    Welcomed with Moroccan tea and homemade biscuits. Riad very tranquil and relaxing. Breakfast wonderful. Bedroom clean, calm and peaceful. Bathrobes, towels, shampoo and body wash included. Very comfortable bed and linens. Homemade dinner available if wanted. Riad down side street, felt very safe. Staff always on hand for advice about local area and things to see.

    We loved staying here. Lovely quiet location but only a short stroll to the old town square. Very relaxing. Beautiful breakfast - fresh fruit, fluffy pancakes, Pastries & eggs to your liking. Dinner was amazing, rose petals scattered on the table , lovely vegetable Tagine & delicious homemade ice cream. The plunge pool was very nice to cool off in on the hot 40 degree days.

    Good location. Excellent staff. Helpful and knowledgeable.

    No shower. There was a spray hose but no way to attach it to something so you could be hands free.

    Perfect Location. Within walking distance from everything. Breakfast was simple yet delicious. The room was exceptionaly clean. Yassain was very welcoming and helped us arrange a taxi and offered to drop off our postcards at the post office. Would definitely stay here again!!

    The only thing I would suggest is more lights in the bathroom.

    This riad was such a surprise. The moment you step in, it's like a separate world that you will not want to leave. The eating area feels like the setting of Casablanca (the movie): there are two intimate tables by the decorative pool, covered by milk-white table clothes and rose petals, with silver cutlery giving a luxurious touch. The breakfast was out of this world, with simple yet delicious portions of fruits, fresh orange juice and eggs (we could choose among different options!). The yogurt blew our mind. The music choice (mainly jazz) was also on point. The building is so gorgeous. A somewhat colonial vibe and the artistic touch (there are black and white pictures hung everywhere, from the resting areas to the stairs) contribute to make this place so pleasant and peaceful. The rooms were absolutely perfect, with a vanity mirror and an extra large bathroom (with bathtub!). There was even a body cream being offered, together with other toiletry essentials. We thought it was a nice touch. The robes were as soft as clouds and everything was spotlessly clean. The owner and the staff in general are so kind and welcoming, beyond words. We adored the care and attention poured into this hotel, and our only regret is not having stayed longer! We hope the place will never change.

    Nothing at all!

    This was an absolutely stunning riad in a great location, really peaceful and just outside the main hubbub of the medina. It felt like the perfect sanctuary to come back to. Both the breakfast and the dinners were delicious, the staff were very welcoming and friendly (a huge thank you to Abdou!) and the facilities were great - even providing the opportunity to sunbathe on the roof terrace. I would happily return to this riad should I return to Marrakech.

    No suggestions.

    Beautiful Riad! The staff were so helpful and friendly. Booked for an evening meal and delicious meal in a lovely setting. Excellent breakfast too! Great location and we found it easy to navigate to the riad and also walking to main attractions. Local markets nearby were great. Lovely terrace to catch some sun and to have a drink on the upper terrace to watch the sunset.

    We loved everything about the Riad!

    The style and decor of the riad were stunning. It was ideally situated close to shops and amenities. The rose wine served at dinner, delicious! Rawhide, Abdou and Yassine were exceptional general managers - nothing was too much trouble.

    We had a bottle of water on arrival in our bedroom but water was not replenished on the remaining days of our stay. Breakfast the first morning was delicious - fresh fruit, yoghurt, pastries, eggs however there was no variation on the breakfast on the days that followed.

    Pretty place. Staff are exemplary, looked after us warmly in every way. Their booked drivers from the moment we landed and trips. Initially met by Riad staff on the main road, I stepped into this quiet, ambient Riad and thought of the film Casablanca. A centrally bright Riad with different levels and terraces on which to relax and meet, never felt too busy despite being fully booked. Sumptuous, tasteful elegance with traditional touches, wrapped up in contemporary finishes, cleanliness and light. Location is excellent within the Medina walls. Riads' daylight typically comes from above through the centre down and also out on the terraces 2 or 3 flights, boasting views. Also a ground floor bedroom.

    We had a wonderful stay at the Riad. The Riad is set back from the slightly more chaotic main streets and is a tranquil haven. There is a lovely roof terrace with loungers where you can relax away from the hustle and bustle. Rooms were clean and spacious with a large bathroom. The location wasn’t too far from the main attractions and you could easily walk most places in 10 / 15 mins. The staff were exceptional and everyone was welcoming and friendly. Great value for money and a beautiful Riad. Breakfast was also delicious offering pastries, yoghurt, fruit, eggs..

    Breakfast was simple yet filling. Property was is quiet and only has 6 rooms. Other guests were pleasant and engaging. Staff were friendly and attentive.

    Wi-Fi signal on top roof terrace could be stronger.

    The Riad was super elegant and quite.. waking up here was a peaceful bliss! The room was very clean and comfortable, the terrace was really relaxing aswell! The staff was always nice and smiling. We were welcomed with tea and on our day of departure while we had to wait for the taxi we were offered tea again as a perfect farewell!

    Since the Riad is in a small alley, at night seemed a bit unsafe but it was a residential area and there were no real threats. The shower in the bathroom was open which meant that the floor was absolutely wet after shower.
