. But the best part was the staff...best customer service!!

Lovely Riad, good location

Lovely Riad. Friendly staff. We did get the downstairs room that leads onto the courtyard and were told that this was what we had booked. However, we had specifically attempted to book a different room on hotels.com and not this one as we could easily distinguish the rooms when making our booking as we had also looked at the hotel website. As our printout did not specifically state which floor we were on, we didn't argue when hotel told us we had booked the downstairs room, but would recommend you request upstairs so that you're not right in the courtyard by the entrance. We paid for the riad to collect us from hotel. Pretty pricey comparatively, but as Marrakech first-timers it was definitely worth the hassle it saved. If we returned to Marrakech again we would certainly now find our own way round. Riad is down a little quiet street and provides good respite from the bustling Medina. Did not use terrace as did not seem to have much of a view, so ate out at other local eateries in the vicinity. Very well located for exploring the medina. Overall we had a good stay, lovely interior, but probably would stay somewhere else next time as felt slightly overpriced for what we got.

A great mother and daughters mini break

Riad Diana was a beautiful oasis of calm in the busy/chaotic centre of old Marrakech. It's interior design was stunning but what was really lovely was the warmth/care of it's owners. We stayed for three nights - just the right number of nights in Marrakech. Mint tea, breakfast, glass of wine or massage whenever or where ever you want - a home from home in Marrakech. We chatted to other guests or not, we read or slept, we chilled out. As three blonde hair ladies we really felt safe and protected by our riad - Marrakech itself was more demanding. We felt safe enough in general when we were out and about but it was difficult to pay a fair price for taxis etc and get a smile too. Recommendations - Spend a day in the atlas mountains - use a car and driver organised by riad Go to French quarter - walkable Local restaurant Bahia has the best tagine - basic Go to restaurant Azur for fab Lebanese food - very posh We chose it because of the name - my name but it was a fabulous choice.

Hotel right in the heart of the city

The hotel was very close to the centre and they made us feel very welcome.It was lovely and quiet after the busy centre. The only thing we would like to warn others of is the porters who take your luggage to and from the taxi to the hotel. You need them to show you the way and the hotel arrange this , it is only a few minutes and for this they want at least a 2 Euro tip and if you give them anything else they let you know they are not pleased. Our porter on the return said he wanted 5 Euros so I withdraw my offer of 2 and gave him nothing as a tip. I have told the hotel about this and hope they have sorted it out as it works out an expensive journey from the airport (Which is only about 15 minutes away) as they charge 20 Euros plus you need to tip the driver then the porter.

Great riad, but a tricky walk in to Jma el Fnaa

This is a brand new riad, run by the same people who run the Riad Diana. We had in fact booked the Diana, but were given the Viva as our original room was not available. The staff are fabulous, very hospitable and efficient. The building and rooms (we had #3) are great, and the roof terace overlooks the gardens of the Mamounia. The neighbourhood is quiet and quite upscale - I believe several well-known foreign figures live nearby. The food we had in the riad was the best we had in Morocco. The only drawback is that in order to get to the big square, or the souks, or any of the 'sights' it is necessary to cross 3 big busy main roads - not easy with Marrakchi traffic. An alternative would perhaps be to get a cab - but the distance is not far and that would sem a bit unnecessary... That said we had an excellent stay!

Hotel had very nice staff but nothing spetacular

Over all the staff and service were very nice. The hotel was a bit shabby and dark with the bedding certainly not being 4 or even 3 star quality. the top terrace was nice except for it wasnt always set up due to rain, not the hotels fault. It is down a quiet alley way away from the main streets.

Riad Diana, a wonderful...wonderful time

Riad Diana was an amazing stay for me and my friends. The service was amazing and the staff likewise. The location was perfect since it was right in the heart of the Medina and about a 5-6 minute walk away from jama lfna. Again I would like to thank the staff who helped us find a new riad when our time was out and a special thanks to Abdul Aziz who showed so much friendliness and hospitality and made us really feel at home. Riad Diana has everything you would want for a place to stay, great price, friendly staff, good breakfast and a lovley terrace. I wholeheartedly recommend it.
