A Dream Stay at a Riad in Marrakech

Staying at this Riad felt like stepping back in time—a truly magical experience. The design and atmosphere of the house reflected the traditional way families used to live together in one large home, with each room dedicated to a different family. The architecture was stunning, featuring a beautiful front yard and a back yard with a large, serene pool. The Riad had three levels, each uniquely designed with remarkable attention to detail. Every room had its own name and distinctive style, adding a personalized touch to our stay. We chose to stay in two different rooms to fully embrace the experience, and both were absolutely fabulous! Breakfast was included and tailored to our preferences, which was a thoughtful touch. The service was exceptional—special thanks to Mohamed, who truly went above and beyond. He treated us like family, ensuring our stay was perfect and offering invaluable tips to help us explore Marrakech to the fullest. The location was ideal, right in the heart of the old Medina. It was close to all the must-see attractions, including the vibrant souks, Bahia Palace, and Ben Youssef Madrasa. Despite being in the bustling Medina, the Riad was a peaceful oasis—a welcome retreat after a day of sightseeing. I can’t recommend this Riad highly enough. If I ever return to Marrakech, I will definitely stay here again. It was an unforgettable experience that combined tradition, comfort, and exceptional hospitality.

Beautiful riyad. Staff are all wonderful and can't do enough for you. Only stayed one night. Location not quite as central as we would have liked (had to walk a bit farther through not such a nice part of town to get to the local attractions, shops, etc.) but still not far from everything you need. Beautiful decor. Pool and outside dining area were stunning. Didn't go to rooftop as there appeared to be some construction work going on upstairs (perhaps following the earthquake but I'm not sure). Limited choice of food if you are eating there, but nice wines available. Air-conditioning didn't work well in the room we had, but this seemed to just be an issue in that one room, as we were allowed to change before our flight in another room later which had fully working aircon. Owner was simply charming when we met her after breakfast. Everyone helped us in any way they could. Massage we had here was simply the best massage we have ever had (and we've had a lot throughout our travels). Highly recommended unless you want to be a little closer to the market.

Wonderful Riad

Amazing Riad, 15 mins walk from main square. Rooms are all beautiful and staff are incredibly friendly. Worth booking things in advance (dinner, Hammam etc.) the rooftop view from the riad is stunning, and we were sorry it wasn’t quite warm enough to have a dip in their lovely pool.

Brilliant place to stay

The Riad was an oasis after a busy day walking the hot streets of Marrakech. We stayed 4 days and were always treated warmly by every member of staff, they made arranging transport for days out/ excursions simple, which took a lot of stress out of being in a foreign city. The food in the Riad was outstanding and they accommodated for us wanting to eat the meal on the patio area by the pool and created a romantic setting with lighting and a well laid table. The Room was spotless and very elegantly decorated with much needed air conditioning.

An oasis

So beautiful oasis to escape the chaos outside! I have never witnessed such genuine care from the staff even in 5 star hotels. One example: due to a public holiday they knew restaurants were closed so they insisted sharing their own celebration lunch with us and refused to take any money for it.

Great riad. Helpful staff. Better value elsewhere.

Incredibly quiet and comfortable riad. It was very clean and secure. The staff was really nice and helpful but none of them spoke a single word in English which was not a nice surprise. Breakfast was okay, orange juice and breads. The riad is very beautiful with a nice garden. The outside swimming pool is freezing. Very good location, only a 10 min walk from Jemaa el-Fna. Value for money was alright but it was so much more expensive than many other riads so I really have doubts regarding the value for money. Afterwards, we would have booked another cheaper riad as the swimming pool was so cold and the superior room was smaller than we had expected.
