Absolutely wonderful stay in the Medina, 5 stars!

We can't recommend this riad enough! The customer service from end to end has been excellent, with Moustapha, Jamal and the team being the most welcoming and considerate hosts to us for the whole week. Nothing is too much trouble, from helping us get from the airport to giving local recommendations, and even organising early breakfasts for us when we had trips planned. Truly wonderful service, for that alone we would come back! It was almost a bonus that the riad itself is as beautiful as it is, a real calm oasis in the heart of the Medina. It's a few minutes walk from the main square and some excellent restaurants, and only a short walk to the road should you need a taxi to further out sites. The free breakfast was lovely, different every day, and we looked forward to seeing what treats we had each day! And the terrace is a peaceful area to relax, eat, even read and sunbathe. The cold plunge pool is a wonderful escape from the heat, and the rooms themselves are quiet, comfortable and air conditioned, with lovely bathrooms. We absolutely recommend staying here, amazing value for money, we couldn't fault a thing. We will be back on our next trip to Marrakech, thank you Moustapha, Jamal and the rest of Riad Dar Bayane.

Moustapha and his team were superb. They could not do enough to help us enjoy our Marrakesh stay. The riad itself although only 6 rooms is very nicely decorated. Location is walkable to all major tourist attractions in the medina. Our room was spacious and very clean, with a traditional decor. I must admit we arrived late on our first night as our flight was delayed and Moustapha had arranged a meal for us, which we felt guilty as we didn’t eat much, but the food was traditional Moroccan, and was as good as any other meal we had. Moustapha I think the next morning could sense we were nervous of the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh so sat with us and explained some do’s and don’ts with some great restaurant recommendations (and bars)for which we were super grateful. We had a walking tour guide arranged by the riad too, which was great, highly recommended. We took a trip to the mountains which is a full day, but it gave us a lot of culture and sights we wanted to experience, and not expensive. The riad or tripadviser can tell you all you need to know. The souks and main square are madness. Prepare yourself for this and you’ll be fine. It feels safe, and everyone you meet is very friendly.

We absolutely loved our stay at Riad Dar Bayane. The property itself is gorgeous, just as it looks in photos and is also in an amazing location being only a few minutes away from the main square. Whilst it is so close to everything, it also feels very private and quiet. Moustapha and the staff were incredibly friendly, giving us recommendations and making us feel very well looked after. They even made us a packed breakfast for the airport when we left! Our room was cleaned every day and was spotless. The breakfast provided was also incredible, with a range of Moroccan foods. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back and would definitely recommend! Thank you for such a wonderful stay.

Riad Dar Bayane, is a well maintained wonderful Riad with exceptionally great staff. It is located close to the Medina in Marrakech and is walking distance from most other historic sites. Even so it was still in a quiet location and was very restful to be in. The staff were wonderful and helped us in every way possible, even when we were in a pinch and needed to make adjustments to our bookings they were able to accomodate us easily. The Food here was great as well, worth the price. Would highly recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this charming riad hotel in Marrakech, and I can’t say enough good things about it. The hotel was impeccably clean, and my room felt incredibly cozy and well-maintained. I also loved the location, which was perfect for exploring the city—it’s within walking distance of all the key attractions and some fantastic restaurants. One of the highlights of my stay was the breakfast. Every morning, I enjoyed delicious, freshly prepared food on the hotel’s beautiful rooftop garden, which added a special touch to the experience. However, what truly made my stay memorable was the staff. Every team member was friendly and considerate, making me feel genuinely welcome. I’d particularly like to recognize Moustapha, who took the time to introduce me to the area around the hotel and ensure I was well taken care of. On the day of my early morning check-out, Moustapha went above and beyond by arranging a take-out breakfast for me, so I wouldn’t go hungry before my journey. Overall, this riad provided an exceptional experience, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone visiting Marrakech.

There star accommodation masquerading as four star. Good location and refreshing dipping pool. Basic four star facilities are missing, small fridge, pen & paper, tea / coffee facilities.They do not have a secure luggage store. The remote control was not working in the room I had so the "entertainment" mentioned on the website didn't exist, nor did the restaurant or the 24 hour reception, on the contrary there was rarely anyone around to assist with any requirements. Breakfast is a meagre offering and you cannot get decent coffee, they serve extremely weak Nescafé at lukewarm temperature, and that's if you can find anybody to serve it. Times are inconsistent I gave up after day three and bought Breakfast outside. Check in was a farce , I arrived one hour before check in and was told the room I booked could be ready if I didn't mind waiting however when check in of 1pm arrived I was told I needed to wait longer until 2pm. I was then offered an inferior room to the one I'd paid for, for the first night which I accepted in sheer frustration but didn't receive a refund for the cost price difference. The staff go at a snails pace to suit themselves, and not the paying guest. I did try and feedback during my trip, unfortunately the manager Moustapha has a volatile temper and cannot accept constructive criticism, in his eyes the customer is always wrong and there cannot possibly be any room for improvement. Didn't receive the standard Id paid for, and would not recommend.

Awful experience

Literally the worst experience of any Riad I’ve ever had (and I’m going to Morocco regularly and slept in very modest hotels as well as luxury ones…) Buckle up because this sounds like a horror movie: - Cockroaches in the room when waking up - Bedsheets were dirty (had to change them ourselves) - Used contact lenses and food on the bedside table - Boogers in the shower (no kidding…) - No light in the toilets - No soap - Internet wasn’t working The whole place clearly needs a refresh. On top of this the guy outside the hotel in the street waiting for you to pay the parking is super aggressive and borderline acting like a mafia boss… The poor guy at reception didn’t know how to help because there was no manager in the hotel for most of the days we were in. The hall with the swimming pool was the only thing that looked decent. In which dystopian reality is this a FOUR STARS hotel experience?! Definitely not recommended unfortunately…

Our stay at Riad Dar Bayane was absolutely incredible, and we truly can’t praise it enough. Moustapha and his wonderful team made us feel so welcome, offering a level of hospitality that far exceeded our expectations. Moustapha was an exceptional host, consistently going above and beyond to ensure our stay was the best it could be. His generous assistance, from providing local tips to helping us navigate unfortunate situations with taxis and merchants—despite managing his own busy schedule—was invaluable. We are deeply grateful for his support. The entire staff was incredibly kind, attentive, making our experience feel personal and heartfelt. The Riad itself is beautifully designed, with a rooftop and a few sun beds, seamlessly blending traditional Moroccan charm with modern comforts. The peaceful atmosphere offered the perfect retreat for relaxation in the midst of the Medina. A special mention goes to Jamal’s unforgettable Moroccan mint tea—after trying mint tea all over the city, we can confidently say his was unmatched (even compared to Royal Mansour)! His kindness in offering us tea when we returned to the Riad at night, knowing we had fallen ill before the trip, was deeply appreciated. From the delicious breakfasts to the impeccable service throughout our stay, every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. We can’t wait to return to this hidden gem in Marrakech. Thank you, Moustapha, and the entire team, for making our stay so memorable and unforgettable.
