We spent three wonderful nights at Riad Ilayka and absolutely loved it. The riad is a beautiful historic home tucked away in the Medina — super quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk to everything. Our room was huge, and the bathroom was enormous with the most amazing Moroccan tile work. Every detail made us feel like royal guests! The staff were so kind, gracious, and spoke great English. We felt completely safe and comfortable the entire time. Breakfast on the patio was a lovely way to start each day. It’s no surprise this place is often fully booked — we feel very lucky we managed to get a room.

Great Place to be, I was supposed to be there in 2023 around the time of the earthquake, end up going to Tanger but we was able to come this time. Place is charming and inviting, you will feel like it’s your home away from home. Marrakesh is a cacophony of sounds and voices and but the people are still the best I met. You won’t regret!

Very attentive staff, especially Abdul who was very helpful. The property and the rooms were beautiful. Location was convenient and only 10 minutes walk away from the main square, although the path to the main square can be a bit difficult to navigate - luckily Abdul kindly showed us the way so we didn’t get lost. Overall a great experience and highly recommended.

Abdul was an excellent host. The Riad was well maintained and clean and the breakfast was fantastic. If you are looking for an authentic morrocean experience, this is the place to stay in the heart of the medina. It can be confusing to get to the Riad and it's dark on the walk up to Riad at night so best off staying there in a group, not on your own.

A gem of a riad

Staff could not do enough to help - they are truly wonderful! A beautiful riad with exceptional interiors. Excellent attention to detail and the whole stay felt very special. Would recommend booking the airport transfer with the hotel as you are likely to get very lost without it!

The staff was amazing! And the whole property is beautiful, including the rooms. Note: it is not easy to arrive by taxi. The riad is through the Medina so it was a half-mile walk with our luggage though the market and narrow streets. The hosts always made us feel appreciated, safe, and welcome.
