    Very friendly and helpful staff. Eccentric location.

    The breakfast was basic and the same on both days. Some small issues with cleaningness, like dirty tea glasses.

    Youssef and the location was fantastic. 5 minute walk to the centre and 10 minute walk to the souks. Traditional breakfast was always served each morning with a smile. Loved our time in Marrakech.

    Really friendly and helpful owner, amazing location and a really good breakfast!

    The room was a bit dusty but all in all not too bad.

    Quiet oasis in the middle of the medina's chaotic alleys. Location is perfect for exploring the medina and still completely quiet at night. Super helpful and friendly host, Youssef even let me stay in a free room after i checked out so i could spend the hottest part of the day in a room with AC.

    Showers could use a curtain - but definitely not an issue to shower without.

    Spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Central location, a few minutes walk to the square. Surprisingly peaceful and quiet given the location.

    The hotel is really well located and it is quiet within the walls of the hotel. The breakfast by lovely Fatima was also great. We also appreciated the warm welcome upon arrival by Youssef and the recommendations for exploring Marrakech. The toiletries provided are also really nice

    We had booked a desert excursion through the Riad, based on a quoted price that included the agreed-upon itinerary and cities to be visited. However, on the night before our early morning departure, we were informed that the price had suddenly changed and were asked to pay an additional €150. This last-minute change was both unprofessional and discourteous, leaving us with a very sour impression at the end of our stay in Marrakech. As a result, we chose not to proceed with the tour to avoid further unpleasant surprises. I would recommend booking only the bed and breakfast services with the Riad and arranging excursions independently.

    Loved everything about R Bensaid, traditional decor, super comfortable, loved the rooftop relaxed terrace. Superb location, 3 min from the square that makes it feel very easy and safe to come back at any time. Youssef the host is amazing, so friendly, hospitablr and helpful, nothing seems impossible to arrange. Thank you for an amazing stay, it felt like home away from home.

    Our family loved this Riad! The rooms, courtyard, rooftop terrace, meals, etc. were all great. The best part was Youssef though, he was very kind and helpful with everything we needed. It was so good we stayed here again on our return through Marrakech.

    Booked into Riad Bensaid for a couple nights. The Riad was close to the main square and easy to find. Youssef was absolutely amazing and took great care to make sure all was well with my stay . The Riad was beautiful with lots of hot water and A/C although not needed at this time. Breakfast was nice consisting of eggs, Moroccan pancakes bread cheese, jam, olives fresh orange juice and coffee. Beautiful roof top to enjoy the sun or tuck away in the covered seating. It’s a great place to stay and I’m sure you will be happy with your choice.

    Riad Bensaid is a charming and authentic retreat in the heart of Marrakech's vibrant Medina. Just steps away from Jamaa El Fna, it offers a perfect blend of tranquility and accessibility. The beautifully renovated riad retains its rustic charm while providing excellent service and amenities. A true gem for anyone seeking a peaceful yet culturally rich experience in Marrakech

    Really enjoyed our stay at the Riad Bensaid! It’s located minutes away from the square and in walking distance to all the main attractions of Marrakesh, whilst tucked away on a quieter road. The courtyard is beautiful, breakfast was nice. The main highlight was the hotel manager / host Youssef who was very friendly, helpful and super lovely overall! If I had to fault anything - our room at the ground floor was a bit humid, but that was the only drawback, and even that wasn’t as bad.

    We went to Marrakech as a group of 8 to celebrate our friend’s birthday, and I think we stayed at the best hotel in the city, Riad Bensaid. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Youssef, in particular, was incredibly supportive in every way. We would like to thank him on behalf of the whole group. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast was quite satisfying. The location was very central, and everywhere was within walking distance.
