There is nothing I could fault with the Riad. All the staff are very attentive to your needs. I would like to thanks the receptionists for sorting out a wheelchair for my dad and a special thank you to the 2 housekeepers for the love and attention towards my parents. Thank you again and I hope to see again. Inshallah!

Charming place allowing pleasant stay

Small but nice rooms. Very charming. It was very pretty. Tooks lots of photos. Very clean. Nice breakfast. Nice roof top dining area. The only issue is it was tricky and uncomfortable to get to especially as a woman. If I was travelling alone I would be really uncomfortable walking back to the hotel at night. I had no problems but I would not feel comfortable walking alone to get back to the property. I would suggest these hotels consider the idea of asking the local government to allow markings on the floors or walls guiding tourists to hotels. This would decrease the fear navigating these areas.

Very nice Riad, but don't get exploited..

This riad is very nice, clean, comfortable and cheap. It is near Gueliz, around 20 minutes walk and about the same distance to the square, Medina area. The only issue with this riad, like so many other riads in Marrakech is that it was a bit difficult to find at first. A local Moroccan wanted to charge me and my brother €14 just to show us where the Riad was, it only took him 10 minutes, but we didn't pay him, as we don't like being scammed.. Please do not pay these ppl, they are exploiting tourists and will continue doing so, until we stop paying them

UBICACION EXCELENTE

El Riad está muy bien ubicado, en un callejon muy proximo a la Plaza Jemma El Fna, 50 metros. Muy limpio y el desayuno, servido en mesa, mas que suficiente. Indicar que tenia la reserva desde el mes de septiembre, hemos estado del 22 al 25 de noviembre, pedi una habitacion con dos camas, me dieron una cama de matrimonio y hasta la tercera noche no me cambiaron. Es lo unico menos bueno, por lo demás Excelente.

Es un hotel bonito el personal es atento las habitaciones son cómodas es una Riad Ubicada en la medina de Marrakech ideal para una experiencia con los locales con su cultura y su forma de vida La única experiencia desagradable fue el cobro de la tasa turística que me parece exagerada para el tipo de hotel cobran 3€ por persona por cada noche , lo que no compagina con el tipo de hotel , ni siquiera los hoteles de países Europeos lo hacen Deberían revisar este detalle El desayuno igual todos los días, igual
